So many MAGA bots died right around the time of Blue Tsunami. Weird.
Ukrainian attack drones hit another Russian Ozon e-commerce logistics center in the city of Adygeysk overnight, causing a partial building collapse and major fire.

What Trump Blood Diesel doing?
President Trump's diesel fuel deal with Russia has faltered as multiple tankers have turned away from the US - FT One loaded tanker sailing from St. Petersburg changed its destination to Brazil, while two others are indicating they are open for orders.

I still can't believe it, so goddamn happy. All I can think about though is Ukraine. We can erase Putin's puppet now, and get back to being a serious country. We can try to fix our betrayal to a loyal friend. Slava Ukraini!!

Went to bed thinking it would be a squeaker, this is unreal! All the doubters calling us lazy, needed to be fighting in the streets like some failed Soviet satellite state etc. Posting we were sitting at home and deserved what we got - what say you now? Still, a lot to do.

Again: "What I find repulsive is the contempt for innocent human life shown by reality-denying losers who turn this tragedy into conspiracy entertainment." Perfect encapsulation of the mindset of grifting conspiracy scum.
If youโ€™re still claiming the Learjet that crashed in Palm Beach County, killing all nine people aboard, was a fcking missile, neuroscientists should examine your empty skull to learn how a human can operate a smartphone without a single functional brain cell. We know the aircraft: Learjet 60, N722BD. We know it departed Austin-Bergstrom for the Bahamas. We know who was aboard: Adam Robinson, 45 - father. Helen Sharp, 40 - mother. Emma Robinson, 4 - their daughter. Charlie Robinson, 2 - their son. Anita Maria Cetina - their nanny. Rachael Reed - family friend. Charmi Fehr - family friend. Captain Jeffrey โ€œJeffโ€ Gregory, 55 - pilot. Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras, 20 - first officer. SAY THEIR NAMES, YOU GHOULISH DEMON. We have radar and detailed flight-tracking data, ATC recordings, multiple videos, identifiable aircraft wreckage, and the flight history from takeoff to the final descent. We heard the crew report icing, turbulence, overspeed, and an uncontrollable descent. We heard their mayday, their warning that they would crash, and finally: โ€œWeโ€™re out of time.โ€ Nine people were about to die. And a terrified your co-pilot screamed in fear; they could see it coming! And your response is to squint at a few pixels in a low-resolution dashcam video and scream โ€œMISSILE!โ€ ๐Ÿ–•๐Ÿผ The aircraft was descending at extraordinary speed, steeply banked, with its wings at different heights. The wires visible beside the road and the lines farther behind the plane appear in different positions because of perspective. A two-dimensional video doesnโ€™t establish that a wing struck a wire. But apparently basic geometry is beyond people who have already abandoned rational thought. An indistinct wire in a blurry frame somehow outweighs every verifiable record and every other piece of evidence. That is the pathetic standard of proof you have chosen. The stupidity might be hilarious if the circumstances werenโ€™t so fcking tragic. What I find repulsive is the contempt for innocent human life shown by reality-denying losers who turn this tragedy into conspiracy entertainment. A husband. A wife. Two young children. Their nanny. Two friends. Two pilots doing everything they could to save the aircraft. Real people. Real families. Real grief. Their loved ones are mourning while strangers on the internet congratulate one another for turning nine deaths into a fcking missile fantasy. And you have the fucking audacity to exploit their deaths to feed your intellectually bankrupt conspiracy community. Your fantasy requires ignoring the aircraftโ€™s identity, its flight history, tracking data, radio calls, physical wreckage, eyewitness accounts, and video evidence - while obsessively cherry-picking one blurry visual anomaly. And if you invoke the Pentagon on 9/11 to claim that was a missile too, your conspiracy addiction has completely consumed whatever questionable intellect you had left. ๐Ÿ–•๐Ÿผ This is confirmation bias, motivated reasoning, and the abandonment of critical thinking. Those of us who study conspiracy thinking have watched this pattern for years: every new tragedy becomes another chance to manufacture a mystery and pretend youโ€™re among the enlightened few who know the โ€œtruth.โ€ And the most disgusting part? You seem to enjoy it. You eagerly seize on the next catastrophe, manufacture a mystery, and mistake the resulting attention for intelligence. You donโ€™t care about the victims, the evidence, or getting anything right. You care about the thrill of believing youโ€™ve uncovered something the rest of the world is too blind to see. Fortunately, most people havenโ€™t surrendered their capacity for rational thought. You deserve to be mocked and publicly ridiculed for exploiting the deaths of innocent people to feed your fantasies. Your ignorance is appalling. Your arrogance is astonishing. Your willingness to use nine dead human beings as props is fcking despicable.

Russia, uses ceasefires to reinforce and dig in.
BREAKING: NEW FOOTAGE obtained by Sky News exposes how russia exploited a humanitarian pause in Oleshky to strengthen its military positions. Ukraineโ€™s General Staff has confirmed it. During the evacuation, russian troops brought in heavy equipment, reinforced positions and used humanitarian routes to supply their forces. Even worse: around 30 bodies were removed from the local hospital. Residents fear some may have died violently. Their removal risks making an independent investigation impossible. russia turned a humanitarian pause into a military operation. This shows that russia wants no peace. It only uses ceasefires to advance its war.

"This is the fifth major Russian oil installation hit in as many days, as Ukraine resumes its strike campaign."
Ukrainian attack drones struck Russia's Yaroslavl oil refinery tonight, one of the country's largest, setting multiple parts of the facility on fire. This is the fifth major Russian oil installation hit in as many days, as Ukraine resumes its strike campaign.

Witkoff enabled this, Kushner pursued this. Trump endorses it.
Don't stop shouting about Ukraine. Dnipro. Rescuers are digging people out of the rubble. Every second counts. Every life matters. Keep talking about Ukraine. Keep showing the world what russia is doing. Don't let it become background noise.

Yes. This.
If your VERY FIRST reaction to watching a horrific Learjet crash is โ€œThat looks fake,โ€ โ€œIt was a missile,โ€ or โ€œWhereโ€™s the debris?โ€ then congratulations. Youโ€™ve just identified yourself as the perfect mark for every conspiracy grifter on the internet. Itโ€™s the same breathtaking stupidity that gave us the 9/11 Pentagon โ€œmissileโ€ and โ€œmissing debrisโ€ conspiracy theories. A horrific tragedy unfolds before your eyes, and before you know a single fact, your first instinct is to invent a conspiracy. STFU & GTFO! Youโ€™re not โ€œjust asking questions.โ€ Youโ€™re broadcasting your ignorance, your gullibility, and your complete inability to distinguish evidence from bullshit. And the people exploiting these tragedies know EXACTLY who you are. They know how to manipulate you, outrage you, and keep you coming back for another helping of manufactured mystery. They turn human suffering into conspiracy content, and you eagerly spread it for them. You think youโ€™re exposing a cover-up. Youโ€™re actually exposing how easily you can be played. The grifters have a product. Youโ€™re the customer.

Savage Russian's targeted a bomb shelter with multiple munitions to kill innocents. This is who Kushner/Elon/Witkoff and Trump are beholden to. Vote accordingly.
Komyshuvakha, Ukraine. Russia simply dropped an aerial bomb on a local school where people had gathered to receive humanitarian aid. And when they went to a shelter, Russia dropped another NINE (!!!) glide bombs on it. The result: at least 24 people killed, including at least two rescue workers who had arrived to help the victims. Someone please explain to me how this is anything other than yet another blatant act of genocide committed by Russia against Ukrainians.

Russiaโ€™s sprawling Samara crude oil pumping station is on fire this morning after a successful overnight Ukrainian drone raid. The facility is a key hub for Russian and Kazakh crude moving westward to refineries and export facilities.

Last few days, Ukraine is holding 2K plus Russian casualties. IIRC correctly Russia can only sustain a burn rate of 1500 to 1600/day. I guess Trump will work another deal with Putin now.
