We're not in WWIII – not yet. But if we don't kick Russia out of Ukraine, we will be. Putin must be stopped.

“In days after Alaska, a European intel agency distributed a hard-copy report in an envelope to some of the continent’s most senior national security officials, who were shocked by the contents: Inside were details of the commercial and economic plans the Trump admin had been pursuing with Russia.”

THOSE ARE NOT CONCESSIONS!!
REPORTER: What kind of concessions are the Russians going to have to make?

TRUMP: The big concession is they stop fighting and they don't take any more land

Abraham Lincoln: “The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.”

JFK: “Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.”

Donald Trump: “Things happen.”

Ukrainians are so resourceful:
Streets of Kherson covered with anti-drone nets to protect civilians from russian drones.

A city where russians regularly hunt civilians with drones in the infamous “human safari” for sport and for entertainment, still finds ways to carry on 💔

Pope Leo XIV voiced support for Ukraine, expressing concern over renewed strikes on cities. He called for prayers for a just and lasting peace, noting the toll on civilians, especially children, and the destruction of homes as winter sets in. “I stand close to those who suffer so cruelly,” he said.

Neue Zahlen: Polen ist Partner Nummer 1 des Osthandels. Wir tauschen mit Polen mehr als 22 MAL SO VIELE Waren wie mit Russland.
Aus der öffentlichen und politischen Debatte kann nicht entnehmen, dass Polen 22 MAL WICHTIGER ist als die Russische Föderation.

Three key points:
1) The admin has been planning mass firings to begin in October since February
2) The work necessary to carry out mass firings is illegal during a shutdown, violating the Antideficiency Act, which carries a criminal penalty
3) This harms America, ridding us of talent and expertise

The most frustrating thing about this war is that the US could step in forcefully now with harsh sanctions against Russia and a large military package for Ukraine with ranged weapons as the centrepiece, and the war would end soon with a Russian defeat.

Did we live through the same period?
Megyn Kelly: “We haven't felt like ourselves since Obama. He was such a slick snake…He was so divisive in his messaging...He’s the one who started to inject race when no one had been doing it…They say ‘Trump is divisive’. He’s the antidote, the answer to the divisiveness of Obama.”

This has gone way too far: why can’t we do something about it? Putin has thrown down the gauntlet, and we stand there, stupefied, as Ukrainians take the hit for us, time and again.
This is how Russian drone crashing into your apartment looks like. + we live in truly bizarre times. this person stands there calmly in their Kyiv apartment that was just attacked by a Russian Shahed drone, and just calmly says why you should indeed hide in bathroom or hallway during the attack ,

Sounds like state socialism to me. Where is the outrage on the right?
CNBC: So we should expect the US government to be taking more equity stakes in businesses around the country?
