Day 130. #GeorgiaProtests

JUST IN: A Russian strike has hit a residential building in Kharkiv again. Children are among the injured. Russia is a terrorist state!

Ohh "America First" was a hit list

Close your eyes and take in tomorrows headlines: "Russia defeated in Ukraine, Kremlin-regime collapses, Putin has disappeared". This could easily become reality if we only want it. Russia is fighting a war against us, we are not even defending ourselves.

Revenge of the Turds.

Russian attack on Dnipro tonight. Don't look away, and don't let russia lie to you that they want peace. People who want peace don't attack civilian cities fool of people like this!

This, from Timothy Snyder, is definitive, on Greenland open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

Yes, Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz violated all sorts of national security protocols by sharing military secrets with a journalist. But at least they were White when they did this. by Charlie Kirk

Here is some good news. With thanks to everyone who contributed to our United24 campaign for demining Ukrainian land. You made this happen.

Apparently a lot of people are just finding out, but yeah, there’s a state-organized mass kidnapping campaign on occupied territories, children are forcibly deported to russia, sent to re-education camps, and given up for adoption to russian families. Article 2, point E of the Genocide Convention.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.

Mark Kelly: "The only oath I can think of that maybe Elon has sworn is an oath to his own checking account."

Nice expression: Ukrainian delegation arrives in KSA ahead of its meeting with the "MAGAstani" delegation. (By the way, any MAGA insults against the Saudi hosts for "not wearing suits"? Yes? No?)

Has it occured to Elon that he should give the hackers a piece of his company to get them to stop doing it? Apparently that's how this works.

Absolutely amazing past 24 hours for Tesla stock

I’ll give it a shot.

Twitter explained.

A brilliant sketch from the Netherlands about America's new foreign policy: two ambulance workers arrive at the scene of an accident and proceed to berate the injured man who is there, insisting that he say thank you. English subtitles available. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Snn...

Checkmate.

Chinese journalists have filmed a report with the Ukrainian Armed Forces for the first time, even participating in shelling Russian positions. Previously, this media outlet had only filmed reports with Russian troops.

I am 100% sure Saudi US-Ukraine negotiations won’t work. There are two guys in the middle not wearing suits, and I see no cards on the table. Looks just horrible for the US side!

I decided to share some Ukrainian wartime humor with you. A stand-up: Every time Ukraine is "buried", then everyone is surprised to find out that we not only survived but keep fighting. 📹: Anton Tymoshenko

In the spring of 2022, Kharkiv's streets were meant to be adorned with these decorations. However, it never happened because russia invaded and began bombing our city. Now, three years later, the decorations are finally in place

Feeling bad tonight? Donate to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. They are the only real security guarantee for all of us.

The goal of the regime is for us to keep dying without anyone hearing about it.

On the day of shame where the 🇺🇸 joined the gang of dictatorships and military juntas at the 🇺🇳, the 🇵🇱 FM @radek-sikorski.bsky.social spells out the realities for everyone to hear. Watch, like and share for Heaven's sake! www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4JF...

This was the first time in their lives, I realized, that these boys and girls had been in an actual classroom. The Russian invasion began as covid was ending. Two years of covid seclusion had been followed directly by three years of war. The kids were buoyant. snyder.substack.com/p/my-favorit...

One way to commemorate the end of the third year of Russia’s senseless, criminal war against Ukraine is to read the work of Ukrainians about it. Vika did not live to see the publication of this book, since she was killed by a Russian missile. But we can see her in her words.

JUST IN: A convict released by self-proclaimed President Kavelashvili's amnesty (among 613 persons) just killed a 23-year-old and casually left the country to Turkey. Thank God the police are too busy fining and torturing peaceful protesters.

If true then the US is now a genuine Russia-style mafia state. Russia extorts with energy-, the US with tech-dependence. I trust the conclusions we draw from this will also turn into a semblance of policy.
