In the aftermath of turmoil, great literature emerges slowly, while poetry captures the immediacy of raw emotion. The war in Ukraine, though still fresh, finds expression in verses that resonate deeply, reflected in works like "Poetry of the Last Times." 

Amidst the chaos, voices rise, shared through social media, revealing a reality too sharp for prose. Time alone will determine which literary figures will arise from these ashes.

Meanwhile, in a different realm, the "far right" faces criticism as top Secret Service officials disregarded security requests for Trump, citing resource shortages after a failed assassination attempt. 

Initially denying mistakes, the service now reveals its tangled priorities, exposing vulnerabilities in protection. This unfolding dilemma intertwines the personal and the political, raising questions about safety and accountability.
