@DogsTrust @patriciapinklad This is our latest rescue. Arrived on Thursday. He likes his new rescue friends Just not so keen on me. Come to think of it. Very much like the wife.

A gift today could help make underdogs like Flash feel loved no matter how long they stay in our care: bit.ly/47Bhg8n

Flash has been constantly overlooked through no fault of his own for 3+ years now 😔 We threw a special day for potential adopters to meet him & see how wonderful he is. After lots of planning and getting Flash spruced, ready & excited to greet his guests, no one turned up 💔

❗️Ukraine will export weapons it has a surplus of. Agreements already exist with the US, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Zelenskyy said.

I think this was the largest refinery that had never been successfully hit in the war, until today! Well done to all involved.

🇹🇷🕯️ Russians Kill Turkish Truck Driver During Shelling of Kyiv on September 28 Tevfik Bektaş, 55, from Sakarya, was transporting generators to Ukraine and was a father of three. Turkish media reported that the man was warned to take cover but remained in the truck cab, which was later hit by a missile.

Imagine being a general that just flew in from the Pacific on a few days notice and now you’re sitting there staring at an empty stage for a half an hour because a drug-addicted septuagenarian who dodged the draft 5x so he could ride around in daddy’s limo assaulting women is keeping you waiting to deliver his MAGA speech.

I've rarely felt so embarrassed, and this is one of them. As I said on June 15th: I am a Spanish Marine. The oldest Marine Corps in the world, our founding date was 1537. 🇪🇸 The U.S. Army should not be humiliated in this way, especially not because of its Commander-in-Chief and the Secretary of War. End of statement.

It's awfully quiet in Romanian speaking social media in the past few days. The Indians pretending to be Romanian or Moldovan have either gone silent or deleted their accounts after the massive defeat Russia suffered in the Moldovan elections. Just a few pathetic squeaks from the usual actually Romanian traitors who need to fill their post quota for a couple of rubles. It's nice. And you can actually see now that even online, most Romanians are pro EU, support Ukraine and hate Russia. But this quiet won't last long... They're regrouping, writing new scripts and they will be back.

💔🇺🇦😟 He has had to be so strong for his family For Ukraine, for his people For over 3 1/2 years he has fought so hard Relentlessly all day, every single day And never shown pain, weakness, anger or fatigue Thank you to you President Zelenskyy And thank you to all the Braveheart Defenders Fighting for their homeland & their families And for our freedom too . . never forget that 🙏 #StandWithUkraine

Russia Is a Paper Bear By ending energy dependence and backing Ukraine fully, the EU can outmatch Moscow. For decades, the Kremlin has worked hard to cultivate an image of Russia as a great power, a menacing bear whose shadow looms over Europe. But strip away the propaganda, and the reality looks far less impressive. Russia is a paper bear. Its power rests not on economic strength or demographic vitality, but on intimidation, brutality, and the West’s hesitation to act decisively. Consider the numbers. By nominal GDP, Russia’s economy is roughly the same size as Italy’s. Its entire output is just a fraction of the European Union’s, which is nearly nine times larger. Russia has little to show in terms of technological innovation or high-value industries, relying instead on fossil fuels and raw materials. Sanctions have deepened its isolation, forcing it to trade at a discount with China and India, while much of the world quietly turns away. Meanwhile, Moscow has sabotaged its own future by sacrificing close to a million soldiers killed or wounded in Ukraine, according to estimates from CSIS. Hundreds of thousands of men either dead or severely wounded. And even the surviving ones are permanently traumatized by the brutality of this genocidal war. This is a social and demographic catastrophe. Russia already faced a shrinking, aging population, with a fertility rate well below replacement and a life expectancy that fell after the pandemic. Now, with war, exile, and repression layered on top, its future workforce is collapsing. The supposed great power is bleeding itself dry. And yet, Russia manages to project power not because it is strong, but because Europe is divided. When the EU acts in fragments, Moscow exploits hesitation and fear. But when the EU is united, its strength is overwhelming. Economically, militarily, technologically, and diplomatically, a united Europe is vastly more powerful than Russia could ever hope to be. The challenge is not whether we can match Moscow, but whether we have the political will to act together. Europe has already shown what unity can achieve. In 2022, many feared that cutting off Russian gas would cripple European economies. Instead, the EU diversified its energy supply faster than anyone predicted, slashed its dependence on Russian oil and coal, and accelerated the green transition. Russia hoped to freeze Europe into submission. Instead, Europe adapted, Moscow lost its most lucrative markets — and now it’s them facing gas shortages. That lesson should embolden us: when we act together, we win. That unity also requires listening to those who know Russia best. In addition to Ukraine, the EU must pay serious attention to the voices of the Baltics, Nordics, and Central and Eastern Europe like Poland or Czechia. These nations understand, from history and proximity, the nature of the threat. We know what it means to live under Russian aggression or occupation, and we recognize the patterns of disinformation, coercion, and military posturing for what they are. Too often, our warnings were dismissed as alarmism. Now would be a good time to start taking them seriously. Ukraine has already demonstrated that Russia can be stopped. The Kremlin expected Kyiv to fall in days; instead, Ukrainian resistance has destroyed much of Russia’s modern military equipment, exposed its corruption, and shown the world that the “second strongest army in the world” is, in reality, barely the second strongest in Ukraine. Backed by Western support, Ukraine has proved that Russia is far weaker than its propaganda suggests. Europe is at a crossroads. We can continue to let Russia’s theatrics frighten and divide us, or we can face reality. The Kremlin is weaker than it pretends, and the EU is stronger than it realizes. The first step must be to stop funding Russia’s war machine by buying its oil and gas. The second is to send Ukraine whatever it needs to repel the invader. Every tank, missile defense system, and artillery shell that helps Ukraine defend itself also strengthens Europe’s security. And we should go further. Europe must stop reacting to Moscow’s moves and start setting the agenda ourselves. Russia thrives when we allow it to dictate the rhythm of crisis and escalation. But the truth is that Moscow no longer holds the cards. Europe, united and confident, has the resources, alliances, and political weight to lead. It is time to take the initiative back: Russia is much weaker than it seems.

‼️‼️‼️ BREAKING - 🇷🇺🇵🇱 According to preliminary information, Russia is preparing for a new provocation in Poland. Russian intelligence claims that Ukraine is allegedly planning a "staged scenario" in Poland involving Russian and Belarusian intelligence-sabotage groups, including the simulation of attacks on critical infrastructure in order to later blame Russia. ‼️🗣️ But! We all know very well that when Russia makes such statements public, it is usually because they are preparing provocations themselves. See the latest updates with us: @visionergeo

Never forget President Zelensky was the voice for Paddington bear for the Ukrainian language. Paddington Bear is responsible for the decimation of the Russian army and the Russian economy. And that’s amazing.

ILLINOIS GOV. J.B. PRITZKER (D): "It appears that Donald Trump not only has dementia set in, but he's copying tactics of Vladimir Putin. Sending troops into cities, thinking that that's some sort of proving ground for war or that indeed there's some sort of internal war going on in the United States is just frankly inane, and I'm concerned for his health."

@newstart_2024 This must be why my mother, diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2012, significantly improves cognitively when she receives IV antibiotics for UTI’s. The improvement is noticeable but temporary. I’ve pointed it out but doctors are uninterested.

@NicoleShanahan please ask this doctor to study Dr. Geert Hamer's "The New German Medicine" crafted decades ago that fully explains what Annelise Barron describes. This is not new. Neither is pleomorphism, or the ability of microbial populations to change or "morph" into another form if the terrain changes, as observed under dark field microscopes.

I was surprised to learn a couple years ago that bacteria can also change the Ph to affect viral entry—so even the initial viral infection itself is actually co-infection. It is not just that you become more susceptible to bacterial infection with a viral infection—it is way more synergistic than that. This startled me because of the recommendations away from antibiotics during COVID—but bacteria can actually help viral infections progress and virus can interact with bacteria. I had only heard the “antibiotics won’t work for a viral infection” common mantra. That is false. It’s synergy.

@newstart_2024 Pathologist Alan MacDonald examined 5 samples of glioblastoma multiforme, and found borrelia within each of the tumors. The subjects were from the Pacific Northwest, selected on a hunch by the caregivers that Lyme might be involved.
