The Seattle Times' Horsey drew this cartoon last year, but it obviously reveals an enduring truth worth remembering.

The cost of diesel For @rawstory.com

The other feedback loop: 1) Putin sends Iran billions to buy Sahed drones to murder Ukrainian civilians. (2) Iran uses the profits from the deal to build more drones and missiles that they use to kill American service members and attack our allies. (3) Trump defends Putin helping Iran.

Trump is waiting weeks for one Russian diesel cargo while America exports the same amount roughly every five hours. The Russian cargo is 40K tonnes. During its 3 week voyage, at the U.S. diesel export rate reported by Reuters, America will export roughly 3.5 to 4.2 million tonnes of its own diesel

You know, Elon, if you just paid your taxes, we could give those kids food and healthcare, things far more valuable than stock in a government-welfare-dependent company that is bound to go bankrupt eventually.

Just a few hours ago, Ukraine's 1027th Anti-Aircraft Missile and Artillery Regiment has released a compilation of new footage showing German-delivered Gepard SPAAGs intercepting a number of aerial targets in Ukraine both at night and day. /161

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

The USA have sacrificed their soft power, dignity, reputation, the trust of their allies and their remaining fiscal responsibility on the altar of Donald Trump’s bloated ego. Billionaire tech CEOs playing along with the “Superintelligence” idiocy: Emperor’s New Clothes Vibes.

Ukraine is knocking Russian refineries offline; Trump just opened a market for their diesel. Russia will supply 300,000+ tons immediately, with millions more planned. The U.S. eased sanctions on Russian diesel. Trump has repeatedly pressed Ukraine to stop hitting Russian refineries.

Companies linked with Trump's two eldest sons have received over $6 billion in government contracts. Some are established companies that invited the sons to join their Boards, but more are new start-ups with zero experience that are *magically* receiving massive contracts. Corruption gone wild.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

In an AFU interview on current air defence which has been published yesterday, a Ukrainian soldier from the 1027th Anti-Aircraft Missile and Artillery Regiment stated that the German/US-delivered Gepard/Cheetah SPAAGs have not lost effectiveness against jet-powered Shahed UAVs.

Exclusive: The Armed Forces of Ukraine recently received their eleventh IRIS-T SLM fire unit financed by the German government as part of its military assistance for Ukraine. This represents a significant boost to Ukraine’s air defences ahead of winter. 🔗 deaidua.org/news/2026/10...

The FP-7 Pelican ballistic missile has passed its first combat test, Zelenskyy says. So far, there’s no objective confirmation.

Siri, show me the deliberate destruction of eight decades of American-led international diplomacy and cooperation in one photograph:

I served in multiple authoritarian states, both communist and otherwise--Russia, Vietnam, Iraq, the Sultanate of Oman, and Ukraine before the Orange Revolution brought in democracy. One common thread among all of them is government spending on propaganda to glorify the dictator/sultan.

For just a moment, the world saw their true nature. This is a real photo. F*cking chilling.

One particular photo of the big attack by democratic Ukraine on fascist Russia's capital Moscow this morning has inspired an epic meme.

Moscow built layered air-defense rings around the capital; Ukrainian long-range weapons still reached its oil refinery. ㅤ The Kapotnya refinery was hit overnight and a major fire followed. ㅤ Moscow is no longer watching Ukraine’s refinery campaign from a distance.

For those framing the Greenland deal mistakenly as a „win“ for Trump, remember where things stood in January 26, when Danish military was preparing to foil a US invasion. Nobody in 🇩🇰, 🇬🇱, in Europe, and nobody in NATO will ever forget this. Something cracked inside the transatlantic alliance.

Denmark & Greenland have figured out that all they have to do is allow Trump to brag and he'll give them anything. Trump is now touting his "amazing" new agreement, that is no different than the 1951 Greenland Defense Agreement, under which the US could have unlimited bases. 1/2

On this day in 1934, a Czechoslovak Jewish boy was born. On the 6 Mar 1943 he was deported to Theresienstadt with his mother and two brothers (13 & 11) and on the 19 Oct 1944 to Auschwitz where they were murdered on arrival. His name was Valtr Seidel Support @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social
