🇺🇦Ukraine always welcomes its people home. “Welcome home!” — these are the words our Defenders hear as they return to their homeland. Through the bus windows, they see people waving flags. Tears of joy in their eyes. Brothers-in-arms beside them. And home ahead. ❗️This moment matters to every one of us. Because every single person who returns — is a victory.

🇺🇸🇺🇦🇷🇺 LOSING GROUND LOSING MEN "Russia not only can't defeat Ukraine, but it's actually moving in wrong direction in terms of casualties and territory, and dreaded winter is over. Ukrainians never going to quit, and for European countries best way to defend Europe is by making sure that Ukraine wins." - HODGES 🇺🇸 Seasonal pauses are gone now drones see everything snow mud or night doesn’t change targeting cycles anymore In some sectors casualty ratios are climbing while advances stay under 1 km over weeks that tradeoff burns combat power fast Ukraine keeps pressure constant while Russia is losing the ability to convert losses into any real territorial gain

BREAKING RIGHT NOW Iranians in London are flooding the streets after Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi’s call to support the people of Iran. Media completely blacks it out. The left pretends it doesn’t exist. Cry harder, lefties.

While Orban continues to get shouted off stage with "Russians go home", opposition leader Magyar's crowds only grow anywhere he goes. We still have no doubt that Orban will refuse to leave no matter the result, then it'll be crowds like this that matter

Estonia cancels €500M combat vehicle purchase, boosts drone defense. This is exactly the kind of decision that shows Estonia is paying attention to the reality of modern war. Legacy platforms and heavy armor still have a role, but their dominance is fading in a battlefield shaped by drones, AI, and persistent surveillance. Estonia understands that if you are serious about national defense, especially on Russia’s doorstep, you cannot afford to prepare for the last war. You have to prepare for the one that is already happening. This is a smart, disciplined move, and it deserves recognition. The rest of NATO needs to take a hard look at this and start making real changes. Investment has to shift toward drone and AI enabled capabilities at scale, not small test programs. Short range air defense must focus on fast, effective systems designed to defeat drones at low altitude. Not everything needs to be missile based. Radar guided gun systems in the 30mm range and below are going to be critical when facing mass drone threats. At the same time, we need to build depth. National level stockpiles of drone components, batteries, and repair parts are essential. Standardized training programs must be implemented across the force so every soldier understands how to operate drones, counter them, and survive under constant aerial observation. This capability cannot sit at the top. It has to be pushed down. We need company level attack drone teams as a standard, with that capability extending down to the platoon level. That is how you increase combat power without increasing manpower. Small, well trained drone teams are already delivering precision effects that used to require heavy weapons, indirect fire, or air support. When that capability is embedded directly into tactical units, leaders gain immediate options to find, fix, and strike targets in real time without waiting on higher headquarters. At the company level, these teams should be organized, trained, and equipped to conduct continuous operations alongside infantry, armor, and artillery. At the platoon level, smaller, agile drone elements should support maneuver in close contact. This creates layered capability across the formation and dramatically increases lethality, responsiveness, and survivability. This is not a future problem. It is happening now. The battlefield has already changed, and the window to adapt is closing. The nations that move now will be ready. The ones that wait will learn the hard way. Слава Україні. Героям слава. 🇺🇦 news.postimees.ee/8449574/estoni…

This is very moving. At yesterday's anti-Orbán concert in Heroes' Square in Budapest, the crowd cheer ex- posterboy for the Hungarian army, the erstwhile face of its recruitment campaign, now turned whistleblower Captain Szilveszter Pálinkás, visibly moved by his reception👇 He recently said : "Our government's attitude to Ukraine is an absolute joke. Orbán's Moscow-friendly stance has only weakened our homeland" 🇭🇺🇪🇺

I can hardly believe this, but this is Day 500 of protests in Georgia! For 500 days, protesters have gathered every day in 8+ cities despite heavy fines, mass arrests, and abuse. The pro-Russian Georgian Dream regime must end.

🇺🇦 Boris Johnson secretly visited the Zaporizhzhia front and said that Ukraine will definitely become free again The former prime minister spent two days on the frontline — he met with soldiers of the 65th Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, visited frontline settlements, and spoke with local residents.He shared his impressions of the trip in an article for the British outlet Daily Mail. “The reason I came to Zaporizhzhia is that Putin is desperately — and unsuccessfully — trying to capture it,” Johnson writes. 🫶“After 48 hours on the front, I am more convinced than ever that Ukrainians will win, that one day they will rid themselves of Putin’s armies, like orcs, and that this beautiful, rich country will be free.”

Zelensky just reminded JD Vance that calling Ukrainian territory a "scrap of land" isn't a negotiating position. It's an insult. With full diplomatic courtesy and zero diplomatic softness, Zelensky explained what Vance apparently doesn't know: the territory in question has 200,000 residents, strong fortifications, and sits exactly where Russia wants to build a bridgehead for its next offensive. Giving it up doesn't end the war. It stages the next one. Then the closing line: "Every square meter of our land is Ukrainian land and, with all due respect to any of our partners, it is definitely not theirs." There's no misreading that sentence.

🚨 BREAKING: Zelensky proposes a defensive military alliance that includes the EU + Ukraine, Turkey, Norway, and the UK. This will enable control of the seas, skies, and land of all Europe as the United States withdraws from NATO. The alliance will be stronger than Russia.

Polling 20 points ahead of the Russian-backed kleptocrat Victor Orban for an election that's only 4 days away, opposition candidate Peter Magyar tells both the Americans and Russians to get the hell out of Hungary's politics.

ABSOLUTE BOMBSHELL. Leaked intercepts completely expose the Hungarian government. An expert journalist reveals Hungary's Foreign Minister is secretly taking orders directly from Russia's Sergey Lavrov like a recruited agent. They are actively sabotaging NATO from the inside!

BREAKING: Mohseni Ejei, head of Iran’s judiciary, orders faster executions of detained protesters in Iran. No one in the media seems to care, please share if you do!

Iranian woman in Sweden: “Pedophilia is legal in the Islamic Republic of Iran. Little girls are married off to adult men. We are trying to raise awareness, but Western feminists are completely ignoring us.”

A truly statesmanlike response to Vance from Hungary's probable next PM @magyarpeterMP "Hungarian history isn't written in Washington or Moscow but by Hungarians, in our villages & towns. We decide our own fate. We want a humane Hungary in the heart of Europe"🇭🇺🇪🇺 My Eng s/t👇

This is Ameneh Soleimani. A doctor. Sentenced to death by Islamic regime terrorists for treating wounded protesters. ⚠️ Make this go viral - now.

Luke Fickell on the #Badgers’ in-state recruiting momentum:

🚨 LEAKED AUDIO REVEALS THE TRUTH! Before striking the railway infrastructure in Iran, Israel directly called the Iranian train station managers. They warned them to evacuate all personnel and stop civilians from boarding the trains. Why? Because the Islamic Republic had maliciously CUT THE INTERNET to keep citizens in the dark and put them in danger! Think about this staggering contrast: The IRGC begs families to send their children to act as human shields, while Israel makes direct phone calls to bypass the internet blackout and save Iranian lives. This is the most humane method of war against the most inhumane terrorists on earth.

Die Lage in der Ukraine – und man kann es inzwischen klar sagen: Die letzten Wochen liefen militärisch deutlich besser für Kyjiw. Russland kommt an der Front kaum voran. Die Linie ist faktisch eingefroren – und das ist ein Vorteil für die Ukraine. Gleichzeitig passiert etwas Entscheidendes: Die Ukraine trägt den Krieg zunehmend nach Russland hinein. Angriffe auf Öl-Infrastruktur, Logistik, strategische Knotenpunkte – und das in einer Intensität, die wir so bisher nicht gesehen haben. Auch im Schwarzen Meer zeigt sich: Russland hat die Kontrolle verloren, die es zu Beginn hatte. Das ist keine kleine Entwicklung. Das ist eine strukturelle Verschiebung. Und genau hier liegt der Punkt: Dieses Momentum ist nicht garantiert. Wenn Europa jetzt nicht nachlegt – bei Munition, Luftverteidigung und Finanzierung – wird dieses Zeitfenster wieder kleiner. So eine Phase gab es schon einmal. Und wir haben sie verstreichen lassen. Die Ukraine zeigt gerade, dass sie den Krieg aktiv gestalten kann. Die Frage ist, ob wir diesmal rechtzeitig handeln
