The arrogance of this questioning ... "didn't President Trump tell you not to strike russian refineries .. aren't you just trying to leverage President Trump ..."
Speaking to President Zelenskyy as a recalcitrant teenager who has no agency to decide what's best for his country.

Texas GOP voter: The Republican Party has been hijacked. They're not the Republican Party that I was a member of for all of my life.
Reporter: Is this a vote for Talarico or against Ken Paxton?
Texas GOP voter: It's a vote for Talarico in this case. He presents himself in a very positive manner. He is clearly a legitimate Christian. He doesn't just talk the talk, he walks the walk, and you can tell the difference from a mile away.

Russian cyberattack. They gave themselves away by triggering two very unlikely alerts that had never been issued before within a couple of minutes.

The Ukrainian "Air Alert" app has been hacked and is showing false alerts, including warnings of a nuclear threat and a chemical threat. These are completely fake.

⚡️ BREAKING: The "Air Alert" app was likely hacked, and there is no radiation threat in Ukraine, the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported.
Officials urged citizens to remain calm and follow only verified updates from official channels.

Russia’s invasion takes away more than homes, businesses, and loved ones. It destroys dreams, plans, and entire worlds.
We can’t bring back what’s been lost. But we can protect what Russia hasn’t destroyed.

I WISH YOU COULD HAVE SEEN WHAT I SAW TODAY. 🥹❤️🐾
I honestly cannot describe how happy I am.
For days, we watched pieces of wood slowly turn into little houses for our rescued cats. My idea was simple — winter is coming, and I wanted them to have somewhere warm and cosy to curl up and sleep.
But today, as our team started placing them inside the cat rooms, something happened that I never expected.
THE CATS WENT CRAZY WITH EXCITEMENT! 😭❤️
The boys hadn’t even finished arranging them and the cats were already running over, climbing up, disappearing into one little room after another, peeking out, exploring and choosing their favourite spots.
I stood there watching them and suddenly realised:
We didn’t just build them warm beds.
We gave them their own little world. ❤️
I thought I was simply creating protection from the winter cold. I had NO IDEA these houses would become their playground, hiding place, safe corner and favourite cosy place to be.
Seeing them today made my heart feel as though it could burst. 🥹
To everyone who helped us build these — LOOK WHAT YOUR KINDNESS BECAME.
And we are not finished yet. The houses still need painting and finishing, and our winter work still has a long way to go — more dog beds, winter protection for our donkey sheds, our heating system, and warm arrangements for the most vulnerable animals.
We are building everything little by little, because that is how the funds are coming — a little arrives, we order the next materials, and the team gets back to work.
I wish you could truly understand how much power you have. ❤️
A donation. A share. A repost. Something that may take only seconds for you can eventually become THIS — a frightened rescued animal running excitedly into a little home of their own.
If we had enough help, we wouldn’t have to struggle inch by inch to finish before the cold becomes unbearable.
Please help us keep going. Let’s finish what we started for them. 🙏❤️

Millions of Ukrainians sleep in shelters because the threat from the sky is constant. The more air defense Ukraine has, the fewer people have to live in fear.

⚡🐺 Wolves On The Hunt 🐺⚡
Today is the birthday of a hero. Born in Zadnistrianske, Ivano-Frankivsk. He earned the call sign "Da Vinci" because of his childhood interest in drawing and art. Dmytro Ivanovych "Da Vinci" Kotsiubailo. He participated in the 2013–2014 Revolution of Dignity and volunteered to fight in eastern Ukraine at just 18 years old. He fought with the Ukrainian Volunteer Corps, was wounded in Pisky in 2014, and returned to the front lines after recovering. A hero of Ukraine who died fighting on March 7, 2023 in Bakhmut.
This week, we have the honour of supporting his wolves, the 108th Separate Assault Battalion "Da Vinci Wolves". Let us honour this hero by supporting his legacy and realizing his dream of a free Ukraine.
Join us tomorrow for “This Week’s Toonie” with Segi and a special guest to find out more.

Recently, Russia also claimed that it wants to receive security guarantees. But they are the aggressors. What are they afraid of? Maybe they are afraid of us? I don't understand. It is we who need security guarantees, because it is we who were attacked, — Zelensky

I found this BBC report from Chernihiv, Olena. The journalist, Dan Johnson, says at the end that russia will try to present themselves as humanitarian, when "it was russia which was oppressing, surrounding and occupying that town for the past 4 years". bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqgl…

About Oleshky.
First, thank you to everyone who made this evacuation possible. To everyone who spent years drawing attention to russian genocide in Oleshky, long before the suffering made international headlines. And to everyone who continues fighting to bring home those abducted by russia.
Every single life saved is invaluable.
Watching people finally escape the hell of russian occupation, carrying their pets and a few belongings — whatever was left of their former lives — was both heartbreaking and deeply moving.
russia made these people go through the hell none of us can even imagine. They will need enormous support to rebuild their lives, and I sincerely hope the Ukrainian state will provide it.
And this brings me to the most important point that we should keep conveying to the world.
This evacuation must not become a story about russian goodwill.
None of these people should ever have been forced to live through that hell and flee their homes in the first place.
For years, people in Oleshky have lived under russian occupation, subjected to grave abuses and deprived of their freedom and basic needs. Those atrocities demand thorough investigation and accountability, they must not be written off or forgotten.
Allowing some people to leave does not erase what happened to them. Nor does it absolve russia of responsibility for those who still remain trapped, those who have been abducted, and those who have lost their lives.
As for the russian political motives behind this operation. I fear that Moscow will be trying to present the release of these people as evidence of its supposed willingness to negotiate — and then use that narrative to encourage Washington to double down pressure on Kyiv as if we are an obstacle to peace.
We are seeing the same story unfolding now, with the lately released American citizen who was illegally abducted by russia and tortured in captivity, but who now plays into Trump's narrative that sanctions againts russia must be lifted.
russia is not humanitarian, it is a perpetrator and a core reason for this war. It is cancer of mankind.
But besides political motives, russians may well try to get military advantages too. While the temporary Oleshky ceasefire made this evacuation possible, we should also be watching further russian military activity in the Kherson direction very closely. There were reports of russia using humanitarian demining to bring in more weapons, improve logistics and do troops rotations.
None of this diminishes the extraordinary importance of the lives saved. Quite the opposite.
But we must keep telling the *full story of Oleshky*. Not just about this evacuation, but the years of occupation, suffering, disappearances, deaths, and the people who are still there, waiting to come home.
Because this mission also reminds us of something fundamental: this war continues only because russia chooses to continue it.
If russia stops fighting, there will be no war. If Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no Ukraine.
"I wanted Ukraine to be back in Oleshky, not people from Oleshky to move here," said a woman with tears in her eyes yesterday. I cannot agree more. This war is so unjust.

Please share this widely.
There would have been NO NEED for any humanitarian mission to Oleshky, without russia's invasion and illegal occupation. russia will try to claim credit, when they are the sole cause of this suffering. There will be many more towns like Oleshky, waiting.
