Things are moving so fast that everyone seems to have completely missed how insane it is that AI companies have been allowed to unleash agentic AI products with no regulatory guidelines.
One of the most powerful missile attacks on Kyiv in recent memory. Dozens of explosions. Russian missiles are hitting various parts of the city tonight.
It seems Witkoff was negotiating not peace in Moscow, but more strikes on Ukraine. After his visit, "humanist" Putin became even more furious in his killing.
Nobel laureate @avalaina has documented Russian war crimes in Ukraine since its full-scale invasion. Her reaction to Trump saying Russia has been “fine”’ there?: “We document intentional murders of civilians every day…I'm sorry to say, but this presidential administration completely lost their ability to distinguish between good and evil.”
Starlink has absolutely no role in the one military campaign Trump claims he wants Ukraine to end: hitting Russian oil refineries. It only works in Ukraine and it helps with air defense — homegrown air defense, to be specific, which was born of necessity because we aren’t providing enough missile interceptors. A Russian Shahed today killed a one-year baby in a park. The U.S. is actively making it easier for Russia to commit these atrocities by throttling satellite internet. All while Trump makes excuses for Putin.

“Russian borders don’t end anywhere” is a quote from no-one else but Putin. Which is why giving him Donbas, or Kyiv for that matter, will not be the end of a war but the beginning of a new one — with Russia in a much stronger position and Ukrainians its cannon fodder.
Russia struck this little girl’s house with a drone the day after I took this photo. Her father and brother were killed. She only survived as she had gone to the kitchen to get water.
