I don't think Putin will stop the war under any other circumstances than a complete Russian victory (no more Ukraine) As long as the war goes on Putin can claim Russia can still win. If Russia lose after Putin is gone he believes his reputation will be intact because people will blame his successor.

As we approach the 5th year of claims "Ukraine will lose soon", my trolls are so convinced of this that they use maps showing Crimea as part of Ukraine.

What are all my trolls?

I Warned You About Trump. Here’s the Plan to Stop Him in 2026.
YouTube video by Democracy Docket I Warned You About Trump. Here’s the Plan to Stop Him in 2026.

📽️NEW: Trump is escalating efforts to undermine the 2026 midterms by openly embracing voter intimidation and federal interference.

@marcelias.bsky.social lays out actionable steps to stop election subversion, from banning mass voter challenges to denying officials who interfere with voting immunity👇

There is no way Senate Dems should vote for DHS funding while Republicans are threatening to nationalize elections and Trump is threatening to do it by executive order. ICE reforms are no longer enough. Their authoritarianism must be fought with every legislative lever available.

Trump surrounds himself with white nationalists, fraudsters, grifters, and sex abusers. Some are all four, including him.

Guardian view on Sir Jim Ratcliffe: Britain does not need political lectures from a billionaire tax exile | Editorial Editorial: Comments on the ‘colonisation of the UK’ by the co-owner of Manchester United were erroneous, crass and a gif

In 2020, Jim Ratcliffe moved his fortune to Monaco, saving himself an estimated £4 billion in tax.

In the same year, immigrants in the UK contributed around £20 billion in tax.

That says it all.

Hegseth blew up another boat and killed more people. We have no idea who they were or what they were doing because it’s just “trust me, bro” while we kill people.

Abortion bans have always been part of the attack on democracy The Trump administration has been laying the groundwork for obliterating reproductive rights from the start.

While Trump’s second term has been defined by attacks on democracy, it’s also seen an obliteration of reproductive rights led heedlessly by the GOP.

And Republicans will not stop, because they're dead set on controlling all freedoms, Planned Parenthood’s Lauren Blauvelt writes.

Frost: When the people can't trust their government, that is the sign of a backsliding democracy. And it's part of the reason why people like Kristi Noem should not be in these positions anymore.
