Felix Rosenqvist of Sweden wins the closest Indianapolis 500 in history by a margin of 0.0233 seconds.

The American-led negotiations in Ukraine prolonged the war by encouraging Putin. The Russians dangled ludicrous business"deals" in front of Witkoff and Kushner who were too gullible to understand that they were being manipulated. Good to hear the US has abandoned this failed policy.

Donald Trump just stole $1.7B from us — and he's creating a slush fund to reward his political allies. I've never seen anything like this in my 50 years in politics. It makes Nixon look like a boy scout. www.cnbc.com/2026/05/18/t...

🇺🇦Ours are home!🇺🇦 95% of the Defenders returning today have been in Russian captivity since 2022. Some of them are Defenders of Mariupol.

Swedens first military satellite is now in operation, 515 kilometers above ground.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Ukraine’s Armed Forces are now the strongest and most powerful army in Europe. He said Ukrainians created new tactics, techniques and technologies, shaping a unique hybrid asymmetric war against Russia. #Ukraine

⚡️ Hungary to stop abusing EU veto rights, incoming foreign minister says. Hungary has too often used the veto "as political theater," Anita Orban said during a confirmation hearing in the Hungarian parliament.

"Zelensky’s 'permit' exposes the truth behind Russia's Victory Day sham: an empty display of strength hollowed out by fear, narrowed to a 70-by-330-meter square," writes Kyiv Independent's news editor Abbey Fenbert in this op-ed.

Tänk om Putin hade vetat 2022 att han fyra år in i specialoperationen skulle behöva be USA om hjälp att skydda Röda Torget från Ukraina.

New evidence obtained exclusively by The Economist suggests that Russia may have offered to supply Iran with innovative weapons in large enough numbers to inflict many casualties on American and allied forces econ.st/4nzXEHL Photo: Eyevine

Three of the five Russian shadow fleet ships detained by Sweden are anchored side by side near the Swedish port of Trelleborg, including today’s JIN HUI. Hopefully, the Swedish collection of sanctioned Russian vessels will continue to grow.

Äldrevårdens medarbetare har ofta kommit till Sverige som flyktingar. Nu krockar minskad invandring med ett ökat behov av personal. På äldreboendet Villa Dalénum på Lidingö är nio av tio i personalen från ett annat land. Läs Jenny Kallins och Anette Nantells reportage: www.dn.se/sverige/aldr...

Powell: "My concern is about the series of legal attacks on the Fed, which threaten our ability to conduct monetary policy without considering political factors. These legal actions by the administration are unprecedented and there are ongoing threats of additional ones."

Q: What do you say to the American people who question how much longer this will take? Obviously you know they're having higher gas prices TRUMP: You're such a disgrace. Did you hear what I just said? How many years was Vietnam?

❗️A 🇺🇦Ukrainian MiG-29MU1 fighter jet, using the 🇫🇷French guided air bomb AASM HAMMER, destroys a 🇷🇺Russian base.

Donald says we would have won the Vietnam War if he'd been president. Maybe he should have just served.

Yeah that will solve all of our problems…..

I never want to hear another person say “women are too emotional to lead.”

Ukrainian forces once again struck the Tuapse refinery, Krasnodar region, in Russia. The entire complex is on fire..

President Trump demands the Nobel Peace Prize for ending the Iran War eight times (and counting).

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

❗️For the first time in 14 years, King Carl XVI Gustaf of 🇸🇪Sweden has arrived in 🇺🇦Ukraine

I don't think my day can recover from "I thought it was me as a doctor." Let's call it a wrap.

Ma este Európa szíve erősebben dobog Magyarországon. Europe’s heart is beating stronger in Hungary tonight.

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

Hungarians close the Strait of Orban.

Two makes it a streak?

7 DAYS AGO: “OPEN THE FUCKIN’ STRAIT YOU CRAZY BASTARDS!” TODAY: “RIGHT, I’M CLOSING THE STRAIT YOU CRAZY BASTARDS!” 🤡😂🤡😂🤡😂🤡😂🤡😂🤡😂

We are in the absolute dumbest timeline.

Alex Jones is not holding back on his old pal Trump after Trump attacked him and others and called him stupid for opposing the war

BREAKING: After repeatedly pleading for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, Trump has just announced he will… *checks notes* …blockade the Strait of Hormuz.

It must be bad in the US for Trump when a member of his family is talking about Epstein to deflect the attention away from Iran

Det hade känts toppen om mannen med ansvar för vårt gemensamma NATO-försvar åtminstone hade en liten smula ryggrad som förband huvudet med rumpan.

1/ Many scenarios for the end of the Iran war suggest that Tehran will gain permanent control of the Strait of Hormuz. An analysis by JP Morgan suggests that Tehran could raise up to $90 billion a year this way, instantly making Iran one of the wealthiest Gulf economies. ⬇️

Money will be made by Iran, since your deal just allowed them to charge $2 million per ship to pass through—a fee that never existed prior to the war.

No regime change. Iran gains leverage over the Strait of Hormuz it didn’t previously have. Talk of charging for passage through one of the world’s most critical waterways. Sanctions relief creeping back in. And we’re calling this “world peace”? Get him out of office, get them all out!

Russia has not made a tactically significant advance in 2 months. The loss of Starlink and Telegram disruptions, have impacted C2 more than we previously assessed. This came at the same time Ukrainian mid-range strike capabilities significantly improved and wire-guided drone production caught up.

The President of the United States is threatening war crimes. That alone is illegal. He is unfit for office. I am urging the entire military command to remember your oath to the Constitution. Do not follow illegal orders. Do not commit war crimes. The stain and repercussions will be endless.
