Likely thanks to Russian targeting info, if not weaponry. @SecRubio, do you still say that Russian aid to Iran is “insignificant” after the destruction of this $700m plane and how many US casualties?

It is beyond pathetic to watch European jets actively shoot down drones in the Middle East while refusing to do the exact same thing over Ukraine. We are willing to militarily defend airspace on another continent but let a European nation face genocide alone

AI really can help education: Randomized controlled experiment on high school students found a GPT-4o powered tutor that personalized problems for students raised final test scores by .15 SD, "equivalent to as much as six to nine months of additional schooling by some estimates"

KASPAROV: "Putin is war. He makes no secret about his plans. If you look at Russian propaganda, economy, social life, every element of Russia today, it’s all war. War became the oxygen that people breathe in Russia. The propaganda 24/7 is not just about winning against Ukraine - it’s ideological revenge against the free world for what Putin believes was the loss in the Cold War. Russia today is a continuation of the Russian Empire. We’re not dealing with a return of the Soviet Union. It’s a much more powerful virus that has been mutating over centuries - the crazy idea of a Russian Empire that is driving Putin into this endless war."

Sean Penn missed the Oscars ceremony where he received an Oscar, and went to Ukraine instead. Thank you for standing with Ukraine, Sir! Congratulations!

Trump last night: „We are helping NATO with Ukraine, so NATO should help the US to keep the Strait of Hormuz open.“ This is a lie. Trump suspended all help to Ukraine with his inauguration. Not a single cent is going to Ukraine. European countries are buying US weapons. This is not helping, this purchasing. When I buy my goods in a store, then the store is not „helping“, it is making business. Trump threatened allies around the globe with invasion and denigrated them at every step, including fallen soldiers in Afghanistan. Putin on the other hand got a pass, received a warm welcome in Alaska and even got sanctions lifted. Those are the facts.

🇸🇪 Sweden has detained the Russian shadow fleet vessel CAFFA (flying the flag of Guinea), which was en route to Saint Petersburg! The ship is on Ukraine's sanctions list for transporting grain from occupied Crimea to Syria. Bravo Sweden, keep it up 👏

KASPAROV: "The United States, this great country, that I used to see back then in the Soviet Union on the other side of the Iron Curtain as the beacon of freedom, the guardian of global democracy, is openly siding with forces of tyranny, with authoritarian regimes. Yeah. It's siding with Putin. It's openly supporting Viktor Orbán. The US Secretary of State is flying to Hungary to support the man who is opposing the entire European Union, preventing them from helping Ukraine, and corrupt like hell. Nobody doubts that he's on the payroll of Vladimir Putin."

OK, MAGA. Russia is giving Iran intelligence to help target American forces. Ukraine is offering to help defend American troops from Iranian drones. So tell me again: which one is the “enemy,” and which one is the ally?

We get Storm Shadow from the UK and it's helpful. This is a very good weapon. We also get SCALP from France, and we received a limited number of ATACMS from the United States in the past. But that's it. We didn't get anything else from other countries that goes beyond 200 or 250 kilometers. Never. All these long-range capabilities – 500 to 1,000 kilometers and beyond – were produced in Ukraine. From an interview with The Independent (2/3)

I opriginally thought this was an incorrect statement but its perfectly right. If Ukraine was able to destory Russian Shahed production, Russian would have been purchasing Irans stockpiles. Now the US has to deal with 80,000 Iranian HESA Shahed 133 raining down on assets.

🚨Zelenskyy: The Russians have a major personnel problem. They’re becoming weaker. It’s a new feeling for us — and it’s not a bad one. The enemy’s personnel losses are starting to add up. “We're sensing Russian weakness in certain areas. It's a new feeling. This doesn't mean we should let our guard down, let me explain. We can't relax, can't think the enemy's given up, can't think their numbers have dropped. But what's important, very important, is that personnel-wise, they feel a bit weaker. No time for training there. So they have a major personnel problem, in our view. Of course, all our personnel challenges are known, we have no secrets. We have, well, these issues, they exist. But still, we'll do everything to strengthen our guys, our army. But this feeling, it's not a bad one. I think the monthly casualty numbers are starting to have an effect. Again, I don't want to sound like some pseudo-optimist, but I'm just saying that, in my view, the enemy personnel losses are starting to add up. That's what I mean. So we'll see how things go moving forward”, - Zelenskyy, on Tuesday, Mar 3rd, 2026

The US is now wasting $4 million Patriot missiles on $20,000 Iranian drones. "Stupid is as stupid does." If the US had a professional president, he would ask Ukraine for technical assistance with cheap drone interceptors, but the US has Trump who instead insults Zelensky.

But won't shoot down Iranian drones over European Ukraine launched by Russia, likely because Trump doesn't want them to.

Rubio is visiting Fico and Orban, who aren’t ideologically aligned but are the most anti-Ukraine, pro-Russia leaders. There is no diplomatic or geopolitical reasoning for the White House to prioritize their success unless directed to do so by the Kremlin. 2/2

A few things about this unprecedented disgrace. One, the United States needs nothing from Hungary that would depend on the outcome of this election, but clearly Donald Trump does. Two, weakening Europe is a hobby for MAGA, but an existential necessity for Putin. 1/2
