"Exactly what Trump has always wanted - get rid of the income tax, especially for the wealthy, and implement a 'Users Tax' where the burden of payment will be on middle and lower income American consumers!

All Tariffs are paid for by US consumers!"
- Aure

Trump: "There is a chance that the money from tariffs could be so great that it would replace" the income tax.

The incredible story of the heroic rescue by drone operators of the 63rd Mechanized Brigade of a Defender from the 60th Mechanized Brigade who was wounded after a Russian drone attack and found himself in a critical situation.

Despite the deadly threat from enemy drones and bombs, Warriors were able to build a makeshift bridge across a swamp out of ladders, boards, etc., pull a wounded brother-in-arms across the river, and save him.

Peace is impossible without Ukraine recognizing Russia's "current territorial borders," Sergey Naryshkin, director of the Russian foreign intelligence service, said.

"The terms of the peace agreement certainly include the non-nuclear and neutral status of Ukraine, the demilitarization and denazification of the Ukrainian state, and thus, the abolition of all discriminatory laws that were adopted after the coup d'état in 2014.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte visited Odesa today together with President Zelenskyy:

"Today, we again spoke about the important talks that President Trump is leading with Ukraine as well as with Russia to try to end the war and secure a durable peace. These discussions are not easy, not least in the wake of this horrific violence [missile strike on Sumy], but we all support President Trump's push for peace.

Iran is expected to reject the American proposal.

Iran is expected to reject the US proposal to transfer its enriched uranium reserves to a third country (reportedly Russia).

Iran insists that the reservoirs will remain on its territory under international supervision, as a guarantee against a possible US withdrawal from the agreement. The regime's claim is that if the US withdraws from the agreement as it did in 2018, Iran will be forced to "start over."

The 137th airborne regiment of the Russian army received new equipment - an innovative Ural assault motorcycle of the 1965 model.

The motorcycle does not start yet due to its age.

I've written before that due to lack of modern equipment, Russians will be increasing the number of "meat assaults." They will be forced to go on combat missions with very low chances of survival. Putin doesn't care at all about that.

I wanted to share a part of the speech Ukraine's ambassador to Germany Oleksii Makeiev gave during the 19th Berlin Freedom Speech.

"So what is freedom?

The answer depends on who gives it. But also where and when. A few years ago, you could have heard the same answer on a Saturday night in Berlin's Berghain and in one of Kyiv's clubs. Today, you would hardly ask anyone in Kyiv at night. There is a curfew. And instead of techno, you hear air raids and kamikaze drones.

"I had enough strength. And then there was the adrenaline. When it's in you, you can do things you couldn't do before."

13-year-old Kyrylo Illiashenko, who helped people escape from a burning bus in Sumy yesterday, is still in the hospital.

Kyrylo and his mom were traveling by bus to their grandma's house and found themselves in the epicenter of a Russian missile strike.

French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Noël Barrot called on the European Union to impose the toughest sanctions against Russia "to suffocate its economy and prevent it from fuelling its war effort."

"This weekend, the horror in Ukraine reached its climax with the Palm Sunday massacre <...> It's proof, if proof was needed, of Vladimir Putin's contempt for civilian populations and the laws of war.

Incredible revelations from Lavrov the diplomat: he plainly states that the Russian Federation, a successor of the Russian Empire, traditionally does not make international treaties but makes "deals" based on "understanding".

Russia is only interested in official documents and international institutions for as long as they are to Russia's benefit.
If they stop working in Russia's interests - they must be dissolved (like Lavrov is suggesting for NATO in the video).

Trump Freezes $2.2 Billion in Harvard Funding Over DEI, Policy Dispute

Trump administration has frozen $2.2 billion in grants and $60 million in contracts to Harvard after the university refused demands to end DEI programs, alter hiring and admissions, and cooperate with federal immigration checks.

Harvard President Alan Garber said the university would not compromise its autonomy or academic freedom, calling the demands “unprecedented government interference.”
