Summary

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un praised Vladimir Putin as his “dearest friend” in a New Year letter, highlighting strengthened ties between Pyongyang and Moscow since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Kim expressed readiness for new joint projects and wished for Russia’s victory over “neo-Nazism” in 2025, a veiled reference to the Ukraine war.

Reports indicate North Korea has sent troops to assist Russia, with heavy casualties reported.

Relations between the two nations have deepened politically and militarily, solidified by a 2024 defense pact ensuring mutual military aid in case of attack.

    Damn. Poor Trump. First he had to deal with a rift with his new (former) bestie Musk when everyone started saying Elon was the real power behind the throne. And now his two original besties have iced him out.

          Any of them getting blue shelled near the finish line would result in at least 5 execution orders. (Biden commuted the sentences of all but 3 federal death row inmates but you know Trump would kill Eric for fun and is indifferent about Tiffany’s life.)

      Fuck, the last thing we need to worry about is a more unhinged and depressed Trump.
