I hosted Ukrainian refugees in my own home, here in the UK, who ran from the murderous Russian forces. They were Russian speaking and, because of the Russian invasion, they were learning Ukrainian.

I am. You should read his wiki page. Maybe a shit politician but, tbh, I rather sick of the professional politicians we've been getting lately. We're not doing too bad with someone whose heart is in the right place but doesn't now how to influence the right wing press.

Congress has the power and so do the courts. They are not exerting that power.

Who'd have thought eh? I almost booked a Caribbean cruise/Disneyland vacation in 2026. If I ever find myself shipwrecked off mainland USA, I'm taking my chances swimming for Africa.

I don't know what people expect an adjudicated rapist to say other than, "it takes two to tango". It is a statement used by domestic violence perpetrators and rapists. Trump has simply taken that exact same attitude and applied it to an imperialistic invasion of a sovereign nation.

I'm challenging you for "grain of truth". Altitude training might be why this grift has developed, but isn't that is about lowering O2 not raising CO2? CO2 is always a toxin, which is why our bodies work so hard to get rid of it. Free divers, I think, build up CO2 resistant, iirc. Maybe that's it.

He was a working member of the Royal family. Every minute of his day was scheduled. Just show your diary... such an obvious lie.

This interview showed the world what a smug person he is. Even his defence, a denial that he ever met a woman, even though he is photographed with her, belittles, "going to Pizza Express in a shit hole town is so beneath me that I have it as a core memory". He thinks his statement is a victory.

What's the U.S.-Provided Data So Essential For Unrestricted Storm Shadow Strikes on russia | Defense Express

The issue of restrictions imposed of Ukraine's use of Western weapons has encountered another pitfall, related to the advanced guidance systems which are inoperable without a permit from the United St...

The guidance system is under US control. The UK authorised their use in all of Russia at least 1 year or more ago. When they were used yesterday the US restrictions must have already been lifted. Likely the first strikes would be before public announcements.

I understand.

Yes, I agree and I have already forgiven Ukraine for any future action. Nothing is your fault at this point.

Unfortunately the world will betray Ukraine even more if that were to happen. What a difficult tightrope the world demands that Ukraine should walk. Yet, Ukraine will win, but my heart bleeds for the unfair cost you pay.

Thank you for that. I'm LGBTQ+ ally. I can't feel your pain, but I can try to empathise as best I can.

I would prefer that they say, we guarantee it will be forced to land, or it will be shot down.

It won't work to piss Trump off. Kier Starmer is doing a great job at stroking Trump's ego. Do you want the USA to stop supplying Patriot missiles? That's the choice our PM has. Call Trump out for what he is and Ukrainians die. It's manipulation, a 🇬🇧 speciality 😀

Ukraine have been using western supplied glide bombs since 2022, such as AASM Hammer, JDAM and JDAM-ER and SDB (even ground launched GLSDB). They had kits to convert dumb bombs years ago (French iirc). They have started producing domestically produced convertion kits themselves in 2025.

Wounded soldier hops around with a rifle in his left hand. The same weapon is lying on top of him near the end of the video and he is clutching it with his right hand in a way that appears that he is ready to use it. All the invaders in the video appeared armed and willing to fight.

Nic Abbott @profpuzzlecode.bsky.social · 3d

Soldiers are dying because they are stopping the horde from murdering the civilians. Civilians are surviving because Ukraine shoots down most of the drones and the civilians are taking cover in basements / air raid shelters / metro etc. This makes Trump's statement idiotic and scandalous.

Thank you.
