I don’t get it. Trump demanded on Truth Social that credit card CEOs lower their interest rates on their own by Jan 20. Why would legislation be needed? Don’t they listen to Trump?

🚨A majority of voters, including a majority of independents, do not agree with the Trump administration or with ICE that the ICE officer in Minneapolis was justified in shooting and killing Renee Good. Exclusive Zeteo/Data for Progress poll: zeteo.com/p/ice-renee-...

The DOJ Civil Rights Division used to investigate and sometimes prosecute federal and local law enforcement alleged to have violated the civil rights and liberties of citizens. It is out of that business now. Today it investigates grievances from white dudes on social media claiming victimhood.

This week's episode of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart is an important watch. America's constitutional republic has fallen and Trump is a dictator. youtu.be/-IcUQkvoRIc

Russia is waging exhausting position battles for small villages, destroyed towns and a frontline that moves in small increments (Russia occupied about 0,72% of Ukrainian territory in 2025, having killed and injured hundreds of thousands of its soldiers).

The full-scale Russian invasion into Ukraine lasts for 1418 days as of today. Ukraine continues defending ourselves from an aggressor with a territory 27 times larger than ours that has nuclear weapons. Russia has neither "battles for Berlin" or "liberation" of major Ukrainian cities.

1,418 days -this’s how long the war between the USSR& Nazi Germany lasted during WWII.Soviet,then Russian historyographers call this "The Great Patriotic War" In 1418 days,the Soviet army pushed Germans out of modern-day territories of Russia,Ukraine,Belarus,Moldova,Baltic countries,&reached Berlin

Trump continues to make billions from foreign govts and oligarchs with new deals happening around the world every month from people who want a lot from the US government and are getting what they want. And Trump is just getting started obscenely profiting off the presidency.

There is a new story daily about a criminal who donated $1 million to a Trump PAC for a pardon or a new business deal with a foreign govt/entity & Trump where that foreigner receives a huge benefit from the US govt. Corruption daily and Republicans turn a blind eye to all of it.

Marta Kostyuk spoke about Ukraine in the Brisbane final: "I play every day with pain in my heart.In Ukraine,thousands of people are without electricity&warm water right now.It’s -20 outside,it’s very painful to live in this reality.My sister is sleeping under 3blankets because it’s so cold at home"

There 3 are apparently NOT “grifting bums” in the MAGA movement.

А Russian soldier films foreign mercenaries singing and says: "Oh, look how many disposables there are. They’re even singing. So cheerful. No problem - once they’re sent to the assault, they’ll sing a different tune."

Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a strike on three Lukoil drilling platforms in the Caspian Sea. Direct hits have been recorded - Ukrainian General Staff. Glory!

Russian State Duma MP Gurulev on the critical state of Russia’s budget&emergency housing: "Today,the budget simply can’t cope.We have a massive budget deficit.They say everything is fine, that revenues are strong. But…It becomes absolutely clear that there is simply not enough money"

I’m pretty convinced any order to attack Greenland or Canada will be disobeyed by military leaders. Seriously. Not for sure but pretty sure Trump will find out who the military is really loyal to and it ain’t fatso in chief

Family seeks answers after ICE deported man to Costa Rica in vegetative state www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Behold, the Russian army in 2026. The Russian holding the camera calls them „disposables“, but in this they are all the same.

It’s really hard to believe that any senior person in the Trump admin thinks Kristi Noem as DHS director helps them in any way. If I was the most ardent Trump supporter, I would want her out. From her handling of FEMA to her ICE photo ops & interviews, all she does is hurt them.

What is it like to develop a long-range missile in Ukraine during the full-scale war? "It’s like repairing a car that is traveling at 130 miles per hour, while being shot at," describes Iryna Terekh, technical director of Fire Point, the company developing the Flamingo missile⤵️

Ukrainian special forces struck more Russian oil platforms in the Caspian Sea belonging to the Lukoil corporation.

When comparing this with the quoted the WW2, then the only conclusion is that Russia failed on an epic scale.

Despite the fact that Russia is still continuing this war of aggression, it is obvious that this war has caused just negative effects on Russia and its population. Ukraine in turn is suffering, as well, but managed to strengthen the Ukrainian identity. The state is intact.

Russia's full scale war against Ukraine, which Moscow started on 24th February of 2022, lasts now exactly as long as the German-Soviet war in WW2, exactly 1,418 days.

The response from Nuuk and Copenhagen was firm: the island is not an object of trade, and any form of engagement is possible only with the participation of Denmark and Greenland’s autonomous government.

With the Venezuela issue still unresolved, President Trump shifted attention to a new direction - Greenland. He reiterated the claim that "the United States needs Greenland" for defense purposes, citing Russian and Chinese presence⤵️

The Ukrainian government responded to the ongoing demonstrations and the violence committed by the Iranian regime: We call on the international community to consider tightening pressure on the Iranian regime for its violence against its people and support for Russia’s criminal war against Ukraine.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks. IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

The National Parks Service has defaced this year's annual pass with Donald Trump's face. And the nature-loving fascists will void your pass if you place a sticker over Donald's ugly, brooding mug.

The "How DARE you question Dear Leader's lies" defense.

Tacky Donald Trump has gold-painted the entrance to Mar-a-Lago à la The Oval Office. The original owner, Marjorie Merriweather Post, wasn't known for having understated tastes, but even she would vomit upon seeing such vulgarity.
