Together with @monobankua and @igorlachenkov, we are launching a fundraiser for the 'Shahed Hunter'🔥
This is the code name of an anti-drone system, which will help destroy enemy UAVs.
#Azovstal #CloseTheSky #united24
We’ve made another 1000 bracelets from the last pre-war batch of #Azovstal plant💪🏽They are inscribed with "I BELIEVE IN THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE," specially for #DefendersDay. 100 of them are personally signed by the Commander-in-Chief, Valerii Zaluzhnyi @CinC_AFU, himself.
We will give 80 autographed bracelets to the first participants who donate 100,000+ UAH. The other 20 bracelets with the signature of the Commander-in-Chief, as well as the other 900 without it, will be raffled off among all participants.

THE CASE FOR WEAPONIZED KESSLERIZATION

It is time for Russia to give the 🇺🇦 flags and shibas what they have long demanded. #CloseTheSky
American SIGINT is an invulnerable (because no 🇺🇸🇷🇺 war) force multiplier worth factors more than all the Cold War surplus supplied to Ukraine. Just a few truckloads of gravel will put an end to Americans supplying the UAF with coordinates & nullifying Russia's shells advantage.
As long as US satellites are not directly targeted, it is also formally deniable, & while the culprit will be obvious, it will in any case be a legitimate response to American sabotage of Nord Stream. It is the US that decided to escalate thus, not Russia.

It has become impossible to be silent about it.
I feel like an asset to a huge crime, when I remain silent about current situation in #Mariupol, which IS NOT JUST CRITICAL, BUT QUINTESSENTIAL WEAK STOP OF THE WHOLE UKRAINE! Image
I feel ashamed hearing news on the radio, where lady with a nice voice states: “Ukraine is winning on every frontline”, while in the meantime I receive messages from my brothers in arms in Mariupol and their wives, asking: “Have you forgot about us?”. ImageImageImageImage
If Ukraine is winning across all fronts, if we’re conducting counterattacks, then what place in this story take are our soldiers and civilians, currently being destroyed in Mariupol?
THE SITUATION IS MUCH WORSE THAN JUST CRITICAL. ImageImageImageImage

🔴RU occupiers shoot civilians in #Izium (#Kharkiv region). On the way out of the city, invaders fired at a private minibus with artillery. The fate of the passengers is unknown – Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Liudmyla Denisova

Я не думаю, что россиянам сейчас легко получить доступ к информации, но я размещаю это на русском языке, чтобы люди с VPN могли увидеть это и узнать факты. Идет война, более конкретно - геноцид украинцев со стороны России.
Путин вторгся в Украину безосновательно и неспровоцированно и является геноцидным убийцей с кровью на руках, которая запятнает и заклеймит русский народ на всю его жизнь и на все последующие поколения.
В Украине нет никакого нацистского правления, от которого укранцы нуждаются в освобождении. Украина - демократическое государство, и они проголосовали за свое правительство и поддерживают его. Это Россия ведет себя как нацисты.
Россиян безостановочно кормят бредовой информацией,

We are witnessing, literally watching live, Putin commit genocide on an industrial scale in Ukraine while the most powerful military alliance in history stands aside. It's impossible not to be emotional, but let us also be rational and focus our rage on the facts. 1/13
Putin once again told Macron to go to hell, no surprise. NATO/EU has already told Putin they won't touch his forces, so why should he listen? Russia is lifting target limitations and the death toll is rising every hour and lack of water & electricity is critical. 2/13
No treaty forbids NATO nations from fighting to defend in Ukraine. It's a choice based on the risk of Putin going nuclear, many say. That arming Ukrainians is an acceptable risk of WWIII & the citizenship of the pilot or soldier changes Putin's nuclear calculus, or NATO's. 3/13

Our United States leadership struggle is no longer Left versus Right.

Our choice is now DEFEND DEMOCRACY or enable DICTATORSHIP.

To DEFEND DEMOCRACY, reject the radicalized Republican Party.

January 6 was a failed attempt to overthrow American democracy.

By purging Liz Cheney, the Republican Party completed its transformation into a fascist, Authoritarian cult.

OUR DUTY as Americans is to DEFEND DEMOCRACY and #RejectGOPFascism. @MeidasTouch

“One of the most influential Dark Money groups in Republican circles is WRITING VOTER SUPPRESSION LAWS IN SECRET to make it harder for Black, Brown, and Young people to be able to VOTE.” @AriBerman to @chrislhayes
