We cannot determine their success without knowing their objectives. If their goal was to save Russia's economy, distract America & Europe from Russia’s war on Ukraine, expend military resources elsewhere, and make profitable deals for themselves, that’s mission accomplished.

Puerto Rico is a perfect example of why any country should resist becoming a US territory. No viable path to statehood, always starved of resources and treated like an inconvenient charity case, and a complete lack of awareness and respect. Greenland’s fate would be much worse.

Have been too shattered to write this but for the sake of clarity — I have also been laid off by the Post. I was one of the few journalists still working inside Russia. My last story went on the front page and featured rare testimonies from wounded soldiers criticizing the war.

When are they going to release the footage that Alex Pretti recorded with his own phone? Do they think we’re just going to forget about that? Because we’re not.

Alex Pretti’s last words: “Don’t touch her!” “Are you okay?” Renee Good’s last words: “I’m really not mad at you dude…” And this administration wants you to believe these fellow Americans were “domestic terrorists.” This must end. Abolish ICE.

Not good enough, Senator @LindseyGrahamSC. He insulted the honour of “NATO allies,” not just the UK. Canadians didn’t “hang a little back from the front lines.” They took one of the toughest missions: in Kandahar. Virtually every NATO country suffered combat deaths, and many
Well said, Mr. President. Your statement about our British allies speaks for itself. I have had more interaction with President Trump on national security matters than any president since I’ve been in Congress. I can assure our allies and the American people that President

CAF Cpl Karine Blais was blown to pieces when the vehicle she was in struck a hidden IED on the front line north of Kandahar City, Afghanistan on Apr-13-2009, while apparently doing sweet fuck all for the United States of America. She was just 21 years old. 🙏 #CanadaStrong 🇨🇦
