Ukraine still in Kursk & Belgorod Oblasts

These incursions rely on secure supply lines from Ukraine proper

These incursions are an outsized embarrassment to Putin & force his fascist invaders to destroy Russian lands while also demonstrating how inefficient the Russian military is

Russia was supposed to have taken Pokrovsk months ago...

Yet, Ukraine not only stopped that advance, but has been regaining land recently (blue areas)...

Slava Ukraini & down with the fascist invaders

500x loss from his peak, which came after T's election...

The stock is still up 25% over the past year. Note the upward trend in November 2024.

There is.

Many stocks have premarket and after-market hours.

As seen here (in green for now) from using Google to get quotes

Well, in fairness to T, their international trade position is quite weak

Large-scale issue vs small-scale issue

I know which one I, & most Americans, think pertains on more people

I hope Democrats favor of populist economics, unless we want MAGA to win by favoring small

P.S. I'm not saying abandon any minority group, but explore refocusing political PRIORITIES

@aoc.bsky.social you may want to consider unfollowing accounts that use such language if you have aspirations for a large role in national politics.

This guy's bio is expressing the same thing I expressed but then he attacks me because he thinks he knows how I voted

Dumb as shit

Keep voting for whoever the DNC shoved down your throat like the good little bitch that you are

When MAGA cries about "injunctions" by "unelected" judges (no federal judges are elected), show them this video, which explains that the high number of injunctions against Trump executive orders (EOs) is due to the EOs being unconstitutional

DOGE "efficiency"

They haven't even cut 2% of the budget, based off 2024 spending.

Cut = $130B
Spent 2024 = $6.75T

Obama was forced to cut 10% & did so SEAMLESSLY.

None of this Musk drama & tragedy has been necessary or even very helpful.
