⚡️ Zelenskyy sanctions 225 Russian shadow fleet captains

Oh fantastic. That’s exactly what we needed. What humanity apparently needed was for a team of very curious scientists to spelunk into an ice cave, chip out a prehistoric bacteria strain, and discover surprise! it laughs in the face of modern antibiotics. Of course it does.

Every day reveals a new travesty caused by DHS “ICE has blamed Castañeda Mondragón for his own injuries, saying..[he] ’fell and hit his head against a concrete wall’” “A CT scan showed fractures to the front, back and both sides of his skull-injuries a doctor [said] were inconsistent with a fall”

Why was she detained? "ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone"

Refugees and asylum seekers are now at risk of “grave harm” after a new ICE memo that lets agents arrest people without green cards, advocates warn — a policy shift that could criminalize vulnerable populations and fuel terror, not safety.

There’s no difference anymore between the Tony Blair Institute and a Trump propaganda arm. Blair uses his influence to sell a privatized world where loyalty to one man trumps international law. Cheering a fascist movement in DC isn’t much better than backing Russia or China

“When the premier tells students they're spending OSAP on watches & colognes, it’s a slap in the face to all of us.” Students are mobilizing to pressure the Ford government to reverse cuts to OSAP. But the minister insists cuts are needed to keep the program sustainable. #cdnpoli

"I can destroy the Trade, I can destroy the Country." Trump showing everyone who he really is, just like Hitler in 1945 stated the German people had betrayed him, their Führer and Germany deserved to be destroyed. Same evil, different decade.

🇺🇦 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has told AFP that his country is not losing its war against Russia, has taken hundreds of square kilometres in a new counteroffensive, and that European troops should deploy right on the front line after any ceasefire. ➡️ u.afp.com/S66W

There is a special place in hell for traitors like Fico and Orbán

The weekend is here, signs of spring are in the air. Sunshine and temperatures crawling just above freezing in Kyiv, Lviv and many places in Ukraine, but there's still pain, still power losses and still the fear of death. Day 1459 of Russia's sickening war. Here's the daily🧵

Yuliia Keleberda will remain 23 forever. She was killed by a Russian drone that attacked the evacuation unit “White Angels.” Her colleague, Yevhen Kalhan, was killed alongside her. Another police officer sustained injuries. I have often written about the work of the police unit “White Angels"

“Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. She says, ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone”

🇭🇺😵‍💫 Orban is going all-in. Sensing that he could lose the April 12 election, he is building his campaign on anti-Ukrainian narratives, in particular, scaring Hungarians with an invasion by the Ukrainian army.

Cuban man’s death at El Paso tent camp was result of “spontaneous use of force,” ICE says.

Not exactly news, but it's still striking to hear the U.S. president say that the justices he nominated to the Supreme Court should be "loyal" to him.

12yrs ago, in the heart of Kyiv, protesters with wooden shields and construction helmets stood against armed militias that massacred them in broad daylight. Their sacrifice saved our democracy. The fallen are remembered forever as the Heavenly Hundred. Glory to the Heroes.

US Supreme Court told Trump he couldn't do something because it violates the Constitution. Trump spent an hour saying he didn't care, he was going to do it anyway. America, this is where you are. #SCOTUStariffs

We said we would build homes at scale and speed. That’s exactly what we’re doing — here in B.C. and right across Canada.

Oligarchs gonna oligarch

At least 6 killed, 21 wounded in Israeli strikes on eastern Lebanon, security sources say reut.rs/3ZJuVVI

So Danielle Smith doubled down on her "immigrants are the reason I can't balance a budget" bullshit today. UCP is going all in on racism and blaming immigrants and I am wondering if all the immigrants voting UCP are paying attention. My guess is no. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Only the countries with right wing dictators are acceptable. He's very mad at democratic Europe for their "liberal" views.

Hungary blocks €90 billion EU loan to Ukraine

Donald Trump illegally stole your money. He should give it back to you. Instead Trump is scheming up new ways to force Americans to pay even more.

It's shocking to me as a Canadian. It shocks every time I hear them claim that they won every war. They have zero concept of facts or reality.

The statutes to which Trump referred "he" still has tariff power put limits on what he can do, require him to follow certain processes, and put limits on the level and duration of what he can do. Most importantly, the court decision makes it clear: the power to tariff lies with the Congress.

One of several points in which Trump moved into raging madman territory. This man has his finger on the nuclear arsenal. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Q: Congress just voted down the Canadian tariffs last wee-- TRUMP: We lost 2 Republicans or 3 Republicans because they're not good Republicans

I am getting so sick of this asshole disrupting world order. Trump says new 10% global tariff is 'effective immediately' after Supreme Court loss 🤬 www.cbc.ca/news/world/l...

Trump: "I can do anything I want to do to them ... I'm allowed to destroy the country."

Trump suggests he won't refund companies who paid his illegal tariffs: Trump: "It's not discussed. We'll end up being in court for the next five years."

"I'm very good at reading language." People who are good at reading language never say this. They would never.

Straight madness. SCOTUS absolutely did not do that.
