This is not a border. This is a front line. If we give the Russians the feeling that even one meter of this front is not safe, then another Bucha in Germany or another country will be the result. „De-escalation“ means that Europe is massively rearming and investing 5% of GDP in armaments.

This is currently being reported on the World Service. Romania not dropping charges but allowing him to go to the US, from where he'll presumably never return. Seemingly a capitulation to Trump.

How would you feel if your country was partially occupied by a foreign force? Currently, russia occupies approximately 20% of #Ukraine's territory. dorinbanar / Instagram

Trump claims Russia invaded Ukraine to prevent having “NATO on their doorstep.” In fact, NATO has already bordered Russia for decades: 1949: Norway 1999: Poland 2004: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania 2023: Finland Putin uses NATO as an excuse to justify Russia’s attack on Ukraine

Raiders minority owner Tom Brady and Rams QB Matthew Stafford ran into each other at a ski resort in Montana, sources say. The meeting, unplanned, was not extensive or in-depth and did not include Brady “hosting” or “recruiting” Stafford, despite reports saying otherwise.

Confirmed to be an unvaxxed child. We have to talk about the foreign influence campaigns around vaccines. Hostile intelligence agencies — and their useful idiots in the US — are convincing the “do your own research” crowd to kill their children to own the libs.

Ukraine has: Liberated 7% of the 27% of its territory invaded by fascist Russia Forced Russia's Black Sea Fleet from Ukraine's territory Decimated Russia's army Significantly damaged Russia's oil and gas sector Withstood 3 Russian winter bombing campaigns #RussiaNotWinning

Trump’s numbers on US & European aid to Ukraine are completely fabricated — Europe has given more to Ukraine and the US hasn’t reached anywhere near $350 billion.

Taiwan detained a Chinese-crewed ship on suspicions of undersea cable sabotage - The Guardian A communications cable was damaged on Tuesday off the coast of Taiwan.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

The UK's '2.5% of GDP by 2027' announcement is welcome. But let's be clear. That trajectory essentially allows the MoD to maintain programmes & plug growing holes in existing force structure, rather than any dramatic change, such as backfilling for American assets in Europe.

‘The perfect target’: Russia cultivated Trump as asset for 40 years – ex-KGB spy This article is more than 4 years old The KGB ‘played the game as if they were immensely impressed by his personality’, Yuri Shvets, a key source for a new book, tells the Guardian www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021...

Been a good day today. From morning to evening, European leaders standing up, all around the world, one after another, and speaking clearly against the Trump/Putin agenda.

The United States just voted against a United Nations resolution condemning Russia for invading Ukraine. The US sided with Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, and the Grand Ayatollah of Iran.

A personal note about the @katiephangshow.bsky.social:

“Luckily for the bloc, the lion’s share of those [frozen] funds — around €200 billion — is being held in Brussels-based financial institution Euroclear and is earning interest. The U.S., on the other hand, holds a mere $5 billion.”

Few people in American politics have ever exhibited less moral clarity than Nikki Haley has since 2016.

Putin’s lifelong dream was to somehow separate the US from NATO. But how to break up a strong alliance that stood for 80 years and continued to expand? There really was only one way to do it, he figured it out a decade ago, and played the long game. Now his guy will do it.

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Yup.

For three years, the brave Ukrainian people have heroically defended their country against Putin’s war machine. Now, more than ever, we must stand firmly in support of our Ukrainian friends, resist Trump's stitch up with Putin and work with our European neighbours to defend freedom and democracy.

French President Macron: The United States should be compensated by Russia for expenses incurred in supporting Ukraine, since Russia started the war.

BREAKING: US voted against Ukraine's UN resolution which branded Russia the "aggressor" & demanded withdrawal of its troops. US on list of 18 nations also incl Russia, Iran and North Korea to vote against. UK & most European nations among 93 states to back Ukrainian resolution. China abstained.

Fellas if your wife ever gets mad at you for something you did you should say she has husband derangement syndrome. Make memes about her having it and post them online

CNN plays a clip of Russian state TV praising Trump for being "in total alignment" with Putin

Today, in my city of Odesa, a memorial plaque was unveiled to honor the soldiers who gave their lives for Ukraine’s freedom. While some sacrifice everything for liberty, others sit in comfortable offices, calling this war a ‘territorial dispute’ and joking about Ukraine’s surrender.

The U.K. will impose a travel ban on individuals who have significant ties to the Russian state or have built their wealth through Kremlin connections. The new sanctions come amid broader Western efforts to tighten pressure on Moscow.

when did they stop calling the AFD “far right”?

Russian losses per 23/02/25 reported by the Ukrainian General Staff. +1180 men +7 tanks +12 AFVs +54 artillery systems +1 MLRS +1 AD system +117 UAVs

Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times. “In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

Trump is a goddamn traitor to America. Any congressional Republican who supports him — or is afraid to stand up to him — is just as much of a traitor as Trump.

"The occupant of the Oval Office – the leader of the free world – seems happier to side with the brutal tyrant Putin than to support America’s allies. It feels like we have fallen through the looking glass." - Ed Davey MP, Leader Lib Dems 🔶 www.independent.co.uk/voices/ed-da...
