The fact that the UN Charter has NO mechanism to remove a permeant member (oh say when they are committing genocide on another member state, violating the charter) of the UN Security Council is insanity. Either amend the charter or disband the council & start something different.

I hope everyone realizes the historic moment of the meeting today in Germany. 40 countries rallied against one. The world is against Putin and Russia. Against the illegal invasion of Ukraine. Against evil. Russia must withdrawal all forces from Ukraine. Now!

Great! Now let’s do the same in the U.S. npr.org/2022/05/10/109…

My grandfather fought in World War II. I personally think he would be embarrassed by what we have allowed Putin to do in Ukraine. Never again was supposed to mean something.

Do you know what works well at stopping armored vehicles (most), wheeled vehicles, soldiers. Razor wire. Stacked three high. Nasty to cut out of tracks/wheel wells. Have any #Kyiv ? If so, get it out!! In urban. String between two bldgs #UkraineRussiaWar #porcupine

The best response to Russia’s strike on NATO territory, killing Polish/NATO citizens is overwhelming immediate increase in lethal military aid to Ukraine so they can end the war quickly. Give them ATACMS for f**k sake. Tanks, IFVs, planes, send it all.

While it is clear a Ukrainian counteroffensive in Kherson is happening, recent reports say Putin has fired 6 more top generals, sidelined his Defense Minister, and is directly commanding the Ukraine war. That is a great recipe for failure. #SlavaUkraini dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

BREAKING: Reports of stand still traffic jams on the Kerch bridge (the bridge linking Ukrainian Crimea to Russia). Other reports of explosion in Crimea.
🙏 Hoping Ukraine struck the Kerch Bridge again!

You must choose a side. You’re either pro-Ukraine or pro-Russia. You’re pro-good guys or pro-evil guys. Yes, I do try to make objective assessments of the military and political situation. But I am or course pro-Ukrainian (good guys), pro-freedom, pro-democracy, pro-laws of war.

This was my M2 Bradley in Baghdad, Iraq, 2008. There are many like it, but this was mine. I am looking forward to seeing pictures of Bradleys in Ukraine soon. #ArmUkraineNow

Putin has lost his illegal war in Ukraine. He doesn’t have the means to break the will of the Ukrainian people to continue fighting. He doesn’t have the means to break the will of the west supporting Ukraine. The only question is how many Russian soldiers die before he stops?

A picture of Ukrainians studying resistance tactics, including my material!! I am both humbled and extremely proud. #urbanwarfare @ZelenskyyUa @KyivIndependent @KyivPost @CNN @AnaCabrera

Thank you Russia for your donations to Ukraine’s military. But seriously, it blows my old soldier mind the amounts of vehicles, ammo, supplies reported/seen abandoned by Russian soldiers - panic, no will to fight, broken. twitter.com/MrKovalenko/st…

"We really need to stop providing Ukraine just enough so it doesn't lose...we need to start giving Ukraine the things its asking for to win, to reclaim its sovereign territory." It was a honor to join @AnaCabrera on one of her last days @CNN 🥲 Best of luck in your next endeavor!

He is live on the floor of Congress! Standing ovation for @ZelenskyyUa For Ukraine!

A legend has been freed. Give the equivalent of a Medal of Honor. Protect him.

I hate that Ukraine has such a small spot (in some case zero coverage) in main stream news right now. Russians are continuing to bomb cities, moving on cities in Luhansk/Donetsk. #ArmUkraineNow
73
I disagree with anyone that says what we are seeing in Ukraine just happens in war. Just what Russia does, has done. Or just acts of untrained, undisciplined conscripts. IMO & from what I've seen this is organized, unit level, mass genocide. Either ordered/allowed systematically
74
I missed this. @TuckerCarlson critizied @ZelenskyyUa " the president of Ukraine arrived at the White House like the manager of a strip club and started to demand money. Amazingly, no one threw him out.” Tucker is a cancer to American ideas, hate monger. newsweek.com/tucker-carlson…
