TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

The pro-EU Party of Action & Solidarity has crushed the pro-Russia Patriotic Electoral Bloc in the Moldovan election.
It won 51 seats - an outright majority.
Moldova is now on a trajectory towards EU membership.
A very bad night for Putin, who targeted Moldova with a wave of election propaganda.

The collusion seems to include providing the Russian authorities with materials (from their confidential asylum applications!) used to send forcibly repatriated dissidents to prison. The depth of betrayal here is beyond words.
BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.

Whole thread. We’re in an up-in-the-air moment now: one hand, Trump threatening civil war; other, ICE being turned back by civil disobedience. Moral: fascists don’t know yet how far they’re willing to go. My belief: more moments like this now will prevent the war that’s been threatened.
ICE is turning around now, escorted by Broadview police.
Crowd is jubilant.
Someone is shouting, "this is what it takes! They are turning around!"
