The UN's coffin doesn't have room for any more nails.
I can't believe it, but Russia not only continues to be in the UN but will also chair the Security Council this month. Peskov has already given an interview on what Russia plans to do this month: "Russia, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, remains faithful to its

Putin's absurd "ceasefire" statements are tests. A test of loyalty for his sycophants and an IQ test for everyone else. Don't be stupid.
Putin demands that Ukraine transfers to Russia four regions, including a 300,000 city of Kherson and 700,000 Zaporizhzhya as a “precondition” to “peace talks”. This man is delusional, and those in the West who speak of “negotiations” or “cease fire” are enemies of the free world.

Ok, after years of warnings were ignored and hearing "Garry, you were right!" all damn day today, I'll repeat what I said in 2014: Stop telling me I was right and listen to what I'm saying now. My recommendations follow: 1/5

The U.S. has designated Iran a terrorist state, but not Russia. Why? #Hypocrisy

Poland’s Foreign Minister @radeksikorski: “Bravo Israel for repelling a huge Iranian aerial assault. Israel’s anti-missile capabilities should be strengthened & similar defences should be sent to Ukraine. @SpeakerJohnson, please let the House vote on the 🇮🇱&🇺🇦 support bill.”

It seems beyond question now that we can successfully shoot down deadly missiles and drones in order to protect an ally—even one who is not in NATO. We did it for Israel. We must do it for Ukraine.

Putin's MAGA only needs Congress to block Ukraine aid for 4 more days before yet ANOTHER congressional vacation lets Russians continue to advance deeper into the country and massacre the population with missiles. Mike Johnson is now responsible for thousands of deaths and it's

My thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes! As a "man who has everything," and blessed to be safe and sound with my family today, I will ask only for cash. Specifically, seize and send the over $300 billion in Russian assets to aid and rebuild Ukraine now! 🇺🇦🎂

I just received this message from a friend in Ukraine… “Here in Ukraine it seems like the US abandoned us. The US is proclaiming they are for democratic principles but in reality they do not support now the only country that is really fighting for those principles. Hard to see.”

Putin's track record is clear. If he cannot control something, he will destroy it. Ukrainians are not willing to die quietly under a Russian regime of slavery and torture, so Putin and his partners in Iran, North Korea, and China will obliterate the country unless stopped.

There is money available in Europe NOW to buy at least 2 Patriot systems for Ukraine with about 750 missiles. Enough to protect Kyiv and Odesa from air attacks. This is 5.2bln Euro PROFITS earned by Belgian institution Euroclear in 2022-2023 at frozen russian souvereign assets
This money could have saved the Kyiv energy system today. But Belgian Euroclear thinks they are more exposed to the risks than we Ukrainians slaughtered by russia

Since 2014, for 8 years before the big war, the Kremlin used Crimea as its 'lab' to set up the system of repression, detention centers, and children's indocrination. We underestimated it. Our new story for @VanityFair providing evidence of war crimes https://t.co/LR6upvf62v

Thank you @SpeakerPelosi
Ukrainians are fighting for their Democracy — and ours. But the House vote is held up by the Putin Caucus in the Republican party who are threatening the speaker. We can’t let them stop the will of the People’s House. What are we there for? We're there to do a job not keep a job!

Allow a vote on aid to Ukraine. Provide Patriot air defense systems now. Stop rewarding Putin's aggression.
Russia launched another massive attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure overnight It targeted power plants in 5 regions from Lviv to Kharkiv, which is bearing the brunt All the talk here is of the urgent need for air defence systems to protect these places, protect the power

Very insightful points from General Cavoli's statement today: - Ukraine cannot sustain this fight alone. The United States, our allies, and partners must continue to provide Ukraine with munitions, weapons, and materiel. 1/14
