Israel Bolsters Security Amid Deadliest Wave of Terrorist Attacks in Years

Israel to host top Arab diplomats during Blinken's visit

Fresh joke from Russia.

Russia's government publishing office just published a new edition of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace

It is called Special Operation and Peace

The lies about Zelensky's statement on Babyn Yar must not be left unchallenged

To be clear, Zelensky never mentioned any particular monument in Babyn Yar. He never even mentioned Babyn Yar by name. There are several monuments located on the grounds of Babyn Yar, and the Menorah monument is just one of them. Seeing it intact in a photo, even assuming it was taken after Russia attacked the sight, is meaningless in itself. The grounds of Babyn Yar Memorial, about 500 yards long, extend far beyond the location of any particular monument, and BBC reported that the Babyn Yar memorial was damaged in Russia's attack (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-60588885)

We all saw the attack on the Kyiv TV tower, located some 350 yards away from the Memorial grounds, recorded live as it happened. There were multiple explosions during the attack, and five civilians were confirmed dead in its aftermath. What frigging difference does it make if five human beings were killed next to any particular monument or far enough away from it to not cause any damage to it???

This is not fog of war. Spreading lies about Zelinsky is just that: damn lies.

Today's anecdotal report from Moscow

Without going into detail, my wife is in touch with several long-time residents of Moscow. They report that the entire city is in shock over Putin's barbaric assault on Ukraine. Even the formerly staunch supporters of Putin are outraged with his naked aggression.

Right now, they are frozen in place with disbelief, trying to make sense of what is happening and how they could have been so easily deceived. Anecdotally, they tend to attribute the recent turn of events to Putin suddenly snapping out of his mind. Not a very convincing explanation for me, but, these people are shocked and lost for explanations. It might take some time for them to come to their senses.

One thing is for sure: all the polls from a week ago that were showing support for Putin in excess of 60% can be safely thrown out the window or otherwise disposed of.

As world leaders have cautioned for weeks, Russian president Vladimir Putin has launched what President Joe Biden called an “unprovoked and unjustified attack” on neighboring Ukraine.

The military operation has triggered international condemnation, with fears of mass casualties, and many are looking to support the Ukrainian people in some capacity, with donations that go towards medical supplies, humanitarian aid, psychological services, military equipment, and other causes.

A handful of vetted non-profit organizations have been shared by journalists for those looking to help, with various sites, apps, social media pages, and crowdfunding initiatives to provide monetary aid for various charities and platforms

There is also a crowdfunding web site set up by the Ukrainian government, but I can't find a link to it or information other than what's included in this article:

I wonder what the Mazars backpeddling on Trump's tax returns will do to Weisselberg.

He was the one who was submitting fake data for Trump's tax returns to Mazars. Ten years of fraud confirmed by a top accounting firm.

Trump may have a legitimate excuse to throw Weisselberg under the bus now, and Weisselberg may be looking forward to losing everything except his moustache. I wonder if this will loosen his tongue.

Navarro subpoenaed. Is he big enough to fall into DU's proverbial "big fish" category?

I know he is fishy enough.

Who has been subpoenaed so far by the Jan. 6 committee?

A pretty impressive list:

On edit: the Committee also sent a letter to Ivanka requesting her testimony "soon".
