Overstretched by the sheer volume of corpses from the battlefield or from indiscriminate Russian attacks on civilian areas, in addition to bodies from non-war-related deaths, the experts are coping with the stress day to day.

Four years into Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, experts at the Kharkiv Oblast forensic medical bureau — the oldest in Ukraine and founded in 1797 — continue to work tirelessly in what they see as their battle to bring justice to Ukrainians killed by Russia's war.

Sen. Kelly: "I'm going to be sitting there in the House to make a point to this president who…tried to indict me and send me to jail for something I said that he didn't like…I will be sitting there to make sure that he knows that so far he has failed."

FLAG: Trump-related files are missing from DOJ's Epstein release. There's at least one witness for whom three 2019 FBI interviews are missing. That woman is the same person who, in a 2025 FBI presentation, is identified to have accused Trump of a sexual assault when she was between 13 and 15.

Rubin: "There is at least one witness for whom 3 interviews with the FBI in in 2019 are missing [from the Epstein files]. What's the big deal? We can also confirm she is the same person who in a 2025 FBI presentation is identified as accusing Trump of a sexual assault when she was between 13 and 15"

Good guy Kash Patel

US courts are foiling efforts by the Trump administration to keep under wraps information about the Department of Government Efficiency and the role that Elon Musk played in it during his whirlwind stint with the White House last year

In a normal world, this would be the end of his time in the Administration. In 2026, unless more senators decide to develop a spine, it's business as usual.

The Trump administration just announced they are suing the University of California for not complying with their demand to pay them $1 billion. The move would defund programs to help cure cancer, treat heart disease, and prevent Alzheimer’s.

Dani Bensky, Epstein survivor: “Why is the FBI director out there partying like a college kid when he should be investigating the vast criminal enterprise?”

UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell: Trump is “compromised” and “protecting” Epstein's associates

Republicans are going to put @bencollins.bsky.social out of business

China and India are the financial backers of the russian terrorist state and also abstained. North Korea and Iran are the military allies of the russian terrorist state and voted against.

The Russian puppet states of Hungary and the United States abstained on a motion calling for support for lasting peace in Ukraine at the UN today.

United States abstains in UN vote on support for peace in Ukraine. Fascist Russia voted against. The US objected to text in the resolution on the territorial integrity of Ukraine and the need to achieve a just peace. Under Trump, the US has fallen so very far, so very fast.

Shameful.

I’ve seen the videos of kids throwing snowballs at NYPD officers in Washington Square Park. Officers, like all city workers, have been out in a historic blizzard, keeping New Yorkers safe and cars moving. Treat them with respect. If anyone’s catching a snowball, it’s me.

Say it together now: "Russian warship, go fuck yourself."

An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU

According to an NPR investigation, the DOJ failed to release documents relating to interviews the FBI conducted in 2019 with a woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child. Only the first interview, is available to the public and she doesn’t mention Trump at all. trib.al/BU8zkFp

The idea that there is a possible coverup or that we are hiding actual docs of an alleged crime by the President of the United States, of which a survivor appears to have made, is incredibly serious. And the DOJ has to explain to the public where are these possible documents and what do they say.

It’s time for our legislators to take a lesson in courage from eighth graders like Lydia and stand up to the gun lobby.

It's worth reading Rahman's account of what happened to her, it's not that long. "...the glass of the passenger side window flew across my face. I yelled "I'm disabled!" at the hands grabbing me. An agent said, "TOO LATE."" www.blumenthal.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Mike Johnson thinks it's "detestable" for Democrats to boycott Trump's State of the Union, but he's perfectly fine with the cover-up of child sex trafficking and the disturbing details surfacing about Rep. Tony Gonzales.

Mike Johnson is scolding democrats for not attending the SOTU because “their constituents need them there”. Yes, the same Mike Johnson who kept the House out of session for 266 days last year.

Kash Patel’s updated priorities as FBI director—partying at the Olympics, sending SWAT teams to escort his girlfriend around—suggest that the FBI's portrayal in Hollywood could use a refresh too, petridishes.bsky.social writes:

It's pretty detestable that 1600 Trump brownshirts incited by Trump's lies showed up uninvited to the Capitol, beat up cops, ransacked the building, and tried to overturn an election—and Trump, who pardoned them, is allowed to set foot in the place.

🚨BREAKING: Top Democrats are asking Congress’ investigative arm to probe a White House website urging voters to support SAVE America Act — calling it a blatant violation of federal laws barring officials from using taxpayer dollars for partisan politics. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

NEW: Felony disenfranchisement is one of the most widespread forms of voter suppression. Virginia, a state known for being one of the harshest examples of this discriminatory practice, is close to abolishing it — and voters will have the final say this fall, @anjalienjeti.bsky.social writes.

‘An extension of his administration’: how Trump’s resorts became a proxy for access and power

NEWS: The woman who told the FBI that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a child "refused to cooperate" with the FBI against him, according to an email in the Epstein database; in a previously unreported file, her name was initially unredacted. substack.com/@sollenberge...

To be totally clear—as I point out in the piece—this indicates the DOJ wanted this woman to help them in a child sex trafficking criminal investigation or prosecution against Donald Trump. They took her seriously.

The only passenger in the car when an ICE officer shot and killed a U.S. citizen in Texas last year had planned to speak up and contradict the government’s account of the shooting. But the passenger, Joshua Orta, died in an unrelated car crash on Saturday. Read more: nyti.ms/4qTVeDO

China on Tuesday said it would restrict exports to Japanese companies with ties to the defense industry, the latest escalation in Beijing’s monthslong feud with Tokyo over Taiwan.

The Justice Department has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds. It also removed some documents from the public database where accusations against Jeffrey Epstein also mention Trump. www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...

Today we mark the fourth anniversary of Russia’s unjustified war of aggression against Ukraine and its people. Austria will continue to #StandWithUkraine.

“I believe that Putin has already started [World War III]. The question is how much territory he will be able to seize and how to stop him," said Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Russia launched its full-scale invasion exactly four years ago. If anyone had told us, during that first month, that this would be the situation four years later, we would have instantly called it a massive Ukrainian victory and a staggering Russian defeat

@normornstein.bsky.social Hi 👋🏼 Norm!

Lol they're not your friends, Kash. And you can't use federal resources—including the FBI's $62M private jet—to go on a taxpayer-funded Olympic getaway & locker room bender. Adding it to the evidence file for our investigation, @raskin.house.gov.

While you were distracted, Tennessee Republicans introduced a bill to execute women who get abortions… Paying ATTENTION, yet?!

Lauren Boebert has called for the resignation of fellow Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales. This comes after leaked texts revealed Gonzales repeatedly pestered a staffer for nude photos. She committed suicide soon after.
