Russia never talks about 1939–1941 because it was allied with Nazi Germany, and would have stayed allied even longer had Hitler not betrayed them

Trump's Air Force is holding a major in SOLITARY for calling for Trump's impeachment. He's been there 24 hours a day for over TWO MONTHS. Maj. Jason Watson stood on the Capitol steps in uniform, holding a sign that read "Impeach. Convict. Remove." He called for Trump and JD Vance to be removed from office. What happened to freedom of speech?

Go for a walk on almost any farm in Britain and ask yourself where a hedgehog might find food, water or shelter there. The rough edges, pockets of scrub, areas of unkempt long grass, piles of dead wood, marshy wet areas and ponds, all tidied away. There’s nowhere left for them.

Britain had about 30 million hedgehogs in the 1950s; we've got under 875,000 today. The population has dropped by about 97%. Shocking.

Lawrence O’Donnell: “Elon Musk will have to testify under oath in televised hearings where he will be presented with evidence that his destruction of USAID led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people through malnutrition, starvation, and disease because they were denied lifesaving medicines by Elon Musk and literally denied food in the middle of a famine by Elon Musk personally. Democrats do not fear the empty lying threats of Elon Musk who has no sword that he can threaten them with”

BREAKING: Donald Trump just announced that he is planning to sue to try and stop Alaska from certifying their election results should Mary Peltola win. He is laying the groundwork for delegitimizing the midterm elections because he knows he's losing. This has to be stopped.

PSA - pass it on A very reliable source of mine just finished the pollworker training, and she texted this …..“Just finished Poll Manager training! I passed all the classes. I want you all to know something…when you are checking in at the polls and they happen to write anything on your ballot before they give it to you to put in the voting machine…a letter, a checkmark, a letter star, an R or a D any writing of any kind…please request a new ballot. Your ballot will be disqualified if it is written on. Please be on the look out. Make sure poll workers do not write on your ballot. It will cause your ballot to be disqualified.”
Please forward this to everyone you know 
Make sure poll workers do not write on your ballot.
It will cause your ballot to be disqualified PassOn!Be cautious!

Trump saying Starlink has been restored in Ukraine is a lie. It should not be reported as news. Starlink (properly, Starshield) continuing to be speed limited is reality. That's the news. The United States is still helping the russians attack Ukrainians.

Mark Carney on Elon Musk throttling Starlink: "I search for the right adjective to describe whoever took this decision or group of people took this decision against a country that is literally fighting for the lives of the citizens against naked aggression."

Deleting 15 years of climate change data WE paid for so big oil can keep raping us on high prices seems criminal.

Jesus fucking Christ, Trump, Elon Musk and Congressional Republicans have become a threat to our country’s national security.

Every time Russian troops use Soviet symbolism is a stark reminder that this war is not about NATO or any other excuse. It is about restoring the Russian Empire, of which the Soviet Union was just one form

Musk has either refused Trump's request to turn on Ukraine's Starshield access, or Trump is lying, or both.

NEW: Trump called Musk and asked him to lift restrictions on a military-grade version of Starlink in Ukraine that the SpaceX chief had throttled, U.S. officials said. The system was working more normally Thursday, shortly after their conversation, per Us and Ukrainian officials

Ronan Farrow reported in 2023 that the Pentagon signed a SpaceX contract to keep Musk from being able to cut off Ukraine’s battlefield connectivity at will. Colin Kahl described it as a way to lock in service so Musk couldn’t just flip the switch. WSJ now reports U.S. officials say Musk ordered the Oct. 14 Starshield slowdown anyway, after speaking with Trump. If that reporting holds, the guardrail didn’t hold.

1/3 Musk ordered last week's slowdown of Starshield, which Ukraine fights on, after talking with Trump, per @WSJ. In '23 the Pentagon signed a contract with SpaceX to “prevent Musk from turning off the switch," per fmr Under Sec of Defense Colin Kahl. newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…

It’s very telling that restricting the ability of eligible voters to vote is seen as a win for Republicans.

Trump’s oil deal with Venezuela was negotiated in secret. Now we know why. The contract just leaked, and it doesn’t say what Trump says it says.  What it does say is that we bought 35 percent of a company for a penny a share. The company is run by Alejandro Betancourt, a Venezuelan businessman who’s been investigated for money laundering in Switzerland, Spain, and the United States. DOJ officials reportedly asked foreign governments to close those investigations and let him travel. The parent company is registered through a Barbados shell, so nobody can see who the other owners are. Any dispute goes to a court in Texas. One person involved said it was built to insulate the deal from future administrations. The company pumps about 200,000 barrels a day. America burns through that in 15 minutes. If this were a good deal, they wouldn’t have had to hide it. I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).
