While Trump sits at his "Peace Council" claiming he believes Putin wants to end the war, Russia hit Kryvyi Rih with ballistics. Ukrainian channels report a woman and a child have been hospitalized.
Another reminder that Russia and its people are absolute filth.

Die Zahl der Toten im Iran ist unfassbar. Sogar das Regine selbst spricht von über 5.000. Ärzte von mindestens 16.500 und 330.000 Verletzten. Was für ein schreckliches Massaker, es übersteigt die Vorstellungskraft www.thetimes.com/world/middle...

Das autoritäre System der islamischen Republik in Iran ist aufgrund des inneren Machtgeflechts, seiner ideologischen Verhärtung und seines Selbstbetrugs weitgehend unfähig zu Reformen. Das erinnert an das Schicksal der späten UdSSR, die sogar ohne Protestbewegung zerbrach.👇🏽

This is an excellent, depressing, analysis. Trump accuses Democrats of treason, yet he is the one colluding with Russia, selling out allies, betraying NATO, and surrendering US interests to the diktats of a foreign nation. Trump is a deeply corrupt, compromised, craven Quisling.
