“Once you join, you have no politics. You’re property.”
In a powerful short film, young soldiers talk about the Iraq war as it is being waged. Two decades later, they reflect on their experiences. https://t.co/K0heAH0Bk2
Brian Streem went to NYU film school. Then he accidentally ended up on the front lines of the drone war in Ukraine — and built what the defense primes couldn't. https://t.co/z17OEYHxlW
Russians hit workers in Kherson who repair a roof
This is a region with Russian speaking Ukrainians
Putin, and Witkoff recently, claim that Kherson wants to be Russian
Here is how Russia charms Ukrainians to love it
🚨🚨🚨6 kids (7 mo - 14 y.o.), their parents and grandma lived in a basement due to Russian drones and artillery strikes.
Evacuation was possible only at night in an armored vehicle, w/EW units.
Driving through the fields.
Watch it.

By far the largest attack of the new Trump era
Ukrainian air defense shot down 25 cruise missiles Kh-101, 8 cruise missiles Kaliber, 1 Kh-59/69 guided aviation missiles, 100 strike drones. In total Russia launched 35 Kh-101 missiles, 8 Kaliber cruise missiles, 3 ballistic missiles Iskander-M, 4 S-300 missiles, 8 Kh-59/69 missiles https://t.co/cIDPkZdfWb
Thanks to U.S. intelligence, all Ukrainians receive alerts on their phone when Russia is launching an air strike like this.
The @WhiteHouse stopped sharing that intelligence.
Why is the Trump administration letting Putin get away with butchering civilians?
I wrote about the increase in anti-Ukraine, pro-Russia rhetoric among right wing podcasters in the U.S. Sad to say, it's just the tip of the iceberg. Even sadder is they influence current U.S. policy on Ukraine. My latest for @KyivIndependent.

When we arrived in Bucha just a day after it was liberated in April of 2022 this is what we found: 8 men executed in an alley with their hands tied behind their backs. Ukrainians have no other choice but to keep fighting because this is what will happen across the nation if they capitulate to Russia. If American abandons Ukraine it will soldier on because a ceasefire with Russia with no security guarantees is no ceasefire at all.
After years of Republicans talking about “freedom,” is there ONE Republican in Congress prepared to stand with Ukraine and democracy?
Or do they ALL agree with Trump that Vladimir Putin, a blood-thirsty dictator, is our ally in this horrific war that he started.
