When they start accusing others of meddling in elections, is when you should investigate them for election rigging. Tale as old as time. #romania
Hard-right Romanian presidential hopeful George Simion today cried foul over early voting in crucial polling stations in Moldova — home to many Romanian citizens — in a sign of increasing nerves about an election that is set to come down to the wire.
Simion accuses Moldova of manipulating Romanian election as vote goes to wire
Turnout is high in Moldova, a nation with many Romanian voters who did not back ultranationalist Simion in the first round.

A forma como Zelenskiy foi tratado pelos EUA foi nojenta. O acordo apresentado por Trump já era ridículo o suficiente e mesmo assim a Ucrânia estava disposta a discutir os termos.

Quase parece propositado para ter uma justificação para retirar o apoio à Ucrânia.

So that was Vance's play - pick a fight to kill the minerals deal to prevent any further US support for Ukraine. Shameful.
Zelensky has reportedly left the White House without signing the minerals deal. The agreement appears to be canceled.

JD Vance materially damaged American security today, picking an unnecessary and public fight for the purpose of picking the fight and driving a wedge between us and our allies.

A shockingly unpatriotic, anti-American display.

Bem, os resultados na Alemanha não foram os melhores, mas também não foram os piores.

É uma questão de ver os assentos que os partidos mais pequenos conseguem, para ver que coligação vai-se formar. Embora Merz já tenha admitido que não via a necessidade de trabalhar com os Verdes

Good job America, you broke all possible good will you had with the rest of the western world.

A forma como o Trump alienou e rompeu relações que os EUA levaram décadas a construir é assustador. Isto é apenas mais um exemplo disso.

Temos o presidente dos EUA a espalhar propaganda russa, a mentir sobre os valores dados à Ucrânia e a taxa de aprovação do Zelenskiy. Nova Ordem Mundial.

U.S. Constitution Article I sections 8 and 9 have been violated, extremely obviously. Did anybody in this country take an oath to defend the Constitution? Musk controls the main payment system of Treasury and can do anything e.g. ensure money for space only goes to SpaceX and nothing to competition.

You can just be honest and say you want the island because you have the ego and mind of a 5 year old. Greenland gets protection from NATO.

I'm sorry, but if this information checks out, Trump might be dumber than I thought (which is actually impressive).

For someone who talks about the threat of China and Russia, maybe alienating your biggest ally is not a smart choice.
