These idiots haven’t been paying attention. Do they seriously think Trump is going to lift a finger to help Ukraine? If Ukraine is really that important, find a microphone and tell the world what a raging asshole Trump is being

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Members of the US Congressional delegation in Kyiv have called for expanding Starlink's capabilities for Ukraine. In their opinion, this will strengthen Kyiv's position on the battlefield and help force Russia to negotiate.

Seems to me the logical course of action for Ukraine is to target Russian refineries even more aggressively, to make it as difficult as possible to build up stocks of winter diesel.

Martsinkovich conveniently omits to mention the damage done to Russian refineries since 2023, damage that is still relentlessly ongoing. So the situation today is not the same as three years ago. Also DT does not ”need diesel”, he needs the price of diesel to fall. This ‘deal’ will not achieve that.

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot by ICE 10 days ago. The bullet is still lodged in his back. He’s been forced to sleep on the floor and hasn’t been given medication, according to his attorney. Now DHS is claiming he assaulted an agent. Can we trust anything DHS says given its track record?

It’s hard to believe that Freyja, the first Icelandic foal born in Patagonia, is already 4 years old. That little tuft between her ears is exactly the same as it was the day she was born. Time moves quickly. Live slowly. Love deeply. Savor every moment.

Federal corporate political spending has already reached nearly $650 MILLION ahead of the midterms, according to Public Citizen. That’s an all-time high — and we’re still months away from Election Day. Big Money is the real threat to “election integrity.”

The House voted to condemn “socialism” earlier this week. Listen, I’ve been in and around politics for over 50 years. I grew up during McCarthyism and the “red Scare” of the 1950s. I’ve seen all of this fear-mongering before. Here’s what’s really going on.
