Full-on capitulation to Comrade Krasnov’s obsequious passion embrace of Putin. At the UN: The UN General Assembly adopted a resolution supporting lasting peace in Ukraine on 24 February, the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion, with 107 countries voting in favour and the US not among them. In total, 107 countries supported the resolution. Twelve voted against: Russia, Belarus, North Korea, Iran, Cuba, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Eritrea, Mali, Sudan, Nicaragua and Niger. Fifty-one countries abstained, including the US, China, Armenia, India, Kazakhstan and the United Arab Emirates. Ukrinform reported that the US also tried to amend the resolution, including removing points on Ukraine’s territorial integrity and the need to achieve a just peace. The General Assembly rejected the US proposals. Sixty-nine countries voted against, 11 voted in favour and 62 abstained. > **[US abstains from vote on UN resolution supporting lasting peace in Ukraine](https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2026/02/24/8022609/)** > > The UN adopted a resolution supporting peace in Ukraine, with the US and China abstaining while Russia and 11 other countries voted against. ---

I have a leftist friend who is starting to get a bit… out there. He reposted a thing by Aisha, the daughter of Mu‘ammar al-Qadhdhafi, urging Iranians to resist the West, including this gem: > History has proven that those who stood firm—from Cuba, Venezuela, and North Korea to Palestine—remain alive in the hearts of the world’s heroes and became immortal in history with honor. I commented, “Hooray for North Korea?” But my comment went ignored. PS: When I drilled down to the original post that had been shared and re-shared, I found out way down at the bottom of the comments that Aisha did not in fact write that, and somebody was falsely attributing it to her. I think we all know who is behind this internet ratfucking. PPS: So I went back and informed my friend it was phony, and commented again: “It probably sounded better in the original **Russian.** ” ---

And you just know that Pretti and Good where among those accused of violent crime. Good, a mom, just trying to slowly drive away. Pretti, a nurse, trying to help a woman that ICE threw to the ground. Both shot to death. Both I’m sure considered violent criminals. We know who the violent criminals are. ---

> [@smithsb](#): > > Graham: When this regime goes down, we’re going to make a ton of money. Republicans - once again saying the quiet part out loud. _Now_ we see why Trump was so interested in Venezuelan drug trafficers (oil). He wanted to secure an alternate source of gas to offset the effects of invading Iran. Only the plan got rushed before the gas could be put in place. Yeah, I know, a great CT foiled because Trump isn’t that strategic of a thinker. ---
