President Donald Trump sharply criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday, urging him to cease military actions in Ukraine after a deadly Russian strike on Kyiv killed at least eight people. The attack, the deadliest on Ukraine’s capital in nearly a year, threatened ongoing peace negotiations.

“Vladimir, STOP!” Trump posted on Truth Social, calling the strikes “not necessary” and poorly timed amid ceasefire efforts. He emphasized that “millions of people are being hurt” and pressed for a peace deal, warning that the U.S. could impose tariffs on nations buying Russian oil if talks falter.

The Trump administration has pushed for a swift resolution to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, with envoy Steve Witkoff set to meet Putin in Moscow this week. However, Russia’s intensified attacks, coupled with Putin’s rejection of a 30-day ceasefire, have frustrated U.S. efforts. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of using the strikes to pressure Washington.

Trump’s rebuke of Putin signals growing impatience as the war, now in its fourth year, continues to strain U.S. resources and global stability.

Super Woke Snow White remake is now THE WORST MOVIE EVER on IMDB

Disney’s live-action “Snow White” remake has become the lowest-rated Disney film on IMDb, plummeting to a 1.6/10 based on 311,000 reviews, with 91% giving it one star, Breitbart News reported.

The $270 million film, starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, faced intense backlash, including review-bombing fueled by controversies over casting, CGI dwarfs, and Zegler’s political comments. “This is a perfect case of review-bombing,” said IMDb, which flagged “unusual voting activity.” The film grossed just $143 million globally, far below its break-even point.

Critics gave mixed reviews, with Rotten Tomatoes showing a 40% critic score but a 74% audience score. Some praised Zegler’s performance, while others, like The Guardian, called it “toe-curlingly terrible.” Social media posts on X amplified the negative sentiment, with users labeling it “hilariously abysmal.”

Disney has not commented on the IMDb rating or review-bombing claims. The film’s poor reception marks a significant setback for the studio’s live-action remake strategy, raising questions about future adaptations.

“Nike screws women once again,” Liberal LGBT ICON trashes Nike for being pro-trans

Tennis legend Martina Navratilova slammed Nike for its reported role in funding transgender athlete research, calling it a betrayal of women’s rights. The criticism follows a New York Times report suggesting Nike is financing a study by Joanna Harper, a transgender woman, on trans athletes.

Navratilova, responding to a post by women’s sportswear executive Jennifer Sey on X, expressed outrage, referencing Nike’s past controversy with pregnant athlete Allyson Felix. “Nike screws women once again,” Navratilova wrote, highlighting Felix’s reduced sponsorship deal after her pregnancy. Sey’s post questioned Nike’s involvement, stating, “Why is a sneaker brand doing medical experiments on children?”

Nike declined to confirm its funding of the research when contacted Tuesday. Navratilova, a vocal advocate for fairness in women’s sports, has consistently opposed transgender inclusion in female categories, arguing it compromises equity. Her latest remarks amplify ongoing debates about transgender athletes’ participation and corporate influence in sports science.

The controversy underscores tensions between inclusivity and fairness, with Navratilova urging accountability from brands like Nike.

Joy Behar is very concerned that the new Pope might be “anti-gay and everything else”

Joy Behar, co-host of ABC’s “The View,” expressed concern Tuesday that Pope Francis, who died Monday at 88, might be succeeded by a “conservative guy” who could reverse his inclusive legacy. During a discussion on the show, Behar suggested a “backlash” against Francis’ humility and progressive stances might lead to a pope who is “anti-gay and everything else.”

Co-host Sunny Hostin hoped for a successor similar to Francis, citing his impact on her Catholic faith amid church scandals. Sara Haines noted the existence of “liberal” and “conservative” popes, praising Francis as “the most Jesus-like” for his 2013 remark: “If someone is gay, and he searched for the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge?” Whoopi Goldberg lauded Francis for understanding refugees’ needs.

Behar contrasted Francis with figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk, calling the difference “astounding.” The Vatican announced Francis’ funeral for Saturday in St. Peter’s Square, with Trump and First Lady Melania attending. Cardinals have begun the ritual to elect the next pope.
