Russian soldiers surrendered en masse to Wagner PMC in Voronezh.
Wagner now controls both Rostov (population 1.1 million) and Voronezh (also population 1.1 million). Wagner is now approaching Krasnodar (1 million) and Volgograd (950k) without any resistance.
The Wagner forces are now in Rostov-on-Don near the Ukrainian border. Been fascinating the last hour watching the road closures pop up in real time on Google Maps between there and Moscow 800 miles north.

We all came together and proved that we can do big things again in Pennsylvania.
We showed the world that when times get hard, Pennsylvanians show up for one another.
We work together — and we get shit done.

Through deep art programming skills, I managed to break Wired when I filled in a message for a gift card:

Paul Singer spent a cool $500,000 in SuperPAC money against me in my 2016 Congressional race.
I joined Ted Lieu and others in suing, arguing that Singer's single candidate SuperPAC was a clear corruption problem even after Citizens United.
Denied cert by... the Supreme Court.

Singer’s hedge fund came before SCOTUS at least 10 times in cases where his role was often covered by the mainstream media.
In 2014, the court agreed to resolve a key issue in a battle between his hedge fund and Argentina. Alito did not recuse himself. propublica.org/article/samuel

Clever caption.

Trump isn't being arraigned because he's a victim of harassment, witch hunts, political smear jobs & FBI conspiracies.
It's because he stole classified docs, lied about it, and is facing the consequences of his criminal actions.

A s"little" addition to a European #Internet regulation would end #NetNeutrality by allowing the access providers to charge some web sites for the "privilege" of being accessible. This is being snuck in. #NOPE

URGENT #netneutrality news: Europe’s biggest telecoms are trying to trick the EU Parliament into endorsing their proposal to force websites to pay them without proper evaluation & debate. MEPs shouldn’t let them.
The vote is TOMORROW.
