Carol of the Bells (Ukrainian Shchedryk) performed by a Swedish choir in Ukrainian.

The choir is conducted by a Ukrainian lady, the pianist and several young participants are also from Ukraine, and the rest of the choir learned Shchedryk in Ukrainian.

Beautiful!

Handwaving away your party’s embrace of antisemitic conspiracy theories by saying “at least we’re not controlled by George Soros” is the most ridiculously quiet-part-loud thing I’ve ever seen.

Most Americans don’t fully grasp what is the most powerful animating force in my former political party: white Christian nationalism. It’s real, and, bcuz Trump is an empty vessel, it’s a movement that uses him to grow in power & influence. And it’s growing. I hear it every day from Trump voters.👇

US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard denied Reuters reporting that Russia aims to occupy all of Ukraine and threatens Europe. She called it lies and propaganda meant to sabotage Trump's peace efforts. Gabbard claimed NATO and EU want to drag US forces into war with Russia.

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

This is a very appropriate observation. We failed to protect Ukraine from Russia.
It IS our war. We made a deal with Ukraine that if they gave up their nukes, we’d protect them from Russia.

Over no public dissents, #SCOTUS *denies* Trump administration's application for a stay in the immigration judges case (about whether the dispute should be in a district court or before the Merit Systems Protection Board).

It's the Trump administration's first real loss at #SCOTUS since April.

Zelensky said Oreshnik transfer to Belarus is finishing, locations shared to partners. He asked why Western allies pressing for peace don't equally pressure Russia against deploying missiles near Poland, noting sanctions on component suppliers remain absent.

Statements from Polish President Nawrocki during Zelensky's visit:

Zelensky's Warsaw visit is good news for Warsaw and Kyiv, bad news for Moscow.

Russian threat didn't start with 2022 full-scale war but earlier.

Trump is the only world leader ready to force Putin to sign peace.

Maybe, the position will change in the future. Politicians change, somebody lives, somebody dies. And it’s life.

A bipartisan US senator group is urging Belgium to release frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraine, warning that delays only help Putin and test NATO’s resolve. The letter, sent ahead of today's EU summit, targets Belgium’s legal hesitations and backs the European Commission’s plan to leverage assets.

Putin has called European leaders "little pigs":

"Everyone assumed that within a short period of time they would destroy and dismantle Russia. And the European little pigs immediately joined in the work of the previous U.S. administration, hoping to profit from the collapse of our country”
