"If there is to be any hope that the democracies, and especially what was once the greatest of them all, will retain or regain their moral compass, we must all keep shouting from the rooftops: “This is a lie!”; “That is a lie!”; “The leader of the United States is lying!”

Complicity in Slaughter: Outrage Explodes as Reports Link Musk and Trump to Ukraine Drone Shield Crippling
Demands are rapidly intensifying for Donald Trump and far-right disinformation propagandist Elon Musk to face international war crimes charges following a catastrophic disruption to Ukraine's frontline defenses.
A devastating exposé by The Telegraph, citing four anonymous sources, reveals a shocking level of complicity: it was Elon Musk who personally approached Donald Trump with the proposal to throttle Starshield — the military-grade version of his Starlink satellite network. Trump reportedly agreed to the scheme.
By deliberately crippling Ukraine's drone defense systems, this calculated move effectively disabled the country's shield against Russian aggression. The sabotage directly allowed Vladimir Putin's forces to rain lethal drone strikes down upon undefended cities, resulting in the brutal slaughter of innocent Ukrainian men, women, and children.
Critics and legal experts argue that by actively interfering with military infrastructure to benefit an invading, authoritarian Apparatchik force, both figures have crossed the line from political interference into direct complicity in war crimes.

A gang of settler terrorists violently attacked "Washington Post" journalist Heidi Levine, 64, this morning, and also robbed her belongings. It is important to clarify right now: the problem is neither Israeli "hasbara" (public diplomacy) nor global antisemitism.

Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine was hospitalized after settlers brutally beat and robbed her while she covered the West Bank olive harvest. The attack drew condemnation from the U.S. Embassy, press freedom groups and Israel's journalists' union. Levine described a growing climate of fear among Palestinian harvesters, while rights groups warned that repeated attacks on journalists continue amid a lack of accountability. | Liza Rozovsky, Matan Golan, and Etan Nechin

Texas man shoots Hispanic driver for Amazon—in her back as she walks away.
"He told me to speak English," she said.
"Then he started shooting—I was already in reverse."
She was shot twice—in lower back & top of head.
Husband was on video call crying:
"Drive away! Drive away!"
She drove on adrenaline making it to the next stoplight.
Before she could faint a man riding a motorcycle pulled up next to her and called 911.
Yirmar Martínez has been driving for Amazon Flex for the past 6 months without a problem.
She is a 23 year old mother with an ongoing asylum case pending in the courts.
The suspected shooter has not been publicly identified—and no charges have been announced.
Incident occurred on the 1200 block of North Cedar Hill Road in Cedar Hill, Texas.

EXCLUSIVE: Elon Musk approached Donald Trump with the idea of slowing down Starlink in Ukraine, The Telegraph can reveal.
The billionaire tech entrepreneur approached the US president with the proposal to introduce speed limits on the system, which hampered Ukraine’s drone defences, according to four sources familiar with the discussions.

The IDF is not allowing water in to Ras al-Ahmar for a month now. The area is the hottest in the entire West Bank, sitting in the Jordan Valley, with temperatures reaching 113 (45 Celsius) this time of year. They hope to see the residents either die of dehydration or leave. There are around 300 residents, including many children and babies.

As an American, I am having a visceral reaction to this. I feel so fucking small, so weak, so insignificant in the fight for freedom and justice for all around the world.
Trump has abandoned our Allies and relinquished the U.S.’s leadership status. We are another Trump casino.

Donors of $330 million to the ballroom include "contributors who have benefited from regulatory decisions, government contracts and, in one case, a pardon for a family member."

The BMJ compiles still more data on the pattern of sexual assaults against Palestinian men and women by Israeli prison guards, settlers and soldiers. Sexual violence, whether against Israelis or Palestinians, is a way of breaking the spirit, and it flourishes in shame and silence. Good to see the taboo breaking.
Sexual violence against Palestinians has been documented for decades. This BMJ piece by @nevegordon, @maynard_nick, @RubinMinhas and colleagues compiles the evidence and shows why accountability cannot be optional. bmj.com/content/395/bmj-2026…

No amount of support for Russia can end the war, because Russia is the criminal aggressor. A modicum of support for Ukraine could, however, end the war, by making it impossible for Russia to continue. This should not be a hard choice.

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

VIDEO | Israeli war minister Israel Katz allegedly speaking from south Lebanon:
◾️ “As Prime Minister Netanyahu and I have made clear, we will not withdraw from the security zones in Lebanon and Syria.”
◾️ “If Hezbollah joins Iran in an attack against Israel, it will suffer a heavy blow and lose additional territory in southern Lebanon, in the Nabatieh and Litani River areas, which will become part of Israel’s permanent security zone. The Israeli army is prepared to carry out this operation.”
◾️ “The entire Shia population in the area extending to the Awali and Zahrani rivers will be evacuated northward to enable a powerful blow against terrorist infrastructure in the area and remove the UAV threat from northern Israeli settlements.”
◾️ “Beirut’s Dahiye district will also be evacuated, and the terrorist infrastructure there will be struck. More than one million Shia Muslims will be displaced in Lebanon.”
◾️ “Hassan Nasrallah devastated Lebanon’s Shia community before he was eliminated, and Naim Qassem could completely destroy this community before he is eliminated and sent to meet Nasrallah and his predecessor in the depths of hell.”

The calf was born last night. The bear showed up this morning... Our donkey went at it before the cow even knew it was there. Braying, rearing, kicking. The bear went back into the woods and the calf stood up for the first time right after.

Meloni: I do not miss the Russian tanks in Prague and Budapest. I do not miss the Berlin Wall.
If Ukraine stopped defending itself tomorrow, Russia would occupy a European nation and Soviet-style imperialism would return.

U.S. WARSHIPS IN WATERS around Iran could not dock anywhere because “all our bases were destroyed”, a Navy chief revealed yesterday.
The USS Abraham Lincoln actually ran out of food in just four months—and sailors had to rely on special rations for the next six, he added.
Shocking details of the US's tortuous war on Iran were revealed by an unnamed Navy chief from the USS Abraham Lincoln, interviewed by California mortgage broker Jason Hall, a personal friend.
Hall’s write-up quickly got more than a million views on X, the social media platform.
SAILORS BOO HEGSETH
Secretary for War Pete Hegseth was greeted with boos by sailors when he boarded the USS Abraham Lincoln, the senior sailor revealed.
“Hegseth went on the ship the day before they got back & was soundly booed. Said he’s never seen that.”
As for the news reports about how bad conditions were in terms of food and other supplies, “it was worse”, the Navy chief told him.
“Said he & other officers met with the Admiral of the Navy. They asked what was going on & he said he had no idea. Zero clear direction of from DoD, terrible organization, no idea of objective, no plan at all & no support. Just a total cluster & Mickey Mouse operation,” said Hall, who uses the online name Jhallito.

A searing account in @972mag of torture of Palestinian children in Israeli custody.
“Children [in administrative detention] often don’t even know why they’re being held, and their parents don’t know either.”
