This is Chicago Pastor David Black. Trump’s fascist thugs targeted and then shot him in the head with a pepper bullet because he was praying outside an ICE facility.

Resist this kind of government violence from becoming America’s new normal.

Horrible, heartbreaking story! Another example of why the savage russians must not be allowed to remain on a inch2 of Ukrainian land - and that those responsible must be hunted down & prosecuted for their crimes.

No future but 👇

Russia lost 17,000 tanks in three years. Only 2,478 remain in storage—nearly all badly rusted and needing expensive restoration before they can fight.

The timing? Russia just shifted back to tank warfare after 282,000 infantry casualties.

Russia’s last 2,500 tanks are in very sorry shape

Russia's oldest tanks—some 50+ years old—are all that stand between Moscow and forced mobilization

Tennessee high explosives factory blast and the explosion at the jet fuel section of Chevron refinery in California, both within a week, follow a pattern Putin employed in Europe in 2014 w.wiki/FeE6

Investigate them NOW as sabotage. Start congressional hearings now, not 10 years from now.

The russians know that if their planes were to end up in a "dogfight" against Western F-35s, they would be shot down before even knowing any F-35s were around.

russia IS inferior in technology!

What is RFK Jr. going to say about Trump getting a COVID booster?

Nothing, because he and his family also take vaccines.

They just don't want Americans to have access to them

Triple terror.

In the Chernihiv region, a russian drone targeted a service car of engineers who came to repair an energy facility after russia's previous attack — killing two workers and injuring three.

When rescuers arrived, russians shelled them too.

Unspeakable horror. Don't look away.

Friends,

Winter is coming. Russian attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure will increase.

Russia has ramped up drone production and is changing its attack tactics. There will be blackouts in winter. #Kyiv will be Russia’s main strategic and symbolic target⤵️

Militarising kindergartens in russia - the society is sick and in a death spiral culturally.

Cadet groups are being massively opened in Russian kindergartens.

“.. Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial.”

Good - but a timely reminder - Russia has already occupied parts of Moldova - Transnistria!

Time to kick them out, isn't it?

It's not China paying U.S. tariffs, but those in the U.S. importing goods from China - bottom line U.S. consumers if the importers choose to send the entire bill to the consumer.

Adding U.S. tariff is just another word for (additional) federal tax.

Democracy isn't only about freedom of speech & the right to do whatever you want!

Democracy must also imply mechanisms to protect itself & its citizen from abuse by others.

=> anti democratic forces, like Trump, Musk, Durov & others MUST be denied the right to overflow internet with harmful lies!

Exactly @buziashvili.bsky.social !

We (🇪🇺🇬🇧🇳🇴) must acknowledge the obvious - 🇷🇺 is at war against all of us, but currently lacks the capacity to launch a full scale war beyond 🇺🇦, which has become a black hole for the 🇷🇺 military.

The leader of the Nobel Peace Prize Comittee said the key words about this yrs. winner:

"keeps the flame of democracy burning - amidst a growing darkness"

=> Trump was never a realistic candidate!

This isn't only about silencing weapons, but about freedom & democracy - i.e. being anti-Trump!

I have seen too much evil. Good people died.
Blood. Screams. Eyes of survivors of torture and rape.

Evil burned everything inside me left only emptiness. This emptiness fills only when I see evil dying.

This is no longer anger. It's something else.
