Zelenskyy: "When our strikes reached Yandex data centers, it suddenly became little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. Many people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, fewer provocations because there were fewer bots. It's pretty clear where those bots were coming from.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

This is exactly what ICE said: "Parra-Hernandez ran in front of an ICE vehicle and was struck." Now watch the video. They're no other word for it: They're lying.

There would have been no successful Apollo program without the brilliance & dedication of Margaret Hamilton, who built the software from nothing. "We had to find a way, and we did. Looking back, we were the luckiest people in the world; there was no choice but to be pioneers.” Godspeed, Mrs Hamilton

People who don't "understand" homosexual people, transgender people, climate change, or diversity are odd. I don't understand quantum physics, but I know that it's just because I don't have enough knowledge or aren't bright enough to understand it, not because it's a lie and doesn't exist.
