Friendly reminder that the Russians could end the war anytime by putting down their arms and going back to Russia.

🎯 1) Dictators don’t stop until they are stopped. 2) The price of stopping a dictator always goes up. Two of my maxims from over a decade ago. Cowardly Western leaders still act like Putin is going to stop on his own or that it will become easier to stop him.

For us, nations living under tyranny, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty & Voice of America are symbols of the free world—voices of truth. Many, like Ihar Losik, are in prison for working with them. For 🇺🇸, they are powerful tools of soft power, making America stronger & safer. Losing them would be a grave mistake.

Diese Nacht war eine der schrecklisten in Kyjiw. Massiver Angriff Russlands mit Drohnen. Die Erde bebte. Meine Schwiegermutter betete im Badezimmer, nur Sachschaden in der Küche. Die 5-jährige Nicole und ihr Vater Oleksandr wurden in ihrer Wohnung ermordet. Deutschland schläft

Ordinary Ukrainian cities: Kharkiv, Sumy, Dnipro. Ordinary life, and Russian strikes that should never have happened. Every day in Ukraine is marked by large-scale attacks with strike drones, mostly “Shaheds”—it was Iran that taught Russia how to produce such drones. Today,

“Berlin will burn!” “We will kill you all.” Russian state media isn’t just targeting Ukraine—it’s been fueling anti-West hate for years, pushing nuclear threats like they’re normal.

Countries that recognize Russia's illegal annexation of Crimea: Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Syria, Afghanistan, North Korea. The US State Dept site (for now): "The US govt recognizes Crimea is part of Ukraine; it does not & will not recognize the purported annexation of Crimea."

Trump's approach to Russia is an enormous mistake for the U.S.. This will be one of the biggest policy reversals in American history. It will have serious national security ramifications. And yet, Trump says he doesn't really care about the war, he just wants it off his plate.

If you are competent, or even know anyone who is competent, you know how impossible it is to perform a real job competently when this is the type of feedback you must provide to your boss. Nepotism and sycophancy turn autocracies into corrupt, failed regimes and economies.

This war will end, just as eternal dictatorships fall. Just as any empire built on the principles of war, disrespect for people and their rights, disdain for human life, comes to an end.

If you don't tell Russians their banks are about to fail, thet won't have those nasty bank runs that will bring down their already failing economy even faster So whatever you do, don't say, for example on Telegram, that Russia's banks are about to fail Or repost this post.

NATO is supposed to defend Europe from the aggressive Moscow empire but only the Armed Forces of Ukraine actually do that. NATO desperately needs Ukraine as a member.

But Swiss weapons cannot be transferred to the Ukrainians...

This war, which started in2014, continued for the entire Trump first term. He did nothing to end it. Please don’t believe this revisionist history. The war escalated in 2022, but started in 2014.m

When you’re being invaded by your historical imperialist oppressor, the alternative to war isn’t peace. It’s torture, ethnic cleansing, wholesale slaughter and the erasure of your culture.

So Trump gives Putin two weeks for ceasefire progress, Putin instead massively escalates, and our response is to halt weapons shipments to Ukraine. Incredible.

Time for an emergency meeting of European NATO leaders 👇👇👇

Again, clearly Putin got encouraged to bomb Ukraine even more after his phone call with Trump. So much for Trump.

Russia attacks Europe with North Korean troops, Iranian weapons, and Chinese support and manufacturing. Europe talks and the US cowers. Ukrainian civilians die and Ukrainian cities burn. The West could close the skies but every day chooses not to.
