Not a single mention of Crispus Attucks, the first man to die in the American Revolution at the Boston Massacre of 1770. A Black-Wampanoag man born in Massachusetts, and our first martyr to the cause.

Former Ukrainian POW Oleksandr Strafun: From the moment of his release from Russian captivity in June 2025 — to just 2.5 months later, surrounded by love, proper medical care, and the support of his fiancée (now wife) Olena. This is what happens when life and love win and when it’s Ukraine 🇺🇦

FWIW, Huntsville is in Madison County, AL. It is a purple region. How it voted on 2024: 107,149 for Trump (53.7%), and 87,509 for Harris (44.7%). A difference of 17,640 votes (9.0%).

This is the Epstein List, in living and breathing form. We don't need ink on paper, we just need to believe these women who were violated as girls. We would be a stronger and kinder world if we did, and it would continue their healing process.

This will backfire on Putin because Russians will see how much more China has achieved in infrastructure by not going to war or embezzling trillions for Putin.

The seat belongs to the USSR, which broke up. It really should rotate between all of the breakaway states before Russia gets it again. Let’s start with Ukraine, then Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova (the free part), Azerbaijan, etc.

My neighbor said her mom died from polio in the 1950s. A sister was maimed, and died a decade later of respiratory failure - she had post-polio syndrome that wasted her muscles and she couldn’t breathe. Shocking that people want to allow this to come roaring back.

U.S. average household income in 1970 was $10,000 (with 1 earner), which adjusts to appx $83k in 2025. The average American household income is about $84k, but with more 2-earner households.
Countess Of Cats (@countessofcats.bsky.social) reply parent
Adjusted for inflation using the Bureau of Labor & Statistics calculator, July 1970 $420,00 = July 2025 $3,48 million. The jump to $16 million shows how extreme housing prices have grown over 55 years.

Imagine if in late 2021 when Biden knew this was coming, he gave everything to Ukraine and got their troops trained up on it. And didn’t restrict them from striking Russian territory or its oil fields. Trump is worse. But Biden was timid and fearful of high gas prices.

Interesting transfer of wealth from the treasury and sovereign fund (I.e. Putin’s piggy banks) to the Russian citizens. Plus all the money clawed back from billionaires. But even high wages are worthless if inflation continues at 20+% year on year.
