Russian state TV host and top Kremlin propagandist Vladimir Solovyov again calls for the destruction of Ukrainian cities, urging bridges in Kyiv be bombed, the capital flooded, and cities like Kharkiv, Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Odesa, and Sumy wiped out.

A fire broke out in the village of Nikolskoe, Belgorod region, following a drone strike. Locals reported a powerful explosion just before the blaze.

🇵🇱 Polish FM Sikorski: Putin has underperformed. We thought he had the world’s second army and he thought it would be a cakewalk, a three-day operation. More than 10 years on, he’s still fighting in Donbas. I would not call that a victory.

🇵🇱🇪🇺 Polish FM Sikorski: I’m in favor of the European Union starting to have some defense capability of our own so that we don’t have to call on the United States in every emergency. We should be capable of sorting out some warlord in Libya or the Balkans next time around.

Foreign Minister of Poland Radosław Sikorski: "We think that if Putin succeeded in conquering Ukraine, we would be next. You know, we will eat grass rather than become a Russian colony again," @radek-sikorski.bsky.social said.

🇪🇺🇺🇦 Ukraine will receive another tranche of €6 billion from the European Union Of this amount, €4.1 billion will be provided under the ERA loans program, and another €1.9 billion will be provided under the Ukraine Facility mechanism.

Polish FM Sikorski says Ukraine is preparing for a three-year war, and believes Putin won’t be able to sustain it. Western partners are planning support over that timeframe, potentially using frozen Russian assets. He added Ukraine now produces nearly half of its own drones and cruise missiles.

The White House says the CPI and jobs reports were impaired due to the shutdown & may never be released Mighty convenient given we appear to be headed into a recession I guess this explains them using DoorDash data to tell us the economy is “great”! Release the real data

In case you were wondering why the government was shut down:

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

My dudes, you are going to have to deal with Russia anyway. They are invading the sky over your nuclear facilities already. They're invading the sky over NATO headquarters. What a bunch of fucking cowards compared to the Ukrainian

Well for one thing, Putin is the richest man in the world. He probably has trillions. No one knows. And some of his sidekicks too. Look how they loot their country. They have enough money for their own private armies so maybe they're footing the bill here

Fuck European cowards who didn't send troops at the get-go and refuse to release funds, and have no power to convince Trump to sell them weapons for Ukraine. Let THEM go down and let Ukraine survive

So now it's just another Fox network without the fox name

Just stuck in this cycle of stress and anxiety with no output for it and it’s the type of anxiety where you can’t bear to be in your body

I’ll keep it real with u fam it feels different this time and I have no idea how we will survive this winter

So apparently Dementia Don doesn’t know what magnets are 🤦‍♀️

The dehumanization tactics will only get worse Saying he’s a “criminal illegal alien & not a firefighter” is meant to make you see him as less than a person. They do the same thing to disabled people. We’re “useless eaters”. They want you to view others as expendable so they can commit atrocities

You wrecked the white house on us. Had to do SOMETHING. Phallic weather was second on our list.

Pardon my suddenly watery eyes, but a long-time regular just stopped in with this. He'd been reading, found this line, and thought of me, so he wrote it out and brought it in. "I am a handmaiden of civilization. I am a bookseller." 📚❤️
