Aren't you glad Ukraine is the leader of the Free World and not the United States?

Students of American demography will note that this was when, proportionally, the US was accepting the most immigrants

Something that we need for our national security, or even for our ordinary life, might be hosted on a server within reach of Musk-Trump, who might shut it down just for fun. We can not have it like this. No more business with American companies. No more tech dependency.

Ngl I don't think the Canada tariffs are off the table yet, I think Trump really thinks he can coerce Canada into the Union and he's gonna keep circling back

🇵🇱🤝🇺🇦 "Poland bought Starlinks, which it gave to Ukraine. We pay and will continue to pay a subscription fee for satellite internet for Ukraine. I cannot imagine that someone could decide to terminate a business contract for a commercial service, to which Poland is a party."

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

This is very, very bad. Am working on a write-up, but let’s just say that firing military leaders for blatantly political reasons is wildly inappropriate; firing all the too lawyers is ominous; firing them all at the same time is a terrifying five-alarm fire

Ukraine is being invaded by Russia and stabbed in the back by the United States. Acting as a crime syndicate, the Musk-Trump regime is demanding Ukraine’s mineral resources, gas transportation network and port infrastructure in exchange for nothing – no security guarantees.

We should renounce this racket at the earliest opportunity

🧑‍🧒‍🧒🇺🇦🙏 Donald Trump says he can convince Putin to return children abducted from Ukraine. 🧐 The American president called the situation "quite tough." According to him, he only learned about the crime yesterday.

2 fucking headlines right next to each other

AI will not destroy jobs, it will actually create jobs. For every AI you have to assign 2 guys to monitor it because it's stupid and sucks ass

⚡️🇺🇸 US Special Envoy to Ukraine Keith Kellogg called Zelensky a "brave and courageous leader of a nation at war" and reported a "long and productive day" with Ukraine’s leadership. He mentioned "extensive and positive discussions" with the president and his "talented national security team."

My social feed after that hockey game

"We are in the midst of a global fight between Western liberal democracy and authoritarian government, and in this fight, the United States has just switched sides and signed up with the authoritarian camp." - Francis Fukuyama www.persuasion.community/p/the-ultima...

the whole 2020-2024 era of “dems shouldnt aggressively use the levers of power bc then republicans will do the same thing when theyre elected” sure looks dumb as dog shit right now huh

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

Which is also a revisionist lie. He was LEGALLY FORCED TO BUY TWITTER after he did everything his addled skull could come up with to back out of the deal he signed because he is weapons-grade stupid. I really fucking wish people would remember that.

UK and Norway start Arctic defense pact talks to combat Putin As Russian threat grows, London and Oslo look to “boost our security in the High North.” Every year at Xmas time Norway provides a tree for the UK as a thankyou for the help in WW2 www.politico.eu/article/uk-n...

Having to do this in a reply to Elon bullshitting about the latest update to his anti-woke chatbot… bleak

Guys, I wonder who's gonna win this thing, it sure looks close 😅

In 7 days it’s become clear Europe faces its greatest security threat since 1948 when Soviet coups d’ état in CEE led UK Foreign Minister Bevan to write President Truman suggesting what became NATO. But European leaders continue to dither and Scholz around as if all this normal. 1/2

They’re going prosecute AOC and when they do, I don’t wane to hear a damn negative word about her on here whether you think she’s too far to the center or too far left. Normal politics are now cancelled until further notice.

"Arms deliveries from the US to Ukraine have stalled. Even weapons meant for sale are now on hold. Companies ready to supply them tomorrow are waiting—no decision yet. Everyone expects a resolution so that arms can keep flowing, even for money," Head of Ukraine’s Defense Committee Roman Kostenko.

👀🇵🇱🇺🇦🇪🇺

Arresting someone for calling you fascist seems an excellent approach to proving their point.

The corruption that has happened in this month alone could take all of the nation's remaining journalists years to fully document.

you know what's a fun word? regicide.

❗️🇺🇸🙏 The US has stopped selling (!) weapons to Ukraine: even those companies that were supposed to transfer them to us tomorrow are waiting because there is no decision, — People's Deputy Roman Kostenko.

Trump is refusing to support a UN resolution condemning Russia for its aggression toward Europe. It doesn't get any clearer than that.

First on the chopping block: The federal proofreaders.

fact check: since congestion pricing started, subway crime is down 36%.

👏👏👏🇨🇦

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

Broke: Trump's policy is to cause enough chaos that this somehow allows him to install fascism. Woke: Trump's policy is a deliberate degradation of the Federal Government in accordance with FedSoc aims. Bespoke: Trump's administration only exists on paper, none of them know WTF they're doing:

Keep going folks. Everything feels terrible and overwhelming, and most of it is. But keep shouting from the rooftops and it can break through.

Why is any U.S. media outlet pretending there have been sufficient savings associated with this Musk debacle—or even any confirmed _net_ savings at all—such that every American can be given $5,000? This is clearly a desperate attempt by Musk and Trump to simply _pay_ people to stop criticizing them.

Great if true 👇👇👇
