Bombshell from the WSJ β Elon Musk ordered Starlink to be throttled, causing devastating hits on Ukraine. Heβs also the single biggest funder of Republican candidates this midterm cycle. Vote for them, and youβre voting for himβand EVERYTHING heβs done to harm American interests.
Russia is now exempt from the Lindsey O. Graham Russia Sanctions Act. The US government is clearly allied with Putin against Ukraine. Vote Republican enablers out.
The Susan Collins corruption scandal is bigger than you think.
Thanks to @propublica.orgβs William Turton, Avi Asher-Schapiro, Molly Redden and Kirsten Berg for the incredible reporting!οΏΌ
Weβre told wind turbines and solar farms are βruining the view.β
But massive data centers consuming land, water, and electricity get a pass.
Somehow only one version of βprogressβ is treated like a problem.
Make it make sense.
Conway: This man is violating his oath in myriad ways each and every day. Impeachment is not an option. It is mandatory. It is required. It is morally, constitutionally, and legally obligated.
Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.
I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.
πΊπ¦βΌοΈ Zelensky on Putin's statement that he wants to see Ukraine successful:
"I don't know what he told Trump, but there is zero faith in these words. If what he did in Bakhmut, Vovchansk, Chasiv Yar, Pokrovsk now is called success, then let them build such success in Russia."
During a press meeting, the President said Ukraine is open to peace talks in any format or country. However, Budapest isnβt ideal due to the controversial "Budapest Memorandum," where the U.S. was one of the so-called guarantors.
All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why arenβt you celebrating the ceasefire??
Because we knew it wouldnβt last. But even I didnβt think itβd be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.
On October 18th, millions of brave Americans will stand up and peacefully protest against the authoritarian disease metastasizing under Donald Trump.
No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings. @gtconway.bsky.social
Russian state media published an article titled: βNo other option: no one should remain alive in Ukraine.β
This is how Russia claims to want peace.

1/ Corrupt Russian officers often extort large bribes for not sending men into what are likely to be suicidal assaults. Men are hidden from inspectors to prevent exposure. A Russian soldier explains how the scam works; "the attitude is like towards cattle," he says. β¬οΈ
This powerful message: βI did the research and found out I was wrong.β
Iβm not going to say much more except please take the time to watch. Then send it around to family and friends, no matter their political persuasion.
Part I
I donβt care what side of the aisle youβre on, the President of the United States even joking about revoking someoneβs citizenship should be met with universal condemnation.
Weβre calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane βAlligator Alcatrazβ detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.
From the buildup of production inside Russia to the growing presence of Russian forces in Mali; from the deployment of Cubans to deployment of new units - our small team works to obtain and analyse this data. As we enter July, we ask you to support us:
Not by accident.
Not by mistake.
By the evil genocidal intention.
russia is casually erasing home by home in Ukraine. And it's allowed to continue this savageness with impunity.
Crude oil prices have been climbing steadily since May, nearing the $80 per barrel, driven by escalating conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran in the Middle East - a key oil-exporting region. If the trend holds, it could boost Russiaβs economy and help sustain its war effort
As the world focuses on the escalating war between Israel and Iran, the war in Ukraine has not paused. Russia continues its brutal campaign, targeting civilians. These images, taken and shared with us by volunteer Jana, show the aftermath of recent strikes in Pokrovsk area
1/ The Russian army is sending one-armed and one-legged soldiers into assaults, according to a wounded Chechen soldier who has been assigned to a so-called 'cripple battalion'. He says that the men's fitness status is systematically being falsified. β¬οΈ
Autopsies of Ukrainians returned from Russian captivity reveal skull fractures, starvation, disease, and signs of torture. Some bodies were mutilated or unrecognizable.
AP reported on one such case π
(1/8)
In #Odesa, an inclusive resource center that provided services to thousands of children with disabilities was destroyed by the Russian attack.
Two animals participating in canine therapy (a method of treatment and rehabilitation using specially trained dogs) were killed as a result of the shelling.
My country, Army, city (and me) continue to fight and do everything in our power to bring peace to our land.
I really have no idea how we're holding up in all that. My heart breaks for Ukrainian kids the most.
Last night was so difficult.
During the night and in the morning, we message family, friends. We ask them: How are you? They reply: we're alive.
We go to work. Kyiv stands tall. Tomorrow is a day of mourning for all the victims of last night.
In todayβs Vatnik Soup, Iβll introduce the main themes of Russian disinformation on TikTok. Each day, there are thousands of new videos promoting pro-Kremlin narratives and propaganda.
Itβs worth noting that Russians can only access European TikTok via VPN.

Yesterday, I met with a 12 year old boy in Oxnard, CA. His mom and dad have been fieldworkers for over 20 years.
ICE agents snatched his parents from the fields and left this boy alone with no clue when heβll see them again.
A 6th grader.
βICEβ as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said thisππΎ
MAN AT CHURCH: βWe donβt want this in our property.β
ICE: βThe whole country is our property.β
No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?
Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.
Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. Sheβs lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.
