In Kyiv, there’s a saying: if a high-ranking official comes here, the night will be calm. We’re ready to pay their rent — just let them come. The children would finally get some sleep, said a shop assistant. The night might be calm. UK Defence Secretary John Healey is on an official visit to Kyiv.
Just a moment of fresh autumn in Kyiv
The law & order Republicans don't seem to care about our children being raped by rich child rapists Our children will never be safe as long as the religious Republicans are in power It's the church that supports the rich child rapists
Almost every social network and media property is owned by a billionaire controlling the algorithm and programming for this very purpose.
First Bernie Sanders. Then the CDC directors. Now, more than 1,000 current and former HHS staffers are demanding RFK Jr. step down just in time for his testimony before the Senate Finance Committee on Thursday.
We know he is an adjudicated rapist. I think RICO is more important than using his beauty pageants to traffick foreign minors to the island. {I am MeToo} HUGE amounts of MONEY, which changed hands through Epstein, were funneled to our want-to-be US Politicians. To Whom? From Where? For What Favors?
Marina Lacerda, who provided key evidence that allowed prosecutors to charge Jeffrey Epstein with sex trafficking in 2019, is speaking out publicly for the first time. abcnews.go.com/US/epstein-f...
"Now, together as survivors, we will confidentially compile the names we all know were regularly in the Epstein world. And it will be done by survivors – and for survivors. No one else is involved. ...Because history is watching – and so are the women who will come after us." Epstein survivor
Indeed it is. And the more he plays his tricks, the more certain we are that he's on the list, probably more than once. Of course who knows what went on at Mar-a-Lago.
Money seems to always be the driver for 47, so I am sure he was in on the action of this apparently lucrative business .
I never thought she would stand up against 47.
Davies: The truth is Epstein had a free pass. He bragged about his powerful friends, including our current President Donald Trump. It was his biggest brag actually.
Epstein survivor on Epstein: "His biggest brag forever was that he was very good friends with Donald Trump."
Digest this. The White House deems bringing justice against pedophiles a "hostile act."
These survivors and their family members are stronger and more courageous and better at speaking publicly than the overwhelming majority of people in public office. This is so incredibly powerful.
Fox refuses to cover what the Epstein victims are saying publicly for the first time, but they are covering military jets flying over them during their press conference.
I am sure 47 arranged that to happen and I see Fox news is still in his pocket.

I endorse this message.
Yes Chris! Look at the crowd of supporters for the SURVIVORS #EPSTEINFILES WE STAND WITH THE SURVIVORS
Evidencd that the Jeffrey Epstein scandal remains a potent political threat to the Trump admin: Fox News has largely ignored this morning's dramatic Capitol Hill press conference by Epstein survivors. Fox has only covered it briefly while CNN and MSNBC have carried it all live.
Greetings from Kyiv. Last night, russians attacked Ukraine with more than 500 drones and missiles. Strikes were recorded in 14 locations. Kyiv was relatively calm. Warcoffee time.
Trump Crawls Out of Hiding—Straight Back Into His Epstein Scandal
As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.
Long ago, I practiced learning a poem every day. It strengthened my memory. I want to return to this practice, so I bought a book of Ukrainian love poetry. Maybe you’ll find my experience useful (or a little inspiring 😉).
Kontraktova Square in Kyiv is being reborn through TORV, the world’s largest pop-up urban space, turning neglected asphalt into a vibrant place for people, community, and resilience. Yes, during the war! Ukraine is a great example to follow.
Tonight may bring another attack. But I want to share Ukrainian art. Olga Sliota, Muse, 1999 Spectacular. We are more than the war here.
Greetings from Kyiv, where the air raid alert has been ongoing for three hours. Drones. I’m furious that children have to spend their second day of school in shelters.
Listen up folks
Trump knew exactly what he was doing by stripping the federal workers. Especially the thousands of Black women. This was intentional.
When these little MAGAT's send me a hate filled and racist email like this guy Sonny Blackmon did, rather than get upset I choose to shine the sunlight on who they are.
Republicans control the Senate But with Roy Cooper in North Carolina, the emergence of @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social in Iowa and Sherrod Brown maybe returning in Ohio, the map looks a lot better If Democrats beat Susan Collins and @ossoff.bsky.social holds his seat, the balance of power will change

The most corrupt administration in the history of the universe! 🤨👇🏼
Holy smokes This is the crowd at the Bernie Sanders/Graham Platner Fighting Oligarchy event in Portland, ME tonight Platner is the oyster farmer challenging Susan Collins; Senate seat👇 Overwhelming turnout! I feel like maybe Susan's number is finally up ..
📌 Nice to see D.C. show up day after day. ✊🏼 Power to the people!
National Nurses United Called For Firing Or Resignation Of RFK Jr "RFK Jr's tenure at HHS has been one disaster after another, dangerously eroding public trust in the institutions critical for the health and safety of all Americans. Time for him to go.” www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nation...
30 cases of voter fraud annually, and the GOP passes 104 voter suppression laws. 47,000 gun deaths a year, and the GOP does absolutely NOTHING.
Countries on track to eliminate cervical cancer: -Australia by 2028 -Sweden by 2027 -Rwanda by 2030 -UK by 2040 -Indonesia by 2030 -Bhutan 2030 -El Salvador by 2030 -Canada by 2040 How? HPV vaccine. Same one RFK Jr is trying to ban. You will note USA is not on this list.

1st century CE. The artifacts you see are from the Ust-Alma necropolis in Crimea, an ancient burial site (1st century BCE - 4th century CE) that holds tombs of Scythians and other peoples of the region.
Just a photo from today. I haven’t shared my Kyiv photo moments here for a while.
And now about the war. As of August 25, due to russian war in Ukraine, 1,553 cultural heritage sites and 2,388 cultural infrastructure facilities have been destroyed or damaged. – Ministry of Culture and Strategic Communications of Ukraine
The next US Senator from Maine, Graham Platner.
Trump could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue and get away with it, Netanyahu could kill 53,000, and Putin could kill millions. The table of impunity only gets longer. It’s important to fight tyrants at all levels. #3E
Ursula von der Leyen&Donald Tusk have arrived at the Polish-Belarus border to discuss security issues. Ursula von der Leyen: We have to keep this sense of urgency because we know that Putin will not change. He is a predator. In the last 25 years,he started 4wars,Chechnya,Georgia,Crimea, …#Ukraine.
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
Netflix is putting its money where its mouth is: 💰 $2M to back Newsom in the redistricting fight 📺 A deal for Sesame Street — new episodes and the full archive free to watch. That’s how you pick a side.
Man, I feel this. 🙏🏽😭
My wish for the day...

Not today, Satan‼️ Got this garbage in the mail a few days ago. Republicans trying to trick California voters into voting NO on Prop 50. Suddenly they care about “democracy”? Please. Vote YES on Prop 50. Don’t let the cheaters write the rules.

Russia is at war against Europe this is a War against Democracies are they watching the meeting in China after the EU made deals with them? And Europeans like Americans are clueless. This is a War on ALL of us and our leaders are not fighting it or defending us. They pretend it 's only Ukriane.
I’m on the road to Washington, D.C., to talk to Americans and the people who are supposed to be looking out for them. Are they? We’ll find out...
I just feel #RAGE 24/7

After senators were blocked from Gaza, CAIR says Congress can’t look away.
I finished this embroidery last night and it will also be available to purchase at our Craft Fair Fundraiser for Gaza next Sunday 9/7 from noon to 6 pm at Another World in BK.
He doesn't care about anyone's rights but his own. Remember that everyone who backs him, when yours are taken away.
President Trump has ended collective bargaining rights for more than one million federal workers. Unions have sued to block the move, but agencies are terminating contracts as litigation continues.
Rashida Tlaib will always and forever be my chosen Congressperson - that other genocide enabler who claims to represent my district can go kick rocks. May all the ancestors, spirits, deities, forces of nature and people of Detroit protect her now and always. ✨
When our working families are strong, Minnesota is strong. That’s why we’ve established paid leave, expanded the right to collectively bargain, and why we’re investing in the projects creating the union jobs of the future. Happy Labor Day, Minnesota.
As we begin a new month, my law firm is litigation 51 voting and election cases in 25 states. 6 in Arizona 6 in Georgia 4 in Florida 4 in North Carolina 8 involve redistricting

A calculated long game. “The seeds of this effort began years earlier, shortly after Barack Obama was first inaugurated. The birther conspiracy had dogged Obama since he first ran for the presidency. By 2010, birtherism had become a fixture on conservative blogs and forums.”
My brother- in- law was retired military and believed until the day he died at 88! Our military has been brainwashed for years. They could stop blasting fox news day and night for a start to regain belief in democracy.
Good Morning Happy Labor Day President Biden Honoring and Acknowledging American Workers "The Heart and Soul of our Nation" Just a few minutes ago Trump...nada..nothing... Enjoy your day Celebrate Workers #UnionStrong #LaborDay
Good to hear from you. Always start my day by reading your first post and knowing you are OK.
Greetings from Kyiv! Having my warcoffee (and cold lemonade - it’s hot outside) in a cosy bookstore.
At Union Station, veterans play a speech from General Mark Milley warning soldiers of the threat that President Trump poses.
