Someone, no idea who, ( Tulsi) may be leaking information to Russia on weapons shipments to Ukraine. Countries need to stop giving the US intelligence information, they can not be trusted.

Read & share this remarkable 🧵 from @peterstefanovic.bsky.social, listing all the European leaders expressing support to President Zelensky.

Putin’s war on Ukraine is war on the whole free world. He has already seized the White House—for now.

Stand with Zelensky & Ukraine, and stop Putin now!
European leaders are stepping forward to tonight to show their support for President Zelensky 👏
