The dimwitted, uneducated bully opened his ill-advised economic bullying tariffs on allies (25%) and enemies (10%) ... Canada and Mexico promptly retaliated. Pootin must have been delighted. When markets closed on 25-4-3, DUHmented notified an alarmed world of truly idiotic "Liberation Day" tariffs on most countries (except Ruscia). The best interpretation of the typically stupid naming is "liberation from your money". Tuvalu? Turks and Caicos? The orange blob should be in an orange jumpsuit.

25-2-20 Could [Pooti's Moronic Puppet] Force Elections on Ukraine? - TLDR > .

Ukrainian law does not allow presidential elections to be held when martial law is in effect. Martial law has been extended in 90-day intervals since the full-scale invasion with parliament's approval, and has most recently (as of February 2025) been extended for the 14th time until 9 May 2025. Incumbent President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has not confirmed if he will seek reelection. When asked in a January 2025 interview, he said that seeking a second term was not his current goal or focus, but his decision would depend on the outcome of the war.
