Today, St. Petersburg was hit by the largest air raid since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Which means it was probably also the largest since 1943, during World War II.
The largest so far.

Ukraine has just struck fifth major Russian data center, hitting VKontakte’s data center in St. Petersburg overnight. Ukrainian Armed Forces are systematically dismantling Russia’s physical tech infrastructure and planning to destroy every single data center in Russia.

"I've never seen anything like this in my life"
Amid Ukraine's massive drone barrage on St. Petersburg, locals complain that war was something that was supposed to happen in Ukraine, not back home.

I am asking again:
What has the republican party done for the Black community?
How have they improved our lives?

I am a Black woman in Ohio and I will never sit out an election.
I will vote blue every time and do not need to be coddled to do so.
96% of Black women vote in every single election without being coddled or courted.
Hundreds of thousands of Black men are sitting out elections in Ohio. Almost no one is asking them why. ms.now/news/ohio-black-men-v…

Daily Report - Monday 🐾
Good morning!
Well, most of the barley has finally been cut.
Fergus Pheasant has been shouting.
The crows have been shouting too.
I don’t know what all the fuss is about.
Perhaps nobody told them the harvest was happening.
Blair Blackbird made an appearance as well.
Very busy morning in the wildlife department.
It’s a lovely morning
The Paps of Jura look splendid.
I've been admiring them. From my bed, obviously.
As you can see, I’m wide awake.
One ear on full alert.
I’ve also had my cheese. 🧀
So I’m not complaining.
For once.
Anyway, I hope you all have a lovely Monday!
Cheerio!

457 UK armed forces personnel died during the war in Afghanistan. Beyond those and US fatalities, a further 703 individuals from 30 nations were killed. Hegseth owes each of their families an apology.
Hegseth on Afghanistan:
I was a captain in Afghanistan, and we would go to the headquarters in Kabul, and there would be 50 flags at the headquarters.
It was a beautiful thing to see 50 different countries contributing to the NATO alliance and the ISAF mission there.
Except there were like maybe five that contributed. It was actually closer to one or two that, by the end, were actually involved in kinetic operations.
In fact, the ISAF patch, we would joke that it meant "I Saw Americans Fighting."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Over 1100 non-American soldiers from 31 US-allied countries were killed fighting in Afghanistan, approximately 1/3 of the total combat deaths.

🔥 “Answer the question, Tommy — I think you’re the one who needs to read the constitution, not me.”
@AbdulElSayed skillfully handles a bigoted Islamophobic heckler and exposes him as the true religious zealot in the room.

Because Trump is Putin's useful idiot. 🤨
🇺🇦 Zelenskyy delivers a blunt message to the United States:
“Just give us Starlink back. If you refuse, Ukraine will survive. We will continue defending ourselves with or without it.
But why would you restrict a country fighting for its survival? Why make it harder for us to defend our people?
I simply cannot understand the reasoning behind this decision. It is a mistake.”
Ukraine isn’t asking America to fight its war. It’s asking America not to stand in the way of its defense.

We can’t even afford to hire school librarians and MAGA thinks we have doctors on staff performing sex changes during recess. Walnuts.

This is a truly horrific response to a grieving widower, wow. May it haunt Vance for his career.
Vance is confronted by the emotional husband of a soldier killed in Iran War and acts like he had no idea anyone ever died:
Q: It's a hard price to pay. There's a failure in the leadership. How will the leadership be held accountable?
Vance: If there were failures... This is the first time I've heard of this.

Tommy was a plant from the Josh Hawley camp. thehandbasket.co/p/tommy-tee…

Did I understand this correctly – Russia and the US, the world’s two largest nuclear powers, are doing everything they can to force Ukraine into capitulation, and somehow this damn country STILL refuses to surrender?

"My great grandmother lived to 98 without vaccines."
Lovely.
Her six siblings who died before the age of five were unavailable for comment.

Three Facts:
•Tommy wasn't a voter. He was a Christian Nationalist plant by Josh Hawley.
•Tommy isn't worried religious law superseding our Constitution. He admitted he's trying to enact Christian Shariah above the Constitution.
•Zero corporate media outlets will report on how the Muslim Senate Candidate is running to uphold the Constitution, and the Christian sitting Senator is governing to enforce Christian Shariah.
They're not afraid of losing our Constitution. They're afraid of competition.
