⚡️ "For three days, we didn't attack any energy or diesel systems of Russia, and for three days they attacked us," Zelenskyy said. Speaking to the Financial Times, the Ukrainian president stressed that Russia directly targeted key energy infrastructure across the country during the pause.

🇺🇸🇺🇦🚀 Zelensky: Can you give me missiles for Patriot? Because when I don't attack them, because you asked me, they will attack me. It's fair if you give me something with which to defend myself. That's the minimum I'm asking for. And when I'm asking this, your answer is blocking Starlink.

Trump says people who expose his administration’s crimes should be shot, referring to them as “leakers.” He then points at the media, saying they are “almost like leakers,” before praising supporters he claims would stand by him even if he murdered someone.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Zelensky: We learned about Trump's energy ceasefire from the media. Why doesn't America conclude a diesel deal with Ukraine? We're influencing whether these ships are moving. We define whether the refineries are working.

There is, writes @davidfrum.bsky.social, an "implicit quid pro quo in these lucrative deals offered to Trump’s family and friends: If you compel Ukraine to surrender, we will enrich you beyond reckoning" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Trump Is an Easy Mark for Putin
The president’s diesel deal sells out Ukraine, and does nothing for Americans.

4% increase in imports from Canada would easily replace the entire physical volume of diesel “negotiated” in the new US-Russia pact.

Does “not recommend” actually prevent us from choosing to vaccinate our kids once it becomes a private paid choice? I’d be happy to pay and do annual shots just as with the flu vaccine

Matt ‘cosplay’ Canavan is criticising schools for teaching boys about basic consent. He thinks this is “feminising” our schools, as if teaching boys to be respectful is feminine, & therefore bad. Given violence against women & girls is ubiquitous, boys need to learn that it’s NOT ok to be abusive.

Looks like the Pentagon has finally realized that having a third of active duty troops having long COVID is not sustainable. Better late than never. I hope they don't waste too much of that money reinventing the wheel. We do have nearly seven years of research that they should review.

Over the last 25 years, six people who contracted measles in the U.S. died from it. A model built by Stanford researchers predicts that if Americans could no longer get the vaccine, measles could kill about 290,000 people in the next 25 years. (Published March)

Trump is a buffoon but RFK got exactly what he wanted here. The data are pretty clear that if you spread the vaccine appointments out then parents don’t come back for them. They don’t want kids to get the vaccines.

I agree with your analysis yet the confounding reality is that the ON primary vote has continued to tick upwards slightly post NPC speech. There seems to be a complete disconnect between acceptance (actually rejection) of ON policies and their projected primary vote based on reputable polling.
