Independence is my happiness, and I view things as they are, without regard to place or person; my country is the world, and my religion is to do good.

"Ukrainians defend what's theirs. Even those who are with Russia know that Russia is doing evil. Of course, we will not reward Russia for what it has perpetrated. The #Ukrainian people deserve peace. But all partners must understand what a dignified peace is.

Start your morning with two minutes of the testimony of Samuel Garcia, an average American who drove 3 hours to speak truth to power to the Texas legislature. Let’s decide that we are all Samuel Garcia. Get in their faces and make them listen. Mr. Garcia is a great American.

I agree with this. I urge people to continue to resist. But I no longer know what form that resistance should take. I do not see the clear next step—we have a rogue fascist regime and no one appears to have any idea how to stop it. We must at a minimum be clear-eyed about this. That is my point.

One of the Russian strikes on #Kyiv last night.
Ukrainians live through that - and the very next morning, we go to work, kids go to schools, life goes on (we have to, we cannot let Russia win). Our resilience never ceases to amaze me, honestly.
