Can't stand it when I see people whine about the prospect of a big European war, from somewhere in London, California, France, Spain, or Massachusetts. If this war widens, it's frontline will be in Poland, the Baltics, and Finland.

Happy new year. To all of you. But especially to any Ukrainian reading this.

Happy New Year and may all your wishes come true and goals be met. May our enemies have the worst year of their wretched lives, may all fascists and oligarchs be crushed under the heel of justice. Bring victory to the righteous and hell to the tyrants. #3E

Anna Paulina Luna is a traitor who works for Russia

Felicitaciones and felicitações, Spain and Portugal. For 40 years, you’ve been part of our Union. Four decades of sharing your exceptional culture and innovative spirit with us. Four decades of your countries growing stronger inside the EU. Congratulations!

"Russia is approaching a grim milestone: by mid-January, President Vladimir Putin's 'special military operation' in Ukraine will have dragged on longer than the war on the Eastern Front that began with the German invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941 and ended with the fall of Berlin

Happy New Year you lovely people. A reminder that 2026 should be the year you leave X (if you haven’t already!)

"The drone strike likely never happened. Peskov said Russia could provide no evidence, and urged the press to take the Kremlin’s word for it. No, we won’t. Putin’s entire war is a lie. Just as he did in Alaska, Putin was offered peace and instead spat in America's eye."

unvarnished gutter racism and Nazism from the president. a disgrace to our country.

Trump could have avoided being adjudicated for rape, by providing a DNA sample; If he was innocent…

Right now I wouldn't encourage any non citizen to come to the United States unless absolutely necessary this administration will not welcome you & their is a good chance you'll be harassed or arrested because of how you look or your politics

Trump has harsher words for the Governor of Colorado than he does Vladimir Putin. That is because Donald and his idiotic family have been owned by the Russian mob for decades and YES they know ALL about his sordid history with Jeffrey Epstein. Stop him in 2026, USA.

When russia attacked Ukraine with the full scale war, I was shivering without control. It ended only when Ukraine liberated the Kyiv region.That moment gave me hope, the first sign that victory was possible.The fear of losing my country was immense. That day,I finally felt some air in my lungs again

The CIA and NSA have concluded that Ukraine did not attempt a drone strike on Putin’s residence in Novgorod region. CIA Director John Ratcliffe has briefed Trump on the findings. Hours later, Trump shared a New York Post article blaming Russia for blocking peace.

⚡️ CIA rejects Putin's claim of Ukrainian attack on his residence, CNN reports. The report confirms Ukraine's original denial and undercuts claims made by the Kremlin.

Joining the EU has been a magic ticket to prosperity for former Russian satellite states. Bulgaria is now going vertical. This will happen for Ukraine, and it's Putin's nightmare. Ukraine’s resources, size, brainpower and location assure it will make even Poland's success small on comparison.

Protests are spreading across Iran for a fourth day, with demonstrators calling for the end of the Islamic regime and demanding the return of exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi.

In order for you to believe that Russia is fooling Trump, you would need to believe Trump is an innocent bystander that is being given incorrect information & if only he had the right information he'd make the right choice, but that isn't the case. He's a fully aware accomplice.

I mean, let's talk about the obvious.

Why the Kremlin is now trying to derail the current trajectory of Ukraine-U.S. peace talks. 👇

On the last day of 2025, I tried to sum up in this free piece the big stories of the year. Boil it down, however, and one story surpasses all others, be that for the Russo-Ukraine war or global geopolitics overall. 2025 was the year when the USA changed sides open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

🇪🇺 Kallas: Russia’s claim that Ukraine recently targeted key government sites in Russia is a “deliberate distraction. No one should accept unfounded claims from the aggressor who has indiscriminately targeted Ukraine’s infrastructure and civilians since the start of the war.

I don't begrudge Vance et al seeking to prioritise Asia over Europe. I'd make same choice in their shoes. But what's happened is not a prioritisation (we see a new chimerical long war in the Americas), it's a chaotic & short-termist approach to Ukraine, and a needles diplomatic war on Euro allies.
