🦅🔥 Drones attacked Russian Oryol at night: locals report a series of explosions heard in different parts of the city.

This is what dictators do.

Macron in response to the Trump regime and Russia invasion threat: "Greenland is not to be sold or to be taken." "You are not alone, we stand with you" People in Greenland greeted the French leader and waved an EU flag.

Compare and contrast scenes from yesterday in America. On the one hand, Trump's low-energy Dear Leader parade (that cost you $45 million). On the other, millions of people across the country gathering peacefully to say: Here, we have no kings.

Macron has arrived in Calgary

Explosions are reported in Kermanshah, Iran. A new round of airstrikes.

I tell you what, the United States Army understood the assignment.

This was posted today on social media by Utah Senator Mike Lee. It is beyond the bounds of any decency and humanity and should result in his immediate resignation or removal.

MAGA terrorist Vance Luther Boelter arrested after manhunt for assassinating a US lawmaker and her husband and brutally shooting another. He had a list of at least 70 Democrat lawmakers and other private citizens he was planning to murder.

The arrest of the suspected shooter brings relief to our entire state. Yet, this unimaginable tragedy will change us forever. Our deepest thanks go to the first responders, law enforcement officials, and medical providers across the state enough for their lifesaving and tireless work.

Lawsuit Alleges 'Secretly Altered' Vote Machines Stole Election From Kamala Harris

I am pretty sure the people have spoken. This isn't what we want. And the whole point of this weekend? A message to our current president: No Kings. You work for us, not the other way around.

Overnight, Iran carried out a large-scale missile attack on Israel, firing around 100 missiles. At least three people were killed and more than 100 injured. The strikes reportedly hit a refinery and a power plant.

ICE setting up in Bell, CA. Study the vehicles and process. Thank you to this hero for capturing this!

Holy shit! Absolute dude recognized a rifle in the backpack #SLC shooting suspect and prevents tragedy.

We tried political pressure... we even said please. They refused... so we'll see you in court.

The roommate of Minnesota shooter Vance Boelter, responding to MAGA lies that he’s a Democrat: “He would be offended if people called him a Democrat,” he told CBS News, adding that Boelter “was a Trump supporter, voted for Trump,” and was happy Trump won the 2024 election.

Thank you to all in law enforcement who worked relentlessly to locate and arrest this suspect. It was a mammoth and heroic effort.

Roommate of Minnesota shooter tells @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy: He "would be offended if people thought he was a Democrat” Listened to InfoWars. Hated Walz and other Dem politicians. Loved Trump.

Swab it for Miller’s DNA.

This is why we march. He is a tyrant, not a leader.

Anonymous says they are releasing secret files revealing an upcoming false flag attempt to drag us into war in the Middle East.

The new @lastweektonight.com piece on juvenile incarceration featured several @ProPublica stories. First up was our 2021 investigation with @wpln.bsky.social about young Black kids in Tennessee jailed for a crime that doesn't exist: www.propublica.org/article/blac...

I received this message after the political assassinations in Minnesota. Many people have encouraged me to contact the RCMP. But I've been through the routine many times. Nothing happens. I'll just add it to my extensive file of stupid haters. They are cowards. I carry on.

In West Chester, PA a man impersonating a police officer is arrested. He had a mass of ammo on him.

well, it took longer than I’d have liked to actually finally get my new car (this has been in process for months) but I am, at last, no longer a Tesla owner

State Senator Tom Fernandez of South Carolina genuinely felt that a middle finger and a $289K truck made him appear strong. It simply made identifying the Nazi easier.

Folsom CA, Who is he?

A nightmare. 🙏🏾

The cowardice of the Congressional GOP to not put guardrails on the lunatic in the Oval Office - as they are required to by oath - is overwhelming at times.

This is a piece on the Substack of the CEO of FIRE written by a FIRE's special consul for college campuses. This is a "free speech" organization literally taking Trump's side in its efforts to attack free expression at a university even though they believe the university is legally right.

🧵I think it’s important to understand what disinformation like Sen. Mike Lee’s tweets are trying to do, psychologically/cognitively. In my disinfo class/Substack, I talk about how disinfo often uses “moral disengagement strategies” to manipulate people into accepting harmful conduct 1/

how is every new video I see of this parade more embarrassing than the last

GOV. WALZ: “This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way we deal with our political differences.”

The Due Process Clause of our Constitution implies the right to privacy. We have a problem, People. An Executive Order taps Palantir, a technology firm, to compile data on Americans with no oversight. [Gift Article] nyti.ms/4kKvN5g What’s to prevent massive surveillance? @lwvus.bsky.social

LAPD radio comms. Can't make this up, y'all.

Trump and Hegseth have proven that, with only six months of planning, the entire US military can be deployed to defend a few blocks of Pennsylvania Avenue. Xi and Putin must be trembling. by Marc Thiessen
