Kamala Harris launched an ad in support of Ukraine

Politico writes about it. Advertising will be included in three “doubtful” states regarding voting in the elections. These are Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, where there is a significant population with roots from Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania and other Eastern European countries.

Russia has just sentenced an innocent man to 16 years in a high security prison.
I have no words to describe this farce. Let’s get Evan out of there

[Yaroslav Trofimov @yarotrof]

Russian missiles strike Kyiv’s main children’s hospital. The hand that ordered this is being shaken by Orban, Modi and Xi.

You've set us free.

This is simply an extraordinary study. Researchers gave $7,500 (CAD) to homeless people in Vancouver. The result? The program *saved* money. It helped many of them to move into housing faster, which saved the shelter system $8,277 per person. 🧵👇

This is Moca. He just learned some people think unions cause strikes and not the immense greed of corporations that refuse to pay employees a fair share despite owing the entirety of their profits to the labor of working people. 14/10

I have served our community as a Nurse Practitioner for over a decade. My position has always been clear: politicians have no place in the exam room.

My opponent? He was caught talking about outlawing abortion.

They'll go as far as we let them.

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

🧵 On March 29, Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich was detained in Russia during a reporting trip.

He remains in a Moscow prison.

We’re offering resources for those who want to show their support for him. #IStandWithEvan https://t.co/ll83UMXlp5

[Pjotr Sauer @PjotrSauer]

A Moscow court has extended the detention of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who was arrested on bogus espionage charges at the end of March. It has been 21 weeks since Evan was detained for doing his job. Evan should be released immediately! #IStandWithEvan

[Judy Twigg @jtwigg9]

Important new @CFR_org report from @D_P_Fidler, showing how covid and climate change demand a new U.S. foreign policy for global health. Honored to have served on the advisory committee for the project. https://t.co/q2x1fZBQDz

We're now 500 days into the Russian invasion of Ukraine. As the president a top university in Ukraine, I want to share how the war has transformed our institution.

In first days of the war, we pivoted - to survive and respond. This is what we did 1/

[Pjotr Sauer @PjotrSauer]

It’s been 100 days since my friend WSJ journalist Evan Gershkovich was wrongly detained in Russia. Together with journalists from @volkskrant @parool @trouw, as well as @MoscowTimes & @tvrain, I stand with Evan and his family. #IStandWithEvan

[Matthew Luxmoore @mjluxmoore]

100 days since Evan’s arrest in Russia. On this milestone all of us @wsj with Evan’s friends and family are recalling his honest dedication to this craft and calling on everyone to keep pushing on all fronts for his release. The paper’s front page today #IStandWithEvan #FreeEvan

@pronounced_ing I assigned Our Missing Hearts to the students in my political science senior capstone class last spring. They’ll remember your characters and ideas way longer than all that academic political science-y stuff. Thank you for capturing and transforming our hearts 💕
