The yellow box in left pic shows zone south of the Seym & W of the currently Ukraine-occupied Kursk region that'll likely become entirely Ukraine occupied soon. Russians just tried to pontoon into this zone & take Ukraine-zone by surprise but were, it seems, thwarted by HIMARS!

Wow. You're right. Darn good point. Thx for highlighting this hypocrisy.

The Venn diagram for people saying that Pretti shouldn’t have brought a gun to that type of situation, and the people calling this guy a patriot hero, is a perfect circle.

I'll settle, for now, to simply get the impeachment of AG Pam Pondi under way?! We don't need to wait till next Nov b/c we can likely get the necessary majority of the House ANYWAY from GOP defectors?! Even if the Senate isn't likely, pre-Midterms, to give a ⅔ vote, do it!

Ro is really distinguishing himself, wonder if he could or would run for Pres? I believe he could be a decent candidate, despite the exceptional prejudice and bigotry of US voters

The DOJ’s document dump of hundreds of thousands of pages failed to comply with the law authored by @RepThomasMassie and me. One document, 119 pages of Grand Jury testimony, was completely redacted. I explain what is missing and what the survivors and their lawyers are still…


Recall when Sloviansk was liberated in the Spr of 2014 after Putin's premature attempt to grab Donetsk & Luhansk. & here we are, 11 yrs later, still holding Russia at bay, if barely. "At Sloviansk direction clashes yesterday - General Staff of AFU reports" liveuamap.com/en/2025/9-nove…

From about 50 - 55' Trump goes completely NUTS, ranting about this & that, lying repeatedly, one lie after another. Many other parts are appalling to boot. Not sure if the 50-55' part is the cut rant often cited, but it well could be! Last nite's cut "interview" was unbearable.

See President Donald J. Trump's FULL interview on @60Minutes — all 73+ minutes, without the network's edits and cuts. WATCH IN FULL:



He's an ignorant liar?!

Is JD Vance a liar or just woefully ignorant when claiming that Democrats want to give health benefits to undocumented immigrants?

Dumb and dumber talking about all the dumb people running things in "this" country?? Doesn't he realize HE'S running this country?! I guess not. (BTW, I've fled to Bluesky, just in case anyone wants to know where everyone who's not surgically attached to Elon has gone?!)

Trump: "We've got a lot of stupid people in this country running things."

A picture is worth a 1000 words!? For many, this aphorism implies quantity is linked to veracity, but beware a pic can say much yet distort much?!

There is no joy in this With @bbcnews forced to take down a documentary because the star was the son of a Hamas minister And now, most legacy media need to own up to using deceitful photos We can't possibly trust a media that just keeps lying to us. x.com/NYTimesPR/stat…

We have appended an Editors' Note to a story about Mohammed Zakaria al-Mutawaq, a child in Gaza who was diagnosed with severe malnutrition. After publication, The Times learned that he also had pre-existing health problems. Read more below.

Don't forget that every step of the way is predicted by Tramp to be "in 2 weeks"!?

again and again and...



Ok. Fine. Now that we've agreed that ur not to blame for the halt, Mr Tramp, what's holding up the lifting of the halt?!

Congress wants answers here. Did Under Secretary Colby do this on his own without approval? The President said he was not notified nor did he approve the halt in weapon shipments to Ukraine. theconcis.com/p/the-call-the…

Turkey: Bayraktar Kızılelma (Red Apple) combat drone is expected to enter production this year. It will be powered by Ukraine's AI-322F turbojet engine, allowing supersonic speed. Impossible to imagine a scenario in which Ukraine doesn't get these drones to fight against Russia.



After 15yrs, & 50K tweets, beginning w/my trying to support the Greens in Iran, & onto the Arab Spring, the end of Gaddafi, the end of Syria's Assad & support for Ukraine's defense, I have flown to Bluesky since Sep due to Musk's manipulations: @edfranks.bsky.social. X is flawed!


These are PUTIN's thugs. Ivan and his boy PM are simply Putin's stooges. Putin must be stopped or this kind of fascism will persist & grow!

JUST IN: TV Pitveli journalist Maka Chikhladze is thrown on the ground by the Titushky (regime thugs) after putting their hand on her mouth, and the cameraman is attacked. #terrorinGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests
