Is this thing true? I have seen reporting. Yet if I google it (I know I know) it tells me it's all fake news.

Residential solar only "works" because people have the grid to back them up and because of scams like "net" metering cause people to earn far above market price for their "surplus" energy (and utilities are already getting rid of it). If the grid switches to renewable energy, it'll no longer be able to back you up, and you'll have no power on overcast days.
Try to price out a solar system that lets you charge two electric cars (because they want to ban gas cars) plus power household needs during a week of overcast skies in the winter. You'll need at least 10 times the amount of solar all the calculators advise because the rated power assumes direct unobstructed sunlight and because you need to charge your batteries for night time energy usage instead of being able to draw from the grid. You'll also need batteries with usable capacity greater than your total daily energy usage plus your cars' batteries. Such a system costs an insane amount of money, more than most people's houses are worth. Also, after 20 years, your solar panels will be producing far below their rated energy usage and your batteries won't hold a charge, forcing you to rebuy everything.
Additionally, in many states, buying rooftop solar is just providing capital for a distributed solar farm that feeds the grid and doesn't actually make becoming energy independent unless you bribe an electrician to illegally install a switch.

No. Ukraine wasn't investing money into FTX. It created a donation platform with FTX and was taking money out.

2018 was when they tested the "fortification" for 2020. I remember loads of Californian Congressional Districts going into overtime with all the Dems mysteriously winning after more votes were found, which caused the Republicans to lose the House.

I think the question that needs to be asked is why does it need a “donation platform“ in the first place. What about all those billions of dollars of net and safety aid that was being sent to you by the U.S government? Is that not enough for you?
Also:
This looks almost like a parody out of 2001: A Space Odyseey, but just with four powerful (or semi-powerful) people. How does Zelensky even have time do this type of stuff anyway?

Reinstating Orange Man will be to them like what slathering a Quran with bacon is to a muzzie, and it will be eminently grorious to see.

Why would Trump not want to take the opportunity to rub it in if he came back though?

Because doing so would be tantamount to admitting "his" platform failed, and in his mind taking that L wouldn't be worth the W of rubbing it in.

Some lib event having figures like this isn't that weird. It's a Who's Who of popular figures for the left. As far as why Zelensky is there it's because it's about the most useful thing he can do. He's not a general and his army is likely getting all the help it needs from other governments for advice on what they should do to succeed.
Also probably doesn't take that long to go on a Zoom call and say "hey war happening, help please". Would be as much of a hassle as Johnny Depp's appearance at the VMAs was.
Edit:
Trump can repost his Truths from Truth Social onto Twitter. Could even post links for people to click on. He'd effectively be back on twitter and still be promoting Truth Social.

If/when Trump’s account is reinstated, he should fire off a grand total of two (2) tweets:
>The first should consist solely of “covfefe lol”.
>The second should be a typical shill for Truth Social.
After this, he never tweets on the account again- that’d be the funniest outcome.

I'm going to miss Kinzinger, it's hard finding more cucked baby faces than his in politics. No tears are sweeter than from children like him

That is likely what will happen.
He has his own social media platform now and massive reach to his base. He does not need twitter.
Elon probably did not unban him yet because it would be super embarrassing for Elon if he unbanned Trump and Trump said, "nah, I am all good over here at Truth.social".

If you were born in 97, you are a Zoomer by definition; Zoomers go from being born in 1997 to 2010 according to the people who keep track of all that; I should know - I'm a Zoomer in my mid 20's, too.

Well when the US Department of Defense and the CIA is directly in charge of the Ukrainian military planning, it leaves a lot of time for Zelensky to snort cocaine in his bunker most likely in Poland or any of his offshore properties revealed in the Panama Papers like London.

Why do the do the dumb inbred rednecks vote against their own interests? Clearly the democrats are the party of the working class mountain men!

I'm just gonna guess Aspen is full of the Kalifornia Kommie Krew and this election they added a decent-sized city also full of Californians to Boebert's district.
