Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

This is how #Kyiv residents survive without electricity and heating after Russian attacks.

Invincibility points are places where people can warm up, rest, charge mobile phones and other devices, use the internet, get hot drinks, and receive basic assistance.

Russia is preparing a new massive strike on Ukraine in the near future - President Zelenskyy.

The forecast temperatures for the next few days are up to -20 degrees Celsius.

About 800 residential buildings in Kyiv are still without heating after the Russian attack last week⤵️

So many people in Kyiv are still without heating,electricity after the Russian attack

No heating means thousands of families (the elderly,the disabled)just freezing in their homes

Russia deliberately launched this attack when the weather got very cold

Europa lässt das zu - trotz aller Hilfe und Unterstützung -, weil der Wille fehlt, aktiv eine russische Niederlage herbeizuführen. Doch ohne eine solche geht der Krieg einfach weiter, hinein ins fünfte Jahr…🤦🏻

Yesterday Elon Musk retweeted "white solidarity is the only way to survive". In our numb overwhelmed media environment it barely made headlines that the world's richest man endorsed blood-curdling white nationalism. My brief writeup for @religiondispatches.org

Kyiv is currently entirely without power and heating after today’s attack. Authorities urged people to leave the city if they can. This is a humanitarian disaster, in case anyone didn’t know

A college philosophy professor in Texas has been told he can't teach about a rather minor philosopher called "Plato" because of new restrictions on teaching about race and gender.

We have become such a silly, stupid country.

no, this is a radical step and radical departure. I wish observers abandoned the simplistic idea that international law has never been relevant to or in the US, or that the US never cared about complying with it; it is not true.

Das 👇🏼 bedeutet es konkret, wenn die USA sich entscheiden, dass das Völkerrecht und die unzähligen darauf basierenden internationalen Verträge und Organisationen für sie nicht mehr zählen. Carl Schmitt lässt schön grüßen.

The Author goes on to talk in the same paragraph about how drones can't replace tanks or IFVs. Except that Ukraine entered this war with a large active duty tank fleet than Germany, France and Italy combined, and let's not even get into the utter disaster that is the UK's vehicle park right now.

Komplettes Rätsel, wie man das Völkerrecht für verfehlt halten kann, weil es auch die Beseitigung von Diktatoren durch fremde Mächte verbietet. Der Mordparagraph verbietet es bekanntlich auch, sehr schlechten Menschen zu töten, trotzdem hält den keiner für falsch

Die sind dead serious. Es wird geschehen, und es wird das Ende der NATO und des „Westens“ sein. Ob Europa dann noch eine starke Idee von sich selbst hat? Oder eher auch gleich zerfällt, getrieben von neuerwachten Nationalegoismen, politischer Dummheit und „Rechtspopulismus“?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO
