Trump on 2028: "They say I'm not allowed to run. I don't know what the hell that's all about. He said, 'Four more years.' You see the new hat? We have four more years -- 2028."

Post Elon Musk @elonmusk Subscribe The EU Commission should be disbanded in favor of an elected body and the EU President should be directly elected. The current system is rule by bureaucracy, not democracy.

Another would-be King of the World.

If you had $100,000 in your account and were fined proportionally to Musk's wealth for openly violating known EU regulations while operating a business in their market, you'd have to pay a whole $30.

For this outrage, he dedicates all his time to calling for the EU's destruction.

Sad little man.

Ukraine's Permanent Representative to the UN, Andriy Melnyk, offers moscow an alternative to Ukraine’s capitulation — in their own language, as reported by UNN.

It doesn't take a military strategist to understand why Russia really want it...

Cerbère and Bélier, two French ironclads with true ram bows (not always a safe assumption with French ships especially). It very much looks like the hull rolled inverted halfway through construction, and everybody just carried on because that wasn't their department

Once again, Moscow is drawing its tired red lines.

They can go fuck themselves.

Serious consequences haven't even been discussed yet.

2/"When defense no longer makes any sense, I give the order to withdraw units backward in order to preserve our troops. This is exactly what explains the slow advance of the Russian army. Because for us, it is better to lose 200–300 meters than the life of even one of our soldiers."
