Here’s How We Pressured an Airline to End Its Contract With ICE
ICE is not invulnerable. The Avelo Airlines win proves what happens when we refuse inevitability and fight together.

It's simple, like Nancy has warned us, with Trump, all roads lead to Putin. So Trump's use of the childish excuse that b/c he didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize, he's going to conquer Greenland & alienate NATO to such an extent that they kick America out of it, has been Putin's lifelong dream.

However, he pointed out "the nuance that the invitation was also received by Russia and Belarus, our enemy and the enemy's ally, respectively. It is difficult to imagine how it is possible to cooperate with them in one Council"

They are not preparing to “go to” war with Russia, they are preparing for the day that Russia goes to war with them
Lavrov:
If you read up on the statements by European politicians and leaders, such as Kaja Kallas, Ursula von der Leyen, Merz, Starmer, Macron, and Rutte, they are seriously preparing for a war with Russia. They are not hiding that fact.
