This is it. This is exactly what we're fighting for.

@JamesFallows I never forgot the day I took the T to the JFK Federal Building in Boston to swear in as a naturalized US citizen. Since that day I have always felt that I could die for this country and have taken “ask what you can do for your country” to heart.

@NateSilver538 A study looking at how oncologists are addressed at our annual conference found that women were much more likely than men to be introduced and addressed by first name. So there might be more than just “first name just has more of ring to it,” Mr. Silver. ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JC…

Yeah, sometimes the first name just has more of a ring to it. Bernie. Ringo. Elon. LeBron. Conan. Transportation Secretary Mayor Pete.

@YAppelbaum @davidfrum @RadioFreeTom Calling a thug a thug and a butcher a butcher is the hallmark of courage. Those who contort themselves linguistically to appease dictators are cowards who get nothing but humiliation in the end. This is one of @POTUS’s greatest speeches.

“The words of every world leader matter right now, and none more than those of the president of the United States. We should now let his remark pass for what it was—an outburst—and get back to helping Ukraine save its independence,” writes @RadioFreeTom theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

1/10 9 years of strict regime. My space flight is taking a bit longer than expected - the ship is caught in a time loop. It occurred to me that my role in this saga is similar to that guy from Interstellar.

If you’re so afraid of what a dictator might do if he loses that you’re letting him win, it’s time to reevaluate both your strategy and your character.

There are two groups of people. Those who think the Kremlin wants a neutral Ukraine and those who think it wants a vassal Ukraine. The first group is not to be taken seriously

@SpokespersonCHN It’s not political courage to be afraid of speaking up against war crimes committed by Putin. It’s not political courage to be afraid of free elections in one’s own country.

The more complex the situation, the greater the need to remain cool-headed and rational. Whatever the circumstances, there is always a need for political courage to create space for #peace and leave room for political settlement.

@SpokespersonCHN Your government, headed by dictator Xi, lacks the courage to vote against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, lacks the morality to know what is right from wrong, and lacks the wisdom to avoid standing side by side with a killer. You are a spineless embarrassment of a human being.

The claim that #China is on the wrong side of history is overbearing. It is the #US that is on the wrong side of history.

The faint hearted should not read this. Yesterday, at our own risk, we left Mariupol under gunfire. We stayed overnight in a field in a gray zone. It was freezing outside, thank God we are alive. We are alive to scream that everyone who stayed in Mariupol needs help!

! Russia's main propaganda "news program" tonight.

Putin invaded Ukraine in our name. But we, true Russians, are against the war. Yes, we are responsible for not stopping Putin but we are a friend of Ukraine. TrueRussia.org gathers Russians who want to support Ukrainian refugges.

Every Russian has learned about the Siege of Leningrad during World War II. Sadly, history has repeated itself—but now it’s the Russian government cruelly starving Ukrainian cities.

Shared by Zelensky just now but independently confirmed: video of aftermath of a Russian strike on the maternity hospital in Mariupol. “People, children are under the wreckage. Atrocity! How much longer will the world be an accomplice ignoring terror? Close the sky right now!”

FAITH OR FEAR THREAD -- My Friend in Kyiv Last night I texted a Ukrainian friend of mine in Kyiv. Once long ago, he stayed with me in Minsk, at risk to himself, when I was afraid. Today, he fights for his homeland, for values many of us in America often take for granted.

"I'm just crying. I promise you, I'm just crying." Oleksandr Zinchenko has thanked the world for standing with Ukraine in an emotional interview about the Russian invasion of his homeland. Watch in full on Football Focus tomorrow at 12pm on @bbciplayer
