Allowing the US to control Ukrainian drone manufacturing is akin to the Nazi's controlling Russia's T34 production.

You don't let foreign interests control your means of weapons manufacturing.

Something we've all learned recently as we separate from US weapons interests.

Keep these two idiot far far away from Ukrainian technologies. It can't be overstated enough.

DO NOT sell your military assets to US companies.

That is the most depressing thing I have heard all day.
All technology will GO STRAIGHT TO ruSSia

HUGE MISTAKE !!!

What’s in it for Ukraine exactly ?

The bombing of Iranian children is an unforgivable crime America has blood on its hands.

"American disinterest in the lives of people abroad is a resource politicians use to justify cynical wars. It's hard to see on what moral grounds we claim a right to decide the fate of those about whom we clearly care so little."

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

My name is Marisa Kabas, and I'm an independent journalist who publishes The Handbasket. I'm reaching out about a matter that involves your team and that continues to trouble me. In June of last year, Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and I filed a FOIA lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan Police Department to compel them to release body camera footage from the March 17, 2025 DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace. What followed was months of back and forth with their lawyers, arguing why it was in the public interest to release the un-redacted footage in its entirety. Though tiny segments were handed over, that wasn't enough: We wanted all of it.  On February 18, 2026, a DC judge ruled in our favor, and your reporter Mark Segraves sent a kind note of congratulations that day. Then on Monday, March 2nd, the footage was handed over to me and excitedly announced I'd received it and would be reviewing it in the coming days and sharing what I learned. When Segraves emailed me this past Thursday asking for my phone number, I didn't think much of it. But when he called me just before 2pm on Friday to let me know NBC4 Washington would be airing a segment at 5pm, I grew concerned.  Segraves said he'd obtained some of the footage via a FOIA request that week after he heard the footage had been released to me. He said he'd credit the work of RCFP and me, but it was little comfort. I asked if he'd known the day before when he emailed me for my number, why didn't he tell me then? He didn't have a good answer for that. He acknowledged all the hard work I'd done getting this footage released. I asked him if he could hold the story until Monday, to which he replied that he's "not just a blogger" (implying that that's all I am, presumably) and that he'd have to check with his editor. I said fine. Nearly an hour later he called back to say his editor refused to hold the story, but that they were happy to interview me via Zoom to add to the package, and I said I would.

What followed was two hours of furiously writing and posting clips of the footage to Youtube so I could get something published before the 5pm broadcast, and in the midst of that, recording a quick Zoom interview with a person who was about to take credit for my work. At 4:59pm ET, The Handbasket published a piece titled "Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid." Then I tuned into NBC4 Washington via your website to catch the broadcast, and my instinct to rush to get something out first was proven right.  "It's a story you're seeing first on News4," your newscast began. "For the first time we're getting an inside look at what happened the day the Trump administration took over the US Institute of Peace. News4 obtained more than four hours of police body camera video from that day." What followed was more than six minutes of clips and commentary from Segraves, but it's not until six minutes and 21 seconds into the piece that he mentions my name (mispronounced though he asked for the correct pronunciation on Zoom), "The Handbasket blog," and the RCFP's foundational role in bringing this footage to light. I was angry, but didn't feel there was much I could do. Then I saw the version NBC4 posted to Instagram and TikTok—the video itself made ZERO mention of the RCFP or my work, only briefly acknowledging it in the written caption on Instagram, and not even bothering to do that on TikTok. An average viewer with no background on the case is lead to believe that this footage was released because of your efforts. When I saw that, I decided I couldn't let this go. It's difficult to explain what it's like to spend nearly a year working on a story only to have another reporter and outlet surreptitiously take credit for it; months of work and personal risk only to have another reporter lying in wait to swoop in. What NBC4 did was immoral, unethical, and to be frank, just truly sucked.

I just sent this email to the news director at NBC4 Washington about the unprofessional and disrespectful way they handled publishing the body camera footage of the DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace that was obtained via my FOIA lawsuit:

Winston Churchill quite literally asked the Americans to overthrow the very popular socialist Iranian government in 1953 because Churchill wanted the UK to keep extracting Iran’s oil wealth without paying for it.

Please do be a bit more historically aware.

Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Greenland, Canada, and on and on and on. Lindsey Graham says they are “marching through the world.”
They don’t care how many US soldiers they get killed. Meanwhile, they’re building concentration camps at home for Americans to die in. What will it take for people to wake up?

STOP TRUMP'S WARS

Anthony Blinken says Israel tried to pressure Obama to bomb Iran, warning they’d do it with or without the U.S. Obama refused. Trump caved to the same tactic. Also worth noting: Obama’s name doesn’t appear in the Epstein tapes.

But the pedophile coward sure can kill a lot of people.

INCLUDING AMERICANS—6 AMERICAN SOLDIERS DEAD AND MORE TO COME.

TRUMP and THE MAGA REPUBLICAN CONGRESS DO NOT GIVE A DAMN.

$1 BILLION DOLLARS A DAY FOR TRUMP'S INSANE, UNCALLED FOR, UNJUSTIFIED WAR AND A PROBLEM HE CREATED DURING TRUMP 1.0.

The way the USA is attacking Iran, you'd think they have the hard copies of the Epstein files!

Rubio on “Meet the Press” said if he were in Havana’s government, he’d be concerned. That’s not diplomacy. That’s a threat. From the United States to a sovereign nation. Not only is that a violation of our own Constitution, it’s a violation of international law.

No matter how independent someone is, it means the world when someone shows up for them - whether it's a family member, friend, or partner. Even the strong ones need support sometimes.

#HealingHearts

You get to a certain point in recovery from abuse (good place) & are often praised for your strength. I don't deny it took strength to be where I am today.

But some days I can't see it & feel quite stuck. I know it will pass but it's hard.
