President Stubb about the amount of Ukrainian territory Russia wants:

The best way to explain its that if you take the relative land mass of what Russia wants right now from 🇺🇦,it would be a little bit like you giving up Florida,Georgia,S.Carolina,N.Carolina,even Virginia,then bumping into Maryland

Hegseth halted weapons for Ukraine despite military analysis that the aid wouldn’t jeopardize U.S. readiness The move blindsided the State Department, Ukraine, European allies and members of Congress, who demanded an explanation from the Pentagon.

Nice work to all the Senators who claim to be pro-Ukraine to confirm a Secretary of Defense with a long track record of making anti-Ukraine statements. What could go wrong? Plenty more in addition to what already has. www.nbcnews.com/news/militar...

Wonder how voters interpreted “most consequential” ?

Massive Russian attack on Odesa last night.

Two people killed. Fifteen more people injured.

Residential buildings, private homes, a supermarket, a school and vehicles damaged.

Russian terror on Ukrainian civilians continues.

You have to see this.

PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

🤦🏻‍♀️

And then take more.

There are significant mass protests in Hungary, Serbia and Georgia against pro-Russian regimes.

There is no equivalent expression of direct democracy in the United States against that country’s pro-Russian regime. Americans are 249 years removed from the Spirit of ‘76.

I wish they did.

Economic partnership will protect the Ukrainian people and the US taxpayer Trump’s bold international leadership aligns interests and benefits all

Trump's obedient Treasury servant Scott Bessent has published an op ed in FT, calling for US seizure of Ukrainian mineral assets without offering Ukraine anything whatsoever.
These ruthless predators have no shame & no morals.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

🤬

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

The aftermath of the Russian missile attack on Kyiv this morning.

One person killed, four more injured, including a child.

Today, I was crossing a busy intersection. Just ahead of me was a couple with two young kids. An oncoming man sarcastically snapped at them, ‘Where are you from? Mexico!’

This isn’t the Canada we stand for. We’re better than this. Let’s do better.🇨🇦

Canada didn't stand alone in our fight with Donald Trump.
Our allies in the Klingon Empire had our backs.
They are ready to fight the anti-democratic fascist crew ransacking Washington.
They say they are most interested in getting their hands on the bro-fascist "starlink" creep.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

No official announcements yet on the fate of the US Agency for International Development, but we've heard from colleagues that had 15 mins notice before being locked out of buildings and systems. USAID works in 120 counties to extend humanitarian aid. Overnight, it has been reduced to rubble.

Not a single one held. Russia violated every single agreement, often by shelling Ukrainian civilians in the occupied Donbas and then turning around to blame Ukraine for the violence.
