Until recently, Kramatorsk was a city far from the front lines, full of life.
Was…
60,000 people once called this city home.
russia is nothing but death and destruction.
A historic video of America’s betrayal – November 22, 1994.
The U.S. President thanks Ukraine for giving up its nuclear weapons. In return, the U.S. promises to stand by Ukraine’s side to safeguard its independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.
But instead of defending Ukraine, Trump and his administration have sided with the aggressor against Ukraine.
Trump just waived all of the sanctions on Russia provided for in the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia Act, just as I and others warned he would.
Trump’s latest surrender to Putin again betrays our Ukrainian partners and defies clear congressional intent of legislation designed to punish Russia for its illegal war of aggression.
Trump has proven he will twist this law and abuse the powers it conferred on him, and while he has let the tariff powers lie for the moment, the law as written also empowers Trump to weaponize new trade authorities against our allies and trading partners.
Congress must fix this flawed law to stop Trump from capitulating to Putin and ensure that it truly supports Ukraine.
This early morning, filthy russia attacked a residential area in Zaporizhzhia😡! So far it is known about two injured CIVILIANS 😡! Residential buildings, civilian infrastructure and cars were damaged or completely destroyed 😞! @IntlCrimCourt
Trump Signs Order Exempting Russia From Sanctions Legislation
Trump waived key Russia-related US sanctions and tariffs days before they were to take effect under a law he signed last month, including penalties for buying its oil and gas.

Saturday morning in Ukraine.
Zaporizhzhia is under a massive russian attack.
Ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, drones. The city is under relentless fire.
Residential neighborhoods are being hit. Pure terror.
An important study that deserves to be shared as widely as possible within the English-speaking world.
Last night, our friends at the *Militarnyi* portal published an English-language article containing a technical analysis of the onboard computer from a Russian jet-powered drone—the "Geran-4."
Of the 105 components identified, 80 come from American companies; Texas Instruments alone (including components from National Semiconductor, which was acquired by TI in 2011) accounts for 58.1% of the total.
In short: this points to a systemic reliance on Western electronics in this Russian attack drone.
For this reason, we have created a separate English-language "quote tweet" with commentary, in which we have tagged @TXInstruments directly.
We would appreciate it if you could share this post. 😉
Please tag journalists, American politicians, experts, and organizations involved in sanctions and export controls in the comments.
Our experience in disseminating such investigations shows that it is crucial to bring these findings to light beyond the Ukrainian "information bubble." They need to be seen by the manufacturers themselves, as well as by journalists, analysts, sanctions experts, American policymakers, and export control specialists.
Regardless of the current policy of the White House, the United States is much more than just a single administration or a single president. They include Congress, the media, industry experts, manufacturers, and government institutions—all of whom can raise the question of how American electronics end up in Russian attack drones on such a large scale. Therefore, such revelations must continue.

American technology is helping russia build missiles to kill Ukrainians.
155 of the 197 components in russia’s Kinzhal missile are American-made.

The UK will supply Ukraine with a new package of Storm Shadow cruise missiles in the coming weeks -Bloomberg
The missiles will be used to hit Russian assets targeting Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
President of the USA Bill Clinton in 1994:
"Thanks to the Ukrainian parliament, you are removing the threat of nuclear power and laying the groundwork for an era of peace with your neighbours. I salute the courage you have shown. America will stand with you to support your independence, your territorial integrity, and your reforms. We are bound together by dedication to peace."
