I can’t be the only person who worries about the people of #Ukraine being abandoned by America when the new administration takes over.

Feeling helpless over the endless Russian assault on #Ukraine? One way that I feel incrementally more connected to the plight of those impacted is by making a monthly contribution to the Ukraine mission of World Central Kitchen. www.wck.org

If you’ve ever found yourself on the receiving end of way more on-the-job responsibilities than you bargained for, please spare a care for #Ukraine’s President #Zelenskiy who is showing the world how to respond. #SlavaUkrainii

If #Ukraine can fight tenaciously against authoritarian aggression to defend their democracy, the very least we can do in America is to VOTE BLUE to defend ours. #Politics #SlavaUkrainii

U for #Ukraine which, like Afghanistan
Has ended an empire’s ambitious plan

The Biden decision to allow #Ukraine to use our weaponry against targets in #Russia is inflection point in the years long response to Putin’s unrelenting assault. History will determine whether it’s too late to make a difference, but for now, it’s all we have on which to hang our hopes.

While we’re distracted by Trump’s right-wing clowns and pickpockets, Russia’s assault on #Ukraine continues unabated. We ignore President #Zelenskiy’s requests for military aid at our peril. As long as Ukraine is under siege, no democracy is safe.

If for some reason you’re on the fence about voting for Biden, please VOTE for him to show your solidarity with the brave people of #Ukraine who are fighting to the death to save their democracy. The absolute least we can do (and we should do MUCH more) is to vote to defend OURS. Sitting out elections or casting a protest vote for a third party candidate risks handing America to Trump and Ukraine to Putin. Do NOT let that happen on your watch. #VoteBlue #Politics

U for #Ukraine - Russia’s boot on their throat
Please honor their struggle and go out and VOTE!

If you’re rightly worried about the fate of America’s democracy, and worried that our fully-compromised MAGA legislators will do all they can to hand #Ukraine over to Putin, VOTE. Show your solidarity with the brave #Ukrainian people. They’ve put on a master class in fighting for a democracy. They’ve risked their homes, jobs, and lives. The very least we can do is to VOTE for the future we want. #Politics

Please spare a thought for the long suffering dogs of #Ukraine who have their paws full trying to comfort their humans through endless war and destruction. #SlavaUkrainii

Almost two years ago, 400+ people participated a vigil for #Ukraine in my small North Carolina town. It’s time that we held more such vigils and showings of solidarity with the Ukrainian people in every community across America. Sadly, one reason for that would be to show our craven politicians that unless they support Ukraine’s war effort, we’ll vote them out in November. #SlavaUkrainii

If you’d like to show your solidarity with the courageous people of #Ukraine, there’s no easier option than VOTING. Show them that you value your democracy and your freedoms, and that you’ll elect leaders that honor our alliances and keep our promises. #SlavaUkrainii

#Ukraine needs our help more than ever. Putin is thrilled to see our MAGA Republican politicians helping his cause. #SlavaUkrainii

Let’s not forget #Ukraine

I bought a digital download of this painting by a Ukrainian artist on Etsy shortly after the start of the #Ukraine war but it seems universally relevant as war breaks out in #Israel.

Saluting #Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy who shows Americans and the world how one truly fights for one’s democracy.

Sorry, Mr. Kirby, but there’s no way to put a logical spin on Biden’s decision to supply #Ukraine with cluster bombs. I worked with a guy who had worked at the Watertown Arsenal designing cluster bombs during the Vietnam era. His job included calculating the optimal design for the bomblet fragments to hit the jugular vein of the average Vietcong-height victim. He was a very weird, creepy guy. Don’t know whether he gravitated to this job because of that, or whether the job made him that way.

Good morning from the #DogsOfCoSo to the #dogs of #Ukraine who have endured unimaginable horrors, all the while trying to absorb the stresses of their beloved humans. #SlavaUkrainii
