Anything I missed?
(a thread)
Ukraine is facing significant artillery supply issues and has appealed to the EU for more supplies to ease critical shortages.
This is well above what the EU agreed to send.
Will ammo issues result in the end of the war or even a Russia victory?
CNN reports that the attack on the Bryansk region was carried out by Neo Nazis from the Ukrainian Army.
Is this a rogue battalion or is it systemic of Ukrainian ideology, as claimed by the Russians?
Nord Stream...
Was it Russia, was it the USA, were Nato allies made aware?
A new report states that Russia plans to repair the Nord stream but has no plans to make it operational.
German support for Ukraine is unwavering.
Putin signed a decree that if an “industrial enterprises disrupt the fulfillment of the state defense order under martial law, they will be subject to such a measure as external control.”
Martial Law? Dictatorship? Or ordinary war time measures?
Ukrainian forces have begun their withdrawal from Bakhmut.
Sources say that within 2 days there will be a complete takeover of Bakhmut by Russian forces.
Wagner forces have been confirmed to be crossing the Bakhmut river.
Russia winning the war?
The US has announced today the transfer of $400 Million in Military Aid to Ukraine.
What will be sent is armored vehicles, ammunition and explosives.
Long war ahead?
White House condemns push to block abortion pills
Walgreen announced it would no longer sell abortion pills by mail
Should everyone have the right to abortion pills or should this be controlled at the State or Federal level?
Rupert Murdoch admits that Fox endorsed the false notion of stolen election.
Is this a Trump ally who has now disavowed his stolen election claims?
Dominion Voting Systems have filed a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News.
Former President Donald Trump has sought a delay in the New York fraud case.
Trump wants to extend the deadline in order to review the extensive amount of documents filed in the case.
Is this fair or is this a delay tactic?
Long Covid side effects: the revelations continue
Recent study seems to provide insight into long covid which impacts the brain and health risks.
Has this got academic basis or this another form of scaremongering?

THE WEAPONIZATION OF THE JUDICIARY ACROSS THE WORLD — A THREAD
Across the world, leaders and opposition figures alike are accusing those in power of using the courts as political weapons.
From Imran Khan in Pakistan to Trump in the U.S., from Brazil to Venezuela, the charge is the same: justice turned into a tool of politics.
Let’s break it down 👇🧵
1. 🇵🇰 IMRAN KHAN: FROM PRIME MINISTER TO POLITICAL PRISONER
Imran Khan, Pakistan’s former PM, has faced over 150 cases since his 2022 ouster. Charges range from corruption to “terrorism,” even an “un-Islamic” marriage, which alone earned him 7 years in jail.
After the 26th Amendment (Oct 2024), the govt gained the power to handpick judges. Since then, Khan’s fate has been sealed in closed-door trials, denied bail, and rushed convictions, all timed to crush PTI before the 2026 elections.
Now under General Asim Munir’s “Asim Law”, the crackdown has expanded to his entire family:
Imran Khan - imprisoned over 2 years.
Bushra Bibi (wife) - jailed nearly as long.
Sisters - dragged through fabricated cases.
Nephews - tried in military courts, abducted from homes and cars.
This is not justice. It’s collective punishment.
It's a warning from a decadent system: your family is fair game if you dissent.
Instead of breaking Khan, the state has turned him into a symbol of persecution, and his family into martyrs of a system that has weaponized the courts for political retribution.
2. 🇺🇸 TRUMP: THE LAWFARE CAMPAIGN TO DERAIL 2024
Across the ocean, America’s 45th and current president faced his own political trial by fire.
Trump has been hit with 70+ charges: business records, classified documents, and election interference. Every indictment timed to collide with his 2024 run.
A judiciary hijacked to stop MAGA at the ballot box.
New York conviction (May 2024): prosecutors used a novel, untested legal theory to secure a guilty verdict.
Documents case: tossed by the court for DOJ overreach, confirming how shaky the charges are.
Judges like Juan Merchan slapped Trump with gag orders while ignoring conflicts of interest.
It’s clear: the Biden DOJ and Democrat-aligned judges were waging a coordinated witch hunt.
For Biden’s team, it was “justice.”
But the effect is the same: America’s choice in 2024 was almost decided in courtrooms, not polling stations.
