From 6 January 2021 riots on Capitol Hill to 7 January chaos inside the House today:

Trumpism is a recipe for disaster, destroying everything and everyone who embraces it !

Drop the Schadenfreude, Viktor.

The European Parliament will take immediate action to suspend, investigate and punish those responsible… while you’ve been blocking any anti-corruption efforts for decades.

The danger from the extreme right is terrifying.

The responsibility of politicians using the megaphone on every type of discontent, Covid, migration and Russian-style views of the Ukraine war is huge.

Time to push back !

Putin & co hate Russia almost as much as they hate Ukraine!
