It was never about “Russian speakers.”
Only about destruction and domination.

People are still there.

Trump’s billionaire allies will now own CNN, Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets.

They also control X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch.

They control the AI you're integrating into your lives, the algorithms feeding you content, and your personal data you've given up for access.

This is all by design to manipulate and surveil us, and we’re not talking enough about it.

Pay attention.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

Anthropic didn't want their AI tech used for surveillance on Americans or autonomous weapons strikes. Guess what the Trump administration did? Threatened them and then cut off all work with the federal government. This is dumb and dangerous.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

This is a flashing red siren for anyone who cares about keeping America safe and free.

The Trump administration wants to use A.I. to spy on Americans without a warrant and to give A.I. power to make life and death decisions without humans involved.

That would put our Constitutional rights and our lives in the hands of unaccountable AI systems.

BREAKING: Morgan Freeman just attacked Trump on Live Television:

"We have somebody sitting in the WH who is leading us down a sh-thole. I can’t personally understand how a convicted felon gets to be president."

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

This is incendiary weapon used against civilians in Donbas from russians. It’s a war crime to use this in a city. It’s not targeted and is meant for battlefields. Absolutely sick behaviour from a depraved nation.

Robert De Niro: “We all love our country. I choke on that phrase. Can you love a country where our neighbors are shot down in the streets by masked government thugs? Can you love a country that denies healthcare for tens of millions of our fellow citizens? Can you love a country that trashes our economy to give tax breaks to its billionaire cronies? Can you love a country that pardons violent criminals and protects pedophiles? I feel betrayed by my country. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but it does have to return to the values that gave us our strength and humanity”

Today, President Zelenskyy signed the decree awarding my friend Vlad Seniuk the title Hero of Ukraine.

It is the highest honor our country can give.

And yet, no award can replace a husband.
No medal can hug two little daughters goodnight.
No decree can heal a wife’s broken heart.

Vlad volunteered from the very first days of the full-scale invasion. He could have stepped away. He was eligible to be demobilized. He had already given more than enough.

But before returning to his final mission, he said: “If not me, then who? I am going there for all of you.”

On that mission, a russian drone struck his vehicle. The main impact fell on Vlad. His three brothers-in-arms survived.

He did not.

Vlad came from a family of heroes.
His father was killed defending Ukraine.
His uncle was killed in this war.
And now Vlad himself has laid down his life.

He lived what Christ said: “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” (John 15:13)

Today, Ukraine calls him a Hero.

But those of us who knew him already knew that.

Eternal memory.
Glory to Ukraine.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

How about some new sanctions on Russia instead of on Minnesota?

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

No one who is at all concerned with the national security of the United States can possibly support Trump. This is simply a hideous betrayal of the country and its future in exchange for a bribe.

[Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal]

For four years, the Ukrainian people have fought against Putin’s murderous invasion with unstoppable bravery. As Ukrainians fight against Russian inhumanity & brutal destruction, we must match their courage with action.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Massive Russian attack on Ukraine tonight.

Residential buildings and civilian infrastructure damaged.

More and more Russian war crimes.

[Gandalv @Microinteracti1]

They stood up for a lie.

When Trump said, “The tariffs are paid for by foreign countries,” they rose and applauded.

They know the data. About 96 percent of tariff costs are paid by American importers and consumers. You. Businesses. Higher prices.

And still they clap.👏

[Richard Woodruff 🇺🇦 @frontlinekit]

Goosebumps! 4 years of pure strength from Ukraine.

Thank you for defending all of Europe, we owe you everything.

If Ukraine fell 4 years ago, Putin right now would be launching his next invasion into the Baltics, into Moldova, into Poland, Ukraine saved us from WW3. Heroes.

[Giorgi Revishvili @revishvilig]

There have been many defining moments in the course of the Russia–Ukraine war.

But I believe the true spark that ignited Ukraine’s heroic resistance was Zelenskyy’s decision not to flee Kyiv - to “ask for ammunition, not a ride,” to remain in the capital, and to speak directly to Ukrainians through daily video addresses that gave the nation hope.

Had he fled, the trajectory of the war would have been fundamentally different.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

Howard Buffett on Ukraine: We can't wait for the United States. We can't stand by while Putin and his Russian military attack a sovereign country that believes in freedom and democracy and they're doing everything in the world to defend it.

How do you stand by and not help them defend themselves?

Europe has this opportunity to stand up and say: 'The United States, you can do whatever you want. But as a unified European group of countries, we are going to stand up and do the right thing and do what we need to do.'

[Roman Sheremeta 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @rshereme]

This video breaks my heart. It was taken at the beginning of the russian invasion in 2022. A Ukrainian boy was separated from his family at the boarder.

Russia is a terrorist state.

[Rutger Bregman @rcbregman]

This is the most important thing happening in the world right now.

The administration wants killer drones + mass surveillance of Americans.

Anthropic refuses to build it. While most tech companies fall in line, they are prepared to pay the price for their principles.

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

Today is the four year anniversary of the barbaric full scale invasion against the peaceful people of Ukraine.

Peaceful, until roused to defend themselves….

Slava Ukrainii

No thanks. We in Denmark/Greenland have excellent, free hospital care. 📚But we’ll be pleased to send back a library ship! Loaded with works by Locke and Montesquieu explaining the philosophy behind the Constitution, and also some banned books like Harry Potter and The Handmaid’s tale. ‘Books on the ground’ urgently needed.
