RUSSIA IS UPSET BY AMERICAN SANCTIONS

From calling them an act of war to lambasting Trump as a Russian enemy, the sanctions have not gone down well. Add to that the 19th round of EU sanctions which adds dozens of fake companies and oil tankers to the list as well as cutting off all remaining

“It all happened in a second. He ran in and said, “I’m sorry, I have an order.”
I didn’t even understand anything, he just opened fire.”

- Ukrainian woman Olga describes the day the Russians killed her husband, her 2 sons, and her neighbor in Zbanivka, Donetsk Oblast.

In such a vast and rugged landscape, both untamed and magnificent, you start to understand how small every human concern truly is in the face of timeless earth.

Imagine standing on the rim of an ancient volcano, looking out across a vast, otherworldly landscape. From the edge of Hverfjall crater in northern Iceland, the view unfolds in layers of ash-gray slopes, streaked with hints of ochre and moss-green where light briefly touches the barren earth. The terrain stretches toward distant ridges and mountains softened by mist and shadow, under a sky that shifts between blue and clouded gray - a scene both desolate and breathtaking, where fire and ice have shaped every curve and color.

In the west the sky unfolds
Its canvas brushed with pinks and golds
Furrowed rows lie beneath
Once golden spires of summer
An emptiness, a sacred pause
Where autumn’s breath In silence waits
A moment bound by Nature’s laws
Soon the frost will take its place

The photo is of Golden hour skies over a cornfield in Dundee, Michigan. The sky is dark blue-gray at the top. Wispy almost fuchsia clouds can be seen against the darker clouds. Below these are lighter blue, yellow, and white clouds above the sun, which is just below the horizon. In the foreground are empty cornstalks; several tall ones reach to the top of the photo. There is a dirt path running between rows on the left and right.

The Ronald Reagan clip that Trump insists is a "fake." It's 100% genuine and attested to by the Reagan Library.

MeidasTouch @meidastouch.com · 6h

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

Since @rkinnett.bsky.social just posted the Heart of the Heart Nebula, bringing back my version. Ryan, my 10" RC doesn't have quite the resolution of that 30", but I shot dual narrowband and got more dust and O[III] LOL. 🔭

Melotte 15, the Heart of the Heart Nebula, shot in dual narrowband, with a color palate that makes H-alpha gas look yellow and O[III] (ionized oxygen) appear blue. There are twisting pillars of gas and dust lit up by nearby stars. It's pretty out there.

Democratic wins media

JB Pritzker just went on Fox News and perfectly exposed how Donald Trump is trying to use federal troops to influence our elections. This is a must watch.
