BREAKING: The family of Alex Pretti just released this statement about his killing by Trump’s goons:
“We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you”
@robdoar@KeithOlbermann Not only disarmed but he did nothing to provoke this. He held his hand up to block pepper spray and stop a beast from shoving a woman to the ground.
Former President of Poland Lech Walesa wrote the following letter to Trump.
Your Excellency, Mr. President,
We watched the report of your conversation with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, with fear and distaste. We find it insulting that you expect Ukraine to show respect and gratitude for the material assistance provided by the United States in its fight against russia. Gratitude is owed to the heroic Ukrainian soldiers who shed their blood in defense of the values of the free world. They have been dying on the front lines for more than 11 years in the name of these values and the independence of their homeland, which was attacked by Putin’s russia.
We do not understand how the leader of a country that symbolizes the free world cannot recognize this.
Our alarm was also heightened by the atmosphere in the Oval Office during this conversation, which reminded us of the interrogations we endured at the hands of the Security Services and the debates in Communist courts. Prosecutors and judges, acting on behalf of the all-powerful communist political police, would explain to us that they held all the power while we held none. They demanded that we cease our activities, arguing that thousands of innocent people suffered because of us. They stripped us of our freedoms and civil rights because we refused to cooperate with the government or express gratitude for our oppression. We are shocked that President Volodymyr Zelensky was treated in the same manner.
The history of the 20th century shows that whenever the United States sought to distance itself from democratic values and its European allies, it ultimately became a threat to itself. President Woodrow Wilson understood this when he decided in 1917 that the United States must join World War I. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt understood this when, after the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, he resolved that the war to defend America must be fought not only in the Pacific but also in Europe, in alliance with the nations under attack by the Third Reich.
We remember that without President Ronald Reagan and America’s financial commitment, the collapse of the Soviet empire would not have been possible. President Reagan recognized that millions of enslaved people suffered in Soviet russia and the countries it had subjugated, including thousands of political prisoners who paid for their defense of democratic values with their freedom. His greatness lay, among other things, in his unwavering decision to call the USSR an “Empire of Evil” and to fight it decisively. We won, and today, the statue of President Ronald Reagan stands in Warsaw, facing the U.S. Embassy.
Mr. President, material aid—military and financial—can never be equated with the blood shed in the name of Ukraine’s independence and the freedom of Europe and the entire free world. Human life is priceless; its value cannot be measured in money. Gratitude is due to those who sacrifice their blood and their freedom. This is self-evident to us, the people of Solidarity, former political prisoners of the communist regime under Soviet russia.
We call on the United States to uphold the guarantees made alongside Great Britain in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which established a direct obligation to defend Ukraine’s territorial integrity in exchange for its relinquishment of nuclear weapons. These guarantees are unconditional—there is no mention of treating such assistance as an economic transaction.
Signed,
Lech Wałęsa, former political prisoner, President of Poland
"If not for Ukraine standing in front of Russia, Russian tanks would already be in Poland".
Spot on. Ukrainians could've left for Paris to live the good life. Yet they still hold the line for Europe after these four brutal years! We owe them everything
After 3 days in which Ukrainian Forces destroyed Russia's "elite" 76th Air-Assault Division, yet another humiliation awaits the Russian dictator as President Zelensky stands at Kupiansk, the very town that Russian propaganda told world was theirs, just a week ago.
@KremlinRussia_E
🇺🇦 The leader of the free world leads from the front. In this case, literally. Meanwhile, Putin hides and orders more bombings of Ukrainian civilians and free world leaders dither over the money of the terrorist dictator that’s attacking Europe.
Putin sits in Moscow claiming that his armies have taken a town that the Ukrainian president is personally visiting. There are cowardly tyrants and there are courageous elected leaders and it is good to know the difference.

I spoke with the President of Finland earlier today – @alexstubb and I continue our coordination. I briefed him on our delegation’s work yesterday in the United States – everything was very constructive. There are some tough issues that still have to be worked through. Our representatives will return to Europe in the coming days, and after speaking with them and receiving a full report on how the negotiations went, we will decide on our further activities. And for today, we have talks planned with our friends in Europe. It will be a very substantive day. Diplomacy, defense, energy – the priorities are clear. I thank everyone who is helping!
Long overdue of course, if it happens. At this point, Putin stops reading when he sees, "Europe is considering" and "the EU is discussing". Lack of credible deterrence means only action will accomplish anything now.
🚨🇩🇪 Germany Warns: The World Is Changing And MAGA America No Longer Understands Any Of It
Germany issued a stark warning this week, saying alliances are shifting so fast that Europe must rethink its entire security strategy. Behind the scenes, officials say the biggest worry is not Russia, but a Russia/MAGA-led USA that no longer understands the basics of the world.
European diplomats are openly baffled. Trump and MAGA ran an entire campaign on fear of socialists and communists taking over America yet the same movement now cheers for Russia built on exactly that tradition, simply because they forgot who is who.
“It is impossible to rely on a partner who warns about communism at breakfast and waves at it by lunchtime,” one EU official said. “We’re not dealing with strategy anymore. We’re dealing with people who failed history class and never caught up.”
According to European analysts, the message to the US is simple: the world is changing rapidly, and MAGA is lost.
