WASHINGTON (AP) — In a symbolic show of support for Ukraine's fledgling government, President Barack Obama is meeting with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in the Oval Office on Thursday after the leader of the former Soviet republic speaks to a rare joint session of Congress. The U.S. and Western allies have condemned Russia's provocations, levying a series of economic sanctions and restricting President Vladimir Putin's involvement in some international organizations. On Wednesday, shelling in rebel-held parts of the east killed at least 12 civilians, as a top leader of pro-Russian rebels rejected Ukrainian legislation meant to end the unrest by granting self-rule to large swaths of the east.

Crooks and Liars, Sunday - 04/28/2024 - 06:36 PM
Trump lickspittle Sen. Lindsey Graham blew off any concerns that The National Enquirer's David Pecker paid for catch-and-kill stories in order to help Trump's presidential campaign.

Crooks and Liars, Sunday - 04/28/2024 - 06:36 PM
Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley refused to pull over for speeding and went home and called the police chief to quash the incident instead. That's a no-no. Unfortunately for her (or fortunately for the rule of law), the entire incident was recorded on the officer's bodycam and now DA Doorley has to explain why she has such reckless disregard for the law, police officers, and common sense. And although a Republican now (of course), Doorley has been a Democrat in the past.
