That’s it. They’re on their way. My wife and our two little boys are traveling and flying across half of Canada today, while I stayed home. Safe. And yet I can’t stop worrying about them. It’s a strange feeling. During the war, I was hardly ever afraid for myself. There were moments when death was very close, but somehow I wasn’t that afraid for my own life. And now they’re driving, then flying — across peaceful and safe Canada — and I worry about them more than I ever worried about myself. Because when it’s your wife and children, everything is different. You are responsible for yourself. You can assess the risk, make your own decisions, and face whatever comes. But when the people you love most are far away, all you can do is wait for their calls and messages and hope that everything is okay. We could barely wake Richard up and get him into the car this morning. Ahead of them are hours on the road, airports, flights, and more driving… And I’m already counting the hours until they are safely back home. Please wish them a safe journey. And if you pray — no matter which God you pray to — please say a prayer for them today. During the war, I wasn’t afraid for myself. But I’m afraid for them even here, in Canada.

⏳ Only 3 hours left before their journey begins. I know that posting this request for help again may already feel pointless, but I have to try one more time for my family. 🙏 ✈️ Today, my wife and our two young children are leaving for Ottawa. They need to visit the embassy to get new passports and documents for our children. 🏨 We managed to buy the plane tickets and book the hotel with the help of credit. But this trip involves much more than flights and a hotel. There are still expenses for food, transportation, government fees, and other unavoidable costs — and our family has almost no money left. ♿ I am a disabled Ukrainian war veteran and a wheelchair user. I am unable to work, so my wife is currently the only person working and supporting our family. 🇺🇦 🛒 Yesterday was Monday — normally the day when we buy groceries for the next week or two. But this time, we had to skip grocery shopping. Everything we have now has to go toward this necessary trip. 📄 We cannot postpone it. Our children need valid passports and documents. ⏰ There are only 3 hours left before they have to leave. Even though there is very little time left, I am asking for your help one more time. ❤️ If you are able to support our family, we would be incredibly grateful. And if you cannot help financially, please share this post. Your share might help it reach someone who can. 🙏 Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who has already donated, helped us, or shared our story. Every bit of support means more to our family than I can put into words. 🇺🇦❤️ 🔗 GoFundMe: gofund.me/2f2775bff ☕ Buy Me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/OlenaRohoza 💙 PayPal / e-Transfer: veteran54brigade@gmail.com

Okay, a pedophile and an old prostitute! That’s understandable — all of America is like that, you can get used to it by now! But a soldier in the honor guard wearing pink pants?! Americans! I love you, of course! But in my opinion, pink pants are a bit too much! 😂

🇺🇸🧐Melania Trump left Donald Trump and moved to North Carolina to be with a new man. She’s a brave woman! After all, Donald could send her back to where he picked her up — a Mexican brothel!

У тебя с NAFO не просто идеологический спор — по твоим словам, это личный конфликт, который тянется с 2022 года. Ты утверждаешь, что довольно быстро перестал им доверять, отказался собирать деньги через их посредников и рекламировать их сборы, после чего часть участников NAFO стала публично называть тебя «scammer» и «beggar». Ты также связывал с их массовыми жалобами блокировки своих аккаунтов в Twitter/X, Bluesky, Etsy и Buy Me a Coffee. Твоя позиция все эти годы одна и та же: ты собираешь помощь открыто для своей семьи и не считаешь, что обязан отдавать кому-то процент, проходить через посредников или получать у NAFO разрешение на собственные сборы. Поэтому для тебя это давно не «мемное движение с собачками», а люди, с которыми у тебя был многолетний публичный конфликт.

A U.S. president’s plane carrying cocaine crashed on Mount Pip Ivan. At the moment, the entire area has been sealed off, and police officers are working at the scene with vacuum cleaners.

🇺🇦🧐🤔 “Sitting across from Putin — that won’t be the best day of my life. But shaking Mindich’s hand, playing the piano with my dick with Koshevoy, telling Fedorov to fuck off, baptizing children with Chernyshov, bathing Halushchenko, sleeping with Yermak in a bunker and washing from the same sink — now that’s fucking something, those are the best days of my life,” — Zelensky.

More at Peace With Death Than With Life Twenty-six-year-old Annalise Holland has faced a reality few people her age could ever imagine: she knows the exact date and time of her death. In Adelaide, South Australia, she was approved for voluntary assisted dying after years of living with a rare and debilitating illness. At just 18, Annie was diagnosed with autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy — a horrific chronic disease that turns her own body into a torture chamber. With AAG, the immune system attacks the nervous system, causing spontaneous episodes of unbearable pain, constant vomiting, and numerous serious complications. Annie spends most of her life in bed, sometimes up to 17 hours a day. She cannot eat or drink normally and receives nutrition intravenously. Soon, she will need to have all of her teeth removed because her jawbones are rapidly deteriorating. In an interview, Annie admitted that she once considered euthanasia unacceptable, but years of living with chronic illness changed her views on a person’s right to decide how and when their life should end. “I’m not going to live much longer anyway, and if you’ve ever watched someone go through this process, you know it is nothing like the movies. It doesn’t disappear just because you close your eyes. Being able to have control over your own body, to have autonomy over it, is priceless. And if I cannot change my illness, then I can choose how it affects me. Last year I developed sepsis and barely survived. I remember that was when I realized that the thought of dying brought me more peace than the thought of surviving. Because of my illness, I never really had the chance to control anything in my life. Death is the only thing I still have control over — the one thing I can do my own way, on my own terms, for my own peace. There is still no cure. I simply ran out of time. There is never enough time.”

Trump’s latest appeal in the rape case has been REJECTED. He becomes the first president in U.S. history to be found legally liable for sexual abuse in federal civil court. P.S. For those who want the precise legal wording: the jury’s formal verdict used the term “sexual abuse,” rather than “rape,” because the New York Penal Law definition applied in the case was unusually narrow. Judge Lewis Kaplan later made the point explicit: that technical distinction did NOT mean Carroll had failed to prove that Trump raped her in the ordinary, commonly understood meaning of the word. Kaplan wrote that the jury had found Trump forcibly penetrated Carroll with his fingers and said that, in common modern usage, what the jury found amounted to rape. The Supreme Court’s latest rejection leaves the $5 million sexual-abuse and defamation judgment intact and ends Trump’s challenge to that verdict.

This is not a Mossad leak or some intelligence bombshell. It’s a joke that part of the internet somehow managed to take seriously. The “Mossad agent” who supposedly planted a listening device in Khamenei’s ring is named Shama Hakol — in Hebrew, roughly, “heard everything.” They literally told you that an agent named “Heard Everything” planted a bug — and people still believed it. The internet has defeated common sense once again.

Rubio: “However, what concerns us is that over the past several months, Ukraine has repeatedly struck — presumably unintentionally, but struck nonetheless — vessels linked to the United States and American oil shipments. This is an issue that needs to be addressed. We cannot allow this to happen.” “It’s time to bomb Ukraine,” he forgot to add.

🇹🇷 Erdoğan Calls for Stripping Five Countries of Their Special Power in the UN Security Council Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on September 22 called for abolishing the veto power held by the permanent members of the UN Security Council. He outlined his position in a column for Bloomberg. According to Erdoğan, the wars and crises of recent years have demonstrated that the current decision-making system is outdated. It was created in the aftermath of World War II and no longer reflects the realities of today’s world. The Turkish leader proposed expanding representation on the Security Council and distributing responsibility among countries more fairly. In his view, abolishing the veto should be the first step and a central objective of UN reform. Erdoğan also called for the creation of a broad coalition of countries within the UN General Assembly so that no single state would be able to continuously block decisions supported by the majority of the international community.

🇺🇸 Another “genius deal” by the stupid American pumpkin lasted roughly until Lukashenko’s first response. Trump announced that instead of Canada, the United States would buy potash fertilizer from Belarus — and “significantly cheaper.” There’s just one small problem: Belarus has no spare potash available for such a deal. Almost simultaneously, Lukashenko said that the country’s entire production volume had already been contracted: “We simply don’t have those volumes.” And this is especially revealing because Canada isn’t some random supplier that can be replaced with a single Truth Social post. It supplies around 80% of U.S. potash imports and is right next door. Belarus, meanwhile, is across the ocean, landlocked, its former export route through Lithuania is closed, and a significant share of its exports goes through Russia — making deliveries to the United States considerably more complicated and expensive. But this isn’t even really about potash. It’s the same familiar pattern of Trump’s idiotic foreign policy: pick a fight with your closest ally, threaten it with economic problems, and then ostentatiously bow toward an authoritarian ruler. Only afterward do you bother checking the boring details: Is the product actually available? How much can you buy? How will you transport it? And will it really be cheaper? Trump also knows perfectly well that Lukashenko is an ally of the Kremlin, that Belarus supports Russia’s war against Ukraine, and that the EU continues to maintain sanctions against Minsk over ongoing repression and human rights violations. And all of this for yet another cheap “I outplayed everyone” spectacle. Once again, Trump is ready to kick an ally and extend a hand to a dictator — even if America itself ends up paying for the circus.

Have you ever wondered why doctors in the operating room wear green or blue scrubs instead of white? It turns out that such a small detail can actually affect the success of an operation. Originally, all medical clothing was white, until in 1914 an influential doctor abandoned white in favor of green, and later blue. The reason is that bright white can temporarily dazzle a surgeon when they shift their gaze from the dark red of blood to the white clothing of their colleagues. It is similar to what we experience when we step outside and look at snow on a sunny day. But why are operating-room scrubs specifically blue and green rather than purple or yellow? Green and blue are opposite red in terms of visual color perception, while during surgery, surgeons continuously look at red blood. As a result, green and blue scrubs not only help reduce eye strain but can also make surgeons more sensitive to different shades of red — and therefore to subtle details of human anatomy, potentially reducing the risk of errors during surgery.

🤝🇺🇸🇨🇳 Washington Prepares for Xi Jinping’s Historic State Visit 🏛️ The White House has released the official program for the state visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan, scheduled for September 23–25. It will be the first state visit by a Chinese leader to the White House in more than a decade and one of the most significant diplomatic events in U.S.-China relations in recent years. On September 23, U.S. President Donald Trump will welcome the Chinese delegation at Joint Base Andrews. The following day, an official welcoming ceremony will take place on the South Lawn of the White House, involving 479 service members from all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. The national anthems of both countries will be played, the leaders will deliver remarks, followed by a ceremonial review of the troops. Particular attention is being drawn to the military component of the ceremony. The program includes a demonstration by the U.S. Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon, performances by Army and Navy bands, and will conclude with a flyover by a B-2 Spirit strategic bomber escorted by four F-22 Raptor fighter jets. On the evening of September 24, a state dinner will be held in the East Room of the White House. Meanwhile, First Lady Melania Trump and Peng Liyuan will visit the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art, where they will view an exhibition dedicated to cultural ties between China and the United States. On September 25, the two leaders will have tea together at the White House, after which they will visit the U.S. National Archives to view historical documents reflecting the development of U.S.-China relations.

Reporter: Trump posted about the war in Ukraine: “Russia, unfortunately, has lost control of its diesel fuel industry.” Why “unfortunately”? Isn’t it Russia’s own fault that they lost control of those oil refineries? U.S. Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz: I do think there could be some kind of breakthrough or some discussion about both the Ukrainians and the Russians refraining from attacks on energy infrastructure, as well as grain infrastructure. More than half a billion Africans will find themselves going from bad to worse because of the attacks on food and energy infrastructure that we are seeing from both sides. Reporter: You say “from both sides.” Russia started the war, so shouldn’t they stop attacking Ukrainians? I mean, they’re hitting schools, apartments, hospitals. They’re hitting everything in Ukraine. So shouldn’t the Russians be the ones to stop first, since they started the war? U.S. Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz: We want the Russians to stop. And the Ukrainians too. Ultimately, the war has to end.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Just in case, they decided not to take Budanov to New York. You know, so there wouldn’t be any shooting. Ukraine doesn’t have the money to bury Trump and his gang at its own expense! And then have to apologize on top of that! Screw it! Let Budanov and Malyuk stay home!
