Everything is awful but the creativity behind some of these handmade posters gives me a glimmer of hope in humanity.

Watching Kristi Noem and Greg Bovino giving their account of the murder of Alex Pretti…I can’t stop thinking about this scene from “Andor”.

Ukrainian energy workers are doing a titanic job.

After every Russian strike, they go back and save the power system again.

At -15°C, they drive to destroyed power plants and boiler houses to restore heat and electricity to homes, hospitals, and schools. 1/

Absolutely shameful to throw your employee under the bus when they’re murdered, but that’s what happens when you’re in the dumbest cult of personality in the history of the world

Det har skjedd igjen. ICE har myrdet enda en uskyldig amerikaner. Jeg skriver om dette og de fleste republikaneres vilje til å tro på sine løgnaktige ledere fremfor sine egne øyne. snoen.substack.com/p/tro-dine-e...
Tro dine egne øyne
Føderale agenter dreper uskyldige amerikanere. Trump-administrasjonen lyver systematisk om det.

Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.”

Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.

is it a good sign that 2 people you've invited to be on your "Board of Peace" can't join you in Switzerland because they would be arrested for war crimes?

Almost all of Murmansk is without electricity, water, and heating. The cause is cited as a network failure.

A similar situation reported in Severomorsk, which is the headquarters of the Russian Northern Fleet and their nuclear naval forces.

Not enough, all russian cities must be like this

Exactly this. It was the idea of democracy, economic prosperity and real independence from the corrupting influence of Russia that prompted Putin to attack Unraine.
The #1 reason that Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022 was to stop Ukraine from succeeding as a capitalist democracy with real freedom and prosperity for their people.

If Ukraine achieved what Poland achieved before them, then this would have led to revolution in Russia within a decade.

Demonstrators as far as the eye can see. Current status of the march in Downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota for Ice Out of Minnesota. They are turning onto 3rd Street from 5th Avenue.

Russians openly state that there will be no peace until Ukraine surrenders. They’ve even invented a term for it: the "Anchorage format." Peskov stated this clearly yesterday, and every russian action confirms the same thing.

Jeg BEGRIPER ikke at det er en nyhetssak at danske soldater hadde med seg skarp ammo til Grønland. SELVFØLGELIG HADDE DE DET. Det skulle virkelig tatt seg ut om de møtte uten ammunisjon til geværene sine. Denne situasjonen er for alvorlig til dumme saker av denne typen. Orker ikke linke.

If Russian warships can freely sail around Greenland — Ukraine can help. They can sink near Greenland just as easily as they sink near Crimea. No problem. We would solve this problem if we were in NATO — Zelenskyy.

US Republican Congressman Don Bacon:

„There has been grave damage done with our European allies. It’s going to take the next president to spend a lot of time trying to fix the relationship. (…) Our allies in Europe don’t think we’re dependable and that’s a shame.

I try to avoid hyperbole when it comes to Trump policies, but this is absolutely frickin’ insane—on about eleventy different levels.

Massive, systemic Fourth Amendment violations because … reasons.
ICE secretly told its officers that any time someone has been ordered removed, ICE can break down their door.

It has been accepted for generations that the only thing which can authorize agents to break into your home is a warrant signed by a judge. No wonder ICE hid this memo!

If the US is genuinely worried about a Russian threat in the Arctic then the best way to address it would be to destroy Russia's capacity for military aggression by helping Ukraine to win.

This is a very good point. The November 2025 US National Security Strategy never mentions the Arctic at all. The idea that it's a genuine security priority for the Trump administration is not credible.
