On Palm Sunday, as Ukrainian Christians prayed for peace, Russia struck Sumy with cluster munitions, showing its own "commitment" to peace.

32 people were killed as a result, including two children. 99 others sustained injuries, including 11 children.

Russia murdered five people in Kharkiv last night and at least twelve (I fear the number will rise) in Kryvyi Rih just now. Where are the headlines? I'm so sick and tired of the world press treating Russia's murder of Ukrainians as something unworthy of mention.

Witkoff's repeating of Kremlin lies about "russian-speakers" wanting to "join Russia" is truly chilling. This is nothing less than carte blanche for Putin's genocidal imperialism. Hearing Americans talk like this should be an electric shock for Europe, not a wakeup call.

Orban has promoted more corruption than any other EU leader.
Transparency International now ranks Hungary as the most corrupt EU country - it used to be the least corrupt in Eastern Europe before Orban.
Orban = corruption.
Protesters are out in Budapest, Hungary today demanding the resignation of pro-Putin Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

Love it!

He died in the explosion and was posthumously awarded Hero of Ukraine. A bridge in Prague now honors his legacy.

Is Ukraine Losing the War?
Too many people are edging toward the idea that Russia will win. They badly underestimate Ukraine’s strengths.

Let me explain escalation

1) Russia attacks & invades Ukraine in Feb 2014 (escalation)
2) little or the minimum is done in reaction to these events. Ukrainians are initially even told to stand down
3) Russia annexes Crimea (escalation)
4) relatively minor sanctions are launched
