In a famous interview for @skynewsaust.bsky.social,
Olena Zelenska joked that Volodymyr Zelenskyy forgot to tell her he was running in 2019.

These 7 years of leading Ukraine through challenges, including nearly 4 years of the full-scale invasion, were a challenge they took together as a coupleโค๏ธ

Letโ€™s be clear, Ghislaine Maxwell is and will always be a predator! It should be no surprise that she declined to answer questions. It also shouldnโ€™t surprise nobody that she is getting special treatment from - a predatorโ€ผ๏ธ

British Politicians Still Have Shame The Epstein case keeps threatening politiciansโ€”just not in the United States.

Opinion | A Lament for the Washington Post The most powerful capital in the world has no major fully functioning newspaper. Thatโ€™s a huge absence.

"Terrible things are happening outside.

At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes....

Families are torn apart...

Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared...

Everyone is scared."

When the president was calling all Somali immigrants "garbage" who "come from hell" and "contribute nothing" to America and therefore needed to go "back where they came from" did you ask him to "stop the rhetoric," Tom?

in Hungary do they have masked agents of the state gunning down civilians in the street? I feel like we need to dial up our authoritarian regime comparisons quite a bit from where they were a year ago

This is The Atlantic suggesting that Trump is changing course because he's decent. He is *not* decent. He's only reacting because he didn't like how killing innocent people on video was affecting his already low poll numbers.

If those poll numbers had gone up, the streets would be FULL of blood.

Melania documentary struggles in UK cinemas as Vue admits sales are โ€˜softโ€™ One ticket sold for premiere of film about US first lady at Vueโ€™s flagship London branch as insiders question launch strategy As film exhibitor strategies go, counter-programming is one of the most reliable. It worked for The Dark Knight and Mamma Mia!, released in the US on the same day in 2008, as well as for Dunkirk and Girls Trip in 2017. In 2023, Barbie and Oppenheimer leveraged the tactic to the tune of $2.5bn in combined box office takings. This week we could see another example as Amazon releases its authorised documentary about Melania Trump in more than 100 UK cinemas. There it will compete against an already-eclectic slate of releases including the Jason Statham action film Shelter, the ape horror Primate, Bradley Cooperโ€™s comedy-drama Is This Thing On? and Richard Linklaterโ€™s Jean-Luc Godard fictionalisation Nouvelle Vague.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

The Minnesota civil resistance campaign has been remarkably successful:

- The GOP governor candidate dropped out
- Numerous DOJ officials resigned
- GOP members of Congress are speaking out; business feels pressure
- Noem has been relieved of operational responsibility

The campaign is winning.

Most importantly, public opinion on ICE has shifted dramatically.

Democrats arenโ€™t going to vote to fund DHS/ICE. The public doesnโ€˜t approve of masked federal agents murdering American citizens in broad daylight.

The people of Minnesota are showing how itโ€™s done. We can win together.
