1/ Russian bloggers are waking up to the fact that they live in an oppressive dictatorship with declining living standards. 14 years after Vladimir Putin was reelected as "a strong leader for a great country," commentators are asking: what has Putin ever done for us? ⬇️

😁 Former Russian Deputy Defense Minister Tsalikov, Shoigu's right-hand man, was found to have hundreds of millions in real estate.

He is accused of creating a criminal organization, embezzling budget funds, and accepting bribes.

Even more surprising is that all of this came to light after 2024.

The rhetoric is ramped up between Hungary and Ukraine.

Will OrbΓ‘n join Russia's attack? He threatens to use force ("financial and political") against Ukraine.

Zelenskyy responded he will "send our soldiers to talk to him"

A mad king's illegal war on Iran is a cry for regime change...in Washington | Will Bunch Democracy really did die in darkness as Donald Trump's unconstitutional war on Iran stamps America as a dictatorship.

No wonder Trump went to war with Iran in the dead of night, with the Capitol empty, most Americans soundly asleep

This war is illegal. Full stop. The worst abuse of presidential power in American history aims to cement a dictatorship on U.S. soil

Even if Iran were an β€œimminent threat” (it wasn’t, any more than the fishing boats he blew up thousands of miles away were), that would not legally justify his taking military action without Congressional approval.

Trump administration labels Iran a state sponsor of wrongful detention β€” CBS News Ahead of the decision to launch military strikes, the U.S. issued a designation that enables punishing Iran for detaining Americans for political leverage.

The irony of a Trump labeling Iran a sponsor of wrongful detention when US citizens are being imprisoned without due process or warrants would be funny if it wasn’t so outrageous.
Trump is bombing a country that is doing what he aspires to be.

Georgia's regime shut down its best university, criminalized foreign funding, and made it illegal to protest on a sidewalk more than onceβ€”all in weeks.

Georgians have protested daily for 450 days. Regime's response: go after everything at once. Universities, NGOs, pharmacies, car imports, sidewalks

A square photographic artistic meme "Not a Concentration Camp" Β© 2020 by Chris Britt as follows:

The scene is a large crowd of children inside a fenced in area. On the fence are signs: "TRUMP MIGRANT CAMP" / "CAGE THE LITTLE ANIMALS" / "CRIMINALIZE" / "DEHUMANIZE" / "STIGMATIZE" and lastly a small sign that says "SHOWERS" with an arrow.

Also inside the fence is a big fat guy wearing a black Nazi uniform with the letter "T" all over it and saying this into his voice bubble (to the children): "THIS IS NOT A CONCENTRATION CAMP! I REPEAT..."

This is a lie. The current administration has been pushing Ukraine to accept peace on Russian terms. They have demanded that Ukraine cede sovereign territory and accept caps on the size of its military. Furthermore, they have suspended military aid, intelligence sharing, and even arms sales
