Horodetskogo Street, Kyiv, 1927. This is what Russia is trying to erase Not just buildings and infrastructure, but a century of European identity that predates the Soviet Union and predates the war 📷 Historical Kyiv

This is insane....

You voted against scrapping zero hour contracts. You voted against banning fire and rehire. You voted against day one sick pay for workers. You said the minimum wage was too high for young people. Reform politicians openly say they don't like trade unions. You will always put the interests of your offshore crypto billionaire donors ahead of workers.

This is Oleh. He was 2. russia decided that was enough. A missile hit his home, killing Oleh, his mother, and 14 neighbors. He never saw peace. Never started school. Never had a future. His life ended before it began.

There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been destroyed, 100% of the population displaced, and 50% of the deaths children. Call it what it is: GENOCIDE.

Israel dropped a bomb on Mona’s home in Mansouri, South Lebanon, today. Mona is not a fighter. She is an environmental activist who dedicated her life to protecting endangered sea turtles. Because of Israel, Mona is now fighting for her life in a hospital bed.

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began. The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start. Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have. If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

There is a direct correlation between how conservative a state is, and how high their murder rate is. 86% of states with murder rates above 6 voted for Donald Trump. 100% of states with murder rates above 8 voted for Donald Trump. 63% of states with murder rates below 4 voted for Kamala Harris.

RT @abierkhatib: @dannydanon If this is how what u commit on the peaceful Shabbat, I can only imagine what u do on regular days. Ur perver…

🇺🇸🇮🇱 Republicans and Democrats just UNITED to push deeper US military integration with Israel Ro Khanna: “Now let me just be clear, Mr. Netanyahu actually wrote to a member of Congress to put this section 224 into the bill.” The House voted on Section 224 of the NDAA, a measure expanding US Israeli military cooperation, especially on CYBERWEAPONS. Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Sarah Jacobs tried to remove it. They LOST. Almost the entire House backed the measure.

🚨 The situation is completely getting out of control. Albania is erupting for the second consecutive day in angry mass protests against the Kushner land seizure deal worth $4 billion. 🇦🇱 The Albanian people refuse to become a new Palestine. 💥"

🚨 The House just passed the Ukraine Support Act by a vote of 226-195 to provide military aid to Ukraine and impose tough sanctions on Russia.

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it. More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months. And here’s the part that should make your blood boil. Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence. The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it. Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price. We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us. wapo.st/3QmJjSz

Kyiv is burning. Four killed in Kyiv, six in Dnipro. Dozens injured. Homes, offices, and businesses hit. How is Russia still able to terrorize European capital night after night while Ukraine is still asking for more air defense? I have no words.

💔 Dnipro. This 3-year-old boy was just asleep in his own bed. We don’t hate russia enough.

One of the most terrifying images in history: a transformation from life to death. Gaza in 2023 and 2026!

The UK government has barred Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from entering the country over their criticism of Israel. Meanwhile, war criminal Isaac Herzog, whose statements were cited in the ICJ genocide case against Israel, was welcomed at Downing Street with open arms. I’ve written to Shabana Mahmood demanding these bans be reversed immediately:

Russians have erased entire Ukrainian cities to the ground. The only thing russia brings is death and destruction, which they call “liberation”. We must help Ukraine survive this genocide and push this evil back into Mordor. Stand with Ukraine!

More than 500 personnel of the State Emergency Service have been involved in dealing with the aftermath of Russia’s overnight attack on our cities and communities. The main strike was on Kyiv, where dozens of residential buildings and other purely civilian infrastructure were damaged again. Tragically, four people have been reported killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. At this moment, 38 people are in hospitals in the capital, and all of them are receiving the necessary care. In Dnipro, a search and rescue operation is ongoing at the site of a four-story apartment building. Part of the building was essentially demolished. Nine people were killed in this attack, including a child. Thirty-five people were injured in the city. The fate of six more people remains unknown. The search for them will continue for as long as necessary. The Russians also struck energy facilities in the Kharkiv region and critical infrastructure in Kharkiv. Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhia, Poltava, Sumy, Chernihiv, and Khmelnytskyi regions also came under attack. In total, overnight Russia launched 656 attack drones and 73 missiles of various types at our people – ballistic, cruise, and anti-ship missiles. A large-scale attack and an absolutely clear statement from Russia: if Ukraine is not protected from ballistic and other missile strikes, these attacks will continue. Europe needs its own anti-ballistic defense so that this war can finally be brought to an end. And assistance from the United States in supplying missiles for Patriot systems is absolutely necessary. We are counting on the support of our partners and on effective responses to today’s attack. And I thank all Ukrainian men and women for not ignoring air raid alerts. Glory to Ukraine!

Today's Phantastic Phind. With this you can answer those incessant questions: "Mummy, who's Urizen?" "What's a Zoa?" "Do I have a Nobodaddy?" It needs a bit of TLC, which can be done with my Book Repair Kit (scissors & binding tape). Been wanting a copy of this for years. 🥸
