This drive on the refineries, together with tightening the oil sanctions, could have some real strategic effect. Hoping and praying. And sending help to fighters, as I always have.

Let them leave! Nobody wants them in EU. They should get TF out!

Let them fend for themselves.

In fact, they should both be kicked out of the EU. Let them fend for themselves if they are working against Europe.

They should also get kicked out of NATO.

Exactly!

And they should leave a litte corridor of territory for Russia to take, so that Slovakia and Hungary get to border Russia while out of NATO. I would love to see that.

This guy is absolutely disgusting. And 28% of people still support him? Jesus,Slovaks, get your act together, get rid of this guy!

Slovaks, why are you allowing this Putler's puppet to drag your country through the mud? How could you vote in this piece of garbage?

Fico. Am I the only one whom Fico heavily reminds of another Slovak, one we know from history? Tiso.

I think the resemblance is undisputable. The führer is slightly different, but the quisling is the mirror image of his predecessor. In image as well as deed.

I am wondering, has their benevolent daddy czar ever heeded their requests? Has it ever happened that they did a public video request for something and their czar made it happen? Or has it always been in vein and they just keep doing it because it's cool?

Seriously? Bundeswehr can not down a single drone? Track down the signal, get the operator?

If that is the case, Europe is doomed.

I'm quite convinced that the tanker is going to rot in a Finnish port for years. Getting this ship up to Finnish standards costs more than the ship is worth and orks are going to just leave it there to inconvenience the Finns.

To me they all look like this.

Whoa, beautiful, almost a day later and it's still burning and exploding. Looks like there was more than fuel at the site.

Bang, baby, bang!

What a beautiful sight.

Oh, so now they even recognize that they are hated. Go figure:-)

They are hated because they are soulless orks, monstrous creatures devoid of humanity, morality, compassion, love and kindness. They are monstrous machines whose only feeling is hatred and only MO is murder.

What bothers me is that people are so indifferent to this kind of crimes. Horrendous crimes are being reported and people just shrug their shoulders and go back to watching their favorite influencer video.

Our society is sick. Not as sick as the Russians, but still sick.

And it looks like they'll get there by July.

Well, we can hope for them to shoot each other.

Wait a minute, I thought Musk and his sidekick Ramaswamy were going to cut all those useless wasteful subsidies and save taxpayers some serious money.

Or did Musk mean those OTHER subsidies, not those that go into his pocket? Really makes me wonder.

Insincerely hope this sentiment is widespread. I didn't see this interview as beneficial, especially as I see this Friedman guy as a crypto-putlerite apologist of Russian genocidal imperialism.

Don't forget he grew up in Moscow. He's behaving like a muscovite.

A day or two until breaking 800k. Also, looks like a million will be broken before summer rills around.

In English a "slap on the wrist" is a metaphor for an insubstantial, symbolic punishment. By saying they were giving corrupt people a "slap on the wrist", he was telling Americans that the fight against corruption is meaningless, symbolic.

I think this interview was a mistake. Zelensky used some English and when he didn't, the translation was poor. For corruption he kept using the metaphor "slap on the wrist", which was directly translated, but has a very different meaning in Ukrainian than it does in English. /1

He doesn't do excuses, he just pretends everything is going according to his genius 17 dimensional chess master plan.

I had a feeling there was going to be a coup some time early 2025. Looking forward to seeing the results :-)

Great job, SBU. You guys, together with HUR, are making a hell of a ruckus among overt orks and crypto-orks. Though I enjoy the greetings sent by HUR a tad bit more, since they end either in intensive care or the cemetery, your work is equally important and worthy. Thank you for your service!

It's important that we know of each other and that the Ukrainians know they are not alone in this.

I'm sorry for your loss. I wish I could honour your brother with more than what I just did. Thank you for doing the right thing. Orcs will be defeated.

Thank you for your efforts. Thus far I have only been supporting 🇺🇦 financially and morally (though I did those two to the best of my abilities, 20k over three years is a serious piece of cash for an average working Joe). I learned Ukrainian as a token of moral support.

Only as long as there is no responsibility. As long as people can manufacture fake accounts posing as real people and peddle an individual's or an organization's agenda.

Attach transparent legal liability to accounts and it's no different than bar talk.

And never ever ever forgive.

Liza is a part of me now. I will never forget her.

Right, and you can seek penalties and damages for harm caused by wrong speech. The same way waving your hand is not a crime, unless the hand hits someone and then you get charged with assault and possible damages.

Your suggestion is like cutting away people's hands because they might hit someone.
