😭🕯 Veronika Chuyan, a 29-year-old mother, was killed yesterday during the Russian attack on Kyiv. She was running to a bomb shelter, desperately trying to get her children to safety.

​She was trying to save her two little boys, aged 5 and nearly 3.

​A Russian missile exploded right next to the family. Veronika died on the spot. Her eldest son is now in the hospital; he suffered severe injuries and underwent emergency surgery. Her youngest child escaped with only bruises.

Exactly right.
The lazy reporting unfortunately wins most of the time.
Unsophisticated, unread & incurious reporters leads to a situation where it's all too easy for Americans to picture this war as one where "both sides share the blame." Nothing could be further from the truth.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

More of CNN's false equivalence language. Ukraine is not targeting St. Petersburg, but striking military installations, Russian warships, and oil refineries. It's the Russian terror state that strikes cities and targets civilians. https://t.co/Cy7DgqtkuT

This is not World War II footage.

This is Toretsk, Ukraine — and it’s not as far away as you think.

A city that once had over 30,000 residents. Now almost completely erased.

There is no excuse for this. None.

@DakdaR22 He's 100% correct.

Moment When Radoslaw Sikorski reminded America, UK, France and Russia that they guaranteed Ukrainian security and borders in 1994!

- Sikorski:
“As you know, Russia, the USA, and Great Britain guaranteed the security of Ukraine and its borders.
In exchange for Ukraine giving up what was then the third largest arsenal of nuclear weapons in the world. In 1994.
So you have an obligation to Ukraine to help them defend their freedom.”

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

This is not a movie about meteor showers before the apocalypse; this is Russia bombing Kyiv last night. A city with several million people in it - children, the elderly, and normal families just like yours.

Scott Pelley told the truth. So CBS News fired him.

Dr. Oz saying Trump keeps going back for medical checkups because he "likes the results" is one of the laziest fucking lies I've ever heard from this administration.

The contempt they must have for the American people to think anyone would believe that is staggering.

[Judith A. Milch🇺🇲🇺🇦 @JudithMilch]

He's insane.
And stupid, cruel, petty & vindictive.
And he's flailing.

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

The Trump administration is DISMANTLING the network of buoys that help California monitor for major tsunamis and earthquakes.

Cool.

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

WAKE UP, AMERICA.

The Supreme Court majority just admitted it’s a PARTISAN operator willing to TORCH the rule of law to advance its ideological agenda.

In an unprecedented move with a brief UNSIGNED order, it: 1) IGNORED the central basis of the lower court’s decision, 2) DISREGARDED its own precedent (that it had assured just weeks ago remained good law), and 3) REWARDED Alabama's defiance of a federal court order.

All to help Republicans squeeze out one more seat in the midterms. And on Election Day for millions of Americans no less!

This is sick.

Every member of Congress who remains silent on Bill Pulte’s appointment as director of national intelligence is actively choosing personal political survival over the literal safety of the United States.

Hopefully, Ukraine can keep sending drones to St. Petersburg throughout the five days of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

The guests need to understand two things: Russia is losing, and you don't fuck with Ukraine.

[Andy Kim @AndyKimNJ]

Because of your voice on Delaney Hall, the Trump admin just released 18 yr old high school senior whose story I told. They released the pregnant women held inside. These releases show ICE isn’t targeting the violent criminals. ICE is feeling the pressure. Keep raising your voice.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Unfortunately, the current level of supplies for our air defense does not allow us to intercept a significant share of missiles. Last night, there were hits. 130 people were injured. Tragically, 22 people were killed, including two children. My condolences to all those who have lost their loved ones.

We know from intelligence that another large-scale strike may come as soon as tonight. All our partners together, and everyone in Europe, should continue working to ensure missiles for our air defense, as well as the systems, critical intelligence, and other things that help to save lives.

It is crystal clear that Europe needs its own anti-ballistic system with sufficient volumes and strength to guarantee protection against any threat.

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

Kyiv was hit with a huge missile and drone attack this morning.

Also this morning, another ship with 2,200 tonnes of alumina headed from Ireland to russia to build those weapons. This has to stop immediately.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

Dear @ScottPelley

Thank you.

Thank you for standing up when it was inconvenient.

Thank you for standing up when it cost you a job you loved.

Thank you for standing up to power and for trying to save a landmark news program.

Thank you for your INTEGRITY.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.

Because it's TRUE. 😆
