A drone barrage on Moscow escalates Ukraine’s push to take the war into Russia. It shut down Moscow’s airports for hours in the biggest wave of strikes on the city since the war began. The refinery hit supplies 40% of Moscow’s gasoline. I love the smell of Moscow’s oil burning in the morning.

Ukraine’s Startling New Message for Russia
Inside Kyiv’s secret drone program that’s hitting targets deep inside Russia.
On Thursday, #Ukraine unleashed its largest attack yet deep inside Russia, targeting an oil refinery near Moscow. The explosions sent plumes of black smoke billowing above the capital’s suburbs and shut down flights at four airports for hours. Russian officials reported downing hundreds of drones in the skies above Moscow and other cities.
“At the beginning, Russians believed they were conducting a special military operation. Now they understand that this is a war,” Commander “Vector” said. The message to #Russia, he adds: “‘This war has now reached your homes as well.’ We hope that message helps Russia bring this war to an end.”

President Zelenskyy gave Lukashenka one week to remove signal repeaters from Belarusian border towers that route Russian drones into Ukraine
The equipment corrects Russian fire on Ukrainian civilians. If Belarus does not act, Ukraine will, said Zelenskyy

Republicans right now are trying to ban IVF because “destroying an embryo is taking an innocent baby’s life” but meanwhile support the cops who killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley.
This is unsurprising because they never cared about actual children in general or Black babies in particular, but about controlling women and advancing white supremacy.
The Utterly Absurd Contractor Behind Reflecting Pool Renovation Disaster
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was renovated by a Trump donor who looks like he was plucked right out of a cartoon.

UnitedHealth Group
posted $6.2B in profits last quarter while
simultaneously denying 32% of all prior
authorization claims.
They made $6.2 billion. They denied one
out of every three medical requests.
You paid your premium. They denied your
claim. They kept your money.
This is legal. This is normal. This is
American healthcare.
Reintroduction:
Yeah. I'm a board certified practicing psychiatrist.
I enjoy overturning plutocracies, iconoclasm, egalitarian aims, and surviving my enemies.
Yeah. I had a larger account but needed a reboot.
No, I dont care about football, pro wrestling, or hockey in a material way, but they are nurturing distractions that prevent depression.
I think RFK is an ignorant loser but that the US Healthcare "system" is also a joke re: meeting needs of patients.
I'd rather read Malcolm X & Angela Davis than anything by anyone of influence in modern mainstream circles.
I *do* have ADHD.
I *do not* have a family as I disowned their Nazi asses.
Adieu.
I guess we'd have a clearer idea of who broke the ceasefire if somebody hadn't gone round killing all the journalists reporting in the area.....gee who was that do we think?
The amateur wants a decisive battle.
The professional wants their opponent to wake up one morning and realize every decent move disappeared three weeks ago.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A 56 yo survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)

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.
