Suella Braverman's tragedy is that it will never matter how much she debases herself in search of power: she will never be more than she is now because literally no one can stand her.

Essential viewing. He explains very clearly why only a clear victory for Ukraine will give peace to Europe. And he articulates precisely how the Biden administration prevent Ukraine from winning four times. And then Trump completely supported the aggressor. x.com/igorsushko/s...

Trump wants to end birthright citizenship. EXCEPT for those facing charges for rape, child sex trafficking and money-laundering. Then he’ll personally fight to get them into the US. Trump: never not siding with the worst people in the world.

Progressive, works. Look 👀 🏆😁 "Last year, Spain recorded most growth of ANY major country: 3.2%. Under a Socialist-led coalition it urges immigration to drive prosperity, with residency for 900k migrants. 2024 saw 400k vacancies filled by migrants, as unemployment fell to lowest levels since 2008"

Last night was interesting. A majority of the world's countries sided with Europe over the US including China. Their abstention is the most impactful. Their alliance with Russia always depended on the US remaining anti-russian. So this is how the American future ends, idiotically.

Just for the record, Putin started this war. Ukraine defended itself. Russia should be pushed out, and Ukraine should be defended at all costs. Anybody suggesting otherwise is a traitor.

One way to commemorate the end of the third year of Russia’s senseless, criminal war against Ukraine is to read the work of Ukrainians about it. Vika did not live to see the publication of this book, since she was killed by a Russian missile. But we can see her in her words.
