Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. Putin was indicted for this crime. Yale has a unit searching for them. Musk eliminated the funding.

Russia’s leaders have said nothing about peace. They have made a list of demands on the US, the fulfillment of which allows them to broaden the war against Ukraine. And the US simply fulfills all of these Russian demands without question. That is only a peace process in the Orwellian sense.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.

There are facts that Trump 🇺🇸 just refuses to see. His world is often more a world of fiction.

🇪🇺 The IRIS program is Europe's replacement for Starlink. The constellation will consist of over 300 satellites to serve Europe alone. Security and sovereignty! Like Galileo, it could surpass its US counterpart. Fewer satellites, smarter coverage. Eventually more could be added

The premise of American foreign policy to Ukraine, today, is one of grievance. It is worth patiently considering the proposals. They reveal little about Ukraine, but much about America in February 2025.

As Trump makes concessions to Russia, he is showing weakness on a level unprecedented in modern US history. His position is so weak that it is unlikely to convince anyone. Trump is a sheep in wolf’s clothing. The wolves can tell the difference.

🚨 TAXPAYER WASTE ALERT 🚨

After lounging in Florida for four days, Donald Trump just took Air Force One for a 25-minute flight from Palm Beach to Miami—a trip that cost taxpayers nearly $1 million!

Most presidents would have just used the motorcade, but not King Donald! The waste never stops.

Where the hell is DOGE when you need them?!

[Mike Pence @Mike_Pence]

Mr. President, Ukraine did not “start” this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.🇺🇸🇺🇦

Excellent idea.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Andrew Natsios, a Republican former administrator of USAID:

“I’m not a moderate Republican; I’m a conservative Republican…the reason they [Republicans] aren't saying anything is because they’re afraid. Musk said that he’d spend $100 million in primaries on anyone who opposes the president on anything. There’s a lot of fear in the city right now.”

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.

[Machine Pun Kelly 🇺🇦 @KellyScaletta]

Whoever did this is a genius.

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

Are you fucking kidding me? While disregarding the thousands of Ukrainian lives lost, this traitorous mango twat thinks bcz Russia lost lives during its illegal invasion of Ukraine, Russia should keep the land they now illegally occupy. WHAT. THE. FUCK. �

Students at Stanford have built alphaXiv, an open discussion forum for arXiv papers. Think of it as 𝕏 for research.

Yaroslav's entire family was killed - three daughters: Yaryna, Daryna, Emiliia, and Yevheniia, Yaroslav's wife. Only he managed to survive. He was rescued from the rubble.

I cannot even begin to imagine what he is going through now because of Russia.

Ukraine needs permission to strike critical military targets in Russia.
Ukraine knows the exact locations in Voronezh, Belgorod, and Kursk regions from which Russian strikes against Ukraine originate.

[Matthew Berman @MatthewBerman]

Tomorrow is a pivotal day in the world of AI, with the release of LLaMA 3.1 405b.

Suddenly, the world will have access to an open-source model considered SOTA.

It BEATS GPT4o on many benchmarks.

What a time to be alive.

At least 17 people were killed in Kyiv, and 41 injured.

Russia is a terrorist state.
