Amb Pifer noted that 🇷🇺 committed “to respect Ukraine's sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence and not use or threaten to use force against Ukraine.”

Why would anyone trust 🇷🇺 in new negotiations?
What could 🇷🇺 possibly offer that 🇷🇺 hasn’t already breached ?

28 years ago today, as part of arrangements to eliminate former-Soviet nuclear weapons in #Ukraine, #Russia committed in Budapest Memorandum to respect Ukraine's sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence and not use or threaten to use force against Ukraine.

The limitations and reduced speeds for Starshield (military side of Starlink) have returned hindering Ukraine’s ability to defend itself. Whether it is the Executive Branch or Mr Musk, this decision leads to more Ukrainians getting killed. These actions aid the war criminal Putin. Congress must do BIG Oversight here and pinpoint responsibility. Siding with the tyrant is UnAmerican.

The goal of russia’s negotiations is to drag out negotiations with russia.

Russia swims in frozen conflict, they do that for years on end.

Why in the world would anyone believe russia wants to resolve anything in these negotiations ?

Just arm Ukraine to the teeth; we’ll see a better result faster than these negotiations could ever produce.

If John Mark Dougan is still alive, I’d encourage the UK to extract him from wherever he is and bring him in for questioning, debriefing, and his own safety.

Why ? I don’t believe he’ll last long in Moscow, now that he appears to be flipping.

His efforts against Europe, including Ukraine, should be sufficient to justify UK’s involvement.

If we ( the US ) had a normal president, I’d say we should do it.

However, our current president is beholden to Putin, so I don’t see an honest debriefing. Rather, I don’t see the results becoming public, as necessary, to help our democracy maintain itself.

New: The contents of a hacked computer belonging to John Mark Dougin, an American ex-cop living in Russia, offer documentary evidence that he worked with the FSB and GRU to peddle disinformation. He liaised with GRU Unit 29155 the originator of the Ukraine biolabs hoax, and his "moment of triumph came in June 2026, when information from his investigation was endorsed by @TulsiGabbard, who was serving as director of national intelligence in the Trump administration." https://t.co/yUTo5ZAEq7

“ … restrictions on Starlink have backfired spectacularly … ”

I love it when a 🇷🇺 - aligned politician is an embarrassing failure.

🔥Russians are panicking over Ukraine’s new refinery strike tactics. Drones reportedly switch targets mid-flight, and Trump can no longer simply pull the plug.

The Russian Telegram channel *Дневник Разведчика* (Intelligence Officer’s Diary, 147,800 subscribers) describes a major shift in Ukraine’s long-range drone campaign following the strikes on Kstovo, Samara and Yaroslavl.

Previously, Ukrainian drones were sent toward predetermined targets. If the first drones successfully hit a refinery unit, the rest continued toward the same target.

Now, according to the Russian channel, Ukrainian operators can monitor strikes in real time and redirect incoming drones while they are still in flight.

Once a primary distillation unit is hit, subsequent drones can be redirected toward storage tanks, cracking units, electrical substations or other critical equipment.

Instead of concentrating an entire wave on one target, Ukraine can distribute the damage across multiple parts of the refinery.

The Russians are describing something far more dangerous for their oil industry than simply larger drone attacks: the ability to adapt an entire strike while it is happening.

The channel attributes this capability to Israeli HiSKY SmartLight satellite communications terminals, which it says Ukraine is using as an alternative to Starlink.

It claims the terminals allow two-way communication over Russian territory, making it possible to adjust flight paths, identify air-defence positions and redirect drones around interception zones.

And then comes the most revealing part.

The Russian channel argues that American restrictions on Starlink have backfired spectacularly.

Its conclusion:

"Trump has simply lost his leverage over Kyiv’s long-range strikes."

And:

"Ukraine has slipped off the American leash and found a commercial alternative that the White House cannot switch off with a phone call."

That is coming from a Russian military channel, not Ukrainian propaganda.

Moscow is now discussing a scenario in which Ukraine can strike multiple critical refinery units in a single operation, adapt to Russian air defences in real time and continue its campaign without depending on American-controlled communications.

Putin has been trying to get Trump to restrain Ukraine’s refinery strikes. Now Russian military commentators are warning that even American pressure may no longer be enough.

The irony is extraordinary. Washington reportedly tried to limit Ukraine’s options. The Russians are now complaining that Ukraine has found a way around those limits.

The HiSKY deployment, electronic-warfare resistance and real-time retargeting capabilities are claims made by the Russian channel, not independently established technical facts. The attribution in the draft matters, especially for the claims about Trump’s leverage.

The U.S. should help Ukraine acquire more modern F-16s to help defend its cities from Russia’s daily bombings. The older F-16s can be outmatched by Russia’s fighters… the newer versions will give Ukraine the advantage.

Hello @jstrocchi !

Even from a cursory review of your account, I can see you are a pro - 🇷🇺, disingenuous, disinformation account.

As such, I think you will value this fun article !

It’s a bit older, but I like it, and it has a great cover image.

Spoiler Alert: Although Western Democracies can’t accelerate it, russia 🇷🇺 can’t stop it.

Enjoy !

@HRHTish Good call. That’s insightful.

@nafoviking You should be aware many great works of art begin from the inspiration that is Pineapple on Pizza.

These hidden paintings are often known as Pentimenti (singular pentimento)

It is only recently, through modern technology, that we’ve been able to discern such awesomeness.

[Rep. Emanuel Cleaver @repcleaver]

While Vladimir Putin continues to murder innocent civilians in his war of aggression, the president takes every opportunity to side with Russia and insult the Ukrainians who are fighting for their freedom.

It is obscene and deeply damaging to America’s standing on the world stage.

That was gracious of you to pitch the place to a prospective tenant.

I’m only half kidding, but you could send the landlord a bill for your services.

Selling rentals is hard work. That type of service is typically worth $1860, but you can give him half-off your normal fee and charge him only 930 ( 260 + 670 ).

Kidding aside, it’s weird that they didn’t bring up any issues when you met the prospective tenant and also when you offered to give the landlord extra time before hand.

Keep us posted.

@TimberLlc @islandportbooks Thanks for the reminder ! I’m looking forward to this !

I had pre-ordered “Wood Work: Crafting a Living, Building a Life” back in July.

Gosh, time flies.

@RepJasonCrow @SophiePerrin18 @RepLiccardo Yes, thank you ! 🙏

- Garry Kasparov:

"Russia is losing influence, but not because of Maduro, not because of Iranians, not because of Syria, but because Ukraine survived. Period.

The main reason why Putin lost his influence he exercised before is because Ukraine refused to capitulate and defended itself and proved that Putin was not all-powerful. It's very clear."

Awesome as always 😉🫡

@Havoc_Six I can’t put my finger on it, but their sustainment enterprise looks familiar for some reason.

@KaterynaLis It’s quite brilliant.

For whoever did it, I’d like to encourage them to also communicate the ties between russia and the other members of the admin, too. ( As we all know, it’s not just Trump. )

Why ? 2028 will be upon us in no time.
