The @FloridaGOP should know news outlets cannot be punished for publishing information from whistleblowers.

The Supreme Court case that says it’s not the job of journalists to maintain the government’s confidences literally has Florida in the name.

New - Zelensky says that U.S. intel sharing with Ukraine has been restored: “I’m speaking about early warning. What is very important for our people, for children, adults, civilians, because we can hear when (a) ballistic (missile) is coming. So we are thankful to American side. Now it works. It’s great,”

These are not transfers from the US, but from other countries. The US is now actively sabotaging Ukrainian defense of civilians.

RUBIO: IT COULD BE ACCURATE THAT A BATCH OF INTERCEPTORS PURCHASED FOR UKRAINE UNDER PURL PROGRAM HAS NOT BEEN DELIVERED

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

The White House has blocked the transfer of Patriot missiles to Ukraine, US officials have said.

The transfer of interceptor missiles from countries friendly to Ukraine requires the approval of Pete Hegseth, the US defence secretary ⤵️

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) & Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) have alarming readout of their conversation with Vlodymyr Zelenskyy:

“Pres. Zelenskyy confirmed that critical Starlink services remain degraded, including on systems traveling at speeds above 100 miles per hour, impeding Ukraine’s ability to intercept Russian drones. He also reported disruptions to U.S. intelligence sharing concerning early warning of Russian ballistic missile launches. As a result of these disruptions, civilians – children – are dying"

Unsurprisingly State officials (who openly support Paxton) have not done anything to help clear the backlog.
