This is an important concept in our anti imperialist quest for utopia. When it comes to the crimes of the USSR, Russia is *not* the soviet union. When it comes to "defeating fascism" and having that UN seat, Russia *is* the soviet union. Think of it as Schroedinger's Soviet Union.

If you live in a country where the outcome of an election is actually unknown ahead of time, never take that for granted.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

the latest facility inspection was just 10 days ago, no issues reported. government's reaction to last night's fire? "explosives weren't properly stored and security was not effective enough". yeah, sure.

so... recently Morocco named a new highway after DJT, and days later a huge crowd of immigrants basically invaded Ceuta. Trump wholeheartedly hates the Spanish government and attacked it on multiple occasions. dunno, the whole thing is a bit fishy.

just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him

Trump’s threats to NATO are both empty & real. Empty bc he’s been doing this for years (& threats to annex Greenland are a graver danger than anything he says now in relation to Iran). Real because there’s nothing more palpable than his disdain for Europe and what it represents

Day 1498 of my 3 day war. The bad news is Ukraine has hit the oil terminal on the Baltic coast for the 4th time this week. The good news soon Russians won't be able to talk about it as the internet will be shut down. I remain a master strategist.

1/2. He took the greatest military force in history, lost a war to a middle power in a week, begged the world to save him, & demanded the media lie about this & everything else. I try, but at a simple human level I do not see how anyone mistakes this man’s almost supernatural weakness for strength.

Donald Trump letting you know how the authoritarian capture of the media is going, in case you missed it. Unlike other authoritarians in places like Hungary and Poland he has no worries about advertising his authoritarian take over of the media.

Four years have passed since Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine. Russia was supposed to win in three days. Instead, Ukraine reinvented modern warfare, built a drone industry, and can destroy a thousand Russian soldiers in a day. Ukraine can win.

Less than 14% of nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by ICE in Trump's first year back had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses, according to an internal DHS document obtained by CBS News — undermining the admin's claim that they're primarily targeting dangerous and violent criminals.

Less than 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records, document shows
The official DHS statistics, which had not been previously reported, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's crackdown.
