In the middle of the blame game realize one undeniable fact:

Donald Trump should not have been allowed to run for office.

Donald Trump should have been prosecuted by Merrick Garland and the Justice Department like anyone who did what he did.

The delay destroyed this country.

Was something unclear about my July 6 tweet?

[Let Us Now Praise... The Beatles @BeatlesPraise]

"The Beatles showe me the way, but the important thing to me is that they showed everybody the way. They were a tidal wave of the New World. They weren’t like any other band, and it’s hard to show people that if they weren’t there. The phenomenon of people standing in the rain and screaming and fainting . . . it was because the Beatles had some kind of a spirit in them, some kind of magic that was put into the music — but there was something larger than that that was happening, and it changed the world. You know, before the Beatles, people were listening to Annette Funicello. There was a little rhythm and blues, but not much on the radio then. The Beatles changed everything. They were a phenomenon like nothing I’ve seen in life since. Nothing — not in art, not in politics, nothing."

🔥President Zelensky: “We aren't ready to give our freedom to this fucking terrorist Putin".

‼️At this speed, how soon do you think we will see the Taliban on the Security Council with the right of veto?

The Taliban will participate for the first time in a UN climate conference.

Azerbaijan invited representatives from Afghanistan’s environmental agency as observers, allowing them to "potentially take part in side discussions and possibly hold bilateral meetings."

Since the Taliban is not officially recognized within the UN system as Afghanistan's legitimate government, Taliban representatives cannot receive credentials to participate in events designated for full member states.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Bryan Lanza, a Republican party strategist, told the BBC in an interview that the Trump administration will ask Volodymyr Zelensky for his version of a "realistic vision for peace".

"And if President Zelensky comes to the table and says, well we can only have peace if we have Crimea, he shows to us that he's not serious," Bryan Lanza said. "Crimea is gone."

Ukraine wants peace more than anyone. But peace does not mean just another frozen conflict. Peace must be sustainable.

To ensure this, Ukraine needs real workable security guarantees that will deter Russia.

Statements like “Crimea is gone” are a direct invitation for Putin not to make peace, but to continue his invasion and terror of Ukraine, until “Ukraine is gone” instead.

We cannot range or categorize Ukrainian territories. This paves the way for a great redrawing of the geopolitical map post-Ukraine – and not just in Europe. No one knows where that will stop and how much blood will be shed in the process.

The USA has never recognized Crimea as Russian and sanctioned the Russian authorities for the occupation of the peninsula. It’s very important that this stance continues to be voiced and heard. The Crimea issue is not a short-term one. Obviously, right now no one is discussing a swift liberation of Russian-occupied Crimea. We are talking about stopping combat, about negotiations and the search for leverage that would allow us to stop Putin.

And that is the main question. It is not "how to influence Ukraine". The main question is how to stop Russia and Putin.

Odesa was under a massive Russian drone attack last night. A residential complex was hit.

One person died, 13 more injured. Two of the injured are children. Apartments and vehicles were on fire - local administration.

So many families are left devastated every night by Russia.

Good night!
We’re certain the sun will rise again tomorrow, just as we’re certain that Ukraine will prevail.

Today Russia attacked a school in my native Odesa. I'm sure Russia will say that NATO soldiers were there.
Locals came to help clean up the rubble in school.
