Musk to be in charge of supervising his own companies
How many remember Jared Kushner for his part in the murder of an American journalist by a Saudi Prince?
Or his interception and diversion of medical supplies from "liberal" hospitals in New York.
Pete Hegseth has not washed his hands in 10 years because "germs are not real."
If you ever meet him, do the Howard Hughes mustard on the hand trick.
russian-installed court in DPR sentences 8 Ukrainian defenders of Mariupol for over 15 years
The Supreme Court of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) has sentenced eight Ukrainian servicemen from the 36th Separate Marine Brigade to prison terms ranging from 15 to 17 years, the Investigative Committee of the russian Federation reports.
russian courts often sentence Ukrainian soldiers to prison terms ranging from 10 to 20 years on charges related to alleged war crimes and actions against civilians during the ongoing war. However, these courts are criticized for lacking independence and transparency, especially in high-profile cases involving political dissenters, foreign nationals, or individuals linked to Ukraine.
The court proceedings took place within the jurisdiction of the self-proclaimed DNR, which is not internationally recognized.
According to the Investigative Committee, Denys Syvets received the longest sentence of 17 years, while Yurii Halatskyi and Vitalii Kyrylenko were sentenced to 16 years each. Leonid Bulava, Semen Beliak, Yaroslav Bozhkov, and Ihor Zharenkov received 15 years and 6 months each, and Pavel Bey was sentenced to 15 years and 3 months in a strict regime correctional colony.
The marines were found guilty under russian criminal code articles covering “cruel treatment of civilian population, use of prohibited means and methods in armed conflict” and “intentional damage to others’ property causing significant damage.”

◾️ russia treacherously attacked Ukraine and started a war.
🔹 Ukraine defends herself.
◾️ russia continues the war and escalation.

‼️ russia has to be forced into peace, not Ukraine.
Otherwise, at this rate, we will soon see statements like "Ukraine heads NATO and attacks russia" - and they won't come from russian propagandists.
russia will see all this and will start demanding reparations from the West while putin receives his Nobel Peace Prize.

Information appeared online that the captain killed in Sevastopol was Valeriy Trankovskiy, head of staff of missile ships in the Black Sea Fleet.
Transkovskiy is a war criminal who gave orders to launch cruise missiles at civilian objects in Ukraine that killed a lot of civilians.
The information was confirmed by the SBU. The liquidation of Captain 1st Rank Trankovsky in Sevastopol is a successful special operation of the SBU, according to the source in the special service.
"As a result of the explosion, his legs were torn off and he died from blood loss.", the source informed.
Trankovsky is a war criminal who gave orders to launch cruise missiles from the Black Sea at civilian targets in Ukraine. In particular, he shelled Vinnytsia with Kalibr missiles in July 2022. At that time, 29 civilians died.

Orban's hold on Hungary weakens as opposition unites behind unlikely challenger.
Orban's standing at home, practically unchallenged since 2010, has for quite some time allowed the prime minister to dictate his will to Brussels, Paris, and Berlin, with mixed success.
Yet, Orban's grip on Hungary looks weaker than ever, with a formidable challenger, Peter Magyar, set to pose a threat come election time in April 2026.
Orban is the country's longest-serving prime minister.

In her introductory statement, Ms Kallas, pledged to work on strengthening the EU’s position in the world and safeguarding its geopolitical and economic security. She also called for more investment in defence and stressed the importance of cooperating with international partners.
She emphasized that by supporting Ukraine, the EU is fighting for its own security and values, defending the UN Charter and its global principles. She warned that Russia, Iran, NK, and - more covertly - China, want to change the rules-based world order, and called on the EU to respond to this threat alongside its closest allies and partners “without losing an inch of who we are”.
