I’m a nerd for many things, including Snoopy and space, but right now, I’m worried about Ukraine, my own country (the United States), and the world, in general.

The problem is not the pardon power. The problem is us. We weren't supposed to elect a crook as POTUS. If we did, the people we elected in Congress are supposed to do something about it. We're idiots, so we've elected crooks & cowards all the way up the line.

The problem is us. We need to fix us.
Giving the president the pardon power was a mistake. The most corrupt president in American history is conducting a jailbreak for his fellow criminals.

On 6 December, Ukraine marks Armed Forces Day, honoring the Defenders who hold the frontline. Across all branches, they defend cities, secure the skies, and protect civilians.

Today, Ukrainians also honor those who have fallen and those who stand guard, so that all may live in freedom.

So am I, which is why I blocked that repugnant fool.
God I am so tired of this set of opinions (everything is Israel plus Ukraine is a proxy)
Sure, that’s a horrible tragedy and likely a massive war crime. My point is that such a thing was a daily occurrence at the hands of NATO’s best friend Israel. It also opens the question of whether NATO actually has regular Ukrainians’ best interests in mind or if they’re just cannon fodder.

Thousands more Ukrainian kids are still missing, deported, or kept in occupied territories. Their families are still waiting. Their childhoods are still on hold.

Every child returned is a reminder: this crime must be documented, prosecuted, and never allowed to happen again.

Seven more Ukrainian children have just come home.

Seven Ukrainian children, illegally taken and held by Russia, have been brought back to safety.
Each return is a small miracle — a rescue from forced separation, propaganda pressure, and months of fear no child should ever experience.👇

Day 1381 of Ukraine fighting for its life, fighting for the lives of every single person in the largest country entirely within Europe.

Imagine going to bed 1,381 times in a row not knowing if you'll be woken by missiles, if you'll still have a home or even be alive.

SpaceX removed a Russian cosmonaut from Crew-12 for trying to pass on sensitive data.

I, for one, am stunned. Russians stealing tech? Spying on Western programs? Violating national security rules?

Plus important context from @planet4589.bsky.social in Jenna's story:

"He doubts that all the slated satellites will make it into orbit over the next decade. “I think it’s unlikely that within the next ten years we’ll go above 50,000 satellites,” he says."

We're at nearly 14,000 active ones now.

In 2022, Biden earmarked billions of dollars to help former coal communities. It was the largest investment in Appalachia since LBJ's 1960s’ war on poverty.

But Trump won West Virginia 70% to 28% in 2024. And now he's taking away the funding Biden gave them.

When are they going to learn?
