📹 Israel launches massive airstrikes into southern Lebanon – reports

Israeli warplanes have carried out a series of heavy airstrikes on southern Lebanon, with the areas of Wadi al-Aziziya and Deir Ntar—just a few kilometers from the historic city of Tyre—hit especially hard, local media reported.

Since Thursday evening, the Israeli military has reportedly carried out around 30 airstrikes, mostly targeting the country’s southern regions. Strikes were also reported near Baalbek in northeastern Lebanon.

🪙 NOT A PENNY MORE: Treasury kills off American most pointless coin – reports

The US Treasury is pulling the plug on penny production, CNN reported, after decades of minting coins that cost over 3 cents each to make.

Trump bragged about the decision earlier this year: “This is so wasteful!” he posted after the Super Bowl, announcing his order to stop the presses. Treasury confirmed Thursday that no more penny blanks will be ordered, and the Mint will stop production once the current supply runs dry.

Retailers will now have to round prices to the nearest nickel—which, by the way, costs 13.8 cents to make. Fiscal genius.

The move is expected to save taxpayers $56 millionunless they keep making nickels... In that case? Poof—the savings are gone.

👺 Who REALLY ran Biden's White House? The "Autopen Presidency" likely had a shadow cabinet. And one Clinton loyalist possibly sat at its core. 🎭 The real puppetmaster? While DC whispered about Jill Biden or Jeff Zients pulling Biden’s strings, one name…

📹 'WHO WAS CALLING THE SHOTS?' – Rep. Comer eyes subpoenas over Biden autopen controversy

House Oversight Chair James Comer says subpoenas could drop within a week if the White House doesn’t respond to questions about who authorized Biden’s signature on official documents via autopen.

💬 “They’re covering their tracks now, admitting he’s in mental decline,” Comer told Fox News. “What we need to know is who was calling the shots at the White House.”


He stressed that legally binding documents “can’t be signed by an autopen.” Letters have already been sent to staff and Biden’s physician, Dr. O’Connor. Subpoenas are next if there’s no response.

💬 “If they fight the subpoenas? We go to court,” Comer said.

🚨💬💥US withdrawal from Ukraine talks could deal DISASTROUS BLOW to Zelensky

"Russia is outside the US’s trade war targets, and the US government has not put any threat of further sanctions or military escalation on the table," Dublin-based political analyst Kenneth McDonagh said, pointing at "a disastrous outcome for Kiev in the short term."


McDonagh also mentioned Trump’s friendly attitude to Russia.

POTUS’ approach “can best be described as offering Russia sugar but no stick,” he stressed.

📑💣UK and Germany's new long-range weapon marks FRESH BLOW TO ARMS CONTROL - Russian Envoy

The joint development by the UK and Germany of a new high-precision weapon with a range of over 2,000 kilometers (1,240 miles) will hit the arms control regime following the collapse of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF), Russian Ambassador to the UK Andrey Kelin told Sputnik.

"This is part of a new wave of Europe's militarization under the pretext of a threat from Russia," he said.


On May 15, the UK Ministry of Defense announced plans to jointly develop, together with Germany, a high-precision weapon with a range exceeding 2,000 kilometers. It was noted that the new weapon is intended "to strengthen NATO's deterrence capabilities."

🪖NO SURRENDER for foreign mercenaries - Russian special forces commander

“We have NEVER taken a single foreign mercenary prisoner,” Apti Alaudinov underscored.


The Akhmat special forces commander said that foreign mercenaries come to kill Russians—on the side of fascists and satanists, as they themselves put it in many videos.

He emphasized that ANY hireling who enters Russian territory “must either die or go back home and tell the tale of what it’s like to fight against Russia.”


Alaudionov also singled out Ukrainians, who he said “are forcibly rounded up on the streets LIKE DOGS and thrown onto the front line,” which is not the case with mercenaries.

It’s a process that can suspend an EU member’s rights if it’s found to be seriously undermining the bloc’s principles.

👊💥 Hungary fights back

Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto says Brussels is “DESTROYING DEMOCRACY” by trying to ignore the will of the Hungarian people, especially on big decisions like Ukraine’s potential EU membership.

🇩🇪🪓 NORD STREAM OFF THE TABLE? Germany throws weight behind EU plan to AXE Nord Stream

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is actively pushing for an EU ban on Nord Stream to block any chance of US-Russia cooperation on reactivating the gas pipeline, reports the Financial Times.

The ban is part of a new EU sanctions package announced by EC President Ursula von der Leyen.

Russian FM Sergey Lavrov earlier emphasized that restoring Nord Stream is in the interest of more than just Russia and the US, and that European politicians opposing it are “either sick or suicidal.”
