This man was dead weight, hanging high above the ground after touching a high-voltage line. His coworker climbed up, held him in place, gave him mouth-to-mouth. Randall Champion survived—and lived another 35 years. Rocco Morabito’s photo, “The Kiss of Life,” won the Pulitzer Prize. True heroism.

I was electrocuted, beaten, stabbed in the leg and starved after being captured while defending my home and family in Mariupol. We held back Putin’s invasion for several weeks while Russia slaughtered over 25,000 predominantly Russian speaking Ukrainians including women and children.

Short, concise, to the point and addressing universally agreed upon facts. Never thought I’d say this but this is a good manifesto.
