Morning from Kyiv. It was a bit loud at night, but the main target of 322 russian drones was Khmelnytskyi Oblast. I texted my mom, she’s fine. And so we live, in the land of constant “how are you”. I had a warcoffee.

The U.S. military said on Thursday it will send 200 Marines to Florida to provide administrative and logistical support to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. The Marines are the first wave of U.S. Northern Command's support to the immigration enforcement agency's mission, it said.

Not once did I feel ashamed of my vote for Biden. Best policies since FDR. Even in the case of Israel he chose the harder path and pursued a two state solution and tried to keep Netanyahu in check. Trump and Republic evil and incompetence is now rampant. Their victories are always losses for the USA

Kennedy’s wide-ranging “Make America Healthy Again” report, released last week, cited hundreds of studies, but a closer look by the news organization NOTUS found that some of those studies did not actually exist. 🙄

The Trump administration’s “Make America Healthy Again” report misinterprets some studies and cites others that don’t exist, according to the listed authors.
