Considering Norway has not awarded me the Nobel Prize in Physics despite me following ALL of Newton’s and Einstein’s laws, I will be forced to think of myself and wage war on gravity

"Are you afraid of the alert? Everything is fine. It will end."

The mother сaptured a touching moment in which her 3-year-old son comforts his little sister, saying that the air raid alert is just an "unpleasant sound," and it will end.

#Ukrainians do not need to be persuaded that peace is needed. Ukrainians want peace more than anyone else, because war is our daily reality.

A lasting peace and a ceasefire depend on Russia, which started this war and continues to wage it.

There is no peace because Russia wants war⤵️

When 15 million Americans lose their health care and plunge into personal crisis, none of them are going to give a shit about a made-for-clicks twitter fight between two billionaires arguing about who gets the bigger share of the corruption spoils.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

There’s a great Finnish saying ”to climb the tree with your ass first” meaning to do something in the wrong order or counterintuitively in an unnecessarily hard way.

That’s how Finland’s president Stubb described Trump’s expectation to get an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine 😆

If Russia stops fighting, there will be no war; if Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no Ukraine.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Nuclear NPT
Helsinki Accords
Belovezha Accords
Paris Charter
Budapest Memo
Black Sea Fleet Treaty
🇺🇦-🇷🇺 Friendship Treaty
Treaty on Azov Sea & Kerch Strait

But Trump says "Putin would keep his word on a Ukraine peace deal".

Avdiivka, ruined by Russian nazis. Footage from a Russian channel. The nazis got what they wanted. Destruction spreads across the land like a disease, like leprosy, wherever the Russian foot steps.

He blinked.
2 days ago Donald demanded our nationhood as the price of peace.
Then we hit with $125bil in counter tariffs and pulled American products off the shelf.
So now he settles for a fentanyl czar.
Canada shows the world how to stand up.
But this is ain't over.
Don't drop your guard.

This is Ihor's granddaughter Sofia. Russia killed her and her parents yesterday.

Ihor waited at the tragedy site all night. The bodies of his son and daughter-in-law still haven't been found.

The search and rescue operation in Poltava continues.
