1/ Russia is developing the capability to launch tens of thousands of kamikaze drones against European cities such as Paris, says a Russian drone developer. He describes heavy long-range drones such as the Iranian Shahed and Russian Geran as "a new weapon of deterrence". ⬇️

“Russia will never stop destroying anything better than itself — anything that is progressing.” Please take a few minutes to listen to Kateryna Polishchuk, a brave defender of Azovstal, known to much of the world by her callsign, “Ptashka.”

Why is our FBI Director in Russia while Russia is attacking Ukraine and other targets in Europe supported by our Unitary Executive nee President and his election funder/fixer Elon Musk? At what point does betraying our allies and getting rich from our enemies become treason?

Listen America, Ukraine gave up their nukes and we promised protection. Putin is pure evil & a true war criminal. Diesel is high because of the Gulf, not Russia. And Russia can't refine their petrol properly. 25 47 right the f to prison.

It's already been said many times that the U.S., under President Donald Trump, was turning its back on Ukraine. But the past few days show something worse than abandonment: Trump is now actively helping Russia win the war.

Let’s be clear about what’s happening here: Ukraine is being threatened with starlink removal and intel being cut off for literally fighting back and defending itself. For nearly 5 years the west has been trying to get Ukraine to hold back. Utterly pathetic.

I took my son for a walk this morning. Beautiful, peaceful, safe. In Ukraine, parents have to worry about Russian drones targeting their children The only difference between us is where we were born. We should be helping Ukraine defeat Putin. Instead, Trump is giving Russia another lifeline.

Getting dinosaur juice from the Middle East wasn’t bad enough  now it’s Russia. North Korea is next. fuckingFuckingFuckFuck moron.

Treasoners do what treasoners do. And we do have the treasoniest treasoner ever. Thank you for your attention to this matter, now put him in prison.

"As so many times before, it will all come down to the indecisiveness of Ukraine's allies and their willingness to actually pressure Russia and provide Ukraine with the military support it needs."

Ukrainian children unlawfully taken from occupied Ukraine. Forcibly transferred to Russia. Separated from their country and identity. ‘Rescue’ is the Kremlin’s word. War crime is the legal category.

Bald Eagle 🦅 courtship cartwheel display involves a male and female eagle flying into the thermos where they grasp talons then glide in dramatic fashion back down, then break apart when they're nearing the ground. Afterwards they go to the nest to mate. They are monogamous

The Ukrainian military is one of the most innovative fighting forces on earth, and its people are even more remarkable. That's exactly why our commitment to them matters more than ever. I review my full trip at the link below in the comments, give it a listen and a read!
