Poland confirms talks are underway to transfer MiG-29 jets to Ukraine in exchange for Ukrainian drone and missile tech to boost joint defense and industrial capabilities.

I rarely sound alarm - but please: do not believe what you hear or read from the legacy outlets.

For US news - these either serve the WH by definition or are intimidated to serve (always their decision though)

For global news - US media spreads pro-RU, anti-EU views under “America First” label.

If you want to feel hopeful: this is a violinist playing in Kyiv underground passageway during a blackout in Kyiv today because of Russian attacks

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.

Enough to power 23 million homes!

U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

Russia’s assets in the West are not hiding their traitorous plans

I noticed that someone had stolen the tops of the clouds when I was walking the dog the other morning.

13 years ago a March of a million went through Kyiv - proud to be part of this nation. It also shows how our fight doesn’t change: as in 2013, or now, Russia wants to erase us, and we need to fight it

Who did this!?! 🤣🤣🤣

Today we remember the thousands of Americans who died in the attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago. Nearly half of those lost were aboard the USS Arizona, and I remember what a moving experience it was when Gabby and I visited the memorial. We’ll never forget their sacrifice.

I am pleased to announce another no-talent year!

“Peace” talks latest. Zelenskyy: “Trading Ukrainian territories for security guarantees is not being considered.”

Close-up of the underside of African violet leaves, revealing velvety textures and vivid purple hues. Fine hairs shimmer across the surface, with green edges framing the richly veined purple undersides.

My purple African Violet has been hiding a beautiful secret beneath its leaves, which I would have never noticed except for moving it to a higher shelf with a plant light for the winter. Such gorgeous texture and contrasting colors!

On Dec 3, Russia has terminated key military cooperation agreements with Canada, France and Portugal, including Soviet-era and post-Cold War deals signed in 1989, 1994 and 2000. The move was approved by Prime Minister Mishustin.

Another wonderful wintery sunrise this morning. 😊

Dedicated to fighting wokeness.

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

A peace plan for Ukraine could be very short, directed at Russia: Get Out!
Two simple one syllable words that cover the whole thing.
If you like, add two more simple words between the first two, for emphasis: the fuck.

Oh what a hopeful sight: main Christmas tree set up in central Kyiv✨🎄

The House has passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

A simple illustration showing a pink lollipop next to a pink-and-yellow capsule pill. Below them, the text reads: “Antibiotics are not candies.” A small EU flag icon appears in the bottom right corner.

Antibiotic resistance is a serious and growing public health challenge in Europe.

Misuse and overuse make bacteria resistant, making infections harder to treat.

A sunrise sky with a bit of golden light, dark clouds and branches above the landscape.

Good morning ✨☕💛
