The irony is that it isn't a 'new' Ireland that's their problem, it's the 'new' Northern Ireland they can't handle.

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all. Slava Ukraini🇺🇸🇺🇦

Oskar Schindler passed away on October 9, 1974, and is buried in Israel. Pictured here are Holocaust survivors he saved, standing alongside individuals from the movie Schindler’s List at his grave in Jerusalem. 🧵

The lack of investment in the Mental Health Strategy for NI is one of the biggest failures of this Executive.
🧠 World Mental Health Day is an opportunity to reflect on the importance of prioritising our own mental health, and those of our loved ones.
🗣️ If you are concerned about yourself or someone you know and need urgent advice, seek help immediately.

Wow. This is insane
Rachel Campos-Duffy claims Ukraine has killed "a million kids on the Russian side"
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
No evidence supports Ukraine killing "a million kids" on Russia's side. UN OHCHR has verified roughly 820 child deaths total in Ukraine since Feb 2022, most attributed to Russian attacks, not the reverse. ukraine.ohchr.org/en/UN-human-ri…

I made her famous!
This is an older video I've never posted on X. Anne is my favorite discovery. Her post going viral on Instagram during the infancy of Model Strangers changed my life - and hers.
This and the same with an inquiry that labels the psni as institutionally misogynistic and with pay for health and education employees and on and on.
Parades though.
Righteous indignation.

Being relieved people weren’t battered off our streets to accommodate an Orange March, which could have escalated tensions and hate to pre-GFA levels, apparently warrants having the event that gave you PTSD thrown in your face repeatedly. This platform is an absolute cesspit.

This country is becoming a sick place. People gloating or finger wagging about the bloke who was mauled to death by a tiger. For all any of us know, the young man might’ve had learning difficulties or was suffering from a psychotic episode.

What a remarkably stupid post.
The PSNI deserve our praise for the way they have policed these protests. They were under enormous pressure to clear a path for the Orange Order and resisted.
Triumphalism like from your community or mine is unhelpful.

ALARMING! The new press secretary advocated for total federal military takeover of California.
But she has since deleted it … finally admitting she knew it was unconstitutional?

No, Trump hasn’t “settled eight wars.”
No, it’s not true that no other president ever settled “any” war.
No, Trump hasn’t “got Greenland.”
