Tr*mp is walking right into the trap. Except the trap is not just about Ukraine. It’s also about Russia’s subversion of the United States. #DefendDemocracy

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

As European leaders rally around Zelensky in support, the head of the EU's most Kremlin-infiltrated government is, as usual, siding with the other side. The EU must not only take the threats posed by Putin and Trump seriously—it must also finally confront the danger within.

The Duck-Vuck-Muck-Zuck regime is in bed with Putin. Not in the name of the People of America. Yet. Let's differentiate between the regime and the people. For now. How long before U.S. (conventional & social) media is fully captured by the state & people are watching 24/7 US-Kremlin propaganda?

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

For the third year in a row, @defenddemocracy.bsky.social joins a peaceful protest in support of Ukraine's fight for freedom, democracy and security. Theirs and ours. Kudos to @michielvanhulten.eu for making a great placard. The fourth picture is a Ukrainian veteran who wanted to hold our sign 💛💙

Time for Realpolitik: "It is vital for Europe to speak with one voice. That means national politicians will finally have to make their egos and their personal ambitions subordinate to the European interest. That would be true leadership." #EUsky #EUpol sophieintveld.substack.com/p/time-for-r...

This is 💯 % how @defenddemocracy.bsky.social feels too. We’ve been warning since at least 2017 (and I since 2014) for Russian aggression & the weaponisation of Big Tech platforms’ addictive design. EU still hasn’t moved beyond chasing symptoms rather than addressing causes 🤦🏾‍♀️ Build Eurostack NOW!

The weaponization of US technology companies means we should treat our dependence on them as a national security threat ↘️

Just to be very clear: Any “end” to Russia’s illegal war of aggression in Ukraine that does not include full prosecution of Russian war crimes — including leadership crimes — is spitting in the face of the American sacrifice in Europe and the entire legacy of peace and security born from Nuremberg

This is not a peace negotiation. This is the beginning of a US-russian alliance. All that's left is for the US to commit troops to help the weak russian army conquer Ukraine and remove Zelensky. Forget the betrayal; it was expected. This is pathetic US deference to the weak russian dictatorship.

Russia recklessly attacked again the Chornobyl nuclear site. Such attacks on civilian nuclear sites are unacceptable. It shows once again that Russia is not looking for peace.
