The latter and their children are dying in their homes from Putin The Humanitarian’s barbaric attacks on civilian infrastructure, residential areas, and public transportation. Now at a greater clip because they’ve been rendered defenseless.
What’s actually going on in Ukraine is that there is a massive incentive difference between the elites and the people.
The former have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing to Ukraine, while the latter’s children are conscripted to die in trenches.

It’s not anti-Muslim sentiment. Republicans nominated a Muslim for Senate in Pennsylvania. It’s anti-Islamist sentiment. We don’t like antisemites who support the Muslim Brotherhood.
There is simply no equivalent to the right's anti-Muslim sentiment on the left. To my knowledge, there is not a single prominent leftist or member of the Democratic Party who has said anything like, "You want more Jews in positions of power?"

🇺🇦 INCREDIBLE MOMENT: Ukrainian soldier Kostiantyn Vlasenko is rescued from “kill zone" after 491 days TRAPPED.
He hid in a hole for months after losing both feet in a Russian attack.
Just when hope was nearly gone, his unit flew a drone deep into enemy territory and airlifted him to safety.
It’s a war epic even Hollywood couldn't make up.

Rebekah Jones: "Israel has different colored license plates for Israelis and Palestinians."
Arab citizens of Israel drive with the same yellow plates as Jewish Israelis.
Palestinian plates are issued by the Palestinian Authority, under the Oslo Accords Palestinian leaders signed.
Different government, different plates.
This isn't a mistake. It's a product of the lie industry about Israel.
Invent a "fact," add "apartheid," collect 8,000 likes.
By your logic, Texas and Mexico are running an apartheid.

The script for @D_Tarczynski was to hilarious. And I have no doubt Andy Burnham would ask for a thousand boats.
This is so well made. Another brilliant piece of work from @MinistryofWit.

The impressive new PM of Morocco.
Le 22 octobre au Parlement, Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri a répondu aux propos tenus par l'ancien chef du gouvernement Abdelilah Benkirane (PJD) en 2014, lorsqu’il comparait les femmes à des « lustres qui illuminent leur foyer ». « Je ne suis pas un lustre, je suis un cerveau, une ions et un combat », a lancé la cheffe du gouvernement, en défendant notamment la place des femmes dans la société.

I just had a very disturbing conversation with a young man in the sauna at my local gym.
After exchanging some basic pleasantries, the conversation quickly moved to his family roots in Qatar. He told me about his father being mistreated there, despite "building much of the e." Without prompting, he made several remarks regarding the state of the Middle East, and before I knew it, we were talking about Israel.
He explained to me that global terrorism, and especially terrorism in Israel, was natural. "It's because people are trying to break out of prisons," he said. "Gaza is a concentration camp." While I repeatedly disagreed with him in a polite and measured tone, he grew more and more excited. "The only sovereign nation in the Middle East is Iran!" he told me. "How's that working out for them?" I asked. He also explained to me that "Israel has killed more children than any other country." I asked him about the horrific deaths of children in other wars, to which he had no answer. I asked him about Hamas using the people of Gaza as human shields. He refuted that, as well, suggesting that Hamas wouldn't harm children.
He then went on to explain that eventually, the Jews will be outnumbered — and that in time — Israel will be overrun and undone. He seemed exhilarated by the thought of it. "It's getting too hot in here," he said — before abruptly leaving. I just stood there stunned. By all accounts, a normal, probably well-educated young man in Canada, defending terrorism, celebrating the strength of the Iranian regime, and openly predicting Israel's destruction.
As I got changed and headed home, I couldn't stop thinking about our talk. There was no green bandana or inverted red triangle — but it was clear how he felt about the situation. How he viewed the world. There are thousands and thousands of young people like this here in Canada, and throughout the West — and in time — we're going to pay a civilizational cost for not addressing this problem when we had the chance.

If I went to Russia, I would be jailed and held hostage as a POW for criticizing Russia.
I went to Ukraine as a critic and the President of Ukriane invited me to his palace and allowed me to interview him.
After I interviewed @ZelenskyyUa, Russian state media, which is controlled by Putin and the Kremlin, was calling for me to be assassinated and then they were retweeting IRGC propaganda videos that called for Islamic terrorists to shoot me in the head.
Ukraine and Russia aren’t the same.

It is no wonder the Houthis have been systematically targeting journalists in Taiz city. Here, @taha_saleh_taiz documents the aftermath of a reported Houthi projectile strike on an ambulance traveling from Shaghaf to Taiz city. The attack killed a wounded teenage girl who was edical treatment and the ambulance driver, while injuring the doctor who was caring for her.

Remember all the leftists who were giddy over the prospect of China, ruled by history's largest Communist Party, overtaking the U.S. as the world's largest economy.
🇺🇸🇨🇳 China is no longer expected to overtake the United States as the world's largest economy anytime soon, marking a major shift from predictions made over the past two decades.
For years, economists expected China's rapid growth to continue until its economy surpassed recasts predicting that would happen before 2020.
But those predictions have repeatedly been pushed back.
According to Oxford Economics data, China's economy reached roughly 77% of U.S. GDP in 2021 before falling back to around 67% in 2025.
The latest forecast suggests China's economy will reach only about 84% of America's by 2040.
The comparison uses nominal GDP, measured in U.S. dollars, meaning exchange rates also influence the figures.
China's economic rise has been extraordinary, but the expectation that it would inevitably overtake the United States is looking increasingly uncertain.

On Monday Lavrov called the IRGC’s cause against the U.S. “just,” comparing it to Russia’s war against Ukraine. Araghchi said Russia and Iran are “closer than ever.”
“The foreign minister of Russia, Lavrov, was in Tehran and committed to supporting the Iranians economically and politically. There’s evidence that they’ve also supported them militarily.”
@RLHeinrichs on @FoxBusiness today.
“The Russians know at this point that they cannot litary on the battlefield…. It is the Russian strategy to wear out the civilian population, and in doing so it is committing war crimes…The Russians understand that they are attacking the United States via this proxy state, the IRGC, in Iran.”

Ukrainians keep showing enormous courage in defending their country against Putin’s immoral and indeed evil efforts to conquer a neighbor. They have resisted now for four years and eight months and we should do all we can to help them.

Right. This is about the restoration of the Russian Empire.
And Putin's claim to Ukraine rests on history he distorts – most notably in his 2021 essay on the "historical unity" of Russians and Ukrainians.
More on that history here: cliffordmay.org/31577/medvedev…

I remember when Tucker interviewed him and asked him if this was about NATO and he launched into a soliloquy about the Kievian Rus in 900 AD. Nothing has changed.
