Sandu’s pro-European party takes majority in Moldovan parliamentary elections The EU has warned that Moldova is enduring "an unprecedented campaign of disinformation" from Russia ahead of the election.

⚑️Sandu’s pro-European party takes majority in Moldovan parliamentary elections.

With 99.91% of ballots counted, Action and Solidarity Party (PAS) secured 50.16% of the vote, giving it a clear lead and reaffirming public support for Sandu’s push toward European integration.

Oh good at least it is (probably & relatively) silly, useless, expensive, petty, and harmful rather than large scale catastrophic like calling them in for a reichswehr oath to Trump.

And presumably further alienates military from Regime.

Former FBI Director James Comey indicted days after Trump demanded his DOJ move 'now' to prosecute enemies Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted just days after President Trump issued a public demand for the DOJ to act "now" to prosecute him, sources say.

ABC News says James Comey has been indicted in a transparently political case, shortly after other prosecutors who couldn’t justify a charge against him were fired by President Trump. abcnews.go.com/US/former-fb...

The WHITE HOUSE
Section 1. Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence. Heinous assassinations and other acts of political violence in the United States have dramatically increased in recent years. Even in the aftermath of the horrifying assassination of Charlie Kirk, some individuals who adhered to the alleged shooter's ideology embraced and cheered this evil murder while actively encouraging more political violence. This was preceded by the 2024 assassination of a senior healthcare executive and the 2022 assassination attempt against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Two separate assassination attempts against my own life in less than 3 months took place during the 2024 Presidential election cycle. Riots in Los Angeles and Portland reflect a more than 1,000 percent increase in attacks on U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers since January 21, 2025, compared to the same period last year. Just yesterday, a shooting targeting an ICE facility in Dallas resulted in multiple casualties.
Separate anti-police and "criminal justice" riots have left many people dead and injured and inflicted over $2 billion in property damage nationwide.

As per usual: no mention of political violence against Democrats. The armed man near Kavanaugh’s house who turned himself in becomes an β€œassassination attempt” while the actual assassination of Melissa Hortman not mentioned. Attacks on ICE facilities are political violence but not attacks on CDC.

Meanwhile in Sweden this was perfectly normal behaviour. Was a bit of a culture shock moving there for school and in one of my first seminars both the professor and another of the PhD students were casually taking snus.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

Trump has designated 'antifa' a terrorist group. Here are the questions that raises Current law provides for the designation of some groups as "foreign terrorist organizations," but no similar process exists for domestic groups.

The designation of ANTIFA as a terrorist organization focuses on financing: there's a broad array of civil society organizations that could be targeted because of their anti-fascist work. This includes both donors and funders for various groups.

Drone Strike in Haiti Kills 8 Children at a Birthday Party

"In March, the authorities in Haiti hired foreign military contractors to operate armed drones to target gangs that terrorize the capital, Port-au-Prince. The contractors work for a company owned by Erik Prince, a prominent supporter of President Trump."

Opinion | Trump’s reckless announcement linking Tylenol and autism is already doing major damage Touting a possible cure with little evidence only gives loved ones of autistic people false hope.

Trump and RFK Jr.’s nonsense about Tylenol and autism isn’t just about spreading misinformation: it is about dismantling the decades of work that it took to reorient society from fearing autism to focusing on making the world more welcoming to #ActuallyAutistic people.

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

Every time Russia gets desperate, articles like this magically appear.

They offer no new information or insight, just a recycled attempt to convince you that fear is your default setting.

And no, despite being a war analyst, the author doesn’t actually know where his finger is

Reasonable advice from an expert on how useful an example that shooting down of a Russian jet by Turkey is.

I guess it's worth mentioning if someone panickily believes *any* downing of a Russian jet leads to WW3, otherwise not so relevant.

Disney reverses course on Kimmel. Lessons:

-Trump's anti-Constitutional stances, anti-1A in this case, are unpopular
-Popular resistance via expression and spending choices can have an impact
-Many corporate leaders are weak, amoral people who'll bow to threats unless they face countervailing ones

I keep getting asked if I’m worried about my job because I often speak up about issues. The answer is no.

I’ve learned over the years that if employers want to hire you or if they want to fire you, they can always find a reason.

It’s not worth compromising your morals or values for anyone.

By refusing to materially respond to Russia’s repeated incursions into Allied airspace, NATO is inviting tragedy. Unless it faces meaningful consequences for these provocations, Moscow will soon (β€œaccidentally”) move on to actual strikes, perhaps even at civilian targets.

❗️Today, three Russian MiG-31 fighter aircraft entered Estonian airspace without permission and remained there for a total of 12 minutes.

MiG-31 headed toward the Estonian capital, Tallinn. The jets circled for about 12 minutes and Italian F-35s were scrambled to repel them.

Draft Bill Would Authorize Trump to Wage Drug Trafficking War

A congressional authorization for the Trump administration’s use of military force against β€œnarcoterrorists” wouldn’t solve the fundamental problems:

1) that military forces is the wrong tool

2) this isn’t a war

2) targets thus far haven’t been lawful
