The Bundy occupation at Malheur in early 2016 (and the lack of consequences they faced for it) was a sign of what was to come. Right wing white anti-government vigilantes cast as “patriots.”
NEW: Tina Peters is rejecting a J6er's call to storm a Colorado prison and free her.
Peters is distancing herself from the jailbreak scheme and violent actions after allies and her attorney talked about using force or violence to free her and punish those keeping her in prison.

It's all chest-thumping and zero answers.
If Trump believes these strikes are somehow justifiable, he needs to make his case to Congress and ask for authorization. That's not what's happening.

⚡️For the first time in history, Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) struck a Russian submarine with “Sub Sea Baby” drones in Novorossiysk⚡️
The target was a Varshavyanka‑class (Kilo) submarine. The drones inflicted critical damage, effectively disabling the vessel.

The Russian position is that the Ukrainians should have no input to a peace plan cooked up between the US and Russia.
I am disgusted professionally and personally to be part of this reorientation of the role of the US in international relations.

Putin's aide Ushakov:
I think that the input of both Ukrainians&Europeans into these papers [the peace plan] will hardly be constructive.That's the problem.
We haven't seen these documents yet, but if there are corresponding corrections, we're going to have very strong objections,

The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.
