🇬🇪 “Georgia has one of the highest amount of NGOs per capita!
- 20,000 NGOs are active in Georgia!
- 1 #NGO per 148 citizens!
- 90% get their funding from foreign countries!”
-> He is not pro Russia, he is pro #Georgia and the protesters are #pro-money!

Spoke to @CounselorDOS and expressed my sincere disappointment with the two revolution attempts of 2020-2023 supported by the former US Ambassador and those carried out through NGOs financed from external sources. Had these attempts been successful, the second front line would have been opened in Georgia.

Russians stuffing ballot boxes.
Ukrainian drones attacked Russian strategic bomber airbases near #Saratov.

Pilot cargo transportation has been initiated along the India-Iran-Armenia trade route, as announced by Armenia’s Deputy Minister of #Economy, Narek Teryan, during the Armenian-India business forum. However, there is still ongoing work needed to establish a stable transport corridor, he emphasized without disclosing further details at this stage.

#Armenia anticipates that the launch of this trade route will rapidly boost trade and cargo transportation between Armenia, #India, and #Iran, and subsequently with #Georgia and the #EU, in both directions.

I was just scrolling yesterday through my stared posts in looking for something and I found this - which just seems way too relevant today in light of the #TuckerCarlson interview with #Putin.

Always remember what #peace means for #Russia whenever that #Kremlin idiot says it wants #negotiations. Always remember what #concessions by #Ukraine in exchange for #peace actually means for #TerroRussia. The only #peace which is acceptable for #Putler is the one where Ukraine gives up all its territory. Then #Moscow can start its #ethniccleaning and the erasure of #Ukrainian identity, just like it did with all the people in its empire. And when that happens, other countries are endangered of following suite - #Moldova, #Georgia, #TheBaltics, even #Poland and #Romania.

At this point, you could comfortably say that Russia is the last classical style #colonialempire of Europe. The only way to #EndTheWarInUkraine is to #defeatrussia.

To those who thinks that #Ukraine should negotiate peace with #Russia, then Medvedev has just removed any reason to do so:https://twitter.com/MedvedevRussiaE/status/1691545649299304448

The Houston County Sheriff’s Office reports that Benjamin Reese, a teacher at Warner Robins Middle School in Georgia, threatened to behead a pupil when she questioned why there was an Israeli flag in class.

This is turning into a whole new level of intolerance and bigotry.

This is specially troubling because the man is a teacher threatening a middle school student. WTAF

A county spent $1.2 million in #legal fees to avoid paying $10K for #trans-inclusive #health care - #LGBTQ Nation

And they still lost and have to pay for the health care now.
By John Russell Tuesday, March 21, 2023

A county in #Georgia spent nearly $1.2 million in a years-long legal battle to deny a local sheriff’s deputy a #healthcare plan that would cover #gender-affirming care, citing the cost of the plan. But by one estimate, the change to the county’s health insurance would have cost a fraction of what it paid a private law firm.

That’s why a new #discovery reported in the latest #Science is so important. A team of investigators has uncovered the exquisitely preserved skull of a hominid dating back some 1.8 million years at a site called #Dimanisi, in the #Republic of #Georgia, in #Central-Asia. And that #artifact raises doubts about the generally accepted idea that several #human species populated the #Earth at that time.

“We have one #global human species today,” said Christoph Zollikofer, of the #Anthropological Institute and #Museum in #Zurich, #Switzerland, a co-author of the Science report, at a press conference.

“And what we can infer from our study is that 1.8 million years ago there was another [single] global human species.”
