Once again, Russia's strategy is to assume #Ukraine will run out of bullets before Russia runs out of soldiers.
And thanks to Russian assets Donald Trump and Speaker Johnson, it may work.
Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to world security, and should be treated as such.

Republicans in swing state Wisconsin unenthused by Trump: ‘A bad candidate’ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/13/election-trump-wisconsin-republicans

When she wasn't, she went back to the taco joint and demanded her money back accusing the servers of stealing it somehow.
And I'm really hard-pressed to think of a better analogy for the state of American #Christianity."
Fuck the Confederacy.
“To defend their system, elite southern enslavers rewrote American democracy. They insisted that the government of the United States of America envisioned by the Founders who wrote the Declaration of Independence had a fatal flaw: it declared that all men were created equal. In contrast, the southern enslavers were openly embracing the reality that some people were better than others and had the right to rule.” - Heather Cox Richardson
April 13, 2020 – Trump held a 2½-hour news conference in which he attacked the press. “You know you’re a fake,” he told one reporter. “Everything we did was right,” he said. He also incorrectly said that the power to reopen the country rested solely with him, not governors. “When somebody is the president of the United States,” he said, “the authority is total, and that’s the way it’s got to be.”

Feel like the wheels of justice are just grinding away slowly. Nothing with government ever happens at the pace we might like to see it happen, but that doesn't necessarily imply a conspiracy, just business as usual. Trump is doing everything he can to gum up the works, and is succeeding to a degree, but he is losing, and his day of reckoning is coming.

Outrageous. “Duke University announced it is ending a full-ride scholarship program for Black students”
Duke admits 11% of the general applicants but 23% of legacy applicants—whose parents and grandparents parents were accepted during Jim Crow.
Duke didn’t even accept Black students until 1963. Now Black scholarships are banned but racist Jim Crow Legacy thrives.

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
