Blumenthal: Russia sanctions bill may pass House
x/donald-john-trump
— 5d
U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal says a sweeping Russia sanctions bill, described as a “sledgehammer,” could pass the House in September with strong bipartisan support and exemptions to shield European allies. The legislation would target Russian officials, oligarchs, financial institutions, and the “shadow fleet,” authorize tariffs on top buyers of Russia’s oil and gas, and he urged Zelensky to lobby House members for passage.

Hololive VTuber Cecilia Immergreen Posts Short Poem Complaining About Being Stuck at Airport
Cecilia Immergreen (@ceciliaimgreen), a Hololive English VTuber (Ancient Automaton of -Justice-), posted a brief humorous poem: “Traveling is evil / Traveling is pain / I am stuck at an airport / Once again / Thank you for reading my poem.” She followed up noting she was watching a cute anime while delayed. It is drawing engagement (roughly 880–900 likes, ~90 reposts, 50+ replies, ~9k views shortly after posting) primarily within the Hololive/VTuber community because the complaint is highly relatable and her fans treat her light-hearted “poems” and travel misfortunes as running gags.
