It would be so helpful if you could RT my post above about my Etsy shop. I haven't been able to work for more than half the year due to severe depression/a breakdown. If you see this & could spare a few moments for a RT it would help me put my designs in front of a few more eyes. Thankyou so much🌿

Russian MPs are not even trying to hide that Russia has no intention of abiding by any peace agreement.
As I've said before, we're discussing the points of a peace plan without Russia that doesn't care for it and shows no readiness for peace.

Putin is going to have to take a bullet before the war ends. It could be from the Russian business elite, or himself, or a foreign intelligence service. Just like Hitler, Putin is at the point where he has pushed all his chips in on a war he can't win and can't quit.

To Marco Rubio: if you believe it's not your war, just you wait until Kremlin feels enough impunity to set its eyes on retaking Alaska. And oh, boy, it's going to become your war faster than you can say "wha, wha, what's happening?!".

My new piece in The Atlantic continues how to fight Putinization in America. Trump is accelerating his wide-spectrum attacks on the rule of law & on public & private institutions that might slow him. If legislators don’t fight now, they won’t be able to later. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
How America Can Avoid Becoming Russia
Political pressure must be brought to bear—through the courts, the press, and the states, but also applied to legislators while they still have any power left.
