Russia seized four Ukrainian border towns in the northeast late Monday while tempering down its bombing campaign after three days of intense aerial attacks.

The move comes just days after President Trump claimed Russian President Vladimir Putin has gone “crazy.”

Oleh Hryhorov, the head of the Sumy regional military administration said Monday that Russian forces captured four villages: Novenke, Basivka, Veselivka and Zhuravka. He added that the local population was evacuated early so that they would not be in danger.

The land seizure comes less than a week after Putin ordered the military to formulate a buffer zone along the Russian border with Ukraine. Sumy Oblast borders Russia’s Kursk region, an area the Ukrainian military occupied parts of during last year’s offensive.

Russia launched 60 drones into Ukraine overnight, according to the Ukrainian military. The nation’s Air Force said early Tuesday that 43 Shahed drones were downed in the east, north and south of the country.

A NON-VERBAL autistic boy, 4, has tragically died from a curable snake bite after being unable to tell anyone what had happened.

Italo Alves dos Santos had been playing at his grandma’s home in Equador city, Brazil, when a deadly rattlesnake bit his foot.

Despite predictably being in absolute agony, Italo wasn’t able to tell his family he was bitten.

Instead, the four-year-old could only point to his swollen ankle due to being non-verbal.

Italo’s worried family feared he had twisted his ankle and took him to the hospital.

‘A Man Who Wants Results’: Trump And Kremlin Agreed To Prisoner Exchange, Russian Foreign Minister Says– dailycaller.com

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Tuesday that Russia and the White House have agreed to a prisoner swap, according to NBC News.

Lavrov did not provide any additional details as to the nature or persons involved in the swap in his remarks during multilateral negotiations involving Russia, Turkey, the U.S. and Ukraine in Istanbul, Turkey, according to NBC News. The deal would be the second such swap in as many months, as Russian-American woman Ksenia Karelina was released in April after being imprisoned on treason charges in exchange for Russian national Arthur Petrov.

The exchange comes in the backdrop of stalled negotiations between the U.S., Ukraine and Russia to end the three-year war. In light of the slow-moving talks, President Donald Trump has reportedly become frustrated with Putin, and has considered implementing new sanctions against Moscow, a number of unnamed sources told The Wall Street Journal Tuesday.

Trump Media & Technology Group announced on Tuesday that it has entered into agreements with 50 investors to raise roughly $2.5 billion in capital to invest in bitcoin.

TMTG, the company behind President Donald Trump’s Truth Social platform, said in the announcement that the proceeds from the investment would create a bitcoin treasury, a move it hailed as one of the “largest Bitcoin treasury deals of any public company.”

“We view Bitcoin as an apex instrument of financial freedom, and now Trump Media will hold cryptocurrency as a crucial part of our assets,” Trump Media CEO and Chairman Devin Nunes said.

“Our first acquisition of a crown jewel asset, this investment will help defend our Company against harassment and discrimination by financial institutions, which plague many Americans and U.S. firms, and will create synergies for subscription payments, a utility token, and other planned transactions across Truth Social and Truth+. It’s a big step forward in the Company’s plans to evolve into a holding company by acquiring additional profit-generating, crown jewel assets consistent with America First principles,” Nunes continued.

King Charles fires warning shot to Donald Trump amid Canada threats in historic speech– www.mirror.co.uk

The King has delivered a warning shot to US President Donald Trump after his verbal attacks on Canada, saying the country is “strong and free”. During a historic address for the opening of parliament at the Senate in the capital Ottawa, he appealed for calm in light of Canadians “feeling anxious and worried about the drastically changing world around them”.

The King’s visit to Canada, one of the 14 realms where he is head of state, comes in the wake of prolonged aggression from Trump who, amid a global trade war, has claimed the country should become the 51st state of America. Canadians reacted with horror over the outlandish suggestion, with new prime minister Mark Carney insisting during a tense meeting in the Oval Office that his country would “never ever” be for sale.

Speaking today from a throne carved from a Canadian black walnut tree and donated English walnut from a forest behind Windsor Castle, the monarch said Canada faced a “critical moment” in its history. He also received a rapturous applause from those gathered after he delivered the line “strong and true”.

He said: “Democracy, pluralism, the rule of law, self-determination, and freedom are values which Canadians hold dear, and ones which the Government is determined to protect.” In a 25 minute speech delivered in both English and French, Charles spoke of his “greatest admiration for Canada’s unique identity”.

In front of senior politicians, including recently elected prime minister Mark Carney and his predecessor Justin Trudeau, indigenous leaders and MPs, Charles also referenced the unity of the monarchy and Canada as its sovereignty is under threat. He said: “Today, Canada faces another critical moment. Democracy, pluralism, the rule of law, self-determination, and freedom are values which Canadians hold dear, and ones which the Government is determined to protect.”

It was aimed squarely at Russian president Vladimir Putin. Despite what he called a “very good relationship” with Putin, Trump in his latest statement on the Ukraine-Russia war blasted the Russian leader as “absolutely crazy.”

Mr Trump sudden harsh turn was illuminative, if not for the reason he may have intended, writes John Bowden:

A Palestinian official close to Hamas had said earlier it had agreed to a proposal by US special envoy Steve Witkoff for a Gaza ceasefire, which was received by Hamas through mediators.

A Hamas source told AFP that the group had “agreed to the new proposal” by the US, “which the movement received from mediators.”

But reporting by Axios, confirmed to AFP by Witkoff’s spokesman, said the US envoy disputed that the Palestinian militant group had agreed to his proposal.

Palestinian groups slam the raids targeting exchanges in several cities in a widespread operation in the territory.

Israeli forces have raided money exchanges across the occupied West Bank, using live fire and tear gas as they stormed the city of Nablus, killing at least one Palestinian and wounding more than 30.

Exchange shops in the cities of Ramallah, Nablus, Hebron Arrabeh, el-Bireh, Bethlehem, Jenin and Tubas were attacked on Tuesday, residents said.

In the northern city of Nablus, Israeli soldiers raided a foreign exchange belonging to the Al-Khaleej company and a gold store, according to local media reports. They also fired smoke bombs in the centre of Jenin, and streets were closed in Tubas and Bethlehem in the occupied Palestinian territory.

The Ramallah-based Ministry of Health said one man was killed and eight injured by live ammunition during a raid in Nablus.

The Palestine Red Crescent Society said it treated 20 people for tear gas inhalation and three injured by rubber bullets.

India moved to fast-track the development of an advanced new stealth jet on Tuesday after suffering embarrassing losses in air combat with Pakistan during the recent flare-up in tensions.

While both sides claimed victory in the brief conflict earlier this month, a massive air battle ended with Pakistan as the clear victor, downing at least three Indian jets at the cost of none of its own. This included at least one French-made Rafale jet, a plane considered one of the best in the world with a previous reputation for invulnerability. Unsatisfied with these results, New Delhi is now seeking to develop its own fifth-generation stealth fighter.

India’s state-run Aeronautical Development Agency announced it will shortly invite defense firms to develop prototypes for the new twin-engine stealth fighter.

So far, only the world’s three major powers have developed and possess fifth-generation fighters — the United States, which operates the F-22 and F-35; China, which operates the J-20; and Russia, which operates the Su-57. All have banned the export of these aircraft to safeguard their technologies.

Other countries, including Turkey, South Korea, Japan, and Sweden, have their own fifth-generation programs, but they are still in the development stage.

How China Could Counter U.S. Intervention in War Over Taiwan– warontherocks.com

Excerpt:

Has Beijing found a new “assassin’s mace” to keep the U.S. military out of a fight over Taiwan?

Ongoing debates over how China’s military would counter U.S. intervention often focus on precision strikes against U.S. forces in the Western Pacific. Indeed, some wargames assume that the People’s Liberation Army would throw the first punch. But such a move is not the only option available to China’s decision-makers. Other options include mounting a surprise invasion of Taiwan before the United States can mobilize, pressuring America’s allies to deny U.S. forces access to forward bases, or using strategic deterrence, which seeks to discourage Washington from defending Taiwan in the first place.

Of these options, pursuing strategic deterrence could prove most alluring for Beijing. The logic would be to convince the U.S. government that risks to the U.S. homeland, such as cyber attacks on power grids and telecommunications networks and even the specter of nuclear escalation, are too severe to contemplate. This strategy would leverage China’s expanding nuclear arsenal (and attendant nuclear signals), new intercontinental conventional missiles, space and cyber capabilities, and the belief that Beijing is inherently more resolved than Washington. Chinese leaders who embrace this thinking might conclude that a war could be limited, and thus, they might be more likely to opt for aggression.

Donald Trump’s speech at West Point on Saturday was bad, but the president managed to top himself and show off his decline at the sacred Arlington cemetery on Memorial Day.

Trump’s remarks lasted for less than 20 minutes, but they contained mispronounced words, and at times, the president was running his words together, making them difficult to understand.

In one section of his speech, Trump said:

 But even for a moment, that freedom is a gift of the highest cost and peace is one at the most precious price. These extraordinary American heroes in there, immense and ultimate sacrifices. They offer only the faintest glimpse at the infinite grace we have received from all who laid down their lives for America over the past 250 years.

We’re gonna have a big, big celebration, as you know, 250 years. In some ways. I’m glad I missed that second term where it was because I wouldn’t be your president for that. Most important of all, in addition, we have the World Cup and we have the Olympics. Can you imagine I missed that four years and now look what I have.

I have everything amazing the way things work out.

God did that. I believe that too.

God did it.

You know, I got the World Cup and I got the, uh, Olympics. The 250 years was not mine. I’d like to take credit, but I got the Olympics. I got the World Cup when I was president. And I said, boy, it’s too bad I won’t be president then. And look what happened. I, I turned out that we’re gonna have a great time, we’re gonna have a great celebration.

But most important of all is the 250th anniversary that blows everything away, including the World Cup and including the Olympics. As far as I’m concerned, in any corner of the cemetery, at any resting place for our war, dead, anywhere on earth, you’ll find untold stories of equal heroism and heartbreak unmatched.

Patriotism and devote.

Ivey noted he was told to travel to San Salvador to obtain a permit before he could visit Abrego Garcia. He appeared in the video alongside Abrego Garcia’s attorney and a member of CASA, the Maryland-based union he was part of.

Excerpt:

OTTAWA, Ontario — OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) — King Charles III will outline new Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government priorities in a speech in the Canadian Parliament on Tuesday. It’s widely viewed as a show of support in the face of annexation threats by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Trump’s repeated suggestion that the U.S. annex Canada prompted Prime Minister Carney to invite Charles to give the speech from the throne. The king is the head of state in Canada, which is a member of the British Commonwealth of former colonies.

Carney said in a statement the visit speaks to the “vitality of our constitutional monarchy and our distinct identity.”

It is rare for the monarch to deliver what’s called the speech from the throne in Canada. Charles’ mother, Queen Elizabeth II, did it twice in her 70-year reign, the last time in 1977.

The speech is not written by the king or his U.K. advisers as Charles serves as a nonpartisan head of state. He will read what is put before him by Canada’s government.

CNN Claims Obamacare Was Conservative, Tea Party Opposed It Because of Racism– www.newsbusters.org

Excerpt:

On Sunday morning, CNN’s Fareed Zakaria re-aired an April 6 primetime special with the not-so-subtle title of The War on Government, which purported to be a history lesson on the conservative movement’s frustration with Republican politicians’ unwillingness or inability to shrink the government going back to President Dwight Eisenhower, which has culminated in DOGE’s blunt-force bureaucratic firings. The whole show operated on the assumption that conservatives, from FDR’s critics to DOGE, are wrong and out of touch, but the part about Tea Party opposition to President Barack Obama was the worst. Zakaria tried to claim Obamacare was actually conservative and had John Hopkins Professor Leah Wright Rigueur then surmise that the opposition to it was based in racism.

Zakaria huffed, “And yet, the core idea of Obamacare, requiring people to buy mostly private health insurance, had been championed by conservatives. It was proposed by Republicans as an alternative to Bill Clinton’s healthcare plan in the 1990s, and actually implemented in Massachusetts by Republican Governor Mitt Romney in 2006. But, none of that mattered.”

A man was arrested at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York on Sunday following an alleged attempt to firebomb a branch office of the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, the Justice Department said in a statement.

The man, named Joseph Neumeyer, is a dual American and German citizen and was detained in Israel on May 19 after a hostile confrontation in which Neumeyer spit on a security guard in front of the office earlier that day, according to the Justice Department.

The guard tried and failed to detain Neumeyer, who ditched the backpack he was carrying to break free, the statement said.

A search of the backpack he left behind at the embassy after the confrontation “revealed three rudimentary improvised incendiary devices commonly known as Molotov cocktails,” the statement added. Officials were able to track Neumeyer to his hotel, where he was arrested.

On May 19, Neumeyer wrote on Facebook:

“Join me this afternoon in Tel Aviv. We are burning down the U.S. embassy.”
“Death to America. Death to Americans and f*** the West.”

Excerpt:

Jake Tapper’s co-author Alex Thompson of Axios appeared on FOX News Sunday this weekend and made some stunning claims about what Biden’s inner circle was planning to do if he secured a second term.

It’s easy to forget that prior to Biden’s horrible debate performance last spring, and even for some time after, his campaign was going full steam ahead on his reelection.

According to Thompson, if Biden won, the plan was to shuffle him out in front of the public once in a while as ‘proof of life’ while his aides actually ran the country.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

SHANNON BREAM, FOX NEWS SUNDAY: You quote a long-time Biden aide basically admitting he shouldn’t be running again. They said to you on page 85, ‘He just had to win, and then he could disappear for four years. He’d only have to show proof of life every once in a while. His aides could pick up the slack.’ Who would have been running the White House in a second Biden term

ALEX THOMPSON, CO-AUTHOR: Well, this person went on to say that when you’re voting for a president, you’re voting for the aides around him. But these aides were not even Senate-confirmed aides. These are White House aides. These were unelected people. And one of the things that really I think comes out in our reporting here is that if you believe — and I think a lot of these people do sincerely believe that Donald Trump was and is an existential threat to democracy — you can rationalize anything, including sometimes doing undemocratic things, which I think is what this person is talking about.

Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas were left stunned on Tuesday after their colleagues refused to take up a case involving a Massachusetts middle schooler who was reprimanded in school for wearing a shirt acknowledging biological reality.

As part of its newly released order list, the nation’s highest court declined to hear arguments in L.M. v. Town of Middleborough. The case involves Middleborough, Massachusetts, youth Liam Morrison, who in March 2023 wore a T-shirt that reads, “There Are Only Two Genders” to Nichols Middle School.

As The Federalist previously reported, Morrison — who was in seventh grade at the time — “was pulled from class by acting Principal Heather Tucker, who ordered Morrison to remove the shirt. After Morrison declined to do so, Tucker allegedly said he would not be permitted to return to class until he removed the shirt, prompting the seventh grader to leave school for the day.” This prompted Morrison to instead wear a shirt that reads, “There Are Censored Genders,” which school administrators also prohibited him from wearing.

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on May 15 on what has become a debilitating, critical crisis: the issuance of nationwide injunctions en masse by federal district court judges.

Notably, the overwhelming majority of those judges are Democrat appointees who seek to prevent President Donald Trump from doing what he was elected to do: govern. According to a lawsuit tracker by the Associated Press, more than 200 lawsuits have been filed against Trump’s executive orders.

In three consolidated cases from Washington, Maryland, and Massachusetts, federal district court judges issued nationwide injunctions (sometimes called universal injunctions or, to quote Justice Neil Gorsuch, “cosmic injunctions”) against the implementation of a Trump executive order ending universal birthright citizenship. The plaintiffs in those cases claim the order violates the 14th Amendment.

Those injunctions reflect a broader pattern. In less than four months, roughly 40 nationwide injunctions have been entered against the Trump administration — almost double the number entered during all four years of the Biden administration. As Solicitor General John Sauer pointed out, 35 have come “from the same five judicial districts.”

Washington — NPR on Tuesday sued President Trump and administration officials over an executive order signed earlier this month that seeks to cut federal funding to the news organization and PBS.

Filed in the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., the suit was brought by NPR and three Colorado-based public radio stations. It argues that Mr. Trump’s executive order violates the First Amendment and provisions of the Public Broadcasting Act, which was passed by Congress in 1967. The plaintiffs also assert that Mr. Trump did not have the authority to stop federal funding for NPR and PBS, and his order should be invalidated as unconstitutional.

The order, NPR and the three stations said in their complaint, is “textbook retaliation” and discriminates based on viewpoint, which is a violation of the First Amendment.

Let’s start with the Watergate comparison, which, for the sake of argument, was President Richard Nixon’s scandal being the mastermind behind a break-in at Democrat HQ (I know that you know that I know that you know). As it turns out, according to Jake Tapper, not knowing who was running the country for four years mayhaps be a bigger scandal.

This is an entirely separate scandal. Maybe even worse … maybe even worse than Watergate in some ways because Richard Nixon was in control of his faculties.
