I highly recommend this stunning & comprehensive analysis of the threat that a second Trump presidency would pose to American democracy. Thanks to Protect Democracy for this superb work. authoritarianplaybook2025.org

This Haley supporter says that if Trump becomes the Republican nominee, he will vote for Biden: “This is an election about democracy, and ultimately I’ll choose democracy over political issues.” On Tuesday, the GOP has the last chance to stop Trump from becoming the nominee.

Most of the Russian attacks on civilians are not a “collateral damage”. It’s not like they attack the military targets and accidentally hit the civilians. No, they attack civilians deliberately. And randomly. Crowds of people, residential buildings, schools, hospitals etc

The Crocus attack is not the first time Russia is trying to fake Ukraine's connection with ISIS and block the US funding to Ukraine. Here is the report uncovering an earlier attempt - bbc.com/ukrainian/feat…

The Georgian police, for which the West invested an enormous amount of money to enhance its capacity, has transformed into a Russian-style OMON over the past few weeks, serving regime to undermine what is left of Georgian democracy.

Worth listening to Timothy Snyder in Tallinn 🇪🇪 yesterday: We are in 1938 now. If Czechs had resisted Nazi Germany at the time, there would have been no WWII. If Ukraine gives up or we give up 🇺🇦 we will move to 1939. Ukraine helps us to extend 1938.

When Putin asks for confirmation of Zelensky's legitimacy for negotiations, is he ready to face his own issues with the legitimacy of the democratically elected president?

Russia bombing a children’s hospital is a war crime. It’s also a clear taunt & test directed at the #NATOSummit. Our response should be clear: 1. Lift all restrictions on military aid. Let #Ukraine strike any mil target in Russia. 2. #FreeTaurus 3. Increase air defense for 🇺🇦

A few thoughts on Biden's decision not to seek reelection: 1. Biden & his presidency how look outstanding. He got more legislation done than either Obama or Clinton & appears utterly decent. All rightly praise him now. He stood up for his country rather than for himself.

Just a reminder - and a good read: rollingstone.com/politics/polit…

The sole purpose of Nord Stream 1+2 was to facilitate Russia's war on Ukraine by eliminating any Russian gas flow through Ukraine to Europe. The German leaders Schröder & Merkel facilitated Russia's preparations for its war on Ukraine. Shame on them!

The absurdity of this situation is that Trump is selling "peace with Russia" and the anti-establishment narrative - which is exactly what Zelensky had "successfully" sold to his voters just 5 years ago and 3 years before another Russian attack on Ukraine.

Please share this fact sheet on Ukraine with anyone who needs it. understandingwar.org/backgrounder/u…

Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.

This little three-year-old boy was born under the explosions of Russian missiles in Ukrainian cities. And he was killed by the explosions of Russian missiles in Ukrainian cities. Russia is killing Ukrainian children.

Trump: Putin has gone absolutely CRAZY! All Ukrainians:

NATO expansion, denazification are just bullshit excuses Russia uses to invade, occupy & destroy Ukraine. Watch this & share it far and wide. youtu.be/7-ni15vB7Nw?si…

Spent my Saturday analysing the 28-point plan. The result: If the US is seriously considering enforcing this plan, it would place itself in violation of: • 13 binding treaties and international instruments • 23 political commitments, declarations, and authoritative
