Hi folks: Facebook appears to be taking down my posts. Please remember they are available for free here (no paywall), and can be received by email (also free-- just don't put in your credit card information). I guess if I'm being banned I'm doing something right?

Across Ukraine, many people were shocked and blindsided at how a deal between the U.S. and the country on critical minerals fell apart and how President Trump treated Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky. They also said they wouldn’t stop fighting, even if the U.S. walked away.
Ukrainians Blindsided by Deal’s Breakdown and by Trump’s Actions
