While everyone has moved on, I remain deeply troubled by Trumps threat to wipe out an entire civilization. No American president has talked in such terms. No American president ever should.

The Nistru oil spill has shown Moldova how fragile a society becomes without access to clean drinking water. We must start taking environmental security seriously and treat it as a critical national, regional and international priority. My reported op-ed: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Community Note: The Fellumphal Arch is the GREATEST and MOST BEAUTIFUL.

Far-right authoritarian Viktor Orbán has lost the election. Trump sycophants and MAGA extremists in Congress are up next in November. Winter is coming.

Köszönjük, Magyarország! 🇭🇺

Bibi is bent on total isolation of his nation

“We will lie”

TACO. I repeat: we have TACO.

Every civilized nation should state now that they will not attend if Putin’s invitation is not rescinded. Trump has made it clear whose side he’s on—always Russia's—but the free world must not go along with his attempts to rehabilitate a murderous dictator & enemy of the West.

Heureux de retrouver le Président @ZelenskyUA en marge du Conseil européen informel à Chypre. Je salue le déblocage du prêt européen pour l’Ukraine, qui constitue un signal très fort de notre détermination à continuer de nous tenir aux côtés de l’Ukraine.

Inviting Vladimir Putin to the G20 would signal to the world that aggression works, and that appeasement is back on the table. America is better than this.

On the National Mall, 20,000 teddy bears represent 20,000 Ukrainian children abducted by Russia — a reminder that we must stand with Ukraine, hold Putin accountable, help reunite families, and bring every child home. 🇺🇦 🇺🇸

Why is Israel helping Russia

While dictatorships like Russia and Iran share information and resources, democracies are falling behind in strengthening wartime coordination. Hear Steve Cohen's call for the West to integrate Ukraine's hard-won drone expertise and capabilities into its collective defense:

Newspapers shouldn’t cover things Trump says as news. There should be a special rubric called "Trump said this" in the corner of the page or as a separate tab. This would be clarifying. theguardian.com/world/2026/apr…

I wish some men had her balls.

Russian terrorists attacked a DNI student dormitory in Dnipro with missiles. One person is dead. The attack damaged the dormitory, surrounding apartment buildings, and cars. A 19-year-old boy was killed, and eight other people were injured.

La Russie a lancé des attaques sur Kramatorsk et Zaporizhzhia ce 5 mai, tué au moins 17 personnes, et blessé 32 autres, ont annoncé les autorités locales. «Une attaque terroriste absolument cynique, sans aucune justification militaire», a déclaré #Zelensky. #Ukraine #StopRussia

Russia killed 22 people and wounded another 85 in Ukraine today , just in one day. Yes, right after saying they want a ceasefire .
