News Analysis: Nigel Farage, the leader of the right-wing populist party, Reform UK, consolidated his reputation as Britain’s foremost political disrupter by making gains in local elections on Thursday. He may also have blown a hole in the country’s two-party political system.

Despite what you think and as much as I advocate for green technology, I never want to see Albertans or Saskatchewanians suffer, ever. There are good people in both provinces— I think they could lead the way with green tech. I am a socialist, I want everyone to thrive.

The russian army disguises mines as toys and household items. Children, animals, and civilians find them in fields, streets, and playgrounds. No place is truly safe. Watch the video and try to spot the mine👇 u24.gov.ua/step-by-step...

Despite promises of cuts from Trump and Elon, the U.S. spent about $220 billion more in the first 100 days than it did last year. We’re spending far more and getting far less. So where is all the money going?

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

An infantryman from the Khyzhak Brigade, call sign Vepr, hadn’t contacted his beloved for two weeks. The girl learned through his commander that he had been wounded. Wanting to support him, she wrote a heartfelt letter, which his brothers-in-arms delivered by drone to his position in Toretsk.
