On this day, 500 years ago, the rebel leader of the German peasant army Thomas Müntzer was murdered by the German Lords after being captured at the battle of Frankenhausen. When under torture, asked to surrender the names of his friends, he simply replied:

I have friends everywhere.

Trump is demanding that Ukraine give up and accept that Russia won the war. Territory lost is now actual (Crimea) or de facto (the other occupied regions) parts of Russia. And for the privilege of signing the deal, Ukraine then hands over its natural resources to the US.
Trump's "final offer" for peace requires Ukraine to accept Russian occupation
The U.S. proposal is expected to be discussed tomorrow in London. Ukrainian officials aren't thrilled.

“You're not only defending your country — you're truly defending the world.”

Sean Penn visited Ukraine for the 4th time since 2022.

He met with defenders from the 3rd Separate Special Purpose Regiment and recorded a message of support.

Thank you, Sean💙💛

Why is Russia murdering children?
Trump: Biden

Why won’t you deliver Patriot systems?

Why won’t Russia agree to a ceasefire?

Why can’t you easily broker a peace deal like you promised?

Congratulations to @nycalamounited.bsky.social!

Workers stood strong for 58 days and won:

💪Every single laid off workers’ job back, guaranteed.

💪All previously earned (and stolen) PTO and sick time reinstated.

💪Their original seniority and hire date as if nothing has changed.

French activists successfully prevented former RT France director Xenia Fedorova from presenting her book cynically titled "Bannie" (banned) at a book show today in Paris

Well done! Russian propaganda poison must be eradicated.

On this date in 1865, in a meeting marked by quiet dignity and mutual respect, Ulysses S. Grant received the surrender of Robert E. Lee at Appomattox, ending the Civil War.
"Couldn't even clean your fucking boots, huh?" Lee asked.
"The better to kick an old slaver's ass," came Grant's warm reply.

First as a tragedy, then as a farce.

Trump caves again. Spine he has not.
BREAKING: In the most predictable of predictable news, trump has just ordered a 90-day pause on some tariffs.

HE CAVED AGAIN.
What a fucking clown.

Rumours spread by Twitter account with fake verification tag caused yesterday's stock market pump and dump.
I’m old enough to remember when I got banned from Twitter for impersonating Elon Musk because I said “selling verification was the stupidest idea ever, let me show you why”
Meanwhile, Reuters is blaming “a CNBC report” in its official copy. I can tell you that’s false. CNBC on air didn’t say one word about this until markets had rallied into positive territory and they were initially baffled about it.

Flippin chaos out there. www.reuters.com/markets/us/f...
