Before Witkoff meets with Putin again, I wish he'd stop in Kyiv and meet some mothers who lost their sons & daughters fighting against Putin's invading army on the frontline, or talk with some kids who lost their grandmas in Putin's drone attacks, or meet some warriors without limbs...

Pie shakes! 😲
Appears to be some discourse about Pies.
Two thoughts
1) Pies are one of the greatest methods for food delivery, both working for both savoury and sweet
2) There is an amazing place in Iowa City that does PieShakes and frankly its probably the closest I'll get to nirvana

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

Nothing to worry about, just a US official advising our nuclear-armed adversary how to manipulate the President of the United States, a notoriously weak-minded mark
This is really wild stuff tbh

I miss when Twitter was truly great like the time a guy got upset at someone calling out a cricket team and started explaining how bowling worked and at the end OP was like "thanks for explaining btw I hold the world record for most career outs in cricket history"

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.

1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.

2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.

3. Russia pays everyone for everything.

4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.

Thanks for your attention to this matter.

It was a lover and his lass,
With a hey, and a ho, and a hey nonino,
That o’er the green corn-field did pass,
In spring time, the only pretty ring time,
When birds do sing, hey ding a ding, ding,
Sweet lovers love the spring.

I’ve been thinking about this Hitchens thing constantly since yesterday.
Nothing better demonstrates white racists than a man who vehemently opposes immigrants to Britain, but thinks he and his ilk have the absolute right to emigrate to any country of their choosing.

Just a periodic reminder.
Wish people would stop saying Trump has done a U-turn on Ukraine. He does this every few weeks. Putin then makes a violent point of ignoring him. Trump's alleged change of heart is just a prelude to his next humiliation by Putin.
