In Ukraine, Russia has made journalism a weapon of war. https://t.co/4QWobZ9FsH via @nolanwpeterson @DailySignal

The order to disrupt Starshield which allowed Russia to kill numerous civilians in Ukraine came directly from the White House. 🤬 Trump is a traitor and a Russian asset. https://t.co/NFnE8ebT9A

[Gandalv @Microinteracti1]

Trump wanted Canada to remember who the big boy next door was. Instead, Canada looked across the Atlantic and discovered Europe.

And not for a weekend fling. Canada is now the first non-European country inside the EU’s €150 billion defence procurement programme, while the two sides are knitting together trade, defence, energy, technology and critical minerals. That is an increasingly integrated economic and security relationship covering nearly half a billion people.

And here is the bit Trump’s legacy will never escape. Carney has said the old relationship is not coming back.

Imagine explaining this in twenty years.

“You had one of the richest, friendliest countries on Earth sitting literally next door. It bought your products, shared your continent, fought beside you and trusted you. What happened?”

“Well, we threatened it with tariffs.”
And Canada went to Europe. For fuck’s sake.

What an absolutely monumental idiot.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Andrii Melnyk, Ukrainian Ambassador to the UN, speaking at the UN Security Council on Ukrainian Independence Day:

"Day and night, Ukraine, a great European nation, is being brutally destroyed before the eyes of the entire international community by Russian ballistic missiles and killer drones.

And all that the world community seems capable of doing is to convene a meeting of the UN Security Council and at best condemn Russia's war crimes and crimes against humanity being committed on a staggering scale.

And some choose instead to hide behind abstract formulas, avoiding even mentioning Russia - the country that launched this war of extinction against Ukraine and continues to wage it with impunity.

What a disgrace that to this day the UN Security Council has failed to take effective action, to hold Russia to account, and to prevent a daily genocide of the Ukrainian people carried out in plain sight of the world.

It is time to put an end to Russia's abuse of its veto power as a fig leaf, as an excuse for inaction, to stop allowing the aggressor state to hide behind the very privilege it has misused to shield itself from accountability.

We understand that this Council has its own traditions and unwritten rules, a kind of pact of mutual non-aggression, but we can see that this is a road to nowhere. Unless Russia is shown that no one will any longer tolerate this cynical course of prolonging and even escalating the war against Ukraine, while simultaneously shifting blame and spreading lies, these daily deaths of innocent people will weigh on the conscience of this Council.

This also concerns something as basic as human conduct: continuing business as usual, to shake hands with the Russians and behaving as though nothing is happening, discussing routine agenda items as if there were no genocidal war raging in the very heart of Europe is sending an absolutely wrong message. It creates the impression that Russia can continue its terror campaign against Ukraine and its independence without facing any consequences of its criminal actions." - @MelnykAndrij

NO RESPECT. NO SOLIDARITY. NO CONSCIENCE. NO HONOR.

Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner postponed their planned trip to Kyiv because of “heavy Russian airstrikes on the city.”

Meanwhile, Witkoff and Kushner have traveled to Moscow eight times for meetings with Putin. But when it comes to Kyiv, Russian missiles suddenly make the trip too dangerous.

At the same time, presidents and prime ministers from European countries continue traveling to Kyiv despite those very same Russian attacks.

For months, we’ve been told that Witkoff and Kushner are trying to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine. But how can you call yourself an honest mediator when you repeatedly travel to Moscow, sit across the table from Putin and listen to Russia’s demands — yet cannot bring yourself to visit the capital of the country Russia invaded?

You cannot understand this war by visiting Moscow eight times and Kyiv zero.

And there is something especially revealing about being too afraid to visit the victim precisely because the aggressor might bomb you.

European leaders are showing what solidarity looks like.

Washington is showing what cowardice and complacency look like.

[Yasmina @yasminalombaert]

The soft approach has failed. It is time for Europe to stop hiding behind excuses and start shooting down Russian drones that violate their airspace.

As Major General Mick Ryan rightly argues, this would send an unambiguous message to putin that the West will no longer tolerate his constant, destabilising "rubbish".

“These are the kind of things I think the Europeans are going to have to consider, they're also going to have to just shoot down Russian drones, stop this silliness of oh is it an accident or is it not.
If a Russian drone crosses into territory, you've got to shoot it down, and that sends a very unambiguous message to vladimir putin
that we're not putting up with your rubbish anymore.”

[414 Magyar's Birds @414magyarbirds]

Magyar:

We are holding the line at the front, returning pain to the enemy in the swamps. Even when we are silent, we are. To civilians, I wish resilience and composure — the hardest trials still lie ahead.

Between the enemy and us lies not a doctrinal gap, but a civilizational one: from individual agency (which I wish every Ukrainian to preserve) and values, all the way to our attitude toward human life.

Beyond the battlefield, deep in the swamps, we strike the sources that finance and sustain the enemy's war and its weapons production. They, the fuckers, wage massive terror against the civilian population of our Motherland. Innocent people are dying, and they will continue to die. There is no end to it in sight.

The worm will only intensify this strategy of "punishing civilians" — that is obvious. So maintain round-the-clock functional vigilance and composure instead of consuming emotional content and IPSO that only reinforce the exhaustion already present. Personally establish, rehearse, and control your own course of action for the irregular announcement and execution of air strikes.

Steel nerves and an unshakable spirit to all of you. Take care of yourselves and those around you.

And know this — we are striking too, without stopping. We are returning pain to the enemy. This is not a sprint but a marathon with substantial obstacles — a decisive test of endurance.

*I had planned a week-long content detox. Only four days have passed. But I had to say this.

We will stand.
Moscow will fall.

Last night, the largest country wholly within Europe – Ukraine – was attacked by russia and North Korea with hundreds of ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and strike drones.

No country outside Ukraine made any effort to shoot them down or stop them from being launched.

📣A lot of people have been asking me to comment on Fedorov’s recent actions.

In short: Fedorov shot himself in the foot. Whoever advised him on this - his political strategists or whoever thought it was a brilliant move - hit the crossbar.

And yes, elections during wartime are a terrible idea. I’m one of the first people who wants elections. But wanting elections and pretending that holding them in the middle of a full-scale war is sensible are two very different things.

It is not only because elections are prohibited under martial law by Ukrainian legislation (one of those inconvenient little details that our politicians and the Office occasionally prefer not to notice when it gets in the way).

It is also because elections under these conditions would be physically dangerous, logistically chaotic and politically reckless.
Millions of Ukrainians are displaced. Millions are abroad. Soldiers are on the front. Cities are under constant missile and drone attacks. Russia is trying to destroy us and is bombing Ukrainians relentlessly.

This is absolutely not the moment to create a domestic political split, turn the country against itself and give Russia exactly the kind of internal chaos it would love to exploit.

And about the corruption cases that keep surfacing. It is good that they come out. They must come out. But every single time I read another story about what is happening around (and in) the Office of the President (and not only there, not only in political circles) it does not just hurt. It makes me want to throw up.

So the strongest guarantee of Ukraine’s survival right now is unity, functioning institutions and the army that can fight (though few air defence items from our partners would be helpful too). There will be a time for elections. And when that time comes, I absolutely want them. But holding them while Russia is literally trying to wipe us out is not democracy at its finest.

I have a lot more to say about Fedorov’s debut and other questions but after I finish my Master’s dissertation next week. Then I’ll get back to recording videos, be much more active here, and write more for you.

These are defining times for Ukraine, and far beyond Ukraine.

Stay tuned. Keep a cool head. And please, no rose-tinted glasses.🦄

🇺🇸🇺🇸🧐🤔“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…”

Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share.

This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating:

“Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.

A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.

A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.

A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.

A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.

You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth.
More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea.

In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything.
They’re simply too poor to afford bail.

Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening.

Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s.

Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends.

Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years.

Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.

And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster.

And you call Greenland badly governed?

Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment.

‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’

When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?

Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU.

Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU.

Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years.

And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess.

You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy.

So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan.

The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.

And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”
