And Russian drone destroyed it, the fire truck. The fire truck that was of no danger to Russia or Russia people.

Its only crime was that it was trying to save the lives of people that Russia bombs.

You are looking at a scene of famous ‘double tap’ Russian drone hit firefighters in Sumy, Ukraine, when they were helping people after the attack - it was then that Russian drone attacked them, deliberately, for the 2nd time .

Really really smart move, for so many reasons

If my math is right for the same price as the originally spec'd F-35s, we can get four times more arctic-ready aircraft made and maintained in 🇨🇦 AND an army of drones

Wake up America! We have a problem in US with religious extremists imposing their religious beliefs as law. Currently 12 states imposed a total abortion ban based on religious beliefs. That is what "sharia law" looks like--it must be stopped! #ChristianShariaLaw #ShariaLaw

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

He was arrested for failure to comply.

They were concerned about the charge and potential penalties.

He clearly was not across that line when he was apprehended.

He clearly had not been given a warning before he was arrested.

He clearly was not blocking vehicles.
