Greetings from Kyiv.

I opened the morning news.
russians hit a residential building in Kharkiv.
Five people were killed, among them a 1.5‑year‑old girl.

I made a warcoffee.
Damned peacemakers, peacedealers, and other peacenothings.

Bridget Brink didn’t just resign—she walked out in fury.
Trump bullied Zelenskyy, sided with Putin, and dared to call it “peace.” Brink called it what it is: appeasement. That Oval Office meeting was a disgrace.

Trump didn’t just fail Ukraine—he spit on its fight for freedom.

I want you to realise the scale.

UNESCO estimates that the damage caused
by russian aggression since 2014 to Ukrainian cultural heritage exceeds $2.6 billion.

This looting of Ukrainian museums is believed to be the largest since the Second World War.

Amid turmoil, Trump heads to Florida for a golf event (again)

“His tenacity in countering Russian efforts was impressive to watch,” said Kikta, who retired from the command in 2022. “So why this administration would fire someone who was so innovative and aggressive is beyond me.”

Cory Booker is now in his *third hour* on the Senate floor—still speaking with heart, fire, and fierce conviction.
He’s not just holding the floor—he’s holding the line for democracy.
This is what moral courage looks like.
Keep going, Senator.
We see you.
We stand with you.✊🏽💙

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.
