WTF is this, super incel Bezos?
After Volodymyr Zelensky gambled on a confrontational strategy with President Donald Trump and wound up at the center of an explosive Oval Office meeting, the Ukrainian president is scrambling to restore ties with Washington as the White House ramps up pressure for an end to the war with Russia.
As Trump flip-flops on Ukraine, Zelensky rushes to fix ties
The heated White House argument and the cuts in military and intelligence aid make this one of the most perilous moments in Zelensky’s presidency.

Or we’ll continue down the road of a piecemeal strategy of banning popular foreign apps, while the US data broker industry continues to monetize the data of all Americans, mostly without our consent or notice. #AIBillofRights
