This is 5-year-old Emilia and 10-year-old Sofia Dvornychenko, Russia killed them in a terrorists attack on girls own home in Sumy on August 4. 🕯💔 Russians struck the family's home with a guided aerial bomb, completely destroying it and killing two children…

It's clear to every single analyst that, in a fair fight, Russia and its evil regime would already have had its ass whipped by Ukraine, Putin would no longer be president and the world would be more peaceful. For 12 years I've warned not standing up to Russia increases problems.

And the US has been failing to increase its air defense production despite abundant evidence over the last 4 years of the proliferation of non-nuclear ballistic missiles. Not to mention drones …
🇺🇸❗️🇺🇦 Trump rejected Zelenskyy's request to supply Ukraine with hundreds of Patriot missiles, - FT Sources reported that Trump cited the US's limited stockpile of these missiles for his decision, arguing that they were necessary to protect American facilities in the Middle East…
A new Kremlin-backed traitorous political party is about to be announced in the US
Zelensky said Russia's attack on Kyiv and the surrounding region killed 17 people and injured 44. Russia launched 24 ballistic missiles, 4 Zircon/Oniks missiles and 115 drones, mainly targeting civilian sites. He said ballistic interceptors could have saved lives. #Ukraine
One of recent ballistic missile attacks caught 7 people running on the street to shelter. They died. The issue with ballistic missile attack is that you have no time to react, and russians (as of late) are trying to make those attacks as sudden and unexpected as possible.
#UkrainianView I kept repeating it to my Western audience, where many still view the war in terms of territory or resources - it was never the case. The sole goal of russia's aggression was genocide - destroying Ukrainian identity in principle, like they were doing for the past 300 years.
Since 2022, Russia has systematically targeted Ukrainian culture—destroying warehouses, libraries, and print shops. This isn't collateral damage; it’s a deliberate war on Ukrainian identity and education. 🧵 1/12
If anyone told to me to stop attack russians, I'd show them millions of such videos. Overnight, they've attacked Kyiv and its suburbs. 15 people were killed, over 30 injured. Military targets? Zero. #Ukrainianview
Don't look now, but the world has now installed 3TW of solar. Took 10 years to get from 100GW to 1TW. Less than 3 years to get to 2TW. Less than 2 years to get to 3TW. Analysts expect *9TW* by 2036.
The World Crossed a Major Solar Milestone. No One Noticed
The next phase of the boom may reveal a shift in who is gaining access to the technology.

Europe must stop acting like the war in Ukraine will end in the next 18 months. It could last for years. We must place massive, long-term military orders for Kyiv and finally mobilize frozen Russian assets to fund them
Just after midnight in Kyiv. Once again, the city is under ballistic missile attack. Loud explosions shake the summer night.
Republicans win the White House, enact trickle-down tax cuts, and collapse the economy. Feel like we've been here before? Here's why it keeps happening.

"De Russische invasie wordt een ‘oorlog in Oekraïne’. (...) De weigering van Oekraïne om afgeslacht te worden, verandert in een obstakel voor de vrede." Hoe Moskou valse uitgangspunten verpakt in ogenschijnlijk onschuldige taal, door @andrewchak.bsky.social:

Russia's war on Ukraine has yet to end because Russia keeps waging it. It is shocking, though regrettably unsurprising, that in the fifth summer since the 2022 escalation by the aggressor, and 12 yea...

Attrition warfare is math. Russia's strikes on civilians are gut-wrenchingly awful, but wasting an Oreshnik missile on a garage is also quite simply bad math. Terrorizing Ukrainian civilians hasn't brought Russian victory closer.
Russia continues to kill more civilians. It's horrible but it's not making Ukrainians reconsider. If you look at the military or economic value of the targets, Russia is currently bleeding faster. Take a Ukrainian gas station🔥 versus a Russian oil refinery🔥🔥🔥 for example. -$ versus -$$$$$
Rest well Bluesky 🖤 U.S. emissions led global loss calculations at over $10 trillion, closely followed by China at $9 trillion Roughly 25% to 30% of the economic damage linked to American carbon output occurred inside the United States (amounting to $3 trillion). You are destroying your own planet
The USA is at the same time a nuclear armed superpower, and one of the most ridiculous states in the history of the world.
🔴 Russian prison guards are torturing Ukrainian journalist Iryna Danylovych with 12 hours of blasting noise every single day. Abducted in occupied Crimea and sentenced on sham charges, she was already left nearly deaf due to medical neglect. 1/2
12 years ago today, 7,000 Yazidi Women and girl were sold in chains under sharia law by lslamic State. About 2,700 still missing.
Protecting Ukraine from Russian ballistic strikes is one of the main challenges for us and one of Ukraine's key vulnerabilities today. US-made Patriot air defense systems are the only reliable protection Ukraine has against Russian ballistic missiles⤵️
Irregular reminder: West wants diplomacy/negotiations/deals with people who do this daily.

War can have big environmental impacts, in addition to the human and economic impacts. An analysis reported in the Guardian found that the first 14 days of the Iran war caused 5 million tons of additional carbon emissions, about the same as a mid-size fossil fuel-using country emits in a full year.
5m tonnes of CO2 emitted in just 14 days of US war on Iran, analysis finds
Exclusive: War in the Middle East is draining the global carbon budget faster than 84 countries combined

Putin’s Russia is the single largest criminal enterprise on Earth. Followed by the Trump Family. Let’s get rid of both and watch the planet bloom like it’s spring.

Just a reminder that since Laura Loomer announced her support for Ukraine, Trump has: 1) walked back a promise to let Ukraine build Patriots, 2) denied a ukrainian request for 300 PAC3s, 3) slow walked 400mil in congressionally approved aid for Ukraine. But the vibes were good!
