He doesnโt condemn the murders. He doesnโt hold them accountable. Instead, he pressures the victims.
Thatโs what weโre witnessing.
Thatโs not law enforcement. Thatโs a dirty cop, Donald.
When murderers and terrorists break into your home, everyone understands the only way to stop the killing is for the terrorists to leave.
Instead, imagine a cop showing up โ not to protect the victims or force the terrorists out โ but to negotiate with them about future business deals. (1\2)
Sometimes talking to people from Western countries feels like a dark joke.
Two former classmates meet.
โHow are you?โ one asks.

โWell, you should really make yourself eat,โ comes the answer.
After the latest โpeaceโ talks in the UAE, Ukraine received rolling blackouts, destroyed power plants, and winter without heat.
Apparently, this is what diplomacy looks like now.
! Russia is carrying out sustained strikes against Ukraineโs energy infrastructure, with Kyiv and Kharkiv among the primary targets. The attacks have continued for more than four hours, involving drones and multiple types of missiles. Temperatures are between โ20 and โ25 Celsius (โ4 to โ13ยฐF)

The EU says unrestricted movement previously allowed Russian diplomats to conduct espionage and spread disinformation about Russiaโs war in Ukraine

Trump administration policies, which are strongly similar to Russian domestic policy, helped create the circumstances leading to this tragedy.
A brutal reminder that Russians are terrorists. Today, in Ukraineโs Kharkiv region, 2 humanitarian volunteers were deliberately killed by a Russian FPV drone strike. The volunteers,aged 35 and 63,were delivering bread to elderly residents who remain in the village of Kozacha Lopan.A clear war crime.

This feels very Russian, doesnโt it?
Russians are pure evil that looks like humans.

Russian strikes have hit Kharkivโs energy infrastructure. The city has gone dark โ once again. The scale of the damage is still unknown.
According to Donald Trumpโs version of events, however, this is not Russiaโs fault.
It is Zelenskyโs โ for refusing to make peace.
Madness...
It looks like the Pentagon/Trump may start carrying out strikes on Iranian military locations today or tomorrow, as I see it.

Trumpโs pre-meeting checklist: call Putin. Check. Very productive.
Thank you, Olga!

Ukrainian carols. They are sung on Christmas Day or in the days surrounding Christmas, often with carolers going from house to house, greeting the hosts, wishing them health, happiness, and prosperity, and receiving treats in return. Performed by the Homin Choir of the Lviv Organ Hall.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support Ukraine.
Your solidarity truly matters.
Ukrainian carol โShchedrykโwas performed in the turbine hall of a thermal power plant destroyed by russian attacks.
โShchedrykโwas written by composer Mykola Leontovych. In the 1920s,it was performed by Ukrainian choirs in the USA before gaining international recognition as the โCarol of the Bellsโ
I recorded this footage in Ukraine, Lviv, in February 2022, one week before the start of Russia's large-scale military aggression.
