🇺🇦 Zelensky on Putin: Can you imagine 35,000 Russian losses each month, heavy wounded or killed? Somebody has to stop him.
🎙️ When was the last time you cried?
Zelensky: I will try to do it after our interview… It's always difficult for me when I give orders, and mothers and fathers lose their children. In such moments, I often cry.
💔 Nikopol. Absolute barbarism.
A russian drone murdered an entire family in a deliberate strike on a city street.
Three civilians were killed. One of the victims was a person in a wheelchair.
This is deliberate terror.
This must not be normalized.
What is happening today – the opening of the first cluster in the accession negotiations for Ukraine and Moldova – sends a clear message that Europe’s progress cannot be stopped.
We have worked hard to reach this moment. Over the past years, Ukraine and Moldova have taken important steps together. And it is especially symbolic that I am speaking to you from Chișinău today – on my way to France for the G7 Summit.
Our neighborhood with Moldova is strong. And we support each other, and we are moving toward the EU together – and we will get there together.

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷 A former Israeli intelligence officer is making an explosive claim: Netanyahu could use unseen Epstein material to blow up a U.S.-Iran peace deal.
Ari Ben-Menashe says that if Washington and Tehran move toward a real agreement, Netanyahu will try to sabotage it by releasing Epstein files targeting U.S. government officials, including Trump.
He claims the material would be new and had not been seen publicly before.
Hard to imagine a crazier plot than that.

Allow me a little schadenfreude.
Things are going wonderfully badly for Russia.
Fuel shortages are being reported across the country, including Siberia and the Far East.
In some regions, motorists are limited to purchasing just 20 liters per vehicle.
In others, fuel is not sold into containers at all.
And in the hardest-hit areas, ration coupons have reportedly already been introduced.
This is happening in Russia—the country that was often called a giant gas station.
For now, they are relying on a familiar Soviet-era solution: dilution. Gasoline is reportedly being watered down to increase volume at the expense of quality. The idea is simple: provide fuel at any cost—the cost being borne by the public, of course. Will engines sputter and struggle? Perhaps. But without fuel, people might become even more restless. And restless Russians are something Putin cannot afford.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian strikes continue to target Russian oil infrastructure. The Moscow refinery has reportedly been hit again, producing a towering blaze visible across the city. That refinery once supplied a significant share of Moscow's gasoline, diesel fuel, and aviation kerosene. What does it supply now? Smoke and soot.
And then there's Trump, meeting with Zelenskyy and exchanging pleasantries.
Making eyes at him, even.
How should that be interpreted? Has Trump forgotten Anchorage? Did he lose interest and move on?
In short, according to the author, everything is going badly for Putin.
His age is catching up with him, his health appears poor, he is constantly coughing, the public seems unreliable, and the military still struggles with objectives that were supposed to be achieved long ago.
So now the author half-jokingly wonders what Putin will do next.
Invade Cuba? No, that's Trump in this joke.
A disappointed Trump invades Cuba, while Putin invades... Russia's own Belgorod region. Time to shake things up there, since they keep looking toward Ukraine.
As for Ukraine, the conclusion is simple:
Ukraine should just keep doing what it is doing.
Putin is rotten, and in the author's view, he will not endure.
Meanwhile.....The New York Times is reporting that Trump is plotting to suspend Habeas Corpus, which would effectively end the Constitution.....
But I digress.....
She sent her daughter abroad and went to war alongside her husband.
They knew they might never return.
Before deploying to the front, they completed all the necessary legal paperwork to ensure that, if both of them were killed, their daughter would not be left without a guardian.
Thus began the final journey that Tetiana Fesenko and Volodymyr Fesenko would take together.
Their story sounds like the plot of a movie. They met by chance. They did not become a couple immediately. Life took them in different directions. But fate gave them a second chance.
They married, raised their daughter Yelyzaveta, traveled across Ukraine, went fishing together, and built a simple family happiness.
Then came the full-scale war.
On February 24, 2022, they made a choice that would change everything.
Tetiana, whose callsign was "Murka," did not stay at home. She took up arms and stood shoulder to shoulder with her husband. Together they defended the Kyiv region, participated in the liberation of the Kharkiv region, and fought in some of the most difficult sectors of the front.
Their comrades remember Murka as someone who was always first to move forward—smiling, stubborn, and fearless.
On March 5, 2023, in the Bakhmut sector, a Russian shell struck the trench where Tetiana was positioned.
Volodymyr suffered a severe concussion.
The last thing he saw before the explosion was his wife's blown kiss.
When he regained consciousness, he crawled toward her.
Then, together with fellow soldiers, he carried his beloved wife for more than two kilometers under enemy fire to an evacuation point.
Until the very end, he believed he could save her.
He could not.
Tetiana was only 30 years old.
Today, her daughter is growing up with the memory of a heroic mother.
And Volodymyr lives with a pain that words cannot measure.
Murka's story is not only about war.
It is about a love that proved stronger than fear.
It is about a husband and wife who consciously chose to defend their country.
And it is about a woman who remained beside the man she loved—and beside the Ukraine she defended—until her final breath.
Eternal memory to Tetiana Fesenko.
🇺🇦 Heroes never die.
84% of Americans, Bernie Sanders, and Thomas Massie agree. Don’t arm Israel unconditionally.
Also, don’t merge our military technology and supply chains with Israel’s… or any other country’s. I’ve submitted an amendment to strip section 224 (retitled section 219) from the NDAA.
We have a 92 year old Senator Chuck Grassley shaping our judiciary and Justice Department for an 80 year old president. Neither one of these men will have to live in this world they are making.
Here is a montage of Trump promising his ballroom won't cost taxpayers any money, despite new reports that taxpayers will be paying for half of the $600M project
Congress must permanently defund President Trump's corrupt $1.8 billion settlement with himself, a complete fraud on the court and on our country. Not one dollar of taxpayer money can go to insurrectionists, Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. Read Section IV of the 14th Amendment and the Domestic Emoluments Clause, Mr. President. You get nothing beyond your salary from the taxpayers, much less for violent insurrection.
The Iran deal was signed on Sunday. The fact that the trump Administration hasn’t released the deal language and instead is having @JDVance try to spin the deal in advance tells you all you need to know.
More from Moscow 🔥🔥🔥🔥
15km to the Kremlin.
The refinery supplies up to 40% of Moscow's fuel market and about 70% of Moscow and the region's gasoline needs.
