Remember when Greg Abbott spoiled hundreds of millions worth of produce, contributing to inflation? He needs keepers like Trump has.

“Russia will definitely fall apart. It’s impossible to talk to them, to have any kind of conversation with them, they will deceive you. You can’t negotiate with them. If you negotiate with Russia, they need to be placed on a lower level, so that they know that when they climb in there they will get hit with a baton on the head,” said Chechen commander Muslim Madiyev, who came to Ukraine in 2016 and began to fight the russians together with the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
He stressed that the war cannot be frozen.
“Under no circumstances. They must be finished off, brought to the end. Katsap will understand only this way. They must be beaten, the army must be wiped out. Or they must be scattered throughout russia so that they can never gather again,”
- Madiyev said in an interview.

🐬 In the Black Sea in March 130 dolphins died
“Among those found were shell-shocked animals with symptoms of sonar damage. At the same time, many of the dead were white-sided dolphins. But now we have received terrible information about the large-scale death of dolphins - another 130 in March 2024 alone, whose bodies were found off different shores of the Krasnodar Territory - Sochi, Novorossiysk,”
Doctor of Biological Sciences, professor and scientific journalist Ivan Rusev wrote.
Rusev notes that the Russian fleet is constantly in those waters, using sonar devices that kill marine mammals.
“Previously, before the start of the war, dolphin strandings in March were a very rare occurrence. And now, according to our estimates, the real number of dead in 2024 is already several thousand animals , taking into account the fact that the sea throws out only 5% of dead bodies,”
Rusev added.
It's worth noting that before the movement of most of the Black Sea Fleet ships to Novorossiysk, the same situation with the death of dolphins was off the coast of Crimea.

Putin vs. Putin: Polls suggest even loyalists desire change in Russia's leadership.
In the aftermath of russia’s latest round of one-sided “presidential elections,” Kremlin authorities presented the public with results similar to those seen in places like North Korea — 87% in favor of the dear leader, at least officially. Yet pinpointing the true extent of support for Putin among Russians actually presents a challenge, as conventional opinion polls lose relevance when society is in the grip of a military dictatorship. However, researchers of public sentiment have observed a fascinating trend: when asked to envision the ideal leader for their country, even Russians who express staunch loyalty to the ruling regime and its policies describe someone vastly different from Putin. Moreover, when contemplating a vision of the state’s future, they advocate for a course diametrically opposed to their country’s current trajectory.
Paradoxically, even though many Russians appear loyal to the Putin regime and have accepted their lack of alternative political paths, they are not merely prepared for change — they actively desire it. This inclination may not be readily apparent to external observers and currently holds no capacity to influence the political process in the country. However, its existence indicates that if circumstances were to arise in which such changes could be enacted, people would offer them decisive support.

Video celebrates US man who fled child pornography charges to enlist in Z army
A former Massachusetts city council member who fled the United States in January just days before he was due to stand trial on charges of possessing child pornography has enlisted in the ruZZian military, according to a video being shared widely on pro-war Z-channels.
The video describes how the man, whom it refers to simply as 'Will', signed a contract with russia’s Dickhead Ministry and allegedly had already seen active combat in the battle for Avdiivka.
“I definitely would do it again, I’d go back if I could,” he told an interviewer while being filmed signing papers at a Z- military recruitment centre.
The video also said that “Will” had been persuaded to enlist by the Russian military’s signing bonus of 745,000 rubles (€7,450) and its bi-monthly salary of 150,000 rubles (€1,500).
However, the man in question has been identified by US TV station WWLP as Wilmer Puello-Mota, a 28-year-old former member of the US National Guard and an erstwhile city councillor in Holyoke, Massachusetts who appears to have left the US on 7 January, two days before he was due to appear in court in Rhode Island to face charges of possessing child pornography.
Puello-Mota’s Facebook page has been updated to say that he currently works for the russian dickhead Ministry in Moscow. It also features photos of the Kremlin and a picture of what appears to be Puello-Mota in russian military uniform operating a drone.

Ukrainian and Western intelligence services recruit Russians using hypnosis. - City Hall of Vladimir
The Vladimir administration published a video in which it warned residents about recruiters from Ukrainian and Western intelligence services. The video states that hypnosis is used to recruit apart from money and extortion.

A native of Chechnya, Askhab Uspanov, who was detained the night after the terrorist attack in Crocus, died in the Moscow police department. Relatives believe that security forces staged his suicide by hanging
Meanwhile state media showed a video of the interrogation of "suspects in the Crocus attack". After two weeks of "interrogation", the suspects not only changed their testimony, but also began to speak Russian
Russian TV channels published footage received from the FSB of the interrogation of suspects in the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall. In the video, the men actually repeat the version of the Putin regime about the “window” on the Russian-Ukrainian border, which, in particular, contradicts their initial testimony.
For example, in the FSB video, Saydakrami Rachablizoda and Muhammadsobir Fayzov say that they committed a terrorist attack for a million rubles. So somehow the bounty doubled during detantion. Because, at the time of detention, another suspect allegedly declared that he committed the terrorist attack for half a million rubles.
In addition, the Layout channel noticed that in only two weeks of interrogation by FSB officers, the detainees suddenly began to speak perfect Russian. After their arrest, Dalerjon Mirzoev and Muhammadsobir Fayzov communicated with the court and security forces only through an interpreter.
Is that called accelerated learning? 🤔

❗️54 Ukrainian prisoners of war have been executed by Russians.
The General Prosecutor's Office of Ukraine has opened 27 criminal cases regarding the execution of 54 Ukrainian prisoners of war.
Cases of executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war have been recorded since March 2022. The court has already sentenced the first Russian soldier for the execution of a defence lawyer in Chernihiv region. The investigation is complicated by the fact that prosecutors and investigators usually do not have access to the crime scene or the opportunity to examine the body.
⚡️The former U.S. President Donald Trum posted a video dedicated to the total solar eclipse, which North America observe on April 8.
In the video, under the words “The most important moment in human history will happen in 2024,” Trump’s head covers the Sun and plunges the world into complete darkness.
After this, the phrase appears: “We will save America. Let's make it great again."
In Trump's new ad he is the eclipse.
