Zelenskyy to Europe: "(Russian) army will number 2.5-3 million. They want to reach all of this by 2030, and, based on their speed, we see that this is possible. (..) Without a million Ukrainians, you won't manage.”

You realy, really, really don't want these guys better trained.

You want them let go. Preferably out of a helicopter, at altitude. But, at the very least, you want fewer Nazis in the federal agencies; not better trained ones.

Land of the free.
Home of the brave.

ICE is the hand of your oppressor. ICE is the weapon and means of control.

So that makes ICE your first target.

I bet he wants his face on the medals.

There was a feature on Irish radio this morning that discussed #Trump as suffering from 'pronoia' (the positive opposite of paranoia). I hadn't heard of it before but it's food for further thought...

Russia may be able to control Shahed drones via Starlink within days, potentially making them resistant to electronic warfare jamming and significantly more accurate. Ukrainian expert Serhii “Flash” reports the first confirmed use of Starlink control on a BM-35 drone today.

Russia used to be the enemy.

Why is Russia no longer the enemy?

And why are the likes of Trump and Musk allowed to get away with siding with the enemy?

When did treason stop being a thing?

Seriously, America, get your shit together.

I still think this should be Europe's course of action. Trump won't be stopped and so Europe may as well try to get something back for it. All the while, re-arming discreetly in the background.

Is there a better option?
Europe is not going to defend Greenland with force. Not in a million years.

They'd be as well to trade it for getting Russia out of Ukraine. And then compensate Greenlanders for their trouble.

Only once has #Article5 ever before been triggered - and it was post-9/11 with the #US doing the asking.

Every #NATO member stood with the US then.

Donald #Trump, post-9/11, boasted that he now owned the tallest building in Manhattan.

The man is every bit as classless today as he was then.

Trump: "The problem is there's not a thing that Denmark can do about it if Russia or China wants to occupy Greenland, but there's everything we can do. You found that out last week with Venezuela."

Well, there's NATO's Article 5 of course.

Is Europe learning that the best way to damage Trump is to behead Putin?

Give Ukraine the assistance it needs to defeat Russia and Trump will magically run out of ideas... and guts.

So a guy shouting at the president that he's a pedophile protector gets suspended but the actual pedophile protector continues on at his job just fine?

Right, ok.

Trump said Iran had stopped killing antiregime protesters and wouldn’t execute those it accused of trying to topple the government.

He said that he hoped what officials had been told was true.
Russia issues a warning to the U.S.: Any U.S. attack on Iran would be categorically unacceptable and would be the gravest mistake, with disastrous consequences.
