Putin: “Russia is exploring the possibility of cooperation with the US in the Arctic.” Just a reminder of Trump’s lies that he wanted Greenland to keep Russia out of the Arctic.

Amid the brouhaha over allegations of limits on intelligence sharing and the proved throttling of Ukraine's Starshield, a 3rd way Trump is aiding Putin hasn't had much press - the blocking of supplies of paid-for Patriot interceptors. This delay is costing Ukrainian lives.

Trump admin arrests Colorado priest. Incarcerates him for over a year. Judge orders him released without charges. They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out. He's now being tested for latent TB: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...

Hello again and thanks for joining me on Day 1705 of Russia's attempt to remove Ukraine from the map. Time for another daily thread, with all the fact-checked news of the war in one handy thread, updated throughout the day, every single day, without fail.

This is just 🎯 😭They know there is not going to be much consequenses!

Saturday 24 October 2026 Did you know today is United Nations Day? Ah, how I long for the day when the UN was a force for good and stability. It's now effectively held hostage by malign actors. It's one big reason Ukraine is still fighting for survival on Day 1704. Here's my daily🧵

Ukraine will be the last nail on the trump/musk coffin

Twenty-one ballistic missiles hit Kyiv while another round of talks moved closer. Russia’s attack killed two people and injured 34. Ukraine also reported a major underground counteroffensive near Kupiansk as Washington, Kyiv and Moscow moved toward renewed technical talks.

It should be illegal for Israel’s top arms producer to purchase a Canadian company. Elbit Systems is complicit in the genocide of Palestinians. Cancel the Canada-Israel Free Trade Agreement, enact sanctions and a two-way arms embargo now. www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/ar...

President Zelenskyy: If [Ukraine is fighting] without United States' support, it's very difficult. But if the United States will support Putin - it's unbelievable, it's a tragedy. Of course, if these two countries will be together, of course we will not prevail. And we will not be able to stand.

Day 1698 of Russia's all-out war on Ukraine, and 4,623 days since Putin started his invasion of now occupied Crimea. A late start to the daily thread today, after last night's very late finish, but as always, I am here with all the important news in one thread.

Free weekend update is out. This was the week when the USA-Russia alliance was made formal, to even the most ardent skeptics. And its reality was signed in Ukrainian blood. Hopefully now Ukraine, and Europe, will understand what they must do. phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/weekend-up...

The maples are beautiful at this time of the year...

Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski to Al Jazeera: “Since January of last year, the US has not contributed a single cent to the defence of Ukraine. “We are doing it, Europe.”

El-Sayed: JD Vance called me a little weasel today. No, what you’re talking about is a fucking wolverine.

NEW: Trump administration figures are threatening key Ukrainian officials, including Commander in Chief Mykhailo Drapatyi, as the farce over Trump’s non-existent “energy truce” enters its second day. With Tim Zadorozhnyy for @kyivindependent.com. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...

“October is the month that seems All woven with midsummer dreams; She brings for us the golden days That fill the air with smoky haze; She brings for us the lisping breeze, And wakes the gossips in the trees, Who whisper near the vacant nest Forsaken by its feathered guest.”

Ten to one: Russia's September, by one NATO official's count Russia had over 50,000 casualties last month, up to 28,000 of them killed, a senior NATO military official told Bloomberg. 🔗 euromaidanpress.com/2026/10/12/t...

I am tired of hearing that Ukraine should compromise. Compromise what? Our homes? Our families? Our right to exist? Why is the victim always expected to sacrifice more?

REALITY CHECK: Trump's statement is nonsense and Putin will continue attacking Ukraine's energy infrastructure - as well as schools, hospitals, bridges, and residential buildings.

Welcome to THE daily Ukraine thread on Day 1691 of Russia's full-invasion of its peaceful neighbour. But the feeling in Ukraine is that they are now fighting a criminal Putin regime supported by Iran, North Korea, China & now the U.S. Yet a proud country stands defiant 💙💛

Trump is making American taxpayers send cash to Putin. No diesel fuel will ever come from Russia. Prices in the U.S. won’t go down because the cause of fuel inflation is Trump’s disastrous war against Iran. Americans will get nothing from the “deal” except ridicule and disgrace.

Day 1690 and Ukraine woke up incredibly angry this morning. "Used", "betrayed" and "disgusted" just 3 of the words most commonly heard, as the former leader of the free world managed to tarnish the reputation of the U.S. yet more. I've never missed a day. This is the daily 🧵

⬇️ USA will now directly fund the murder of Ukrainians. Shame on you!

Putin throws lifeline to try to save Trump in the midterms. In return, American dollars go to Russia and get put toward killing innocent Ukrainians. Trump/Russia right out in the open. www.dailymail.com/news/article...

The last day of the working week is here. But there are no days off on the frontline, no rest for a country trying to survive, protect freedom and democracy. It's Day 1689 of the monumental struggle against a not only corrupt, but psychopathic regime in Moscow I've done this every day, here's the🧵

25 more Ukrainians 'kidnapped' by Russia, says ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets He's called on the UN and Red Cross to ensure the group's returned safely to Ukraine, having been forcibly "evacuated" by invaders in Kharkiv region.

Canadian poet Anne Carson has won the Nobel Prize for literature. What a great honour. Congratulations.

russians kill children, women and men, the young and those whose hair has turned silver. russians destroy homes where someone had breakfast yesterday. They burn warehouses full of books. putin is evil. But this evil has hands that kill, destroy and burn.

🕯️ Russian missile strike on a residential building in Pryluky killed an entire family. A 58-year-old grandmother, her 37-year-old daughter, and her 1-year-old grandson. Five children and 14 adults were killed in the building.

Corruption of this kind is why the Democrats need to freeze or cut back US defense spending of they take control of Congress. If you actually care about US security, funding this is destructive.

This coffee shop could be anywhere in Canada like right up the street from my place a few blocks away. People finding connection, conversation and a semblance of peace and quiet. That said, it is in Kyiv, Ukraine where the soulless beast in Moscow is desperate to destroy it. He must be stopped.

50% of modern medicines come from plants. 70% of cancer treatments come from nature. The Amazon holds 10% of all life on Earth. We've studied <1% of it for medicine. We are cutting down cures faster than we can discover them. Every forest cleared = A cure lost.

Just a reminder that there is a city in Europe where Russian drones hunt civilians 24/7.

"Among the first to appear before the judge was Angel, a 13-year-old. He had no attorney. “Would you like to request voluntary departure, or should I issue a removal order?” the judge asked “I don’t know,” Angel said, bursting into tears: “I have no one. I have nothing.” www.cnn.com/2026/09/28/p...
