Russia has killed 762 kids in Ukraine. These are documented cases. The real number is much higher.

One of the worst weeks for U.S.–Ukraine relations in recent memory. I'm outraged by the Trump administration's decisions and their potential consequences for Ukrainian lives. America should stand with democracies, not dictatorships.

This morning, a Russian guided bomb struck Good News Church in Kramatorsk, Ukraine, during Sunday morning hours. Pastor Viktor Pavenko has served this city for more than 35 years. His church runs an important bread ministry for the poor and for people who have no family left to care for them. Our teammate Karl Ahlgren slept in this building a few weeks ago while delivering aid. By God’s grace, no one was inside or injured in the attack on the church. Kramatorsk is under heavy bombardment. Ten days ago, a glide bomb hit buses in the city and killed at least 30 people. 🙏 Please pray for Pastor Viktor and his congregation as they work out how to keep feeding their neighbors. Pray for the people of Kramatorsk. And pray for those who launched this bomb, that their hearts would turn (Matthew 5:44). 🤲 Help us tell their story. Share this post. #Ukraine #Church #Kramatorsk #Breakingnews #PrayforUkraine

🇺🇦 Zelenskyy delivers a blunt message to the United States: “Just give us Starlink back. If you refuse, Ukraine will survive. We will continue defending ourselves with or without it. But why would you restrict a country fighting for its survival? Why make it harder for us to defend our people? I simply cannot understand the reasoning behind this decision. It is a mistake.” Ukraine isn’t asking America to fight its war. It’s asking America not to stand in the way of its defense.

🚨BREAKING: This new chart from @TheStudyofWar overlays Ukraine’s strikes on Russian refineries with the price of diesel fuel. There is NO CORRELATION between strikes on Russian refineries and spikes in the price of diesel here in the U.S. They are not driving up prices here.

This is a Russian jet-powered Shahed drone striking a supermarket in Odesa in broad daylight today. ​This is terrorism. Terrorists shouldn't be rewarded with lucrative business deals. They must be repelled, arrested, and prosecuted.

Just awful. The free world must respond to these atrocities. Indifference is immoral.
33 people killed. Simply travelling on a bus. This is the horrific reality of Russia’s war against Ukraine. Yesterday, a Russian guided aerial bomb struck a street in Kramatorsk, hitting two passenger buses. At least 33 people were killed and 18 injured. People going about their daily lives — commuting, travelling, trying to get home — were killed in a devastating attack on civilians. This comes just one day after Russia’s deadly strike on a residential building in Pryluky, which killed 22 people, including five children. These are not isolated tragedies. They are the daily reality of Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Not only was Ovechkin in a campaign ad for Putin last month, but he has been an open supporter of Putin for years. He should not be celebrated in free countries.

In 2012, under the CTR Program, we hosted a Chinese delegation visit to U.S. national laboratories and we conducted reciprocal visits to the Chinese Nuclear Security Training Center outside Beijing. Cooperation was productive and useful. We should try to re-engage.

justice.gov/usao-ma/pr/massa… A shocking story about a Massachusetts man who obtained plutonium-a key building block for building nuclear weapons-from Russia and sold it to dozens while also stockpiling illegal firearms. Many questions...

Sooner the better. He should not have returned this year after he decided he wanted to promote the brutal war on Ukraine. Russia has killed Ukrainian hockey players during this war and he expressed his support for that war before returning this year.
Alex Ovechkin addresses the media after announcing that the 2026-27 NHL season — his 22nd — will be his last. #ALLCAPS | @MedStarHealth

It’s official! With its stance, the @NHL has decided to serve as an advertisement for Russia’s imperialist war into the 2026–27 season as well.For the fifth consecutive year, the NHL’s position will help prolong 🇷🇺 war, leading to the deaths of far more people.Please share this!

Alex #Ovechkin could've retired as one of the most beloved players in NHL history. All he had to do was stay out of Russia's politics, the way almost every other Russian star NHLer has. Instead, he chose to support a ruthless war criminal. And now, he must live with the blowback.

Ovechkin may be retiring to Mordor after this season, but Canada should sanction him now and send a clear message: celebrity endorsement of Putin’s regime and Russia’s criminal war must have real consequences. @hasek_dominik @Capitals @AnitaAnandMP theglobeandmail.com/gift/a2e…

There have only been just over 200 signatures on this initiative. This petition can actually have impact, because with enough signtures, it will be presented for a vote in the House of Commons. Take time to sign in opposition of Putin's friend Ovechkin. ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P…
‼️Attention: Canadian NAFO fellas! 🇨🇦 Please sign and share the petition if you agree with its request. House of Commons petition e-7787 asks the Government of Canada to review Alexander Ovechkin’s activities and public support for the Russian government and consider sanctions under Canadian law, which could render him inadmissible to Canada. The petition is now officially open for signatures. Canadian citizens and residents can read the full petition and sign here: ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P…
