In Kharkiv today, murderhappy Russians struck a medical facility, injuring 5 people. ​Trump wants us to stop striking russian oil refineries and let them keep destroying our homes, hospitals, schools, and kindergartens with impunity. He blames us for fighting back against pure terrorism.

Adios, Dolly Parton, who endured decades of sexism and shitty jokes from shitty men only to outlive them all with wit, kickass music, and a heart as big as the Smokies. Generations of kids are smarter and kinder because of her giving a damn about them. The rare icon who deserved all her glory.

FOX: What do you need most from America? ZELENSKYY: First, licenses for Patriots, to increase production of anti-ballistic missiles. Second, we need winter package of anti-ballistic missiles. Third, we need more sanctions on Putin. Otherwise, he will not sit down and negotiate.

You sang a different song when you forced us to disarm in 1994, guaranteeing our security, only to be "sick" of sending not your soldiers, oh no, but only weapons, now when we are under attack by a ruthless terrorist country which burns families in their beds while they sleep.
