It would be interesting to know what the complaint includes, given that Tulsi is known to work for Russia

Here she goes, leaving Baltic Sea.

There is frantic activity. German clerks has had the main responsibility for looking away and the staff is exhausted. Denmark took over for now but the Germans are on again tomorrow.

The clerks in UK shiver. They have 11 vessels to ignore. Just the coming hours.

I really can’t keep up with this. It’s like every vague suspicion of oligarch, finance and tech power come together - with Russian influence.

Yes, you’re not imagining. Only Mandelson, Lebedev, Milner and Epstein and L’Affaire Russe

People underestimate the scale of the war in Ukraine and often don’t realize that Russia is committing genocide.

In Mariupol alone, the death toll in three months may have exceeded the total deaths in Gaza over the entire war, despite a much smaller population. Think about that!

OTD in 1920 Soviet Russia signed the Treaty of Tartu with Estonia. We promised that Russia “unreservedly recognizes the independence and sovereignty of the State of Estonia forever”.

Further proof you can trust a treaty we would sign with Ukraine…

Last week, I told Secretary Rubio that he was part of the most corrupt Admin in American history.

They are selling American security, prosperity, & innovation to enrich the Trump family & his billionaire buddies.

They must be held accountable for this blatant grift.

🇬🇪Georgia is sliding into a legal dictatorship. Not overnight. Step by step. Each protest is met with a new tailored law.
Each law designed to exhaust, criminalize, and isolate society until resistance itself becomes illegal.
Here is how the latest law changes everything.
