Wellllll, I'm officially 36 today 🥳🎂 Still teaching history, still yelling about Ukraine, and still causing a reasonable amount of chaos 😏 My biggest birthday wish this year? Ukrainian victory 🇺🇦 So if anyone wants to make this birthday girl VERY happy, throw a few bucks toward @U24_gov_ua, a Ukrainian charity, or a brigade you trust! Seriously, it would make my whole day 🥹💙💛

My decision on Russia is a very simple one. I am in the process of negotiating Peace in the war between Russia and Ukraine, and don’t want to do anything that will drive, foolishly, Russia away from the bargaining table. Great progress is being made, and that includes current hostage negotiations! Signing that document at this time will do that, and I can sign it later, or any time that I want! Perhaps more importantly, Russia is doing very little, if anything, to help the Islamic Republic of Iran, compared to what they could be doing, and I want to keep it that way, and will, unless stupid people get in the way. Lastly, Zelenskyy is using Diesel Refineries in Russia as a target, knowing that these attacks are seriously hurting the world diesel markets, including those in the United States. Farmers, ranchers, and businesses of all kinds are suffering greatly from this, but Russia is, nevertheless, sending, at a low price, millions of barrels of diesel to the World. Zelenskyy doesn’t care, and frankly, with all of the money that Europe is famously giving him, and that Crooked Joe Biden gave him in the past, he doesn’t want to end this war, and probably never did. He could have made a better deal two years ago than he can now. His country is in shambles, a large portion of his land is lost, his oceans and seas are gone, and his male population is low, wounded, and/or dead. I WANT THIS WAR END!

Winston Churchill and Volodymyr Zelensky should never be mentioned in the same breath. Churchill led Britain through its darkest hour and helped save our country. Zelensky, meanwhile, continues to demand billions from British taxpayers. Comparing the two is an insult to Churchill's legacy.

Hi from Kramatorsk! Four years ago today I joined ZSU. A lot has happened since. I’ve never been happier or more proud to serve. Slava Ukraini. Victory is Ukraine.

“On the other hand, the sadistic nature of this decision is, of course, shocking. I have a great deal of psychological work ahead of me to process and come to terms with my own feelings about this. After all, Latvia is a place I genuinely loved and considered home. And, naturally, I would like to be of service to Latvia. I pose no threat to this country. I believe the threat to Latvia comes from those who alienate people like me, commit unlawful acts, engage in extrajudicial political repression, and harshly punish individuals for their honest views—for attempting an intellectually honest analysis of the political situation and the military conflict.” My interview with @meduzaproject meduza.io/feature/2026/10/13…
