One of my favorite facts: In 1975 solar panels cost $115 per watt, which means it would have cost $1 million to put solar panels on your roof. Today, you can buy solar panels for less than $0.25 per watt.

With today’s mass arrests in Georgia, the parallels with Ukraine’s 2014 uprising are striking. In both cases, the people’s aspirations to join Europe are crushed by a pro-Russian leader who abruptly abandons negotiations for EU integration But there is a puzzle 1/

✊ Georgians fighting to determine their own future instead of having it dictated by Moscow and oligarchs. I’m sure the Kremlin apologists would tell them to go peacefully into oppression like they do with Ukraine.
OMG look at this force of the water cannon!!! And somehow they have endless supplies too. But also look at people going back towards the police in brief episodes that they run out of water! #GeorgiaProtests The cannons are mixed with pepper spray too!!!

Finland is resolute against Russia because they still remember what it was like to defend their country from an overwhelming force from the East. On this day, 85 years ago, the USSR attacked Finland. Journalist Martha Gellhorn covered the Soviet-Finnish War for American media.
Finnish President Alexander Stubb said that the country is exploring the option of withdrawing from the Ottawa Convention on the prohibition of anti-personnel mines due to the threat from Russia. "The starting point is that our biggest threat is Russia, and we have to respond to

MUST WATCH: House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Mike McCaul — Ukraine gave up nukes in exchange for our military protection. We betrayed Ukraine when we allowed Russia to invade Crimea and Donbas in 2014. NATO betrayed Ukraine. We must supply Ukraine everything to win.
