The US administration seems to have a very selective memory - funny how amnesia always strikes when it feeds their narrative.
The only time Article 5 of the NATO Treaty was invoked was to defend us, not for us to defend Europe. European soldiers and civilians died fighting with us and working next to us in Afghanistan. Europe was not attacked on September 11, 2001.

Trust in Washington is in freefall: just 17% of Americans still trust the federal government to do the right thing.

Among Democrats, only 9% do. And still, yet 26% of Republicans still do - mind-boggling.

This is what a legitimacy crisis looks like

Who believes Russia’s economy can survive long enough - let alone until August 2027 - to achieve its military goals, unless the US ends up bailing Russia out?

The perhaps clearest answer to these reasonable conditions is for Putin and his aggressive hangarounds to lose the war - unconditionally.
🇺🇸🇺🇦 Rubio: Ukrainians want peace, but it’s also about ending the war in a way that leaves Ukraine sovereign, independent, and with the opportunity for true prosperity.

It’s about ending the war in a way that creates a mechanism that allows Ukraine to be independent, sovereign, without new wars…

This Russian war effort is not sustainable. Will someone please tell the US leadership…?
1/ While Russia is making incremental advances in the Zaporizhzhia region, Russian soldiers say that it's resulting in carnage among their units. Conditions at Stepnohirsk are said to be dire, with entire battalions virtually wiped out. ⬇️

So the MAGA cohort was led and inflamed by low-paid content farms in Africa, India, and Asia pushing hate for money - all while serving Russia’s agenda to divide the US and Europe.

Wonder when MAGA supporters will realise they were used by the very people and nations they love to mock.

While US leadership has given Ukraine an “offer they can’t refuse,” not even the Russian leadership buys into it.

Russian insiders say the Kremlin will reject the 28-point plan, even though it meets most of Russia’s own demands.
NEW: Russian President Vladimir Putin continues to indicate that his demands have not fundamentally changed since the August 2025 Alaska summit.

Two enemies, one battlefield. Ukraine deserves better.
Reuters reports the U.S. is pressuring Ukraine to accept a peace deal by threatening to cut off weapons and intelligence support. Sources say the pressure is heavier than ever, with Washington pushing for a signature by next Thursday.

Extortion disguised as “peace.”

And if I may add, it’s not just Russia that needs to understand this.

More than two-thirds of Republicans think the U.S. is on the right track. Nearly two-thirds of Americans think it’s not.

A nation divided by perception, and the gap is baffling, just baffling.

18 October 1937 | A French Jewish girl, Renee Stolowicz, was born in Paris.

In October 1943 she was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

There’s always a bigger fish.
Content creators disrupted traditional media, and traditional media is being reshaped. But what happens when the disruptors — the creators — are themselves disrupted by Gen AI? It’ll be fascinating to watch the next cycle of innovation and disruption unfold. 🍿🥤
MrBeast says AI could threaten creators' livelihoods, calling it 'scary times' for the industry | TechCrunch
If MrBeast is openly questioning whether AI is an existential threat to his business and others like it, then it's fair to say that smaller creators are likely even more worried.
