New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4. One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

Host: 7 in 10 Americans think raising children is too expensive. Nearly a year into Trump's second term, food and housing costs have surged.

Its just damn humiliating to be an American these days. I know we must have some normally intelligent leaders out there somewhere.

Sweden's Foreign Minister has said, and shown, the truth about allies' support for Ukraine. Maria Stenergard pointed out that during the war, Russia has received more from the EU than Ukraine has.

Trump agreed to this and more in the DimWit "peace" plan: Amnesty for Russian war crimes Writing Donbas + Crimea out of Ukraine constitution More than halving UKR army/No long-range weapons Foregoing NATO ambitions No foreign troops in UKR Removal of all Russian sanctions Fair, right?

I'm posting a clip here of a 4-minute video, filmed by a Russian soldier. He sounds pretty old, thoroughly depressed and his commentary reveals "We just walk over corpses. Three battalions already killed. And now we follow" There are indeed many bodies in the whole clip - I blurred one in this clip

So who are the "Ukraine officials" referred to by many as having been consulted, in the 28-point 'DimWit' plan? Why, none other than Yermak. I'm told he didn't agree, but promised 'honest discussions' - presumably to get personal US support just as he's at risk of being fired.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 I highly recommend reading the next 3 posts by @twmcltd.bsky.social and reposting them. The current American administration is despicable. 🇳🇱🇧🇪 De volgende 3 berichten in Tims draadje. Laten duidelijk zien waar de misselijkmakende doelen liggen van de huidige 🇺🇸 regering: genocide is een feestje 🤮

How have we failed so spectacularly not to support a democracy by giving it the tools it needs to bomb the shit out of the russian factories and airfields in 4 fucking years. The 'West' needs to be ashamed of it self.

Day 1366 of the war in Europe is the start of two days of mourning in a small city in Ukraine which suffered over 160 killed and injured in a single Russia attack 24 hours ago. As the war crimes mount, Trump approves a mad-hat simpleton's plan to end the war Here's THE daily🧵

Well, well. VENEZUELA doesn't produce fentanyl. Tell those 80+ dead guys. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/19/u...

Elevated levels of PFAS, or "forever chemicals," have been found in birds on the south shore of the Great Salt Lake. More than 15,000 duck hunters in Utah may have been exposed to elevated PFAS in their food. "Food they had every reason to believe was nourishing, wild food.”

Donald Trump might wanna think twice before spreading the idea that "a lot of people don't like him" justifies assassination. For, you know... reasons. www.axios.com/2025/11/18/t... #Jamal #Khashoggi #MBS #kushner #saudi #uspoli #un #cia #Mohammed #Salman #trump #wapo #washington #post #prince #US

That Saudi had a journalist murdered you pos. You saved a murderer

You know about Trump and Zelesnkyy’s call, but have you heard about the call between Trump and the Saudi Crown Prince? Watch my statement below. Mr. President, release the transcript.

Today a morally repugnant reptile appeared at a press event in the Oval Office The Saudi prince who murdered Jamal Khashoggi was there with him

ABC Mary Bruce deserves a Pulitzer Prize for asking the Saudi Prince this question:

About today... Trump's anti-press outburst hits differently with a Saudi prince by his side

Then it was traitorous the first time. July 16, 2018

And the second time. But we allowed it to continue. January 30, 2023

Now that some Republicans have found their spine, perhaps they will hold Yertle accountable on the foreign emoluments law. He seems to be flagrantly breaking it without a peep from his party leadership that controls Congress.

This joyful photo of Kamala Harris and Justin Trudeau was taken four years ago today. 💙 Four years later and the president is welcoming the Saudi Prince while isolating our Canadian friends and other allies.

Have you?

Ukraine is reporting a new war crime in Pokrovsk. The Security Service says it's identified Russia soldiers disguising themselves as civilians to enter the town on 10 November, "using using residents as a human shield."

Pavlohrad is coming under a big drone-swarm attack. Some explosions have already been heard. More drones are approaching the city.

Welcome to THE daily Ukraine thread. Every single day - since Day 1 of the full invasion - a handy thread with all the Fact Checked news in one place. And now it's Day 1364 - please help Ukraine get a just peace, otherwise war won't end, it will pause before Russia resumes.

Coordinator of Ukraine’s POW Treatment HQ: Russia has forcibly mobilized over 46,000 Ukrainian citizens from occupied territories into its armed forces. As a result, approximately one in six captured Russian soldiers turns out to be a Ukrainian citizen.

President Donald Trump lashed out at a reporter Friday after being asked about Jeffrey Epstein, hurling an insult at her and refusing to answer her question about efforts to release files on the disgraced financier.

If a trade mark lapses in russia, the government lets anyone re-register it and use it without the international owners consent. A number of western companies have re-registered their trademarks to try and prevent this. It doesn't necessarily mean they plan to move back in.

President Zelenskyy has posted about the historic deal signed with France today. It was imperative Ukraine did not buy US jets in view of possible restrictions in their usage. Again, Donald Trump may have lost the United States defence industry contracts. #WinningBigly

Do you own a Hyundai, thinking of buying one?Have stock? Help Ukraine by writing your dealership, your newspaper, the Hyundai America company to object strongly to Hyundai's move into Russia.

For crying out loud! I just knew trump's sanction of russia was too good to be true. That heartless SOB.

President Donald Trump has said he believes Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s days are numbered, and that land strikes inside Venezuela are possible.

Israel breaching international law by limiting Gaza aid, says Unrwa official

Russia launched three ballistic missiles over Ukraine during overnight attacks from Friday into Saturday, as the death toll over the past 24 hours rose to nine, according to Ukrainian authorities.

The State Department is required to publish “a thorough, accurate, and reliable” history of U.S. foreign policy within 30 years of the events. But it deleted documents about the risk of inadvertent nuclear war. https://wapo.st/49TiRY4

Detainees deported by Trump to El Salvador tell of harrowing prison abuse and torture

OPINION: The American media refuses to call them out, so I guess the job falls to me: you can cut the racism with a knife, it's so thick.

Look at this man. He is Serhiy Vlasenko, one of Ukraine's incredible rescue workers. In the early hours today he was called to fight fire in his own house in Kyiv. His own apartment completely destroyed. Thankfully Serhiy's mother, wife & children aged 5 and 8 months, escaped.

Please don't take things for granted. I miss sleep and turn down work to devote as much time as is needed to these threads. I don't copy and paste, I research, add context, correct, analyse and fact-check. If you can, please send me a coffee🙏 ko-fi.com/twmcltd

The first few hours of Day 1360 of Russia's genocidal war started with Ukrainians in shelters. More innocent lives have been claimed by the Moscow horde. The west unable or unwilling to stop the slaughter despite 1000s of war crimes. We're not incapable, must not be unwilling.
