I was born a half century ago during the Cold War in NATO country. My dad was an Army officer and he had to check his car every morning for “surprises” left by muscovites or their stooges. I was brought up to appreciate the help and support… 1/

NEWLY UNCOVERED AUDIO: Texas GOP US Senate candidate Ken Paxton calls the Uvalde shooting a "plan" by "God" and says "life is short” about children murdered in an elementary school. This man is vile.

A few years ago, the fear in European cities had a name, and the name was ISIS. Trucks on promenades, knives at Christmas markets, a threat that came from nowhere and belonged to no state. Today the threat has a headquarters, a budget and a chain of command, and it sits in Moscow. German investigators now believe the GRU was behind the arson attack in Munich on September 3, when incendiary devices were hurled from a moving car onto a construction site beside the offices of Rohde & Schwarz and Helsing, the company that supplies drones to Ukraine. Two Bulgarian nationals, the sort of disposable hired hands Russia prefers, are in custody. It follows the drone attack on Leipzig Airport, which makes two suspected GRU sabotage operations in Germany within a single month. Call it what it is. Russia is not merely fighting in Ukraine. It is waging war in Europe, one warehouse and one construction site at a time, and Europe keeps filing it under "incidents."

The only thing worse is not vaccinating them

Cry harder. Someone has to stand up for America to the world. It’s sure as hell not Donald Trump.

Hey, Truckers! -- Remember when diesel was so cheap under President Biden that you would caravan to DC,... waving your stupid Trump banners? How's that working out for you? 😛

They're sending Trump to campaign in Alabama and Oklahoma, and I am fucking dying laughing. He's being cast out into the frozen tundra politically. Man is officially a lame duck.

Some presidents leave behind a constitution, a peace treaty, a rebuilt nation or a footprint on the Moon. Newton gave us gravity and calculus, Einstein bent space and time, Darwin explained where we came from and Marie Curie discovered two elements and died of the work. Gutenberg put books in the hands of ordinary people, Pasteur and Fleming saved more lives than any general ever took, and Turing cracked the codes that shortened a world war before laying the foundations of the very machines we are talking about. Lincoln freed the slaves, Roosevelt beat the Depression and Hitler, Churchill held the line alone, Mandela walked out of prison and forgave, and Gorbachev let an empire go without firing a shot. Trump has decided AI should be called SI.

Only 48 hours after shaking hands with hundreds of world leaders and dignitaries in New York city, Zelensky consoles traumatized new mothers in a Kyiv maternity hospital right after it was targeted in a Russian attack. Some of these mothers brought new life into the world as Russians were pouring $150 million of missiles and drones onto the city.

Friendly reminder: russia is a state of bloody bastards and terrorists.

The Danish and Greenlandic PMs walking to the UN like normal human beings.

Rusland er allerede i krig mod os Forsvarets Efterretningstjeneste kom i dag med en af de mest alvorlige vurderinger af truslen fra Rusland i nyere tid. Men vi er desværre ikke klar. Vi mangler ikke politiske ambitioner, men vi mangler, at vi rent faktisk får et stærkt forsvar og en stærk forsvarsproduktion. For Rusland vil ifølge FE optrappe sin hybridkrig mod Vesten yderligere i de kommende måneder. Risikoen for et begrænset russisk militærangreb på et NATO-land, der grænser op til Rusland, er "lav, men stigende". En egentlig invasion vurderer FE fortsat som usandsynlig, men man vil ikke længere udelukke den. For ti dage siden affyrede et russisk krigsskib signalblus mod en dansk militærhelikopter ud for Gedser. Bagefter hædrede det russiske forsvarsministerium kaptajnen. I Tyskland har myndighederne udpeget Rusland som ansvarlig for et angrebsforsøg med en sprængstofdrone i Leipzig/Halle Lufthavn. Herhjemme har PET advaret om russiske planer om sabotage mod danske forsvarsvirksomheder. Det er den dystre virkelighed, vi står i. Og vi har desværre spildt alt for megen tid. Truslen fra Putin har været åbenlys siden Ruslands fuldskalainvasion af Ukraine i 2022 - og i øvrigt også før da. I Danmark har regeringen ikke formået at få åbnet en enkelt ammunitionsfabrik siden overfaldet på Ukraine, selvom alle advarselsklokker har kimet øredøvende, og Folketinget har stemt for at allokere enorme ressourcer til forsvarsområdet. Det er simpelthen ikke godt nok. At spilde dyrebar tid er en luksus, vi ikke kan tillade os længere. Det er alvor. Vi skal have langt mere fart på oprustningen. Beskytte vores kritiske infrastruktur. Og fastholde støtten til Ukraine, hvis soldater hver eneste dag svækker den krigsmaskine, der også truer os. Ruslands ledelse fører allerede hybridkrig mod Vesten. Det er på tide, at vi indretter os efter den virkelighed og handler derefter. Men alvoren må aldrig blive til afmagt. Vi danskere har et fantastisk og frit samfund, det i dén grad er værd at forsvare. Vi kan udrette utrolige ting, når vi tager os sammen og står sammen. Det kan og skal vi nu.

I am Dutch, living in the Nederlands, and Russia definitely is our enemy. 🇳🇱🇺🇦

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.

Angry about a photographer? A reporter?

They look so in love they can’t keep their hands off each other. 😂

Condemn? Condemn??? The EU should boycott the summit.

When Trump said in his campaign: "I will end the Ukraine war in 24 hours" All I heard was: "I'll cut all the aid, be a bitch to russia, Ukraine will surrender and I'll say I made peace." Anyone who thought he meant anything else is, frankly, an idiot.

wow removing the first lady and inserting yourself, good going Natalie
