Imagine if Biden begged Putin to stop. The mockery from MAGA world would be deafening.
Is there ever good timing for blowing up an apartment building? Note that Trump did not condemn the missile strike or even express condolences for the civilian victims.
This presidenting thing is haaaaaaard. Maybe he could send Elon and the DOGE Bros to Moscow to fire everybody.
The chances of this happening are right up there with the possibility that the College of Cardinals will select me as Pope Quaoar I.
Your reminder that JD Vance is a huge pile of dog shit.

Well, at least they didn’t throw rolls of paper towels to the victims.
I haven’t seen any other reports indicating that Ukraine was responsible for this big-time bavovna, but it is interesting that a trainload of North Korean missiles had just arrived.
x On April 22, Ukraine struck Russia’s massive 51st GRAU arsenal near Kirzhach with high precision. Over 100,000 tons of missiles and shells were stored there. Reports say a train with KN-23 missiles had just arrived, and bunkers were open for unloading — timing was devastating.

Greetings from Toretsk.
Since fraud is SOP in the Russian army, Popov’s real crime was making his superiors at the Defense Ministry look bad.

This has been a thorn in Ukrainian-Polish relations for a long time.
x ⚡️Exhumations of Volyn massacre Polish victims begin in western Ukraine. Polish and Ukrainian forensic experts, archeologists, and geneticists began their work on April 24 at the site of the destroyed Puzhnyky village in Ternopil Oblast.

This is the first such exhumation since 2017, when Ukraine imposed a moratorium in response to the destruction of Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) memorials in Poland. The Volyn massacres, which peaked in 1943-1944, took place in the Nazi-occupied territory of what is now western Ukraine during World War II. UPA members killed tens of thousands of Poles, while thousands of Ukrainians were killed in retaliation.
This Russian “journalist” didn’t make it.
The world’s biggest brat gets another title.
