Trump is considering lifting sanctions against Russia's government investment fund, run by Dmitriev. Trump Jr. was just on a Mongolian hunting trip, paid for by the same Russian oligarch who paid for his wedding. Do ANY of the US checks and balances still actually function??

Nothing says "the media manufactured the Russia hoax" than going on a hunting trip with one Russian oligarch right after another Russian oligarch had paid for your wedding.

Viktor Orban vying desperately to regain his previous title of the world's greatest asshole.

UPDATE: The DOJ is asking a federal appeals court to reject California's motion to dismiss their lawsuit stopping state election officials from counting tens of thousands of ballots. The request comes just hours before oral arguments in the case are set to begin.

Also looking prescient.

‼️Kremlin aide Ushakov just confirmed what was widely believed, the US agreed to force Ukraine to capitulate: "Before, it seemed after Anchorage, that the U.S. administration might be able to dictate something and force Kyiv to comply. But so far, this hasn't really worked out"

This is why it's dangerous to give rich people so much power over our lives. Sometimes, they are appallingly ignorant. The Nazis added the word "socialist" to their name purely as propaganda to appeal more to workers. But the party--and Hitler--hated real socialists and communists.

JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

Trofimov is correct: the key takeaway from the FT's blockbuster story is that the Trump family and cronies were exercising direct private control over this massive Alaska project, and they were using that control to benefit the Kremlin. Plain as day. But NYT couldn't understand what was happening.

Trump takes money from polluters to exempt them from EPA emission rules and appoints lobbyists from industry to regulate themselves. The corruption here is staggering. POTUS is taking money to poison Americans and arguing national security to do it.

Things you contemplate when your administration is definitely operating within the law.

statt Trumps ballsaal

angeblich gibt es einen neuen us-"friedens"vorschlag

❗️Trump says Musk has lifted Starlink speed restrictions in Ukraine, but Ukrainian Defense Ministry sources told hromadske there is still no confirmation. As of the morning of October 23, troops continued to report Starlink/Starshield connection loss at speeds of 161 km/h. #Ukraine

The US government is literally for sale to the highest bidder.

Given Jon Ossoff is right, some authorities will have a lot of work to do.

❗️POLITICO reports Russia has launched a covert online influence campaign ahead of the US midterms targeting both Democrats and Republicans supportive of Ukraine. Lawmakers say Moscow is using AI to spread disinformation faster and undermine trust in US institutions. #Russia

Really, @derstandard.at ?

Ukraine says Russia has prepared an international information operation called "Telemost" for 15:00, aimed at accusing Ukrainian forces of crimes against civilians in occupied territories while concealing Russian crimes, including in Oleshky. #Ukraine

Wie funktioniert russische Propaganda? Wer sind die Köpfe dahinter? The Insider hat nachgeschaut. theins.press/en/inv/298359

OTD in 1994 The "Agreement between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Moldova on Matters Related to Jurisdiction and Mutual Legal Assistance / 14th Army Withdrawal" was signed in Moscow. It required Russian forced to leave Moldova within 3 years. 32 years later they are still there.

Report from @csis.org: the Alabuga drone factory is 4-country joint effort: 🔹Iran provided the design and manufacturing expertise 🔹North Korea supplies mass labour 🔹China supplies batteries, engines, electronics, etc 🔹Russia built the factory and fires the drones at Ukraine

❗️WSJ reports Elon Musk personally ordered a slowdown of the military-grade Starlink service used by Ukraine, leaving some offensive and interceptor drones virtually useless. Musk and Trump later discussed the move; one source says they had also discussed it beforehand. #Ukraine

I have been trying to think of what Trump’s hideous “ballroom” project reminds me of — and I finally have it — it is Nicolai Ceausescu’s infamous and unfinished House of the People in communist Romania, which also brought awfulness to a lovely downtown.

Elon is such a two-faced lying piece of sh*t.

The Trump regime lets Ukraine even further down

As Canada awaits the Alberta separation referendum results, let’s remember how stupid this all is. Huge public money spent on a Russian & American-fuelled separation movement for an awfully-written and badly managed unbinding referendum on whether to hold a binding referendum that would be illegal.

Wenn die CDU das nächste Mal auf die Linkspartei zeigt und von SPD und Grünen verlangt, sich wegen angeblichem Antisemitismus zu distanzieren, könnte man sie fragen, wann denn eigentlich das CDU-Mitglied Vosgerau aus der Partei geworfen wird und warum es noch nichtmal ein Ausschlussverfahren gibt.

There was no warning from the U.S.about the first Russian ballistic missile strike on Ukraine last night -Yurii Ihnat,head of the Communications Department of the Air Force Command During the attack at around 11 p.m.on October 18,Ukrainian radar systems detected the missiles independently,Ihnat said

People are not giving Obama, Biden or Merkel the credit they deserve for allowing Russia to hang on long enough for Donald to surrender to us.

false, for his own interest only🤬🤮💩

To verify this, several vehicles equipped with Starlink were sent to EU countries. In areas where driving at such speeds is permitted, the vehicles reached speeds exceeding 180 km/h - and the connection continued to work. "We have the relevant records and evidence.

Zelensky says the easing of sanctions will keep going, calling the diesel deal just a first step. He argues this won't stop Putin, who instead feels emboldened by such support, and it certainly won't end the war.

TELEGRAPH: Trump & Musk conspired to throttle Starlink and make Ukraine more vulnerable to Russian attacks — then Musk tried to blame only Trump. Putin wins again, as usual. Russia was never a hoax. www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...

The last time Trump criticized Putin was July 31st 2025, 443 days ago. The last time Trump criticized Zelenskyy is measured in hours, not days. The US taking the side of the aggressor is a truly terrible global strategic signal, and will destabilize the world for years to come.

❗️Elon Musk approached Trump with the idea of slowing Starlink in Ukraine, The Telegraph reports, citing four sources. One source said Trump agreed, clearing the way for the Pentagon to restrict Starshield. Trump and Musk have both denied responsibility for the slowdown. #Ukraine

Russia dictates terms to the United States&circumvents sanctions. The United States has failed to achieve its strategic objective toward Russia.Under current conditions,Russia creates far more real problems&financial costs for the United States than strategic benefits Why save Russia yet again?

I hope most Americans are as shocked as the rest of the world is that Trump says Zelenskyy destroyed Ukraine, not Putin and Russia; that he consistently blames Ukraine and ignores Russian war crimes; and that he is trying to force Ukraine's surrender to those who would murder us.

Brilliant work from Morten Mørland.

The Washington Post obtained the list of donors funding Trump’s ballroom, that includes Apple ($25m), the Adelsons ($25m) and the Winklevoss twins ($5m). Not on the list: Trump, who said the ballroom would be paid “100% by me and some friends of mine”. Gift link.👇 wapo.st/4yiUDPx

In a German court a Ukrainian soldier is accused of being in international waters when he attacked a legitimate target of war that was entirely owned by the Russia state. You wonder why Kremlin thinks West will kneel to use eventually.

When Trump announced his diesel deal with Putin last week, he said Russia would immediately supply 300k tons of diesel. Meanwhile, Russia says negotiations are underway and nothing has shipped. Once again, Trump is played for a fool and looks like a chump in front of the world.
