Farmers over billionaires is about standing up to the power of the biggest corporations. The system is rigged for the big agribusinesses and the big food manufacturers who are feeding our kids ultra-processed foods.

MFA of Ukraine = @ @MFA_Ukraine •4h

Russia launched a cynical attack against Ukraine on October 7, firing around 70 missiles - many of them ballistic - along with Shahed drones. The attacks hit Kyiv and 12 regions, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens.
In Pryluky, Chernihiv region, a Russian strike destroyed a five-storey residential building, killing 13 people, including three children. At least 43 people were injured, including children.
Nine apartment buildings were damaged in Dnipro and Kremenchuk. Two people were killed and 27 more injured. Two more people were killed in Kyiv and two in Oleksandriia.
Russian ballistic missiles remain one of the biggest threats. Ukraine urgently needs more air defence, including Patriot missiles, to protect lives.

Something unprecedented happened during my visit to the Gulf. For the first time in 20 years in Congress, I was denied entry to U.S. military facilities and even meetings with military leaders. An order from Hegseth - that applies to both parties - to hide the cost of the war.

At a time in history when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, democracy, and decency, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction — fawning over the most dangerous authoritarian America has ever witnessed. Do not forget this.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Dear @elonmusk,
I'm the French candidate to the French presidency you want to « shut down for treason against France » (what does that even mean ...).
France does not need lessons in patriotism from a foreign billionaire who thinks he gets to decide which European political leaders should be silenced.
Democracy is not for sale. Not even to the richest man in the world.
I'd rather be accused of defending democracy than of trying to buy it.

• Translated from Romanian Show original
Romania strongly condemns the hostile cyber activities carried out by groups controlled by the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, which have targeted member states of the European Union, NATO allies, and their partners, including our country.
Alongside the European Union and NATO, we send a clear message: such attacks, which target public institutions, critical infrastructure, and sensitive information, are unacceptable.
They are part of a broader hybrid campaign aimed at undermining the stability of our democracies, fueling divisions in society and among allies, and testing the cohesion of the European Union and NATO.
Romania will continue to act, together with its allies and partners, to strengthen cybersecurity and defend the values, security, and unity of the Euro-Atlantic community.
