Kuldīgā mirušās Luīzes mamma uzticēja IR traģisko stāstu, lai brīdinātu citus vecākus. Luīzei bija 21 un, visticamāk, viņa nelegālās tabletes pamēģināja pirmoreiz mūžā. Kā skaidro ārsti, sintētiskās narkotikas ir tik jaudīgas, ka to pārdozēšanai pietiek ar niecīgu daudzumu.

Viena no cienījamākajām pasaules protestantu baznīcām arhibīskapes amatā ievēl sievieti. Cerams, piedzīvosim arī laikus, kad Latvijā šādus amatus ieņems sievietes.

Russia was trying to do its own version of spiderweb, but in NATO countries

Šodien "konservatīvie" norāva Saeimas sēdi, lai netērētu laiku "klimata glābšanai". Vakar 2000 gadus vēcas katoļu baznīcas pāvests Leons nosodīja tos, kuri "noniecina aizvien skaidrākās klimata izmaiņu pazīmes". Kurš ir īstais tradicionālo vērtību aizstāvis? catholicweekly.com.au/world-must-c...

This is, without any exaggeration, exactly how Putin and Orbán proceeded — using antisemitism to discredit the idea of civil society and political opposition, and as an excuse to undo the rule of law. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/25/u...

Having spent the last few days in Warsaw, I'm more conscious of the echoes of 1939-45 - not just Hitler's aggression & Stalin's treachery, but the fecklessness of the Western allies. Ukraine has had far more help than Poland, but if Putin ultimately wins, W fecklessness will have helped again.

Three Russian fighter jets violated Estonia’s airspace on Friday for an unusually long period, some 12 minutes, in what Estonia’s foreign minister called an “unprecedentedly brazen” intrusion over the NATO country.

Baltkrievijā vēl joprojām notiek valsts līmeņa skaistumkonkursi.

Meanwhile in Russia: top propagandist Vladimir Solovyov is so certain that Trump is in Putin's pocket that he blatantly invited America to fight on Russia's side against Ukraine and the rest of Europe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cV69...

Tas sazvērestības teoriju apmērs, ko abas puses izplata Č.Kērka sakarā, ir neticams. Papildus diagnoze ASV sabiedrībai un vienlaikus brīdinājums citām valstīm, kur noved šādu apmēru polarizācija.

NATO should state that all incursions in front-line states will be intercepted. It should deploy more aircraft on Baltic and Polish air-policing missions. And it should strengthen Ukraine’s ability to strike drone-production facilities deep inside Russia

This isn't "just" Shaheds on Poland It's jamming v/d Leyen and German general's planes It's bombing the EU HQ in Kyiv It's bombing Ukr civilians every day and night with 800+ drones and missiles AND THIS IS JUST LAST WEEK.

The main lesson from last night for Poland (indeed all NATO in CEE) should be that their defense starts in Ukraine. Imagine the results if Russians could launch a massive UAV attack on Poland from just over the border in Ukraine?

Russia will push NATO further and further. Next time there will be more drones and maybe they will hit a field somewhere. Then they will hit an old factory building. Then it will become normalized etc. This is what decades of appeasement has led to.

It’s essential NATO responds strongly, with increased aid to democratic Ukraine and more sanctions on fascist Russia. If it doesn’t, Putin will see this as a sign of weakness and will test the alliance further - increasing the risk of a more dangerous escalation of the conflict with the West.

Breaking News: There are Russian drones that have been shot down in Poland's airspace. Polish, Italian, Dutch, NATO tankers and fighter jets are now in the skies above Poland. I’m sure Donald Trump is going to give Putin another two weeks to explain his latest incursion into allied territory.

Up to 20 drones. That's not one random drone. Must be a planned action to test NATO. My bet is that NATO will not hit Russia back. Then Russia will escalate even more. Textbook case of what appeasement leads to.

Putin's Russia: "According to Novaya Gazeta there have been 56 deaths of successful businesspeople and officials under strange circumstances since February 2022. Many of them have fallen out of windows." www.foreignaffairs.com/russia/russi...

Why are people calling russia (maybe accidentally) hitting the Cabinet of Ministers in Kyiv “an escalation”? Ru has been trying to assassinate Zelensky since 2022. They hit civilian targets all the time. I don’t think they’ve been holding back from attacking an empty govt building.

Europe failed to confront russian violence: after Crimea, after occupation of Donetsk, after MH17. The Kremlin read hesitation as weakness. As permission. On 🇺🇦’s 34th Independence Day, my message to Europe: stop fearing your own strength, start exercising it. Be inspired by 🇺🇦 and be brave like 🇺🇦

The Pentagon is blocking Ukraine from using long-range missiles to hit Russian military targets. No wonder Putin still thinks he can win the war www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Russian media report massive lines at gas stations due to a fuel shortage — refineries have partially or completely halted operations after drone attacks. Fuel collapse in Russia: Primorsky Krai, occupied Crimea, Zabaykalsky Krai. Well then, Russians can confidently switch to horses and donkeys.

If we have any chance at all (and I believe in our victory) non-compliance and non-cooperation is the only way. They cannot imprison us all, they just hope to intimidate us into inaction sooner than they crack.

Day 214 of uninterrupted #GeorgiaProtests. A large rally again. For 7 months, we haven’t stopped. It might plateau and spike again, but we will not surrender our country to a Russian takeover. Friends can help us avoid costs through tangible steps such as targeted sanctions.

This case is a perfect example of what the Russian émigré art scene is all about. “I have no evidence of how close she is to [Putin’s] family,” Rodionova said. “But as a gallery worker, she has access to personal data of anti-war artists, including those being persecuted by the Russian state.”

Kolēģi, ļoti vajadzētu uzmanīties un nekrist populistu slazdos. Kļūda bija jau pavairot video formātā Rosļikova citātu. Tagad nevajag vairot Šlesera citātu par “nozagtām vēlēšanām”. Tas ņemts 1:1 no Trampa kampaņas. Izmantojiet citus vārdus, vai arī dodiet vienmēr kontekstu.

Daugavpils rezultātu komentāru straumē - plaša diapazona ķīselis. Tajā nebūtu ētiski savas negācijas pludināt to latvisko partiju pārstāvjiem un atbalstītājiem, kam nav biroju Daugavpilī. Ir ļoti ērti noskatīties no malas un publiski apelēt pie vietējās pilsoniskās sabiedrības sirdsapziņas.
