A Russian woman is going viral posting anti-Putin rants, today saying that the money they spend on war for a single day could fix the teeth of every pensioner in Russia, and that she doesn't need Ukraine and isn't giving her son's to "Putin's ass" just to come home in a bodybag.
The woman then wishes the people of Ukraine "good health".
This is wonderful!
Moldova's President Maia Sandu has announced that the country is ready to join the Coalition of the Willing to support Ukraine.
This marks a significant shift from Moldova’s traditional neutral stance.
Moldova is clearly choosing Europe and freedom.

Today’s meeting with @bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz was special and substantive. We focused specifically on how to make our efforts even more active and stronger. Before the bilateral talks, we saw seven types of drones produced at our joint enterprises – six aerial and one ground-based. This is a significant result of our cooperation, and it is important that there will be more. Today, we have new agreements on cooperation – ten in total – across the most important areas. I thank Germany.
Germany is a key leader in supporting Ukraine and protecting lives – it is Germany that ranks number one in Europe in terms of assistance to our defense. We all see how geopolitical sentiments can shift and how much depends on Europe’s ability to stand up for itself – for its way of life and its values. Importantly, Germany remains strong, remains committed, and is truly capable of defending the interests of Europe and Europeans.
MoD, FEDOROV: Ukraine signed €4 billion defense cooperation package with Germany.
Hundreds of Patriot missiles, 36 IRIS-T launchers, €300 million for long-range capabilities, joint production of 5,000 AI attack drones.
Win-win for Ukraine’s defense and Europe’s security.

If someone is telling you that they have changed… do not believe them. Not just because you are bitter or holding onto something, but because real change is never something that needs to be announced out loud like that.
People who truly change do not sit there and try to convince you with words. They do not repeat it, they do not push it, they do not expect you to just accept it. Real change is quiet. It shows up in actions, in consistency, in the small things that do not need attention.
And the truth is… most people do not actually change. They adjust for a moment, they say what needs to be said, they become who they think you want them to be… until it gets uncomfortable again and then they go right back to who they were.
So no… do not believe words. Words are easy. Anyone can say them.
Watch what they do. Watch how they act when things are not going their way, when no one is watching, when there is nothing to gain.
That is why words do not mean much here because anyone can say “I have changed.” But actions will always speak louder than words.
“I want to hug my daughter. That’s what I survived for.”
Meet Yaroslav, callsign ‘Mudryi’ - The Wise One.
A few days ago he came back from holding the line for 86 straight days in Sumy region, alongside his brother-in-arms ‘Gnom’.
Before the war, he was a sculptor and painter. On February 24, 2022, he enlisted. He repairs drones directly on position. He writes poetry between missions.
When asked what keeps him going he just said ‘My daughter motivates me. I know where my place is. I am where I belong.’
This is who is defending Ukraine.

“Our government kills, imprisons, or forces into exile those who try to express even the slightest disagreement with the regime,” a Russian teenager says the quiet part out loud.
