He simply didn't want to go to war to kill innocent Ukrainians

Either that or he's extending Putins expansionist policies.

Though the proposed interim government may present itself as a step towards elections, critics view it as a manoeuvre to entrench military rule under a more acceptable guise — while armed conflict and political repression persist across the country.

Only this paragraph seems to have any sense of reality about the whole sorry story.

Imagine a bunch of terrorists next door crossing the border and killing 1200 of your citizens. 

So you're cool with ethnic cleansing?

Where to, it doesn't say he's a foreigner.

Doesn't factor into it if you are a MAGA supporter.

Whats the chances of him saying "This war would have never started if I was president"?

Unfortunately he's still saying it in the post Putin phone call Oval Office press meet. #Sad.

Do you know for a fact that he is still alive?

I don't know as I am not associated with him in any way. I am just saying that saying a person is "probably dead" because they stopped making YT vids is the most ludicrous assumption and leads to the cancer we see today in SM where lies and misinformation is spread needlessly.

I said probably. 

It's not ludicrous.

Saying someone is probably dead when they are alive and just not making YT vids is ludicrous.

hasn't updated his youtube channel in a month, so probably yes

That's a ludicrous assumption.

"Donald Trump lashed out at Walmart over its price hikes, telling the retail giant to “eat the tariffs.” 

He's gone full Kamala with price controls 🙂 The electorate must be so proud.

Almost $160 billion profit last year.

Someone who doesn't know the difference between revenue and profit and voted for tariffs. Sad and funny at the same time.

How far could those 2 guys have gotten?

Could they just plunder the place,  get a deposit from an unsuspecting buyer, or could they actually sell the place?

Surely thats up to the owner, which isn't you apparently?

Not yet seen a reason why having a pink card is beneficial.

How can someone be in a country 20 years and be so clueless about it?

Fake news

Who said it was news? This is the political soapbox forum where any amount of BS is game. Fact is the "Voices" section of The Independent is primarily dedicated to opinion pieces, editorials, and commentary rather than straight news reporting.

86 is slang for being expelled and banned from a bar, not for murder.

86 can be slang for any number of things. Kristi Noem is a massive bell end, as usual, for linking it to just one of those meanings.

The British press says the victim has already done time for cracking someones skull, so there is form.

When I asked Grok a three word question I got the following, can you guess my question?

The question’s broad, so let’s break it down. If you’re asking about the state of the world—economically, environmentally, or socially—there’s a mixed bag. Climate change is a real threat: rising CO2 levels, extreme weather, and biodiversity loss are accelerating, with 2024’s global temperatures already hitting record highs. Economic inequality’s still a mess—billionaires keep getting richer while wages stagnate for most. Geopolitically, tensions like U.S.-China trade wars and regional conflicts aren’t cooling off. Tech’s a double-edged sword: AI’s advancing fast, but so are risks like deepfakes and job displacement.

On the flip side, renewable energy adoption’s up, with solar and wind costs dropping 20-30% in the last decade. Medical breakthroughs, like CRISPR and mRNA vaccines, are saving lives. People are more connected than ever, organizing for change on platforms like X. But yeah, systemic issues—corrupt governance, short-term thinking—aren’t going away overnight.

TRUMP MUST STOP UKRAINE AID, if he wants PEACE

Some view Baabs' work as attempting to present both sides, as he has reported from Russian and Ukrainian perspectives. However, critics, especially in Western and Ukrainian circles, label him a Russia apologist, arguing his coverage often aligns with Kremlin narratives, downplaying Russian actions or emphasizing Ukrainian or Western faults. There’s no definitive evidence he explicitly supports Russia’s war, but his focus on questioning Western and Ukrainian accounts can give the impression of bias.
