🔴 A Russian drone strike has compromised Chornobyl’s protective shield.

The IAEA says the New Safe Confinement suffered damage in February that left it unable to fully perform its core safety functions.

The Trump regime is not respecting "the will of the people"
62% of Americans want Ukraine to win the war against Russia, and 64% support continued US arms deliveries, up 9 points from last year. Support has grown in both parties: 59% of Republicans and 75% of Democrats back it, according to the latest Reagan Institute survey.

I’m deeply concerned by reports of a second deportation flight to Iran, including vulnerable individuals who could face persecution by the brutal Islamic Republic regime. The Trump Administration must follow the law and uphold due process for Iranian asylum seekers.

Under Trump, 23 people have died in ICE custody and thousands are held in horrifying conditions with reports of little food, overcrowding, and denied medical care.

I’m supporting the Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act to ensure the basic rights of those in custody.

Ukrainians had to spend last night in the subway again. This time, on Saint Nicholas Eve.

There’s something incomprehensibly evil about wanting to murder people. It’s symbolically sadistic to do it on holidays.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino now admits that when he peddled bogus conspiracy theories about the pipe-bombs case, he didn’t know what he was talking about.

“I was paid in the past for my opinions,” he said.

I’m not sure if he’s fully thought this through. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

We saw a similar situation in Brazil. When X/Twitter was fined & subsequently suspended, it was not an act of censorship; rather, the Supreme Court was enforcing a law passed in 2014- a widely known and long-standing piece of legislation that platforms have been required to follow for over a decade.
Don't let anyone tell you that the Commission's DSA enforcement against X is about speech or censorship.

That would, indeed, be interesting. But this is just the EU enforcing some normal, boring laws that would get bipartisan support in the U.S. (I bet similar bills *have* had that support.) 1/

As predicted, the Trumpian U.S. government is defending the tech platforms that have lined up behind it, accusing the EU of “censorship”, even though its fine of X has nothing to do with anything remotely resembling censorship, even with their twisted definitions of the term.
