Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.
1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.
2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.
3. Russia pays everyone for everything.
4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.
Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Hey everyone. Hate that I have to post this. My dog was hit by a car tonight and suffered a shattered leg and damage to her intestines. Surgery and medical expenses are roughly $20,000. It’s been a rough year and anything helps.

this should be the question asked at every Democrat press appearance. "what are you personally taking away from the unambiguous success of Mamdani's campaign and the clear fact that his ideas are record-breakingly popular, in terms of how to attract and keep your own voters"
Mamdani didnt just win, he got over 50% of the vote. They cant even claim Cuomo woulda won if Sliwa dropped out. Its a victory thsts undeniable, and yet I suspect we will see new levels of centrist lets be more bigoted dems clownery to try and say that the party shouldnt take Mamdani's lead.
