У цьому житті багато речей потрібно пояснювати. І це стосується як протесту, так і кадрових рішень, від яких залежить майбутнє країни.

Я підтримую Михайла Федорова і вважаю, що нам усім дуже пощастило, коли він погодився прийти в уряд і взяти на себе відповідальність перед людьми, які, по суті, майже нікому не довіряють.

Назвати правильними чи хибними кадрові рішення я не буду, бо просто не розумію, чому вони були ухвалені. І саме в цьому, на мою думку, проблема.

Але я точно розумію інше: зараз дуже важливо не втратити не лише Михайла, а й усю його команду, як і багатьох інших людей, які працювали в уряді. Це може звучати неочевидно, але сильні фахівці не стоять у черзі, щоб піти на державну службу.

Саме тому я підтримую цей протест. Не лізу на сцену. І дуже пишаюся нашою молоддю.

І окрема подяка військовим, які сьогодні не мовчать. Ви — сила💪

Як вам кадрові зміни?

An Iranian man left this comment on my YouTube channel. This is without a doubt the single best explanation of the reality facing Iranian people today👇

"As an Iranian, I can tell you the situation is no longer just political—it's existential. We are trapped between two collapsing structures: one internal, one external. On one hand, we face a deeply dysfunctional government, led by the Supreme Leader and the Islamic Republic’s unelected institutions.

Decades of economic mismanagement, suppression of dissent, and brutal ideological control have alienated multiple generations. No one believes in reform anymore—because every attempt has either been co-opted or crushed. But here's the paradox: We are also terrified of regime collapse—because we've watched the aftermath of Western intervention in countries like Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Afghanistan. Each was promised freedom; each descended into chaos, civil war, or foreign occupation.

So no, we don't trust the U.S. or Israel. Not because we support our regime—but because we know how imperial powers treat ‘liberated’ nations in the Middle East.

Freedom, in their language, often means vacuum, fire, and permanent instability. Right now, many Iranians live with three truths at once: The Islamic Republic is morally and politically bankrupt. The alternatives offered by foreign actors are not liberation—they’re collapse.

A bad government is survivable. No government is not. We are not silent because we agree. We are cautious because we’ve learned—too well—what happens when superpowers decide to "help." In a sentence: Iran is a nation held hostage by its own regime, but haunted by the fate of its neighbors. We are stuck in a house we hate, surrounded by fires we fear more."

BREAKING: Under pressure from the White House and State Department, USA House (a church acting as the official US pavilion) is now denying entry to @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom to speak with media after Fortune — the official media partner — invited him to speak.

I’m an original sponsor of the bill to impose the toughest possible sanctions on Russia. We will also start a discharge petition in January to force a vote on the floor. Congress must act now. We cannot wait for the White House to do the right thing here.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

All true, but focusing on Witkoff misses the big picture in these so-called peace plan revelations. It’s what many of us have said since January: The Trump family & team are allied with Russia against Ukraine and Europe for profit, and there are no US national interests involved.

Meet Piotr Szczerek, the hero who snatched a hat from a kid on live TV at the US Open.

He’s a millionaire CEO of a private company, and now he’s bravely threatening to sue anyone who dares to call him a “greedy POS” or anything equally hurtful.

So whatever you do, definitely don’t share this post. Just quietly warn your close friends not to call him mean names. Wouldn’t want to hurt his millionaire feelings.

While the whole world waits for putin to agree to negotiations, in Kyiv people trapped under the rubble after Russia’s attack are begging for help.

Can you possibly trust a President who can't spell, has serious problems with grammar, and capitalizes at random? I think not. A President who can't write can't think. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The only guarantee of security for Ukraine is the restoration of its nuclear arsenal.

Just imagine — you’re standing next to a person who has killed thousands of civilians, started the largest war in decades, most likely wants to seize your country, who is a most violent authoritarian tyrant

And you’re standing there smiling next to them — it’s embarrassing

[Gabrielius Landsbergis🇱🇹 @GLandsbergis]

If Ukraine has no choice but to accept “de facto” occupation — that’s because WE failed.

Not because Ukrainians failed, not because some mysterious “shit happened”, but because for years we ignored all the warnings, repeated all the mistakes of history, kicked the can down the road and refused to do what it takes to defend the rules and principles that enable sustainable peace and prosperity. This is on us.

We are the architects of this de facto defeat, so now we are trying to pretend it came out of nowhere and we did the best we could to stop it. In a spectacular display of unbombed westsplaining, Mark Rutte is suggesting that everything will be OK in the long run, like it was OK in the Baltic States after decades of de facto occupation by jolly old Uncle Joe Stalin.

Well, I have shrugged off a lot of dumb hot takes about my country over the last few years, but this one is literally sickening. Rutte is revealing that the latest genius 5D chess move to save Ukraine is to casually throw millions of people into a black hole of oppression, torture, rape, kidnapping, murder and destruction of national identity — “de facto, but not de jure”.

And the proponents of this plan will keep a straight face while they cite the misery of the occupation of the Baltic States as a shining example that Ukraine should happily walk into.

In his FT column, Gideon Rachman says little to fill the gap in Rutte’s world view:
"The Soviet Union’s annexation of the Baltic states after 1940 was never legally recognised by the US and most European countries. But it was a fact of life, until, eventually, the Baltic states regained their independence."

Yikes, let’s unpack that.
The occupation wasn’t “a fact of life”, it was a fact of death.
“Eventually” was after decades of deportations, killing, grinding terror and violent attempts to turn everybody into russians.
“Regained their independence” was being crushed under Gorbachev’s tanks while western leaders pleaded with us to give up our fight for freedom.

So… this is the path to peace we are supposed to offer to Ukraine with a smile? These are the glorious new security guarantees that will erase the shame of the Budapest Agreement and allow Ukrainians to have faith in the future?

There are even US Ambassadors talking about how countries can “earn” certain territories and therefore presumably “deserve” them. Would it be paranoid of me to wonder if we just opened the door for Russia to “earn” Narva and Vilnius “de facto”?

Путин — ебаный стратегический дебил, превративший Россию в китайскую подстилку и бензоколонку. Его "трёхдневная хуйня" стала кровавым пиздецом с 500к+ трупами, санкциями, душат экономику, и НАТО, которое раздулось вдвое. Хотел империи — получил изоляцию и позор. Факты: полный провал, как сказал Стубб.

Міністр національної єдності України Олексій Чернишов не повернувся з офіційного закордонного відрядження, попри вручення підозр його колишнім підлеглим.

Чернишов дистанційно взяв участь у своєму форумі.

Поїздка чиновника збіглася з моментом, коли НАБУ та САП оголосили про підозри кільком його колишнім підлеглим із Міністерства регіонального розвитку та НАК «Нафтогаз України» у справі по корупції. Сам Чернишов тоді вже перебував за кордоном.

Якщо не повернеться, то це повний провал кадрової політики.
