When you hear Putin say Russia "strives for friendship and co-operation with all peoples on Earth", remember what that looks like in reality.

Ukraine will always stand against Russian "friendship and co-operation", so that no more European cities look like this.🇺🇦🛡️

Appalti truccati, chiesto l'arresto per Totò Cuffaro. Tra gli indagati anche Saverio Romano TUTTI I NOMI La Procura di Palermo ha chiesto gli arresti domiciliari per 18 persone accusate a vario titolo di associazione a delinquere, turbativa d’asta e corruzione

Judges request house arrest for former Governor of Sicily Totò Cuffaro & 17 others on suspicion of conspiracy to commit procurement fraud & corruption. After serving 7 years for aiding & abetting mafiosi, Cuffaro relaunched his political career & recently formed an alliance with Salvini's Lega.

Meanwhile our generation in the west will be remembered as the most inept defenders of freedom in history.

All we’re asked is to cough up some pocket change to Ukraine.

But instead we wait until the price gets way higher when WE will be under attack.

An atrocity foretold: How the RSF siege of El Fasher turned into genocidal slaughter Communication networks are down but a deluge of shocking videos point to mass killings on a devastating scale.

The russian occupiers announced the completion of the "reconstruction" of the Mariupol Drama Theater — the very one they bombed in Mar 2022, when hundreds of people w/ kids were sheltering inside.

In Dec, they plan to reopen it and stage russian plays literally on the blood and bones of Ukrainians.

When we look at this massacre and many more perpetrated by the RSF, let's be clear who funds, equips & sustains them. It's the UAE. Yes, the same UAE that might own your football club, fly you on your holidays, invests in our national infrastructure. If boycotts work, we should be boycotting now.

I've had a fun few minutes just imagining how my evening at home would go if I had publicly opined I wished my wife believed in a different god.

The ways of the Lord are mysterious.

NEW | The RSF captured el Fasher after an 18-month siege, solidifying a de facto partition in Sudan.

The Emirati-backed RSF is committing war crimes that are likely crimes against humanity & possibly acts of ethnic cleansing.

Kremlin disinfo network praises Putin’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev on social media A network of Kremlin “trolls” — paid operators behind pseudonymous accounts on X (formerly Twitter) — has been spotted praising Kirill Dmitriev, CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund and a special...

Kremlin disinfo network praises Putin’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev on social media

Seven of its accounts secured blue verified status, the first known case for Kremlin-aligned human "trolls" for hire, according to @antibot4navalny.bsky.social.

But the doctor never spoke about rebel chlorine stocks at Russia's cynically choreographed "press conference." Why? Because Moscow decided to run with a different disinformation narrative, namely that no attack ever occurred in Douma, and the whole thing was "staged" by rebels and the White Helmets.

This is the first time, so far as I'm aware, a senior Russian official has copped to planting information alibis to cover for Russian war crimes. Whoops!

Grave fears for civilians after Sudanese paramilitary claims capture of El Fasher RSF says it has seized control of army’s main base in Darfur, home to famine-stricken displacement camp

I am old enough to remember people in the West and especially college students, actually giving a damn about Darfur. Now, nobody gives a shit. I have no idea why, it's not like there is a legal limit on the number of conflicts and massacres one can care about, Gaza or Ukraine are not an excuse.

Chatbots Are Pushing Sanctioned Russian Propaganda ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, and Grok are serving users propaganda from Russian-backed media when asked about the invasion of Ukraine, new research finds.

When asked about Russia’s war in Ukraine, ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, DeepSeek, and xAI’s Grok all regularly cite Russian propaganda

Jeffrey Sachs claimed he was at Euromaidan, shown around by the people who "paid" and that they said, “We gave 15,000 to this one, 20,000 to that one.”

As someone who was at Euromaidan myself in Kyiv, I want to make it clear: I neither received any money nor gave anyone any😅

The longer this war goes on, the more we look like ISIS.

Today, an estimated 1.6 million Ukrainian children remain in territories occupied by Russia. Cut off from Ukraine's education system, they are exposed daily to Russian propaganda, militarization, and pressure to abandon their national identity.

‼️"The peoples of Central Europe have a duty to speak out when an independent country is under military aggression." Orbán said this in 2008 after Russia attacked Georgia, adding it’s especially Hungarians’ duty after 1956. Now he’s doing the opposite by undermining Ukraine in the EU and the US. Why?

Some are trying to defend Sachs by appealing to democratic debate. But that's a red herring. The debate shouldn't include unadulterated lies such as "the CIA paid to overthrow Yanukovych". Historical debate on WWII does not include Holocaust denial for a good reason.

Worth noting that blaming the US/NATO for Maidan is hardly limited to Sachs. One of the loudest proponents of this view is Donald Trump who in 2023 blamed Maidan on the Obama Administration

The biggest cuts in the Italian government's new budget? Salvini's Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure. Cuts to funding for new Metro lines in Rome and Milan and new Metro trains in Naples. Does Salvini care? Not really, as long as he gets his pet project: the Messina Strait bridge.

Russia’s push into Ukraine exposed its expansionist desires — and obsession for conquest Russia may look like a country, but it was born an aggressive empire and never built a true civic nation. It cannot help but invade.

As Ukrainian philosopher Volodymyr Yermolenko explains, russian imperialism is built on forced sameness:
others — including russians themselves — must exist only as extensions of moscow.

Russia shelled residential areas of Kherson with MLRS killing three and injuring 14, and launched four consecutive guided bomb strikes on one district in Kharkiv.
