Well okay then. Ukrainian attack drones struck the NZNP Rostovsky oil products export terminal in Rostov-on-Don, setting the Russian fuel facility ablaze. The strike came just hours after the US eased sanctions on Russian diesel exports and Trump announced a major diesel deal with Putin. #Russia

Republican Rep. Michael McCaul criticized the lifting of sanctions on Russian oil, warning it “will only fund the Kremlin’s war machine” and encourage further violence and destruction. He said the Graham sanctions law gave Trump leverage over Russia and China. #Russia

"Not only are families barred from rejecting donated shares at the outset, they are also prohibited from selling those unwanted shares, in most cases for at least five years." You could call it a five-year plan.

Trump Accounts Were a GOOD Idea. He Just Made It an Icky One.
What started as a bipartisan savings concept now comes with stocks you can’t reject, a five-year lockup, and some very happy billionaires.

What is going on with our president? Calling people "THE ENEMY" for exercising their First Amendment rights is deeply disturbing. That's what autocratic leaders do, not American leaders. Doing so for such a trivial, vain matter is just nutty.

Britons kept in dark about scale of climate crisis, say viewers of ‘first-of-its-kind’ emergency briefing
Nine out of 10 people felt motivated to act after watching film outlining threats to food security, economy and public health The British government must be honest about the scale of the threat posed by climate and nature breakdown, researchers have said, after nine out of 10 people surveyed after watching a briefing on the issue felt more motivated to act. Last November, in the “first-of-its-kind national emergency briefing”, nine experts gave stark assessments in Westminster Hall in London of the scale of the changes needed in the UK to adapt to the rapidly changing climate and ecological landscape.

WHOA. This is big news. Mr. Soliman is a 31-year-old gay man from Egypt who came here at 3 with a green card. He lost his green card after a conviction, but an immigration judge found that he would be persecuted in Egypt and barred sending him there. He's locked in a hotel in Equatorial Guinea now.
A federal judge has ordered the Department of Homeland Security to return Ahmed Soliman to the United States, five months after he was expelled to Equatorial Guinea, a country where he has no ties, in a decision that could have far-reaching implications for thousands of others subjected to the Trump administration’s third-country removal scheme.

Arizona District Court Judge John C. Hinderaker, a Trump appointee, ruled that DHS violated the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment and “must facilitate Plaintiff’s release from custody in Equatorial Guinea and return to the United States and must ensure his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to Equatorial Guinea.”
