1/ Mobilised Russian soldiers complain that they have not been paid this month. The reason isn't clear, but it may be part of an ongoing campaign to force them to sign contracts to make them permanent soldiers. ⬇️

Deeply moved by the resilient spirit of Los Angeles, from Altadena to the Palisades, as families who lost everything keep pushing forward.
Grateful to Foothill Catalog and Habitat for Humanity for helping survivors rebuild. So much more to do, and we won't stop until the job is done.

Goddammit. Don't ask her to commit to "look into his case". That's the same as "I'll take it under advisement" which is the same as, "I won't do shit." TELL HER: "We expect to see him brought back to this country by the end of this week, with no further efforts to deport him."

▪️The attack was planned over 18 months. It involved 117 FPV drones;
▪️It was originally scheduled for Victory Day (May 9), but the truck drivers got drunk, so everything had to be postponed;

🇺🇦 Syrskyi: For us, every citizen and soldier is our highest value. We don't fight for ruins and building foundations. When defense loses all meaning, I give the command, and we withdraw units to save our soldiers.
We'd rather lose 200-300 meters than the life of one of our soldiers.

Authoritarian regimes often work by co-opting people into their crimes and thus giving them a vested interest in maintaining the regime lest crimes get punished. Old as the hills. Do none of you study history?

Wounded Ukrainian soldier being evacuated by a ground drone.
It gets hit by a Russian drone, but the wounded person is fine. The credit is given to the "anti-fragmentation blankets" provided for free by M-TAC.
The soldier is reported to be alive and well.

None of us are made safer by deporting a 19-year-old, law-abiding college student who was returning home to Austin for Thanksgiving. Ignoring a federal court’s order, ICE wrongfully rushed to deport her in order to meet the Trump regime’s quota. Any Lucia’s nightmare is our community’s loss.
ICE deported Austin college student at lightning speed to circumvent courts
Legal experts say Any Lucia Lopez Belloza's case reflects a broader pattern of fast-tracked removals under the Trump administration.
