MAGA Confident It Could Defeat Ukraine, Despite Most Supporters Being Unable to Defeat a Flight of Stairs
Did you know that if MAGA went to war with Ukraine, Ukrainian soldiers would probably have these overweight, unhealthy American patriots running for their lives before lunchtime?
On one side, Ukrainian soldiers hardened by four years of trenches, artillery, freezing winters, Russian tanks, and relentless drone warfare.
On the other, MAGA warriors whose most demanding military exercise involves climbing into an oversized pickup truck without spilling a milkshake.
Ukraine has mastered modern warfare, battlefield medicine, and drone technology.
MAGA has mastered drive-through ordering, reclining leather seats, and threatening civil war from air-conditioned living rooms.
Military analysts predict the MAGA offensive would collapse within minutes after commanders discovered the battlefield had no parking, Wi-Fi, or nearby McDonald’s.
The Ukrainian counteroffensive would reportedly encounter little resistance, although several MAGA units might refuse to surrender until someone explained whether prisoners received unlimited refills.

🇬🇱 Greenland’s new international airport in Ilulissat has officially been approved for operation by the Danish Civil Aviation and Railway Authority.
Construction work and preparations for the new airport began in 2020.
This means that the last of Greenland’s three new airports is now ready, giving the Disko Bay region and North Greenland a new gateway to the rest of the world.
With a 2200-metre runway, the airport will be able to accommodate larger passenger aircraft, opening the door to direct international flights, shorter travel times, and new opportunities for tourism, business, and cargo transport.
“We are now ready to welcome the first passengers to the new Ilulissat Airport. We have been looking forward to this for years, and hundreds of people have worked hard to make this historic expansion of Greenland’s infrastructure a reality,” says Jens Lauridsen, CEO of Greenland Airports.
Today: Air Greenland’s Airbus A330neo is on its way from Copenhagen to Ilulissat for its first-ever landing at the new international airport.

You would have to be a fucking moron to believe this.
At his rally in South Carolina, Trump just made the ridiculous claim that a lot of children are getting transgender reassignment surgery without parental consent.
He then says there are new clinics opening up that are "putting the pieces back together."
You know, a lot of these kids, when they have surgery, and they're young ages, in some cases, they just take them and do it. They don't even get parental. It's not even believable. Tim leaves home. He comes back a few days later as Sarah. And people think, oh, oh, we actually have, we actually have, I guess, five states. They're allowed to do whatever the hell they want to do. It's the craziest thing. No parental checks. Don't even talk to the parents. It's crazy. It's crazy but you know a lot of these things, people, they they age and they're 22 years old 25 and they say 'who did this to me who did this to me?' Now they actually have a lot of hospitals that are working on trying to put the pieces back together."
@grok fact check what Trump said.

Witkoff tried to convince Budanov of how rich he could be if he sold out his country by allowing Russian pipelines to again flow through Ukraine. Budanov ended the meeting.
Content of Tense Conversation Between Budanov and Trump's Team Revealed
Negotiations between the Ukrainian delegation and Donald Trump's special envoys in Miami, as reported by Le Monde, escalated into a conflict. According to the publication, during a three-hour meeting at the Shell Bay golf club, Steve Witkoff "with irritation" demanded that Kyrylo Budanov, head of Zelenskyy's office, cease strikes on Russian oil refineries.
Budanov, per Le Monde's information, "barely contained his anger" and felt that he was being "treated like a child, trying to teach him how to make money." The Americans presented an ambitious plan for postwar "regional prosperity," which envisioned resuming the transit of Russian oil and gas to Europe through Ukraine, with dividends paid to Kyiv.
Budanov was outraged that such a deal would tie Ukraine to Moscow, after which the negotiations broke off. When the meeting resumed, the Americans proposed accepting a deal for supplies of Russian diesel to the United States.
The publication's sources noted that they had never seen Ukrainians "so upset and alarmed." Zelenskyy's entourage described the situation as "hopeless," since Trump's envoys "think only about business."

“This spring, the U.S. military faced a similar dilemma in the Middle East. According to a Reuters report that cited Pentagon documents, U.S. forces used Starshield to pilot their drones for strikes against Iran. When SpaceX found out, it raised the price for Starshield service in that region from roughly $5,000 per terminal per month to $25,000. The Pentagon agreed to pay.
In Ukraine, Musk could be attempting a similar upsell.”

Lavrov should not be allowed in the country. As long as Putin is waging war against Ukraine and bombing cities, Russian leaders should not be welcomed in any of these forums. They lead a pariah state.

Trump’s GREAT diesel deal with Putin is working wonders!
Since the announcement, the average price has seen a NEGATIVE PRICE REDUCTION – from $6.28 to $6.35 per gallon [WSJ].
The art of the deal!

This is like rolling out the red carpet for Ribbentrop in 1940. I wish European leaders would boycott it.

Another large group of Russian troops has surrendered near Kupiansk. Ukrainian forces are clearing old Soviet gas-pipeline networks. Mud-covered men emerge from a concrete pipe. Then they kneel beside armed personnel.
Forty-five days ago, Putin claimed Russia had “liberated” Kupiansk. His soldiers are now surrendering near the town he declared taken. Moscow can announce a victory. It cannot make the troops sent through those pipelines hold it.

Sergey Lavrov is due in Atlanta on October 30-31 to lead Russia’s delegation at the G20 foreign ministers’ meeting. He has been under US sanctions since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Now Trump’s administration is allowing him onto US soil for a diplomatic stage.
ATLANTA
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova says Lavrov will attend in person. He intends to sell Moscow’s vision of a “multipolar world” to the assembled ministers. That phrase sounds like a theory of international order. From the foreign minister of a state waging war on Ukraine, this also works as an attempt to make Russia’s war look like ordinary great-power politics.
MIAMI
The Atlanta meeting is preparation for the G20 leaders’ summit Trump plans to host in Miami this December. Lavrov’s appearance comes before that gathering, giving Moscow a chance to work the room and push its message. A sanctioned representative of the invading state gets the microphone while Ukraine continues to bear the cost of the invasion he defends.

Thank you Main Bastards 🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️
Today, the UK government announced the allocation of an additional £10 billion in aid to Ukraine.
This British assistance does not simply help Ukraine continue its fight. It is an impulse of resilience at a time when the enemy is trying to force Ukraine to capitulate through terror against peaceful cities. This is support that truly saves Ukrainian lives.
I am grateful to Prime Minister @andyburnham , His Majesty's Government and all the people of the United Kingdom for their principled stance and concrete actions within the framework of our strategic partnership. Thank you for standing alongside Ukraine in the fight for freedom, security and a just peace🇬🇧🇺🇦
