So, today is the day 🇺🇸

No matter what tomorrow brings, 🇺🇦Ukraine will carry on. 

Over the last three years of the war, let alone the last decade, this country has achieved things few would have ever believed.

It’s been fighting a full-scale war against one of the largest war machines in human history, an adversary that has no bounds in its dishonor, brutality, hatred, lies, arrogance, and unspeakable lust for absolute power. 

Ukraine is indeed fighting a fight many would never sustain and is getting far less respect than it truly deserves in the face of history. 

Heaven knows Ukraine has come through extraordinary things to, once again, win and defend its independence from the empire.

It has been seeing horrifying rains of Russian missiles trying to plunge its people into the dark cold in the dead of the winter.

It has seen fields of death of Bakhmut filled with fragments of dead bodies as far as the eye can see. It defeated the empire at its capital and made almighty Russia leave Kherson.

It attacked the Kremlin, devastated Russian air bases, and set multiple Russian oil depots on fire with simple weapons of its own making.

Without having a single major warship, it defeated Russia’s Black Sea fleet and sank its flagship, which had not happened to Russia since 1905.

Ukraine destroyed well over 3,000 Russian tanks and made Vladimir Putin go begging to China, Iran, and North Korea for weapons.

Ukraine mastered scores of advanced Western weapons many believed it could never use, and it opened a new chapter in modern warfare, having as little as it managed to get from the faint-hearted West.

Outnumbered and outgunned, it has occupied part of Russia’s home territory for three months, and it stands against the entire Axis of dictatorial regimes that are now threatening the entire free world. 

In just 2 weeks, there will be the 1,000th day of the war in which Kyiv was supposed to fall within 72 hours max.

Lastly, Ukraine managed to fulfill a World War I-scale mobilization, which is absurdly incompatible with the world of the 21st century. Through tears and pain, setbacks, and mistakes, Ukraine nonetheless carries on.

Ukraine has won its absolute right to life in freedom and pursuit of happiness on the scorched battlefields of the worst European war of aggression since Adolf Hitler. 

All this time, there has never been any shortage of dishonest dictatorial bootlickers, acid tongues, and shameless demagogues who were so quick to spit on Ukraine’s dramatic fight for survival. 

But there have been quite a lot of truthful friends, to whom we are sincerely grateful and with whom we will continue working.

So, no matter what tomorrow brings, there will be a new day and new hope.

Had we not been doing what was right against all odds, Ukraine would be dead and long gone now.

Happy Guy Fawkes Day America. May you be as successful ridding your country of treasonous plotters as we once were.

Tonight on Twitter will be a sea of misinformation driven by the owner of Twitter who is all in for Trump.

Just be very well aware of that.

1. The more they try to rile their base about ‘election integrity’ the more you know we have an edge!
2. Know the lines are long, but Paul Rudd is coming with water!
3. If you’re young in Nevada and maybe never signed anything with a pen before voting today pick up your phone - they could be calling to confirm your vote!

Turnout. Gender gap. Undecideds. All breaking her way.

[God @TheTweetOfGod]

In an ideal scenario the President of the United States and the worst person in the world would be two different people.

[Jessica Tarlov @JessicaTarlov]

I’m so excited! And so scared.
Philly turnout. Iowa women. Nevadan Independents. College kids!
But really just sooooo impressed with the Harris campaign operation - working their butts off until the end!

Note Republican party failed in trying to exclude many absentee ballots in Georgia. Trump-appointed federal Judge excoriates: “The plaintiffs are patently inviting me to tip the scales of this election by discriminating against citizens less likely to vote for their candidate.”

This is the Rule of Law in action.

Trump and his cult will do everything they can to keep you from voting. They are laying the groundwork to declare a false victory again, because they want you to think it’s over. An election is never over until every vote is counted, so make your vote count. Stay in line, cast your vote, and call 866-OUR-VOTE if you or anyone else is being prevented from voting.

🚨URGENT🚨Getting reports people are being turned away to vote when their ID address doesn't match on file address - that is NOT correct! The addresses don't have to match. If you or someone you know runs into this, tell them to insist on filling out a provisional ballot.

[Jack Hopkins @thejackhopkins]

Donald Trump is speaking now. He sounds and looks like a man who has been told by his team: You’re going to lose this election.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Polls are still open, folks.

Don’t sit this election out. @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz are ready to serve on Day One.

Confirm your polling place and go vote: https://t.co/Hy8C4mIL2M.

Here’s to @JoeBiden. He put country and Constitution above party and personal power and glory. We owe him an enormous debt.
