The Russian army attacked the village of Malokaterynivka in Zaporizhzhia, resulting in four children—ages 11, 14, 15, and 17—and an 18-year-old girl being injured.

re: #InfluencerGate
even if tim pool and benny johnson were just morons who had no idea they had become #russian assets (doubtful) the indictment is pretty clear that lauren chen is 100% a russian asset.
she's appeared on a who's who of right wing media: Fox News, BlazeTV, RT, OANN, #Newsmax, The Daily Wire, Rebel Media, #PragerU and The Rubin Report.
an interesting twist is that recently #LaurenChen had kind of gone batshit anti-trump. she also had a big "repeal the 19th amendment" phase. some folks are claiming that means she was a plant to damage the right. all i can think of is that KGB quote "our brand is chaos".
worth at least seeing Chen's anti-trump tweets: https://x.com/stclairashley/status/1831453510438998498

17,000 russian armored vehicles have been destroyed since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
The BMP-1, one of the most common russian IFVs, is 6.7 meters in length. So, if we put all the destroyed vehicles in line, it's almost 114 km"

What’s Mandelson up to? Is this really Kier Starmer’s message to Europe, or is Mandelson an outlier with this?

Peter Mandelson has been rebuffed for saying Volodymyr Zelenskyy should be more supportive of US peace efforts and that Ukraine should unilaterally call a ceasefire, with a UK defence minister saying this was “not government policy”.
The overnight comments by Lord Mandelson, the UK ambassador to Washington, were also criticised by opposition parties, with the Liberal Democrats saying Mandelson should not be “telling President Zelenskyy what to do”.
In an interview with ABC News, Mandelson, who was Keir Starmer’s choice to try to maintain ties with the second Donald Trump administration, said there was a need for a “very radical reset” after Trump and his vice-president, JD Vance, berated Zelenskyy in the Oval Office on Friday.
“The reset has to consist of the United States and Ukraine getting back on the same page, President Zelenskyy giving his unequivocal backing to the initiative that President Trump is taking to end the war and to bring a just and lasting peace to Ukraine,” Mandelson said.
“And the Europeans too, they need to back the calls for a ceasefire, and – by the way – I think that Ukraine should be the first to commit to a ceasefire and defy the Russians to follow.”
Asked whether this was government policy, Luke Pollard, the armed forces minister, replied: “No.” He told Sky News: “It’s certainly right that Ukrainians want peace. I think of all the people on our continent that want peace, the Ukrainians want it the most.
“But we’re still in discussions, diplomatic engagement with our European, US and Ukrainian friends as to the shape of that deal. It’s certainly right that the war could stop tomorrow if President Putin stopped his illegal and unprovoked aggression. He could stop this war.”
Asked if Mandelson had been incorrect with his comments, Pollard said: “That’s not government policy.”
Earlier, senior figures in the Lib Dems and Conservatives criticised Mandelson’s intervention. Ed Davey, the Lib Dem leader, tweeted: “What is Mandelson up to? You cannot square what the prime minister said this morning with this. What is the government’s actual position? Our man in DC should be securing US protection for our brave Ukrainian allies, not telling President Zelenskyy what to do.”
James Cleverly, a former Conservative foreign secretary, said: “The UK ambassador to Washington isn’t meant to communicate his own opinion, he is meant to communicate the UK government opinion. Lammy and Starmer need to grip this.”

New resolution to do something positive for the world every time I find myself enraged by "the news".
So far today I have joined a nature conservation organisation, donated money to #Ukraine and spent an hour researching wildflowers for a bare piece of ground nearby to attract solitary bees, hoverflies + other pollinators that I will finalise planting this spring.
At this rate the world will be a much better place by next Christmas.
And it turns out that it really does help.
“People Will Die”: The Trump Administration Said It Lifted Its Ban on Lifesaving Humanitarian Aid. That’s Not True.

Organizations that provide vital care for desperate and vulnerable people around the world have been forced to halt operations, turn away patients and lay off staff. “I’ve never seen anything that scares me as much as this,” one doctor said.

UK newspaper The Independent warns that Donald Trump's #misinformation about Ukraine and Zelensky threatens democracy and empowers authoritarian regimes. His distorted narratives risk global stability, calling for a strong response from leaders and the media.
Confronting Trump’s disinformation is essential to defending democratic values. Leaders like Keir Starmer set an example by standing firmly with #Ukraine. Silence only strengthens dangerous narratives.

A friend asks, how can Trump abandon millions to invaders in Ukraine then complain about ‘Canada stooping so low as to use ELECTRICITY, that so affects the life of innocent people, as a bargaining chip and threat’?
Kōbō Abe, who wrote thoughtfully about crime in his dystopian, edge-of-society prose offers a helpful point:
‘The cleverest thief is the one who pretends he’s been robbed.’

Ukraine is a sovereign nation and is not giving anything to the invader, war criminal, mass murderer. Where are the US and UK who guaranteed Ukraine's security and sovereignty?
Do not repeat the putin propaganda that Ukraine is giving anything. Putin must abide by the Minsk agreement and Budapest Memorandum.
1. Ukraine enters the EU.
2. Ukraine enters NATO.
3. Russia will withdraw to pre-2014
boundaries.
4. Russia will return all kidnapped children and POWs.
5. Russia will pay to rebuild Ukraine.
6. Putin surrenders to ICC to stand trial for his war crimes against Ukraine.
War criminal Putin GTFO of Ukraine.
