This is *not* the sort of thing you see in this era, which makes it all the better that we are seeing it this weekend.

Tennessee people, vote for this lady this week. She's cool and she puts the country perilously close to having a single check and/or balance.

Ok, this is huge. Two russian shadow fleet tankers were reportedly designated under the most effective hellish sanctions package — right there in the Black Sea.
But yeah "give up now you have no cards."

These horrific, unending nights are nearly too much to bear. We could never have endured them alone. Our strength comes solely from the shining light of your hearts, the warmth of your embrace, and the unwavering kindness in your eyes, dear Ukrainians and friends around the world.

Rescuers in the Kyiv region freed a kitten from the rubble where it was stuck after the russian attack.
The little one had been pinned beneath a heavy concrete slab and was unable to escape by itself.

A new mural has appeared in Ternopil, dedicated to children killed in Russia’s attack.
The artwork, showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile, was created by artist Andriy Yermolenko. He described it as “a cry for help to the global community.”

So I had an image pretty close to this in my head last night.
I think it came out ok. I tried to get that perspective, pinned back look for her wings.
But overall I like my HAWKGIRL!

For anyone who wants to read more, he's the 2020 version of JP 5-0: Joint Planning. It doesn't include the change 1 from summer 2024. All that did was make a mess of the chapter on the operational environment (OE) & make that chapter unreadable. So you're not missing anything.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Did someone mention Honduras?
Roger Stone is promoting Prospera, a “Freedom City” (per Stone) in Honduras backed by Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen (who once tweeted that “anti-colonialism has been economically catastrophic for the Indian people…”) & Balaji Srinivasan (author of The Network State: How to Build a New Country). 1/
