Trump’s Message to Ukraine Is Now Crystal Clear

The president’s actions over the past 72 hours look like an effort to force Kyiv to surrender.

@admiralstav.bsky.social

Zelenskyy tells NPR the White House threatened to cut off intel sharing with Ukraine. CBS News reports the US may have deliberately withheld warnings of Russian strikes on Kyiv that killed 6. If true, these reports are shameful and awful.

The Trump administration warns Ukraine it could cut off intel, Zelenskyy tells NPR

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sat down for an interview with NPR at a time of renewed tensions with the White House.

This is a stream of lies. Europe, not America, supports Ukraine. And the US has spent a fraction of the coat.

Scott Horton @robertscotthorton.bsky.social · 7h

Trump makes clear that he has turned on Ukraine and Zelenskyy and want to help Russia destroy them. The technical term for this conduct in wartime is perfidy, an act of betrayal involving deceit.

@thenerve.news

For the first time, the British government has acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 Brexit referendum.

So who did BBC Newsnight invite on to discuss what happened? Sergei Markov, Putin’s former spokesman.

Par for the course, says Nerve co-founder @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

Britain's right wing press are more concerned about Burnham going to a couple of sodding football matches than they were about a foreign secretary partying with a Russian agent having slipped his security team.
We see you.
