The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home.

Preach it
Impeach, convict, remove.
And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will.

Do me a favor and forward this post.This needs to get out to everyone. We need to be unified.
Congress, pay attention. We the People decide where our money goes — not the President. And we are demanding full support for Ukraine, with everything they need to win. Trump does not hold the power of the purse. The American people do. Act accordingly.

I feel like most of us understand that he will change his mind literally the next time he talks to any of his horrible goblins, because he just agrees with the last person who talked to him. but still it's so funny that he fully got rolled by Mamdani leagues more than we even could have hoped
Let's not go crazy & think that just because he has nice things to say about Mamdani while Mamdani is in the room means that it's going to last past his next dose of naptime propaganda. Still some fine entertainment

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.
