Would also be great if the EU saw fit to reprimand him for piracy and intimidation, instead of reprimanding Zelenskyy for voicing his frustration

ICYMI: Republicans BLOCKED my bill to fund TSA.

Republicans are punishing travelers and forcing TSA agents to work without pay because they want to cut another blank check for ICE & Border Patrol.

It's shameful.

Leaders of both parties should be calling for Witkoff's immediate resignation after these remarks. He is a Russian patsy, a traitor, and this has just gone for too long. It is has to end.

⚑️ Ukraine's long-range drones struck 85 targets across Russia in February 2026, according to Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi.

The precision campaign successfully slashed Russia’s total oil refining volume by 24.8%.

Hungary has admitted to this premeditated attempt at extortion, but all the EU can do is release public statements admonishing President Zelenskyy's off-hand responses to Hungary's constant threats.

Never believe that budget cuts to social programs or education, or supporting the arts and science are about fiscal responsibility due to limited funds. They always find the money when they want to.

And this doesn't even include the cost of human lives, which is the real horror here.

This crisis is "good" for Putin in so many ways that sometimes I wonder if it wasn’t started for Russia’s benefit in the first place.

⚑Ukraine’s defense forces have regained control of more than 400 square kilometers of territory during a counteroffensive in Dnipro region.

Thanks to putin and Ukrainian missiles, citizens of the russian city of Bryansk can now experience living like in Ukraine! The microelectronics factory got seriously toasted today, with multiple hits and plenty of russians panicking on telegram.

Zelensky: "We raise the issue of missiles for air defense systems that are in short supply for us. In general, you know that even a year ago we proposed a β€œdrone deal” to the United States, which included interceptor drones and other capabilities as well.

Isn't it interesting that, just as Ukraine started to make significant advances on the battlefield, another war escalated in the Middle East - drawing focus and resources away from Ukraine and derailing negotiations? Not to mention rising oil prices benefitting Russia.

"Almost the entire territory of the Dnipropetrovsk region has been liberated. Three small settlements remain to be completed and two more to be cleared. [Due] to these active actions, we have positive dynamics in February - more territory has been liberated than lost."

Oh boy, honouring Merkel and Zelensky together is rich given Merkel's role in emboldening Russia to think it can conquer Ukraine militarily and Europe would do nothing beyond performative grumbling.

The war in Iran highlights a glaring double standard.

Ukraine has suffered under Russian missiles and shaheds for years, denied sufficient air defense and missiles to strike Russia.

The West is clearly capable of decisive action.

It is time to arm Ukraine properly

Not pointing any fingers here, but if your comment starts with the words "If I were Zelenskyy", you should probably reconsider posting it.

Just a thought.

We should be supporting Ukraine and Zelenskyy instead of netanyahu and putin.

During one of the russian air attacks, a mother set up a small β€˜hotel room’ for her son in the bathroom to keep him safe.

This is how many Ukrainian children have to sleep day after day.

It's why we all stared at video of President Obama speaking at the Jackson Memorial ceremony. The sound of a sane, competent, informed and intelligent mind saying compassionate and true things. It was like one desperate gasp of oxygen as our heads go under the water again. 😞

Zelenskyy has never offered to help attack Iranian civilians or occupy their territory. The potential deal is about defensive technology, particularly for the other countries in the region.

The war in the Middle East does not seem to have affected Russia's drone supplies.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
