On this day in history, November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall fell — a moment that marked not just the end of a barrier, but the beginning of the fall of the Soviet Union.
All empires eventually fall. So will the russian empire.

The very existence of people requiring support like SNAP and unemployment payments should not be tied to the inability of the government to function. If this was the leadership of a company, they all would be fired by the Board and shareholders!
Lori Chavez-DeRemer: "When we're talking about the SNAP program, one of the other programs we're definitely concerned about is Unemployment Insurance. That will be the next thing that we have to be concerned about."

In the face of this cruel government shutdown, we’re taking another significant step to protect Maryland families and children:
I’ve signed an executive order releasing $62 million to help Marylanders who rely on SNAP benefits put food on the table.

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

Russia broke its 1994 security guarantees when first occupying Crimea and then attacking Ukraine. Any security guarantee from the current Russian fascist government is worthless!
Russia has no intention to attack NATO or EU member countries&is ready to enshrine its position"in future security guarantees,"from which the EU is shying away,Lavrov said
He also said that "NATO expansion continues unabated,"adding that the West is preparing for a "new big European war"
