I do not live in your country but I have been following the war. Please do NOT agree to this "peace treaty". It will bring nothing. There is no intention from the US or Putin to honor anything. Please stand strong.

🚨BREAKING: Democrats won a major legal victory Friday as a federal district court permanently enjoined the U.S. Election Assistance Commission from implementing the provision in Donald Trump’s executive order demanding a proof-of-citizenship requirement on the federal voter registration form.

I've just done it. Thank you.

I will still get that news from other sources on Blue sky.

thanks!

when you say in one fell swoop, do you mean there’s a “block all” button or do I need to do them all individually? Thanks for the list!

Can anyone give me information about the "rumor" I have heard that the US government is now insinuating itself on the Blue Sky platform? I am especially interested in how this will affect the platform and users.

France defies Trump, recognizes Palestinian statehood despite U.S. pressure Secretary of State Marco Rubio tried to kill France’s recognition of Palestinian statehood, publicly lambasting it as a “gift to Hamas” ahead of the U.N. summit in New York.

Results matter.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued "cables to U.S. embassies and consulates around the world in June and this month to discourage attendance at France’s meetings and publicly slamming the effort as a “gift to Hamas.”

Yesterday, we went on a guided tour of a cave that is (literally) just down the road from us. We have lived here for 22 years and driven by it a million times and never gone in--until yesterday. Absolutely fascinating tour and information about this area and the cave itself. Glad we went!

I've just started reading this (finally)!

Let's play "guess the country":

I have heard that this was from 200 yards and in the neck. Surely that means someone who has been professionally trained? I think any shooting is unacceptable. But why focus on this person and not the hundreds of school children? Or the thousands in Gaza?

Unless you oppose right wing extremists now, while they are a minority, there will come a time when their intimidation will mean only the bravest will dare oppose them. All you need to do is be kind to people and treat everyone you meet as a human being www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvyU...

Trump is blocking the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

We just launched ads targeting nine Republicans telling them to support the Act and release the Epstein files — you can see our video here!

Why are federal agents covering their face? What are they hiding? Public servants should face the public!

@ofthebraveusa.bsky.social has a mobile billboard driving around D.C. demanding that federal agents take their masks off. Check it out!

Rep. Robert Garcia: "The Attorney General herself has said that President Trump is in the Epstein files."

Reid: Bondi is not a real AG. She just works for Trump.

All these U.S. attorneys — what’s her name from Fox (who I hope is sober) — she’s not a real U.S. attorney. She works for Trump. They’ve gutted the DOJ. The DOJ doesn’t exist. The FBI doesn’t exist. It’s all just Trump’s employees.

Director of European Transport Safety Council: "Europe now risks being flooded with oversized, under-regulated US pick-up trucks and SUVs – heavier, more dangerous to other car drivers, pedestrians and cyclists, and completely out of step with Europe’s vision for safer, more sustainable mobility.”

The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was 'given' by a foreign power to another people for the creation of a new state. The result was that many hundreds of thousands of innocent people were made permanently homeless. With evert new conflict their numbers have increased> How much longer is the world going to endure this spectacular wanton cruelty? It is abundantly clear that the refugees have very right to the homeland from which they were driven, and the denial of this right is at the heart of the continuing conflict. No people anywhere in the world would accept being expelled in masse from their own country; how can anyone require the people of Palestine to accept a punishment which nobody else would tolerate? A permanent settlement of the refugees in their homeland is an essential ingredient of any genuine settlement in the Middle East. Bertrand Russell 1970.

1970: Bertrand Russell on Palestine

this is so true. While the Republicans are horrid, the Democrats are lazy and asleep

People are just walking around, going about their lives, acting like the governments we elected in the global north aren’t, right now, facilitating one of the most unimaginable atrocities in human history.

Don’t let this die. Keep elevating this.
