Russian soldiers are exactly that – Trump Jr. realizes he has embarrassed himself – Russian losses

Russian soldiers behave worse than pigs

“Abhorrent acts” — Russian forces have committed widespread sexual violence in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion, reports the UN
Russian forces are responsible for the majority of all sexual violence in Ukraine since the start of the full-scale war, announced the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in a report on September 18.
“I am deeply concerned about the spread of these abhorrent acts documented in our report, and fear that they almost certainly continue amid the relentless violence we witness every day in Ukraine.”

According to the report, 89% of the 1,004 verified cases of conflict-related sexual violence between February 2022 and July 2026 against civilians and prisoners of war (POWs) were attributed to Russian forces. 11% of the total verified cases were attributed to Ukrainian forces, with threats of sexual violence constituting almost half of these violations.

“Sexual violence is a serious feature of the full-scale armed attack on Ukraine. It must stop immediately, regardless of the perpetrators,” said Turk in a press release. “Given the high incidence of cases attributed to its forces, however, the Russian Federation in particular must take concrete and clear measures to protect civilians and prisoners of war from all forms of torture, including sexual violence.”

Unfortunately, there is little we can do about this other than to rejoice in the loss report.

Trump Jr, the apple that fell right under the apple tree

US President Donald Trump claimed yesterday that his son, Donald Trump Jr., told him he would repay the Russian businessman Umar Kremlev after he financed his wedding with hundreds of thousands of dollars.
“When I heard the story, I asked him, and he said: ‘I’m paying him back, dad,’ and that was a while ago,” Trump told reporters. “With all that said, I understand that Don has paid him back.” The money reportedly went, among other things, to renting a private island where guests stayed and a reception was held, as well as fireworks. At first they denied it, then admitted it and said that Kremlev was a close friend who hosted two party nights and dismissed any political motive. Now that their hands are practically stuck together after digging into Kremlev’s jam jar, they claim they will return the jam and hope that everything will be forgotten and forgiven. He has a father who is thoroughly corrupt, so Jr. thinking that even he, despite not being president, could get away with anything is perhaps not so surprising.

I would have preferred to write about the burning ozone layer and exploding refineries, waited a long time for some uplifting news but what can you do?
