❗️Lavrov: Russia will not agree to a ceasefire along the current front line as a condition for starting negotiations.
"We’re ready for negotiations. But we won’t let anyone trick us anymore. Although, sometimes we can be naive, and our simple-mindedness can be used to deceive us yet again. But we’re on high alert right now," he added.

USAID should be called USCON

How many people has Elon Musk personally murdered via his work helping defund USAID? I've run the numbers. USAID, as people outside of CNN's viewership already know, operates largely as a CIA cutout, placing assets on the ground in countries where the U.S. govt is intervening politically. USAID was instrumental is helping seed the following revolutions/coup d'états/civil wars: Serbia — Bulldozer Revolution (Oct. 2000) Venezuela — coup attempt + sustained OTI funding (April 2002) Georgia — Rose Revolution (Nov. 2003) Ukraine — Orange Revolution (2004) Haiti — Ouster of Aristide (Feb. 2004) Lebanon — Cedar Revolution (2005) Belarus — opposition funding, "Jeans Revolution" and after — attempted, failed (2006) Honduras — Coup against Zelaya (Jun. 2009) Cuba — ZunZuneo / "Cuban Twitter" — attempted, failed (2010–12) Tunisia — "Arab Spring" (2011) Egypt — "Arab Spring" (2011–12) Ukraine — Euromaidan / Revolution of Dignity (2014) Bolivia — anti-Morales funding; 2013 expulsion; 2019 ouster Kyrgyzstan — Tulip Revolution (March 2005) Without U.S. intervention, it's hard to see how any of these would have gotten off the ground. Some back-of-the-envelope math on these conflicts' bodycount: Venezuela (2002): 19 Haiti (2004): ~300 Maidan event (2014): ~100+ killed. Bolivia (2019): 36 Donbas war (2014–2022): 14,200–14,400 military & civilian deaths. Ukraine full-scale war (2022–present), deaths, both sides, mil + civ: roughly 350,000–500,000 killed. So far we're up to somewhere north of 365,000 deaths, more likely north of 500K. What else do we have? USAID also helped fund poppy (heroin) farmers in Afghanistan. Unfortunately I haven't seen estimates of how many have died as a result of this taxpayer funded drug dealing, but I'm assuming they're not small numbers. USAID also worked with groups sexually abusing/trafficking children in Kenya (2021), and the Central African Republic (2013). Much earlier, during Vietnam, USAID helped the CIA arm & feed Hmong guerrillas fighting communist forces (not the worst thing). USAID also helped the Hmong militia & other warlords smuggle opium (a far less forgivable thing). While the final tally is hard to properly calculate, if past is predicate, in helping shutdown USAID, @elonmusk could be saving hundreds of thousands of lives, thousands of African children, & millions of people around the world susceptible to opiate addiction. Get this man a Peace Prize, @NobelPrize

Lavrov compares Zelensky to Hitler
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov claimed that Volodymyr Zelensky is behaving like a “Führer” while commenting on Kyiv’s statements regarding potential peace talks with Russia.
According to Lavrov, Zelensky is allegedly setting unrealistic conditions not only for Moscow but also for Ukraine’s European allies, while trying to dictate who should represent Europe in future negotiations.
“A Führer is a Führer,” the Russian minister concluded.

BREAKING: Elon Musk calls for the arrest of Ro 'the Robber' Khanna.
The U.S. Department of Justice announced that a USAID official and several executives pleaded guilty in a bribery scheme involving more than $550 million in contracts.
Yet Ro Khanna is claiming Elon should be investigated over DOGE spending cuts.
The standard applied by DOGE was very simple: if taxpayer money is being sent as aid, there should be a way to verify who received it and make sure the money isn’t being stolen or misused.
The DOJ is uncovering corruption connected to USAID contracts, Ro Khanna is attacking the person who pushed for transparency.
Elon simply asked where taxpayer money was going and whether it was actually reaching the people it was meant to help.
Ro “the Robber” Khanna should be in prison.

🇦🇪🇮🇳🇷🇺 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐈𝐍:
The UAE is in talks with India to acquire the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile, a system developed through the India Russia joint venture BrahMos Aerospace, based on Russia’s P-800 Oniks design.
English
Absolutely. This is a total lie.
All DOGE did was require contact with the aid recipients to confirm that funds were being used legitimately. Anything less than this is insane!
Multiple people from USAID have been charged by the Justice Department with stealing money.
Moreover, they pled GUILTY!!

For years, I raised alarms about dangerous gain-of-function research being farmed out to foreign countries, and I was told it was a conspiracy theory. Now, declassified documents show that the U.S. funded over 120 biolabs across more than 30 countries. Some of this research was conducted overseas precisely because scientists knew it would face scrutiny on American soil.
I'm calling for a presidential commission of scientists to review all gain-of-function research going forward. We're going lab by lab and pathogen by pathogen until the American people know the full truth.

Daily reminder that attacking the Vice President is an attack on the President. If you pretend you’re a Trump/MAGA loyalist for access you don’t get to say “I only attacked JD”.
