Now every nation in the world can see that if they come to rely on Starlink, it will be weaponized against them to extort their country's resources in their times of greatest need. The oligarchy is not smart. There is no long game. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...

I'm starting to think that the Russia thing wasn't a hoax.

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

Folks are asking, “what should I do in this moment?” One of the most passionate, progressive voices in Congress for 30 years, Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden answers that question. Here’s our conversation, inside a replica of the Senate chamber at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute: youtu.be/n_nQ-Moa9fI?...

This made me so angry I have to not actually say what it made me think.

The World Is Watching

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

The truth 👇

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

We refuse to let the oligarchs win and control us, and I feel a sea change (link to full video in reply)

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

This is absolutely disgusting.

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

Another glimpse into the Russian mind BBC journalist Victoria Derbyshire interviews Andrei Kelin,Russian ambassador to the UK VD:It was Russian military aggression in2014 K:Well,I hoped that in BBC,they better learn history VD:What about giving back Ukraine some of its territory? K:Why should we?

Brilliant simple clear explainer by @sheridanflynn.bsky.social of the threat Russia poses to Britain youtu.be/M7O4Eh3Roe8?...

WATCH: “What are you going to do to rein in the megalomaniac in the White House?” An @reprichmccormick town hall in a red GEORGIA district erupts in cheers - then boos loudly as he tries to invoke Biden and both-sides Trump’s actions. Full video: www.instagram.com/reel/DGUf45s...

Latest episode of The Jim Acosta Show: I speak w/ @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social about Trump calling himself "King" and why the Russians aren't buying it... plus @glennkirschner.bsky.social dissects the many ways why Kash Patel is not qualified to be FBI director. youtu.be/K2lvKwD55rM?si… via YouTube

What folk don't realise is that some, even in the UK and Europe, are becoming divided. Old friends, now suddenly disagreeing strongly with each other on support for Ukraine, some backing Nigel Farage's Reform stance. We're not getting the nightmare the US is facing, but it IS affecting all of us.

As Trump's administration turns on Ukraine, EU and world leaders will head to Kyiv on Monday to rally around President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and talk security guarantees. www.politico.eu/article/worl...

The EU is beefing up its subsea security. Today, we are taking steps to sanction saboteurs, deter adversaries and mobilise our military and civil capacities when needed. This includes boosting funding to safeguard critical infrastructure.

Honestly beginning to think that if this current crisis cannot be rectified, we might be looking at a secession of States and a whole new center of power/ flag.

Mark my words—He is going to try to shut down mail-in voting. When he does, we will sue and we will win. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Lawyers at Twitter are reportedly threatening advertisers to spend more money on the platform “or else” Elon Musk will use his connections with Trump to hurt their companies.

Britain to offer EU youth visa scheme in Brexit reset talks The ‘Australian-style’ agreement would allow tens of thousands of young EU citizens to live and work in the UK for up to three years Mobility would be reciprocal, but the EU dislikes British plans to cap numbers and an NHS surcharge.

This is who Republicans just made FBI Director. Kash Patel calls for “offensive operations” to jail Americans who they consider “the enemy.” “We will go out and find the conspirators... Yes, we are going to come after the people in the media”
