cc: @jaredkushner you soulless fucking ghoul. This is on you, motherfucker, and that goon monkey Witkoff, and your soon-to-be-wormmeat FIL. I hope some Ukrainian dad finds you one day, you Putin whore.
A father screams in anguish beside the body of his dead daughter. Two 15-year-old girls were killed in a russian attack on the center of Chernihiv, Ukraine. Dozens are injured, including four children aged 10, 16, and 17, and a 10-month-old baby girl. Meanwhile, Trump has ordered Ukriane not to hit russian oil refineries, so that russia could make billions and build more rockets and drones to kill more Ukrainians.

Times have been tough in this Ohio town ever since the woke mob closed the old Cheesecake Factory. So when Vivek Ramaswamy promised to legalize child rape, they finally had something to cheer about again. But then Obama said something elitist.

This footage is from the very beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022. Look at that little Ukrainian boy, walking towards the border in tears, surrounded by families fleeing a Russian invasion. Now consider the extraordinary moral bankruptcy of Trump, Rubio, Hegseth and Musk, whose message to Ukraine increasingly amounts to: “Fuck Ukraine. Russia gets our sympathy.” Meanwhile, Steve Witkoff apparently sees Putin as some sort of humanitarian. Quite remarkable. Most people can distinguish a humanitarian from a man whose army bombs hospitals and forces children to flee their homes. Apparently, this requires a level of intellectual sophistication beyond certain members of the American establishment. It hardly takes a magnificent imagination to work out which side these gentlemen might have found more accommodating in 1939. “Never again” was supposed to mean something. It wasn’t a decorative slogan to be dusted off once a year while making excuses for the next dictator. And to those who admire Russia as some glorious defender of Western civilisation, perhaps try learning something about the country. Russia has millions of Muslim citizens. It is hardly the anti-Muslim paradise some of its Western admirers imagine. Nor does Putin’s dictatorship represent the democratic freedoms they claim to cherish. But then, understanding history, geography or basic human decency does rather spoil the pleasure of having absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. That little boy understood who the aggressor was. Remarkable how many supposedly powerful adults still struggle with it.

Every week, somebody posts pictures like these. Every week, I think the same thing. This is the laziest excuse for “reporting.”

Replying to @Reuters
The Sermon on the Mount has been replaced by the Gospel According to Trump: blessed are the aggrieved, for they shall inherit the culture war. White evangelical support has slipped to 63%, but it remains his unshakeable bedrock ahead of the midterms. Imagine the sheer cognitive dissonance required to look at a man who ignores the Ten Commandments, brags about his bedroom prowess at rallies, and runs an administration mired in corruption—and they declare Trump God's anointed champion. It’s because he validates their deepest craving: white cultural dominance. He gives them permission to declare war on a pluralistic democracy. They didn't trade Jesus for a cross, darlings—they traded Him for a strongman who promises to put their tribe back on top.

We all need to understand that putin’s biggest problem is the very existence of Ukraine and Ukrainians. This was never about making deals or reaching compromises. It was always about absorbing Ukraine, forcing Ukrainians to assimilate, and ultimately erasing the identity of an entire nation.

Ukraine has been the bulwark of the West. They've shed the blood of their finest people to protect all of us. Trump is an ingrate, and an absolute cretin.
Trump: "We've given a lot to Ukraine. They've given us nothing."

I will not stop sharing these images. This is sick and evil shit. This administration in the White House is aiding and abetting a war criminal and enemy of the United States of America.
Her name was Angelina. She was just one year old. Today, a Russian missile killed her and her mother on a children’s playground in Ukraine’s 🇺🇦Kharkiv region. And yet, many seem to believe that business as usual with Russia is possible. How utterly sickening🤬🤬🤬

A horrific Russian strike in the Kharkiv region. A “shahed” struck people directly – in a park near an ordinary café. Pure atrocity. Six people were killed, including children. A little girl was killed in a stroller – her name was Angelina, she was just over a year old, born in August 2025… Her mother’s name was Inna. She died in the hospital… Another girl who was killed was 11 years old. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Another 14 people were injured, including six more children. I am grateful to everyone who supports Ukraine under these circumstances and helps us shoot down “shaheds,” shoot down missiles, and stop Russian assaults. These are horrific photos, but behind them are shattered lives and the truth about this war. Lives must be protected. Ukraine needs air defense. You can't think about making money with Russia as long as it continues its asinine war. We ask that sanctions on Russia stay in place as long as the killings continue. We ask America to be strong, and we ask it to apply the Lindsey Graham law. We ask Europe to continue its support. We ask that everything possible be done to bring peace and guarantee security. Ukraine wants peace. It is Russia that has insisted on continuing the killing all this time. The world has enough strength to stop the war. That strength must finally be used – against the murderers.

On one side is freedom, the free world, democracy, and pluralism. On the other side is Putin, Trump, Musk, and Islamism. Which side are you on?

There isn’t a single decent person in this administration. Not one. They are a black hole of empty souls. A disgrace to this nation. And that’s all I’m going to say right now because I’m so disgusted, I don’t trust myself to elaborate without saying something I’ll regret.

The thing about 24 that bothers me most is… Who is this for? It’s not because TV was begging for it. ESPN had to be convinced. It’s not for a boatload of new cash. Losing conf champ games is gonna make this a minimal gain. It’s not because the 22nd team has any shot at a natty. It doesn’t. It’s certainly not done with the health, safety, or academic success of the players in mind since they don’t even get a say in this. It’s entirely to appease the people donating the money that keeps a financially irresponsible business model afloat. It’s discounting success so schools can say “look what your donation bought.” It’s an industry hellbent on treating investors and bosses as the customer, and customers as an infinite resource that will keep coming back no matter what.

It’s Ukraine and the rest of the free world vs. Putin, Musk, and Trump. Shame on us America. Shame on us.
NEW: Ukrainian troops have been caught off guard by restrictions on Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet systems that disrupted frontline operations, as Kyiv received no advance warning from its partners of a Russian missile attack on its energy facilities for the second day running, Ukrainian officials and troops tell @FT. ft.com/content/37085602-726a…
