💔 A European Parliament interpreter could not hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv.
The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.

This is why getting off gas heating sooner rather than later makes sense. Those still relying on it in the 2040s will be sharing the maintenance costs among a much smaller number of bill payers.
New study estimates that German households who remain on natural gas in 2045 could be stuck paying 10x what they pay today for gas pipeline maintenance. As other households electrify, gas utilities will spread the same maintenance costs over fewer remaining customers, raising prices dramatically.
Last gas-heated homes in Germany could face extra costs of 4,000 euros per year – analysis

NVDA CEO Jensen Huang was in the White House today just prior to this foul diatribe. It’s about time to explicitly ask him and the cohort of CEO’s who are busy sucking up to Trump if they endorse these sentiments. And many others.

The UK military also recently showed us excactly how to tackle these boats without killing any one, getting the people, boats and the evidence - with just a single sniper from a helicopter!
If the UK can do that, so can the US...especially if they want to continue the intelligence sharing.

Well done to the Royal Marines!
They have successfully taken part in a dramatic counter-drugs interception of boats traveling at 40 knots across the Gult of Oman.
From helicopters a direct sniper shot was made into a boat engine,to knock it out.
They seized £35m of drugs, including heroin.

Interesting to see if Trump understands that international banks have to abide by capital adequacy requirements in other jurisdictions if they want to establish. I'm guessing not.
