Wow! Witkoff also personally adviced the Russians how to sabotage the then-possible transfer of tomahawks to Ukraine 😮

Witkoff is literally working FOR RUSSIA. He really, really, really needs to be fired. #FireWitkoff

I know far too many people who have been knocked off their bikes, and not once has it happened because of poor visibility or because they were not lit up enough. In each case, it was the fault of dangerous driving and/or dangerous infrastructure.
👀 Can you see me now?

The importance of visibility on our roads cannot be understated, particularly for vulnerable road users including pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooter drivers and motorcyclists.

US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll has warned Western diplomats that Russia is stockpiling missiles at a pace that exceeds its current usage, raising fears of a broader future conflict that could extend beyond Ukraine, the NYT reports.

Delayers will always point out the costs of strong action on climate, and call them prohibitive

The best response is to flip the question, and highlight the costs of not taking action

Money spent on climate is not a cost - it's a wise investment

We must find a way to provide Ukraine with frozen Russian assets as soon as possible.

Failure to act is, in effect, siding with Putin

Trump envoy Steve Witkoff has been outed as a Russian asset. This is traitorous stuff.
Steve Witkoff helped Russia derail Ukraine’s access to Tomahawk missiles. He tipped off the Kremlin about Zelensky’s U.S. visit, giving Moscow time to arrange a call that convinced Trump to block the deal. Witkoff actively works against Ukraine’s defense, in coordination with Putin’s regime.

There is no good reason for Trump to be involved in Ukraine negotiations.

Europe pays everything; Trump pays nothing.

Epstein emails and new leaks also prove Trump is compromised and under Russian blackmail, while Witkoff clearly backs Moscow over the US and Ukraine.

Trump out!

11/12 The only way to change Putin’s calculus is to make waiting worse than stopping. That means:

✅ Release frozen Russian assets to Ukraine
✅ Provide more weapons and long-range missiles
✅ Impose tougher sanctions on Russia

14/14 Bottom line: Trump’s plan is unacceptable. It is capitulation.

Ukraine deserves a just settlement, not a deal written in the Kremlin’s office.

Europe must finally wake up. Unlock Russia’s frozen assets. Give Ukraine leverage. End this war on fair terms
