On Social Michael McFaul Putin and his army are not “cornered”. They could leave Ukraine at any time. Putin is a dictator. He does not need to “save face” in front of anyone. He could declare victory and order his troops home today, without any fear of someone or some group seeking to topple him. 13 May
On Social Michael McFaul This is absolutely disgusting because of course Nikonov knows what he saying is nonsense. I’ve known him for 30 years. He is not an idiot. He just blows with the wind. This is the new way the wind is blowing in Moscow. https://t.co/qDJqT4OeSr 18 April
On Social Michael McFaul Putin claimed today that he is “helping” people and saving Ukraine from Nazism. Just disgusting. 13 April
On Social Michael McFaul Putin's army was not strong enough to capture Mariupol, and "liberate" the citizens -- many of them ethnic Russians -- from the "Nazis." So instead they decided to slaughter or kidnap the residents and destroy the entire city. Barbarism in Europe. 27 March
On Social Michael McFaul "... more Western military assistance, especially weapons that can shoot down Russian airplanes and rockets or destroy artillery, is immediately needed for ending the war." https://t.co/qvA2U2MCy8 22 March
On Social Michael McFaul You'd be surprised at how many Russians, including public supporters of Putin, contact me to let me know that (1) Zelensky is not a Nazi, (2) this war is senseless, and (3) they hope for a ceasefire as soon as possible. Putin is out of touch with his own people. 20 March
On Social Michael McFaul Wow. Incredible bravery. Ukrainians, please know you have allies in Russia: https://t.co/MEaauX5J6F 15 March
On Social Michael McFaul As Putin is using increasingly the horrific tactic of bombing innocent civilians using long-range artillery, Ukraine needs the AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder Weapon Locating Systems. #NFZ does not protect against artillery. This weapon system does. 08 March
On Social Michael McFaul Poland needs to send their 27 MiG 29s fighter jets to Ukraine right now. Slovakia, Romania, and Bulgaria do so. The US. in turn needs to send Poland F16s. Same for our other allies. Get this deal done. Every day counts. Putin is bombing airfields every day. 07 March
On Social Michael McFaul Please NATO leaders, send all MIG fighter jets that we have -- 70 altogether, 27 alone in Poland -- to Ukraine right now. NOW! And once Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, and Slovakia send these planes, other NATO countries should send air reinforcements to these frontline states. 06 March
On Social Michael McFaul I had a long exchange last night with a FB follower in Rostov. It was so depressing. It was so shocking what he/she said about the war - just repeating Putin's lies. The disinformation bubble that Russians currently live in must be popped. 06 March
On Social Michael McFaul No American company should be operating in Russia right now -- no credit card companies, no accounting firms, no banks. If you are, you are subsidizing Putin's horrific war, his crimes against humanity. Stop now! Get out. 06 March
On Social Michael McFaul Настоящие патриоты России понимают, что путинская война - это полная катастрофа для российских национальных интересов. Так действуйте немедленно! Высокопоставленные чиновники Центробанка России, главы российских госпредприятий, губернаторы, увольняйтесь сейчас! 06 March
On Social Michael McFaul It is morally indefensible for the U.S. to still be importing Russian oil. 04 March
On Social Michael McFaul Short of direct military intervention, the world must use all means necessary to end Putin's horrific war in Ukraine. Many of my friends, both in Ukraine and Russia, believe that peaceful mass protests could be one factor that helps to end this war. 2/ 03 March
On Social Michael McFaul There are no more “innocent” “neutral” Russians anymore. Everyone has to make a choice— support or oppose this war. The only way to end this war is if 100,000s, not thousands, protest against this senseless war. Putin can’t arrest you all! 02 March
On Social Michael McFaul Two dictators in last hundred years have attacked Kyiv— Hitler and Putin. 01 March
On Social Michael McFaul Russians, how can watch passively as your leader slaughters innocent Ukrainians— children! Grandmothers! Protest now. If 1,000s protest, they can arrest you. If 100,000s protest, they cannot. 01 March
On Social Michael McFaul Well done @POTUS and team: "Treasury Prohibits Transactions with Central Bank of Russia and Imposes Sanctions on Key Sources of Russia’s Wealth" https://t.co/g5Q9t2XLT5 28 February
On Social Michael McFaul Please don't give Putin propagandists a platform on your media platforms. There is a time and place for hearing two sides of an issue. This tragic moment in European history is not one of them. Do not give false equivalency to voices of evil and voices of good. 24 February

Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco Archbishop denied her communion because she vocally supports a woman’s right to choose So she flew to Rome and received Communion at the Vatican and a blessing from Pope Francis instead That’s some queen shit right there
The NATO Alliance is proud to invite Finland and Sweden to become members. Their decision to join this Alliance is going to make us stronger and more secure – it will bolster the steps we’re taking during this summit to enhance our collective strength.
