🚨 Russia claims the US promised it Ukrainian territory.

📍 It isn’t America’s land to give away.

📍 Europe 🇪🇺didn’t ask DC to lead talks.

🔥 Ukraine did not ask DC to trade borders. 🇺🇦

📍 Why is pressure never on Russia to leave?

👉 Stop enabling Moscow, Washington🇺🇸.

A historic decision.

All EU member states — without exception — have agreed to use frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk noted that while consensus exists, some countries will continue pushing to maximize their own guarantees.👇

It's so true. At least 1/3 up to half of Americans just don't fucking get it. Voting against your best interests to install a weak, petty, vengeful racist asswipe is truly stupid.

And supporting a child-raping pedophile, unforgivable.

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

@barackobama.bsky.social Promises of increased devolved powers if we voted to stay in UK reneged upon within hours of the vote. Taken out of the EU despite voting to remain. Devolved powers systematically stripped. Resources plundered. Have you changed your mind yet?

It’s exactly this kind of dismal, prejudiced bollox from the Daily Mail that’s got us into the ruinous Brexit mess we’re in. What a moronic response to us rejoining Erasmus and all the benefits that brings. If they’re really worried about cost, they should push to cancel Brexit altogether.

I consider myself a fairly patient person, but I can't listen to another second of this ridiculous, wheezing idiot. I'm done. Nothing he is saying aligns with anything that is really happening in the real world.

Three minutes in to this Presidential Address to the Nation and I remember why I don't listen to any of Trump's addresses or read any of his tweets.

Unrepentant lies, attacks to his opponents, and just angry yelling. This is a poor and pathetic caliber person we've made president. Yikes.

Orban is pleading publicly with his boss Putin not to punish him in a letter he wrote after the EU overrode his veto on frozen Russian assets.

He also said Hungary's "loyal cooperation" with the EU on sanctions was over.

Is he suggesting he was loyally cooperating before?🤔

The interview was recorded, as most good journalists will do. Fake news hides the crimes and truth from the people; they don't expose it.

Fox is a prime example of Fake News and the White House Press person is just another example of Fake News and Projection.

MPs laughed when Jake Richards dismissed Jeremy Corbyn’s request for a meeting on the Palestine Action hunger strikers.

Laughed.

This is who we’re governed by, people entrusted to represent a nation, yet so insulated by power they respond to human suffering with indifference and mockery.

The hero who disarmed one of the terrorists in Sydney turned out to be 43-year-old Ahmed al-Ahmed — a fruit shop owner and father of two.

He was shot twice and is currently in hospital. He is scheduled to undergo surgery.

He had no experience with weapons of any kind.

Allowing generations of Tory and Labour politicians power over us has led us into a very dark place. Greed and corruption left to fester in our lives can only end one way. If Farage gets in the darkness will probably be here to stay. Anyone voting for Farage is inviting trouble into all our lives.
