PabloReports: What do you think of DHS suspending vehicular stops? AOC: A lot of the stuff they’re doing, they shouldn’t be doing in the first place. They should be facing consequences for killing innocent people in the streets, and they’re just trying to escape those consequences.

HOYER: Have you received any direction from OMB to SBA to not disburse funding that has been appropriated? LOEFFLER: I have been directed to follow the law, and in doing so I'm following the White House executive orders HOYER: You didn't answer the question

Global health inequities are a significant factor in increasing cancer rates. This is why we need health disparities research, which is now banned from federal funding. Another factor to consider is that cancer surveillance has improved. 🧪 archive.today/LNKxT

Love how Rex is only a year old but is significantly larger than his older sister Francis, who turns 6 in a few weeks. She lets him get away with a lot.

Just a thought: maybe our law enforcement professionals would have more time to keep politicians safe if they were not called out to control the people Farage sends into the streets to attack & threaten asylum seekers. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This will be Bluesky when we get that special obituary.

This is addressed to everyone, but especially Americans under the age of 30: Read dystopian novels. Read 1984, and Brave New World, and Fahrenheit 451, and White Noise, and—fuck—even Hunger Games. So many of you just aren’t getting what’s been happening just because you don’t read.

Jon gets it. He’ll make an excellent Vice President after his reelection & the election of GOVERNOR Keisha Lance Bottoms. 😇

I am totally fed up with this STUPID and DESTRUCTIVE so called administration. It’s a wrecking ball of idiocy, incompetence, ignorance and ineptitude. Enough already!!

Rachel Maddow’s description of Juan Sebastian Guerrero killed by ICE in Maine is a must see. She explains what happened w/out being graphic, and somehow that makes it even more powerful. Remember Alex, Pretti, and Renée? There have been no prosecutions. Still no justice. We know how this goes.

In free Donetsk overnight, Russia managed to hit another train locomotive. No-one was injured.

Today's 'Tanker Bingo' number is currently FIFTEEN, according to drone-leader "Magyar" The stats and video have not yet been finalised, so I'll bring you that later.

Here's another view of the flames and smoke engulfing Salavat after Ukraine's birds flew in to stop the flow of oil.

Last night I reported the hit on the Afipsky oil refinery in Krasnodar region, and there was also a second strike during the rest of the night. This one was way over in the east of Russia, at Salavat in Bashkortostan. #UkraineSanctions

As I reported last night, one missile fell next to a school (#10) in Kyiv's Darnitskyi district. The building, windows and sports grounds were all damaged.

So Kyiv was spared the worst with some anti ballistic air defence having appeared since the previous attack. Nonetheless there was at least one direct hit, debris falling elsewhere and still smoke hanging over Ukraine's capital this morning.

10 missiles and 135 drones were fired by Russia overnight. Ukraine shot down 2/2 of Kh-59 rockets, and 5 of 8 Iskander-M/S-400 ballistic types. Two others "disappeared" and 1 hit. 108/133 UAVs were stopped (2 still flying), a lower success rate of 81.2%

Russia's losses are down a little in the last 24 hours and I don't know the reason. It could be as simple as troop rotation, or trouble collating data from one unit. Still, 2 more air defence systems ruined and 1,120 invaders dead/disabled.

Another massive thread yesterday, ending last night with missile strikes on Kyiv, and Ukraine's drones again puncturing Russia's air defence. We also saw a European coalition to defend against ballistic missiles. Find out the details here: bsky.app/profile/twmc...

This Republican Senator is not even hiding the fact that Trump tells him how to vote. He's announcing it on national tv.

Day 1602 of Putin's Special Operation. But the indicted war criminal is now hanging on. His spokesman Peskov recently admitted it's no longer an "operation" but a full scale war (vs NATO) A subtle change which leads the way to full mobilisation. Here is Tuesday's daily🧵

Judge Kathleen Williams didn't just reject Trump's $1.776 billion "slush fund" deal—she dismantled it, step by careful step. It's one of the most consequential opinions of the year, and every page matters. I break down why. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

ZIONIST are embedding themselves in the Jewish community to try to take it over. PLEASE don't let them.

This dude is a racist POS.

ICE needs to be dissolved and everyone who killed another person needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for murder.

WHOA DHS does not say that the agent feared for his life… just the vague concern for “public safety.” So he killed him just because he did not want him in America, not because of any specific threat to agents?

Emergency anti-ICE protests have erupted in Biddeford, Maine where ICE has killed another person.

True statement.. #Epstein #Trump-EpsteinFiles

The anti-black racism needs to end. The Argentinian team is all white Italians and no one bats an eye. 60%-70% of France team have one or more black parents & idiots say they aren't French. They are. Messi is 100% Argentinian just as Mbappé is 100% French. What matters is how we act, not skin color.
