- Radoslaw Sikorski- FM of Poland:
"Negotiations with Putin are impossible because his credibility is zero.
....Russia already has treaties with Ukraine. They have a 1990 agreement on recognizing the intra-Soviet border between Ukraine and Russia as the new international border. Russia, remember—not only the United States—but Russia is also a guarantor of Ukraine’s independence and inviolability of borders in the Budapest Memorandum of 1994. And they also have a bilateral border treaty specifically of 2003,
So anything but recovery of the international border requires us to say, well, he broke those treaties, but this one he’s going to honor. Really? If you were a Ukrainian, would you accept that?”
...........
That is exactly how it is..
the Russians violated everything that could possibly be violated🤷♀️
including international law!

- Sanna Marin -
Former PM of Finland:
"The only way we can avoid decades of war is to make sure that Ukraine pushes Russia completely out of Ukrainian territory.
Ukraine must win and regain its territories. I don’t think Putin should get another chance to save face when the war is over.”
........
Awesome woman☺️

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution today:
“In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek, a white man in Crawfordville. His value was placed at $1,400.
On another surviving document, Sheppard signed his name with an X.
More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter, Keisha Lance Bottoms, was elected governor of Georgia.
The distance between Crawfordville and the Governor’s Mansion can be measured in miles. The distance between a man once listed as property and his descendant, now elected to lead the state that sanctioned his enslavement, is harder to comprehend.”
Indeed.
“Georgia wanted Keisha”
If you watch only one video today, you should watch this edit with @SymoneDSanders from last night, speaking on the 92%.
And when I tell you I’ve watched it three or four times and get choked up every time— this one hits hard.

I need everyone to pause and acknowledge Zelensky in all of this.
Ukraine has been chipping away at bot farms...and they timed it perfectly so Trump and Elon and co wouldn't have time to "fix" the damage done to their false social media support
The drop-off in bots was immediate and exposed things exactly when it was most important
A hero in every sense, that guy.

We need to thank @ZelenskyyUa for bombing those Russian data centers. Seriously, doing that helped the US elections immensely. You'll all find out in the future why that is. Volodymyr Zelenskyy restored US election integrity and democracy.
Thank you Mr. Zelenskyy

Just to clarify, I intended this to be about establishment neoliberal Dems and their sensibilities, which do not reflect my viewpoint. They are, however, still dominant in the party, at least for the time being.

Important people know the backstory of this ad. @patrickgaspard gave me the idea to take her inexcusable gaffe and do something edgy with it that could get attention.
My content creator, @RyanSayles_ directed and edited it. He should be considered the breakout-star of this cycle. He’s going to be a giant in the media consultant game. He did GAME CHANGING work with SO little.
This will make his winning so much sweeter.
Four years ago, Pres. Biden nominated Scott Colom to serve as a federal judge in Mississippi.
Mississippi Republican Senator Roger Wicker supported the nomination of Mr. Colom. The state's other senator, Cindy Hyde-Smith, refused to do so based on absurd claims.
Mr. Colom reached to Sen. Hyde-Smith to address her concerns and respectfully point out misunderstandings on her part and appeal to her better angels.
Other prominent Mississippi Republicans reached out to Sen. Hyde-Smith asking her to reconsider and support Mr. Colom's nomination.
She still refused, effectively killing his nomination for no good reason.
She's now on the verge of losing her seat to Scott Colom, who would have never been a threat if she had supported his judicial nomination.

As an American, I want to personally say Thank You to this man. @ZelenskyyUa
By destroying Russian data centers he made a significant contribution to the positive outcome of our midterm elections. Thank you Sir!
When celebrating tonight’s election results, don’t forget to thank Ukraine for taking out those Russian data centers. Who knows how much nonsense was foiled.

I think we owe Zelenskyy a huge debt in bombing Russia data centers.
