Ukrainian drones severely damage Russian frigate Admiral Essen, disabling its Kalibr strike capability In the port of Novorossiysk, drones from Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) struck the Russian Navy frigate β€œAdmiral Essen,” hitting equipment in the ship’s midsection. The attack targeted radars, electronic warfare systems and air-defense components. What happened on board after the strike, and how did it affect the ship’s combat readiness? A fire burned aboard the β€œAdmiral Essen” for 18 hours after the drone attack, SBU sources told the outlet RBC-Ukraine . The agency believes the ship sustained damage severe enough to prevent it from being used to launch Kalibr cruise missiles at Ukraine. The SBU said its drones breached Novorossiysk’s multi-layered air-defense system and hit the central superstructure. From now on, the β€œAdmiral Essen” will not take part in strikes and will be unable to launch its eight Kalibrs. β€œThe Russian frigate β€˜Admiral Essen’ suffered critical damage and can no longer employ Kalibr missiles,” the outlet wrote. The Ukrinform agency received additional details from SBU sources. Specifically, they named the systems damaged by the Ukrainian drones: - passive EW countermeasure - a grenade launcher that fired heat decoys to disperse the radio signal; - active EW system - the TK-25 complex for detecting radar operation and jamming; - air-defense system - MR-90 β€œOrekh” target-illumination radars; - part of the air-defense suite - the β€œFregat-M2M” search radar. The sources did not specify which piece of Kalibr launch equipment was damaged in the March 1–2 attack on Novorossiysk. However, the systems listed above have weakened the β€œAdmiral Essen’s” protection against air attacks.

The media always treats the more sensational Trump accusations in the Epstein files with a level of skepticism that would be appropriate for Jimmy Carter, not the guy who bragged about sexual assault on tape, was adjudicated guilty of sexual assault, and is currently overseeing murder dot gov.

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

Black graphic titled β€œEpstein Files Resignations” next to a photo of Jeffrey Epstein. A list names Peter Attia (CBS News), Richard Axel (Columbia), Leon Black (Apollo CEO), BΓΈrge Brende (WEF CEO), Larry Summers (Harvard), Tom Pritzker (Hyatt chair), Steve Tisch (NY Giants co-owner), and Kathy Ruemmler (Goldman Sachs CLO). Text at the bottom reads, β€œToo many resignations to be a hoax. Too few arrests to deny a cover-up.” Occupy Democrats branding appears at the bottom.

War does not change the facts. Resignations happened. The Epstein files still demand accountability. βš–οΈβ—

It is NOT in the national interest to go to war with Iran. This lawless POTUS is simply deflecting from so many crimes, and the legislators are ALL spineless sycophants. This was all predictable and our β€œleaders” have failed the people and our military.

The PEACE PRESIDENT is
willing to let young Americans die so not be held accountable for his pedophilia and the fact he knows he cannot win the midterms
Republican Leadership must stop his treasonous actions
Declared war without Congressional Approval

When Trump tells the CNN journalist that they're "fake news" at his conference after the Supreme Court ruling on tariffs, why don't they shout back that he's a fake president. What have they got to lose?

As the world reels from the president's rant and threats of additional tariff chaos, I'd just like to remind the UK that they recently arrested someone who could probably bring down this entire house of cards with very little incentive.

I’m stealing that!!

White bold text on a blurred, colorful background reads: I hope we keep waking up to a new, disgusting predator being arrested. Like an Advent Calendar for justice.

It is just that, metaphysically, she could see your soul, and knew you were such a good person you would not try and purchase wine illegally. Nuthin to do with your face.

I just woke up. Am I to understand that Mr Justice Originalist Thomas is of the belief that expressly committing a specific power to Congress in Article I is not enough to make it a core legislative power because the famously monarchist founders wished to preserve the prerogatives of the king?

When the cost of justice exceeds the means of the people, one should not be surprised when the people make their own.

A lesson today's aristocracy has yet to learn.

So, the importers get to keep the tariff dollars which the people paid, and they have to be reimbursed by the feds, making oligarchs richer, while pissants like you and I get..nuthin?

Trump's second term is shaping up to be an all-time disaster purely in terms of *his* policy priorities absolutely collapsing and it will be interesting to see how and when this finally filters into the way it's covered by the media

They're trying to make observing/filming ICE illegal.

Then we must show up in greater numbers.
