KERNEN: We'd never be able to send anyone back if you needed a judicial warrant every single time RAND PAUL: Well, I don't think that's true. Obeying the 4th Amendment of the Constitution shouldn't be too difficult. It's something we fought the revolution over.

It builds on Alice’s great deep dive for @goodlawproject.org on how Orban’s thinktanks funded by Russian oil pay vast sums to Roger Scuton Legacy Foundation (whose directors include Michael Gove & James Orr) + £10k/month to Britain’s favourite AI-enhanced failed politician MattGPT

I have seen a lot of NIMBY selfishness in my time, but "my convenience matters more than cancer care" is a new low. Quite seriously tempted to email them and tell them as much.

A more accurate version of Trump's meme is circulating online.

Minister of Defence of Ukraine, announced a €4 billion defense agreement with Germany following talks with German Defense Minister. The package includes hundreds of Patriot missiles, 36 IRIS-T launchers, €300 million for deep-strike capabilities, and joint production of 5,000 Al-enabled drones.

Melanie said she met her husband at a NYC party in 1998. Just to be clear, she met Marla Maples' husband at an NYC party in 1998.

"At some point if the ship doesn’t turn around, maybe it will start taking on water or listing badly or hit an iceberg, or perhaps the iceberg has been there all along and is named Donald Trump."

One of the ways news media often fail us is by giving us the microscopic rather than the telescopic view. Everything I mention in this essay is well-documented, but the dots are mostly not connected to make visible this death by a thousand cuts our country is undergoing.

Deoccupied today: Hungary.

Can we also mention my former MP? She's been very loudly shilling for Victor Orban recently. I don't think that Miriam Cates has ever looked quite as foolish as she does tonight. Which is definitely saying something!

And yet there are people who still think Russia didn’t get Trump elected in 2016! Even though US Intelligence uncovered a plot called “Project Lakhta” ordered directly by Putin that spread good media about Trump and fake dirt about Hillary.

The Hungarian people wisely refused to listen to these grifting scumbags.

Kaine: "You don't sucker punch somebody in a bar and then blame your buddies when they don't join the fight with you. If the president wanted the support of allies, he should've respected them instead of putting tariffs on their economies and trash talking them."

France 🇫🇷 doubles electrification support to €10bn/year through 2030 — EVs, heat pumps, industry. The reason? The Strait of Hormuz crisis making fossil fuel dependence impossible to ignore. Geopolitical shocks don’t just raise prices. They change what’s politically possible.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I spent 16, SIXTEEN years fighting this crap. I can’t believe it 😭

Hungary has chosen Europe. Europe has always chosen Hungary. A country reclaims its European path. The Union grows stronger.

A sign in Seattle, Washington that reads: “Congress, remove Trump now.” 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😎💙😎

The end of Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is a victory not just for Hungary, but for people who value democracy around the world. Congratulations to Tisza, to incoming leader Péter Magyar, and to Hungarians everywhere.

The first American leader of the Catholic Church has fiercely criticized the war in Iran, deepening tensions between the United States and the Vatican.

❗️🇨🇦Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated: 'The days when our military sent 70 cents out of every dollar to the 🇺🇸United States are over.'

At the same time, the Russian authorities set the annual target at $50.5 billion. This, the intelligence service is sure, indicates a complete loss of control over the fiscal trajectory. The Treasury recorded revenues at $31.36 billion versus $59.79 billion in the Ministry of Finance’s reporting.

Badenough will surely be furious when she finds out that the Tories, including during her time in Cabinet, cut the army strength by over 25,000 between 2010 and 2024.

Russian losses 1130💥

“The United States has roughly 84,000 troops stationed across Europe, according to the Council on Foreign Relations, citing U.S. European Command (EUCOM).” & they were held back from fighting for Ukraine because the current US regime is compromised by Putin.

Thanks to Melania for re-centering Epstein!

Reports of a meeting between a Vatican representative and the Pentagon went viral, with allegations that the church had been warned to cease its criticism.

JUST IN: 🇬🇧🇷🇺 British Defense Minister says Russia shared intelligence with Iran and trained its forces in drone tactics.

We know better.

was that Melania speech one of Iran’s demands

❗️Putin will not stop if he gets Donbas, and the next attempt will be to seize the regional centers - Dnipro and Kharkiv, - Zelensky "Some Americans believe that Donbas means nothing to us. They do not want to admit that Putin will lie to them and that he can continue occupation after such steps."

Why is the Thiel puppet meddling in the election of another country 😏

A new U.S. study slams Trump for financially rewarding Russian companies aiding, indeed complicit in, the kidnap, and indoctrination, of Ukrainian children. Yale documents the role of Russian state energy giants Gazprom and Rosneft. full report: files-profile.medicine.yale.edu/documents/68...

Another 1,230 invaders have been killed, captured or disabled in the last 24 hours. The number of artillery systems and vehicles being hit remains above average. #StopRussia

1/2 We have finally been given the daily total for Ukraine's air defence against the overnight attack, although it started in the early hours of the morning and lasted until the afternoon. The top line is 579 projectiles were fired by Russia, 37 missiles and 542 drones.

Here's the radar map, showing approximate flight paths of this morning's missile attack on Ukraine. Korosten (see previous post), was the furthest west Russian struck in this terrorist attack.

Share this video far and wide, to remind everyone that #RussiaIsATerroristState At least one person's been killed in Korosten in the Zhytomyr region as Russia destroyed an entire street. Four people have been dragged alive from the rubble. The US is culpable by its inaction.

This is the moment the market gets it. Not climate. Not policy. Not ideology. Just pain at the pump. Once people switch… they don’t go back. As foretold—Used EV prices rising. ICE falling. More than just a trend— it’s the whole system flipping. #Bettrification

Khanna: "If we can chase Hillary Clinton, who hasn't been in office for 20 years, certainly we can get Pam Bondi to explain why she covered up documents, why we haven't had prosecutions"

Maybe it will happen today? My breakfast egg roll fortune cookie thinks it possible.

Each year nuclear adds only as much net global power capacity as renewables add every two days.

Likely the worst El Niño in 140 years. Harvests will be bad even without a fertilizer crisis. GOP will head to elections with scorching food inflation. And they will blame Belgium for not opening Hormuz. And 35% of Americans will be very angry at Belgium.

FBI notes from an interview with a woman who accused Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a teenager have not been publicly released, a report claims. 🧵 www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...

Novorossiysk looks exceptionally beautiful tonight.

I finally found a 16:9 version of this. Short-format horror...!

No strike on HMS Dragon or RFA Lyme Bay and RFA Tideforce is back in Portland according to Navy Lookout. All good. So deleting those posts (and never listening to anything Israel's Channel 12 says ever again!)

Russians are bragging about their trip to the US and the countries dissent into becoming a full blown Russian ally. 1/5

❗️At pre-election rallies in 🇭🇺Hungary, the crowd began chanting: "Russians — go home!" The historic slogan "Ruszkik haza" emerged during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and was directed against the Soviet occupation.

Putin and Orban coordinating on a desperate false flag operation that everyone knew was coming.
