FFS, it's been finally time for almost a year.
"Is it Finally Time to Quit Twitter/X?
Elon Musk is turning the platform into a haven for hate, but does that mean we should quit instead of fighting?
(...) The Musk-ADL flap feels like an inflection point for those of us who still have Twitter/X accounts. Is it time to delete them?"

"Russians in occupied Mariupol start issuing insulin to only those with Russian passports
(...) "It is impossible to get help, vital treatment, get a job, or move freely without a passport. People have to choose – either get a document and have at least some rights, or die," Vadym Boichenko, the legally elected Mariupol Mayor, said."

"Nato should respond more aggressively to Russia, says Polish general
(...) [Gen Rajmund Andrzejczak] likened Russia to a gangster bringing guns to the table, and said the west by comparison was arriving unarmed in a panama shirt.
He said: “It looks like we are dealing with the gangsters, crazy bad boys. Everyone has gone to the park smoking cigars, the gangsters are putting guns on the table and we are in panama T-shirts and saying: ‘Well, I have got a gun, but I left mine at home, and my wife does not like the word.’
“Nato is a nuclear treaty organisation; it should be much more proactive and stronger to the Russians."

I can't believe I agree with Mitch McConnell on something, but here we are. We need to do even more for Ukraine so Russia is defeated quickly.
"Mitch McConnell says there’s ‘no excuse’ not to support more Ukraine aid
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) urged lawmakers Wednesday to continue supporting Ukraine, more than a year and a half after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of the country and as some Republicans have wavered in their commitment to sending aid.
(...) “It’s certainly not the time to go wobbly,” McConnell said. “Now, with Ukraine bravely defending its sovereignty and eroding Russia’s capacity to threaten NATO, it is not the time to ease up. … Helping Ukraine retake its territory means weakening one of America’s biggest strategic adversaries without firing a shot.” "
