Russia's attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure bear the characteristics of the crime of genocide, a war crime, and a crime against humanity, as they predictably lead to mass suffering and are a policy of "destruction of living conditions."

Criminals must be punished.

Just the other day, our friends in 🇸🇪Sweden raised €400,000 in the first five minutes alone of a charity telethon to help Ukraine survive the catastrophic Russian missile strikes on heating and energy infrastructure in the middle of a cold winter.

Sadists and psychopaths, people devoid of empathy for whom other people's lives mean nothing, are surely a very marginal demographic in any population--yet by some perverse law of negative selection, they seem to be grossly overrepresented in positions of power.

Trump's assistance to the Russian attack on Ukrainian power and heating last night was so egregious that I put together this short, free piece on it. He helped Putin kill Ukrainians. If the USA does not do something soon, the US should be seen as a Putin ally. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Russland schießt die Ukraine vor den Augen der Welt weiter in eine humanitäre Katastrophe. Und die Welt schaut weiter zu. Die Unterstützung reicht angesichts des russischen Energieterrors bei Minusgraden nicht aus. Das müssen die Partner anerkennen und daraus Handlungen ableiten.

Hi everyone, just sent out my free weekend update. First a note of thanks--readers donated enough last week to Come Back Alive that the Ukrainians could have shot down up to 10 Russian attack drones terrorizing Ukrainian cities. That is amazing and worthy of note. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Hi All, a new piece. The word "victory" is not used about Ukraine nearly as much as it should. People have fallen for the Trump-Putin narrative of Russian strength too often. Ukraine and its partners need to think in terms of victory, and this is what that means. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Kyiv, Ukraine, Friday, January 23, 2026.

Hot food is handed out to people in Kyiv after Russian attacks.

These people have worked all their lives, lived their lives, had everything worked out, they didn't ask anyone for anything.
And now they have to stand in line for a bowl of hot soup.

Russland nimmt den Menschen in der Ukraine Licht und Wärme. Die Folge für alle, die hier leben: es ist dunkel und kalt. Auf der Arbeit, draußen, zu Hause. Ich habe versucht, das in einem kurzen Video für euch festzuhalten.
