Veterans for Peace demand that ICE immediately provide necessary medical care to Zahid Chaudhry, a decorated US Army veteran who is disabled and wheelchair-bound. This former soldier has been denied access to critical treatment while in ICE custody. Zahid was abducted by ICE several weeks ago during a routine immigration interview. Since then, he has been held at a privately run concentration camp, despite being a low-risk detainee. He has now gone more than six weeks without access to essential treatment for exophthalmos, a severe condition caused by his hyperthyroidism. Zahid was receiving scheduled infusions of Tepezza every three weeks; treatment that must be administered in a medical facility with constant monitoring of his vital signs. read more

Copenhagen Airport halted operations on Monday after multiple drones were spotted in the area. The drones came from several different directions, turning their lights on and off, before disappearing after several hours. Around 35 flights were diverted from the airport. A drone incident was reported on the same evening at Oslo Airport in Norway, forcing all traffic to move to one runway. Danish PM Mette Frederiksen noted the incident was "the most serious attack" on Denmark's critical infrastructure so far and was aligned with "other drone incidents, airspace violations, and hacking attacks on European airports." Security concerns in northern Europe have been heightened over a recent spate of Russian sabotage activities, as well as multiple drones and fighter jet incursions into NATO airspace. Separately in Oslo, an explosion went off near the Israeli Embassy. No one was injured and an undetonated hand grenade was recovered in the area. A 13-year-old suspect was arrested. read more

Most certainly China's Ministry of State Security (MSS) codeword for Dummkopf Trumpf is 'Chengse Eizhen' or 'Orange Earthquake': www.japantimes.co.jp

Those of you haven't *Killfiled* the trolls on drudge.com can corroborate that with the Wu Maos on our august platform.

Dummkopf Trumpf continues to buy time for Vladimir Putin. His announcements are all kabuki theater. When/if Russia invades the Baltics, is there anyone on the planet that thinks Trumpf is going to intervene with US forces? The US won't be participating in NATO drills starting in 2026: kyivindependent.com

If Cold War anti-Russian GOP hawks in both houses of congress didn't push for arming Ukraine in appropriations bills, Dummkopf Trumpf would have stopped all funding to Ukraine, but the GOP is not as homogenized as Trumpf would like. One AI overview:

"In April 2025, a Pew Research survey found that 40% of Republicans view Russia as an enemy, down from 58% the previous year, indicating a shift in opinion but not a clear count of anti-Russian. In the 119th Congress (2025"2026), 41 Republican senators co-sponsored the "Sanctioning Russia Act of 2025," signaling strong anti-Russian sentiment among these members."
