Good question.
Putin is choking on Ukraine and needs Trump to perform the Heimlich Manoeuvre. Ukraine courageously resisted Russia at its strongest, why would it capitulate when Russia is at its weakest?

Latest podcast Thinking in Dark Times: Volodymyr Yermolenko hosts Oleksandra Matviychuk (head of Center for Civil Liberties - Nobel Peace Prize laureate). She makes the point that an occupation is not peace, just war with another face.

Very important discussion.

🕯️Ternopil… The footage is extremely painful!

People died as a result of a Kh-101 missile hitting a residential building — they were simply sleeping in their beds.

So far, 10 deaths are known…

Spain consistently fulfills our bilateral security agreement, and this gives confidence in annual support - €1 billion every year.

Every patriotic US citizen should be up in arms over this. Utterly disgusting.
Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

Blanche didn’t ask Maxwell a single question about any of these emails. Then he moved her to Club Fed where she is served individual meals and has a puppy and numerous other special privileges while she prepares her clemency petition. WHY?

1/ In 2023, I met a Ukrainian “soldier” named Fedir.
He was kind and never flirted. Months later, he declared his love — and asked for €2,500. That’s how it began.

Looks a great initiative.

Engaging younger members of society in democratic society is essential for the protection of democracy itself.

If you don't choose democracy, then you're opting to relinquish your rights to select who governs you and how.

Would you prefer surveillance state China?

The true North American people lived long before Colombus, long before white Europeans crossed the Atlantic ocean. Perhaps now it's a good time to make a lot more noise about America's native people, in case anyone thinks the country is owned by people who came only 250 years ago.

The more I learn about Mario Corina Machado, the more inspirational she becomes.

Democracy has always been about freedom, freedom at the very least to choose who governs and how.
