Russian Regions Running Out of Rubles Reduce Soldiers' Signing Bonuses
At least seven of 83 Russian federal subjects have slashed military bonuses and survivor benefits because they're broke.
Resentment, racketeering, and robbery within the Russian ranks will get worse as rubles run low.

One take on the Mamdani Trump meeting.
I'm already impressed at the mayor elect's restraint in not having the Donbas become the sixth borough.

I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?
Almost a decade after the Brexit vote, GDP in the UK is around 6-8% lower relative to peer countries. (Source: www.nber.org/papers/w34459)

What I said back in March when the first shutdown was contemplated has come to pass.
Not a fan of Schumer, but are you really ready to lose this fight? The Republicans don’t negotiate and the Democrats have to cave after the government being shut for months?

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Right wing response: “I see the man who pulled the trigger has been found.
It almost doesn’t matter, because the whole of the left -Soros to every media outlet and talking heads, Hollywood, democrat politicians, school teachers and all in between -
put the gun in his hands.
They are ALL guilty.”

Found damaged in the wreckage of the World Trade Center in the wake of the attacks of September 11th, a Callery pear tree was nursed back to health by NYC Parks workers, until it was replanted at the 9/11 Memorial almost a decade later. It is now known as the Survivor Tree.

The mass astroturfing of Charlie Kirk has legitimately broken me in a new way. There are no consequences for lying anymore and we can’t expect this trajectory to bring us all nothing but suffering and destruction.
He’s not a hero. It’s very bad for all of us to treat him like a Civil Rights Leader. He was a tragic victim of his own destructive ideology.

I hate how Eli’s waiting with bated breath to see what side of the political spectrum the shooter was. As if he were on the Left everyone on the Left would be somehow complicit. This happens every time in a political shooting and I am sick of it. It was some evil manaical person, period.

What an important point by @jkbjournalist.bsky.social back in February and ever more relevant.
"Pam Bondi was Florida's attorney general 2011-2109 ... So questions should be asked about why she didn't take up the [Epstein] case -- or launch a probe -- when she was attorney general in Florida."

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
