Trump and Xi will be friends even after China attacks Taiwan. Trump and Putin are friends while Russia supplies weapons and intel to Iran to attack US forces & allies. Trump and Kim Jong-un are friends even as North Korean troops invade Europe in Ukraine.
Former Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov has broken one of Ukraine's most politically sensitive wartime taboos by publicly calling for elections, bringing into the mainstream a debate that Kyiv had largely rejected when raised by Russia and the United States.https://t.co/HKOXj541WS
Most Ukrainians, including much of the opposition, oppose wartime elections.
I have yet to hear a single realistic plan on how to organize fair and safe elections that allow proper campaigning, include all Ukrainians, and stop enemies of Ukraine from weaponizing the process
Fedorov’s YouTube intervention appears to have backfired considerably.
Ukrainians were protesting because they wanted Fedorov as Defence Minister, not because they wanted him to create a political power struggle or call for wartime elections.
Instead, he attacked a government he’s been part of for years, the protests effectively disappeared, and support consolidated behind Khmara.
He may have badly mistaken support for Fedorov the Defence Minister for support for Fedorov the political challenger.
They are not the same thing,
I love Ukrainians 🇺🇦
Russia continues to indiscriminately massacre civilians in residential buildings in Ukraine.
Ukraine desperately needs Patriot missiles. Sadly, we have a shortage ourselves here in the United States.
Another day, another war crime from Putin. This monster has acted with impunity for years. We need to ensure the Ukrainians have what they need to beat him once and for all.

By mistaking enthusiasm for his reforms as approval for a political fight, Mykhailo Fedorov just blew a massive opportunity.
What should he have done instead to serve his country while securing his long-term career?
Fedorov spent seven years building genuine credibility, especially through his groundbreaking work as minister of digital transformation. Yet calling for national elections only after losing the defense ministry reveals a total lapse in judgment. He never pushed for elections while in cabinet, which makes his sudden stance look like personal ambition disguised as principle.
If he truly cared about Ukraine more than his career, he would have swallowed his pride and accepted another critical assignment, such as CEO of Ukroboronprom or another ministerial seat. Taking a lower-profile role to keep helping the war effort would have proven his motives were pure, earning him immense respect and setting him up perfectly for a future presidential run.
Instead, he chose to overreach and challenge wartime unity. By framing himself as a political adversary to Zelensky during an invasion, he sidelined himself, leaving both Ukraine and his own career worse off
Natalie Harp is not a dumb blond as she plays one on TV. She is trump’s 24/7 handler on behalf of Putin. She is a mouthpiece for Putin, singing Putin’s lullabies to trump every late night. Trump gets up in the morning doing Putin another favor. Karoline was naive. N. Korea?
CNN reports that when Trump aide Natalie Harp was told there was no room for her in his motorcade as he headed to a NY courthouse, she got into a screaming match with staffers, insisting Trump had personally asked her to come
When they still refused her a seat, she jumped into an SUV’s trunk to follow him.
Donald Trump is set to record a podcast interview on Thursday with Michael Cohen, his former personal lawyer and fixer who later became a persistent public critic and the star witness in the hush money trial that led to Trump’s conviction on 34 felony counts—MS Now
Now that Heidi Overton has been selected as the head of the FDA, I’ll remind everyone that she was one of the officials involved in the publication of the notorious and highly embarrassing White House “MAHA report”, which was full of fake and AI citations.
So in other words, another DEI hire.
I’m glad merit is so important in America.
