The life of a boomer:
• Graduated when a degree guaranteed a job
• College tuition cost less than your current phone bill
• Worked one job for 40 years and got a gold watch AND a pension
• Bought a house at 23 on a single income with no credit score stress
• Wife stayed home, kids had a parent present, and they still came out ahead financially
• Monthly mortgage was literally cheaper than a tank of gas today
• Retirement funded by the greatest bull run in human history — that they did nothing to create
• Sold the same house for 47x what they paid
• Collected social security for 25 years while quietly voting against it for their grandkids
• Still giving investment advice like it’s 1987
• “Just save more” from someone who bought a 4-bedroom on a factory salary
• Raised a generation on guilt and anxiety and called it parenting
• Their biggest financial mistake was choosing the wrong paint color
• Tell you to stop buying coffee while sitting on $800k in home equity they didn’t earn
• Wonder why their kids can’t afford kids
Ukraine’s UGVs already haul food and ammo to the line. They already mine and demine.
The next step is ground robots with combat modules for direct fire support.

Europe will build its own anti–ballistic capabilities – this is an urgent issue. Ukraine is not giving up, so we will definitely see this through. This is our initiative, which we’re carrying out together with partners. Putin wants to see everything in our country go up in flames, and he’s a madman – our partners can sense that. Ukraine is ready for negotiations with him despite all this.
But Europe must throw its full weight behind this effort so that we have a strong position. It must throw its full weight behind sanctions – with no exceptions. Behind confiscation – with no exceptions. And behind funding Ukraine.

There is no army without funding. And when we talk about Europe’s security, we are talking about its foundation – the Ukrainian army.
Our army has real experience of modern warfare and has been able to hold back a force as large as Russian aggression.
We need to provide long-term security guarantees for Europe, and that means long-term financial guarantees for the Ukrainian army.
Maintaining the army, providing the equipment it needs, paying soldiers, and funding military contracts – all of this is necessary. The Coalition of the Willing, and the European Union as part of it, and your countries as members of it, can develop the financial instruments needed to make this possible.

Now 52% of young adults live with their parents, the highest rate ever, surpassing even the Great Depression. The most-educated and most in debt generation in history did everything they were supposed to and got this.
The system. Does. Not. Work
They keep saying just move to a cheaper city.
Cheaper cities have fewer jobs.
Fewer jobs mean lower wages.
Lower wages cancel out the lower cost of living.
It’s not a loophole.
It’s the same math wearing a different zip code.
During an audience with His Majesty King Philippe of the Belgians, I spoke about the consequences of Russian attacks against Ukraine, including the damage to the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra. We discussed the need to strengthen sanctions pressure on Russia, the situation on the frontline, and diplomatic work with partners.
We also spoke about Ukraine’s European integration and the development of defense cooperation. I thank Belgium for its solidarity with our people and its continued support.

🔥🇩🇪 Germany wants to purchase 🇺🇦 Ukrainian Flamingo and Bars missiles instead of 🇺🇸 American Tomahawks, — Politico
After the US refused to deploy Tomahawks in Germany, Berlin began looking at Ukrainian and Israeli long-range missiles.
Among the contenders are the American Typhon system, the Israeli-American Anthem, the Ukrainian Flamingo, and joint missile projects with Great Britain.
The Ukrainian Flamingo has become one of the main favorites: flight range up to 3,000 km, warhead about a ton, and cost only about 500,000 dollars, which is almost five times cheaper than a Tomahawk.
⚡️ One of the leading German defense companies, Diehl Defence, is already negotiating joint production of Ukrainian Flamingo missiles on German territory.
During our meeting with Prime Minister of Greece Kyriakos Mitsotakis @kmitsotakis, I briefed him in detail on the frontline situation and the consequences of Russian attacks against Ukraine. I spoke about the G7 Summit meetings, agreements, and diplomatic efforts to bring peace closer. We paid special attention to Ukraine’s EU accession. After the opening of the first negotiating cluster, opening the remaining five clusters as soon as possible is a priority.
I am grateful to Greece for all the military assistance already provided and for its contribution to the PURL program. One of the most important tasks is to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense and expand our anti-ballistic capabilities.

One thing I love is how basically every study says that students do better in school with less homework and later start times and workers do better with more vacation days and shorter shifts, but we do the exact opposite in this country because Puritanical feelings apparently beat facts.
She borrowed $49,548.74 in student loans.
120 payments later, she’s paid $25,558 — and now owes $50,121.
She’s paid on it for years and still owes more than what she originally borrowed.
The entire thing is a SCAM to enslave the young people.

After paying for years… she owes MORE than she originally borrowed.
This isn’t aid — it’s a SCAM.
We all see that Putin is now relying on one last thing: constant missile attacks. He has ballistic missiles. So we need anti-ballistic capabilities.
We’ve done a lot to defend against drones, and our interception rate is above 90 percent. That is a serious achievement. We are also defending against cruise missiles. But Russian ballistic missiles remain a problem, and we need an answer to that problem.
Our anti-ballistic coalition – all the countries that are part of it – must demonstrate full capability and deliver real results – better this year.
By this winter, we should already see concrete outcomes from our joint work on anti-ballistic defense.

Today marks the first visit by a President of Honduras to Ukraine since we regained our independence. It is very important that Ukraine’s partners come here and see with their own eyes what Ukrainians are going through. That is why we are grateful for this visit at this particular moment.
We discussed with Nasry Asfura the key directions for the development of our bilateral relations: trade, the agricultural sector, the economy, and digitalization. Honduras is interested in this, and we are ready to help here. Security was also discussed. Today, in military technologies, particularly drones, Ukraine is among the strongest in the world. We are ready to help those who help us.
I thank the President and his team for supporting us on all key geopolitical platforms. On the one hand, Ukraine must defend itself, and we need air defenses to protect the lives of our people. On the other hand, we need the same level of protection for our geopolitical interests so that this Russian war ultimately ends with a reliable peace. Thank you!
