Came back on here when Russia invaded to watch the sheep & goats being divided 🐑⚖️🐐

@ChrisO_wiki Putin and Malofeev, have you come to plunder? Have you gathered your hordes to loot?

Freezing their hedge funds and property holdings is not enough. Every Russian oligarch now needs to be permanently stripped of all their overseas assets. Thieves.

[Oleksandra Matviichuk @avalaina]

We will discuss how to stop Russian aggression. There is a significant difference between "let's help Ukraine not to lose" and "let's help Ukraine to win quickly". This difference is measured by types of weapons, speed of decisions, and severity of sanctions.

@lau_baldwin @michaelgove @luhc @dannybster Yep, BC systematically and knowingly disempowered, defunded, privatised, disenforced, since the 80s.

[Leo Varadkar @LeoVaradkar]

This is the 21st century, national borders cannot be changed through violence, and democratically elected Governments like #Ukraine should not be overthrown by foreign invasion. We have to draw a line in the sand here and stand with @ZelenskyyUa and Ukraine as long as it takes

[Lo*Ve @LoveBeGoodNow]

@GirkinGirkin Russia declares war on every country that dares sail in international waters. Ridiculous.

[Lo*Ve @LoveBeGoodNow]

@premnsikka Broken link?

[Lo*Ve @LoveBeGoodNow]

@vestager Digital & media law is a mess in the US, few privacy rights, mass exploitation of personal data for electoral manipulation fraud & crime. The last thing the EU should do is sink so low to harmonize to US,who have an obvious interest in pushing EU digital deregulation

👌 decision

Day 510 of my 3 day war. Russia is not trying to cause global hunger so we spent another night attacking grain facilities in Odessa port cos NATO made us.

I remain a master strategist.

[Lo*Ve @LoveBeGoodNow]

@JolyonMaugham They have polled & focus grouped trans-rights with their swing voters and it's obvs a core plank of their electoral strategy, alongside immigration and wokeism. Hence appearing in r-wing media on repeat. Yet the left gets drawn in every time, and follows their narrative & focus.

[Business Ukraine mag @Biz_Ukraine_Mag]

"NATO is not a threat to Russian security - NATO is a threat to Russian foreign policy because it prevents Russia from bullying its neighbors. In other words, NATO enlargement is no more or less provocative than a burglar alarm is to a thief."

❗️Another victory on the legal front. @ECHR_CEDH rejected Russiaʼs lawsuit against Ukraine. Let me remind you that in it 🇷🇺 claimed that 🇺🇦 was allegedly responsible for killings, abductions, forced relocations, interference with the right to vote, restrictions on the use of the 🇷🇺 language, and attacks on 🇷🇺 embassies & consulates, cutting off water to Crimea and the #MH17 catastrophe.

@spectatorindex What is wrong with you Spectator? You realise Twitter polls like this are statistically meaningless on a platform flooded with Russian trolls. And yet you persist in this Putin - loving disinfo 😠

Shameful

[Dimko Zhluktenko 🇺🇦⚔️ @dim0kq]

For God’s sake, russians going to Crimea for vacation now complain about taking the land route instead of the bridge.

BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO DRIVE THROUGH MARIUPOL

AND KIDS DONT LIKE IT

[Lo*Ve @LoveBeGoodNow]

@anneapplebaum The Republican projection of a sense of grievance is perfectly explicable. They need to harness outrage & direct the electorate's anger, or it would be directed at them.

The playbook: control all media, enrage voters, demonise the opposition.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

The US bombed Iraqi forces for a month before advancing on the ground in order to reduce their casualties. Yet the Biden admin wants Ukraine to storm fortified Russian positions without air power and long-range weapons they refuse to provide.

[CSPAN @cspan]

Bill Browder on Switzerland enabling Russia's invasion of Ukraine: "The Swiss government wants to be seen to be doing something, but when it comes to reality, the Swiss government doesn't want to anything because there's such a lot of money to be made off of dirty Russia money."

[Lo*Ve @LoveBeGoodNow]

@rolandmcs The UK Conservative party are trying to engineer the electorate back on side by promoting ignorance. Desperate 😬

[Andrew A. Michta @andrewmichta]

Unless it decouples from #China, Europe is about to repeat the pattern of deindustrialization that scarred the US and its politics over the past 30yrs. This👇by ⁦@MKarnitschnig⁩ via ⁦@POLITICOEurope⁩ should be read by every European politician. https://t.co/x2jWKoIGiV

[Jay in Kyiv @JayinKyiv]

Bodies of dead children still strapped in their seats, Russians in ski masks, it was 9 years ago today.

The civilized world looked away so everyone could continue making money.

Nine years later, Putin's global terror binge continues with another 1,000,000 dead across Ukraine, Syria, Africa.

Get money, yeah.

[Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ @tribelaw]

This extraordinary piece of work shows exactly how Trump can and probably will be charged for the attempted coup and the insurrection
