This is Lindsey Graham 's Obituary. He was a traitor, coward, liar, ok fat boy/couchfucker disparaged Zelensky for not wearing a suit saying he thought the US could never do business with Ukraine again. I'll never forget that. I'll never forgive the motherfuckers as long as I draw breath. 🇺🇦💀🇺🇦 1

But it really does seem that there is a very arrogant disposition on the part of my fellow Europeans about this topic, that many would sooner suffer endless preventable heat deaths rather than admit the Americans were right about this one thing. A very weird (and hot) hill to die on, I'm sure.

June heatwave killed up to 440 people a day in England and Wales, data suggests
Extreme temperatures in May and June led to about 2,700 lost lives in total with climate crisis adding 3C to 4C The heatwave that affected England and Wales in June killed about 440 people a day during its three-day peak, scientists have estimated. Across the whole of the June heatwave, plus the one in May, about 2,700 people lost their lives prematurely. The data starkly illustrates the danger of extreme heat, which is being supercharged by the climate crisis. More than 40% of the people affected would not have died without the 1.4C of human-caused global heating to date, according to the analysis. For comparison, about four people die each day as a result of road traffic collisions and about 35 a day because of alcohol and drug use, according to government statistics. Continue reading...

'Die Together': Ukraine's LGBTQ Soldiers Fighting Russia - and for Their Rights
Armed with megaphones, glitter and rainbow banners, one group stood out in the colourful crowd of Kyiv Pride: soldiers in military fatigues, demanding their right to be considered a “part of Ukraine”. Hundreds of LGBTQ fighters have joined the Ukrainian army to fend off the Russian invasion, which has killed hundreds of thousands and ravaged swathes of the country. Many are fighting on two fronts: with guns and drones against Moscow’s troops, and with pickets and protests for the right to love in a country that does not recognise their relationships. “It’s easier for me to get permission to kill someone than to marry the person I love,” said Victoria, a soldier AFP met near the front in eastern Ukraine. Ukraine does not allow or recognise same-sex marriages or civil unions. In April, lawmakers advanced a new civil code that would uphold the bans -- drawing condemnation from international watchdogs and stoking fears of a further rollback of freedoms. For LGBTQ soldiers, the rules mean if they are wounded or killed in combat, their partners are denied compensation payments or even the right to visit them in hospital. - ‘Three steps back’ - Support for Ukraine’s LGBTQ community has been...

He came to Ukraine 10 times. Supposedly our Ally yet he ensured the sanctions were lifted and new sanctions were never put into effect. He ensured $400 million worth of armament was never delivered to us that was allocated to us by Congress. That's not an ally. That's an enemy.

If you are an elected official, your job is to represent reality as experienced by your constituents. If what you choose to say about a senator who spent decades advancing policies that harmed millions of people is, “he was great fun at picnics,”’ you have abdicated your responsibility as a leader.

On Tuesday, an ICE officer shot and killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston. Today, the government is pressuring the only three eyewitnesses to sign self-deportation orders. I spent 15 years as a public defender. If anyone else did this, we'd call it witness tampering.
