17+ people were killed and over 40 injured in deadly Russian strikes on Kyiv. Zelenskyy has pleaded for more air defence weapons, saying ballistic missile interceptors “could have saved the lives of those killed today.” Trump backtracked on his promise to let Ukraine manufacture missiles locally.

NEW from me: I think this is the perfect time to use Rachel Maddow’s oft-repeated phrase - ‘watch what they do- not what they say.’ Ignore Ellison's PR pitch, but look at what's happening at CBS News including directing reporters to add “facts” that did not exist. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

David Ellison can’t be trusted with CNN

We've already seen how Ellison has wrecked CBS. Don't fall for his PR push on CNN.
