Death cult. Imagine what happens to a Russian society that has been completely re-engineered for war and slaughter when war ends. Putin needs perpetual conflict to survive and won’t stop until he is defeated.

Justice is beautiful ✌️🌻 They wanted to see me on the porch of my Brooklyn home, covered in blood. I wore red instead to face my would-be assassin and to celebrate life, justice, and freedom. The Russian mobsters hired by Iranian regime sent to kill me on US soil were

"Putin is a dictator, a gangster, and there are war crimes that have been committed, but Zelenskyy isn't a friend of the working class either." @zarahsultana says all efforts need to be put in to ending the war in Ukraine, not pumping money into arms manufacturers.

I have moved from being shocked and disappointed at the Treasury to being angry. I spent some time with an elderly client today who is confused and distressed over what to do, and a huge portion of responsibility for her upset rests with unprofessionalism from the Treasury.

Fellow traveller of Russian imperialism repeats lines from the Kremlin. I would suggest she’s paid but why would Putin waste a penny, he gets the propaganda for free.

Few people I have ever met have shown the consistent quiet courage to love that @paulahudgell shows every day. I am proud to call her, and her amazing family, friends. This is heartbreaking news.

Courage.
Hello everyone, I have survived one kidnapping and two assassination plots on U.S. soil, all because I dared to spearhead a campaign against compulsory hijab and give voice to millions of Iranians who refuse to live under dictatorship. I lost Brooklyn home, my garden, my

Anastasia Masliy was 19 years old. Russia killed her last night in Kyiv, along with her mother. The women suffocated in their own bathroom, hiding from the fire started by a Russian drone 🕯

Listening to Italian senator @CarloCalenda is a reminder that we don’t need to be victims of Putin’s corrupt aggression. We have allowed our own weakness by choosing dependency on their energy and capitulation to their lies. The truth matters - Sen Calenda is speaking it.
Italian Senator @CarloCalenda speaks the truth about European appeasement towards Putin after the annexation of Crimea. Not so common in the Italian TV. I hope more politician will follow. [ENG SUB]
