Alexander Vindman, a retired Army lieutenant colonel who was a top witness in President Trump’s first impeachment trial, announced on Tuesday that he was running for Senate in Trump’s adopted home state of Florida.
Alexander Vindman, of Trump Impeachment Fame, Runs for Senate in Florida
Mr. Vindman will run for the Democratic nomination to take on Senator Ashley Moody, a Republican. The race is an uphill fight for Democrats, but Mr. Vindman could be a strong fund-raiser.

This is not confirmed, but would not be the first time France has put national interests above Ukraine.

The Telegraph says Paris blocked EU cash being used to purchase Storm Shadow missiles from the UK, even though they are available now and France cannot supply.

Everything they learned in Minnesota they’re applying in Maine from day one. They started off doing fast-moving snatch and grabs on the street, recording and using facial id on observers, and threatening observers directly. They’ll do it all where you live too.
Why is the msm outside of Maine not covering this? It seems like a huge and very troubling story to me. ICE coming to observers houses or calling them on the phone warning them to back off??!! www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...

Ukraine plans to produce 7M+ drones in 2026, the Defense Ministry says. Drones helped create a strike zone up to 20 km deep; the next goal is 100 km by hitting Russian targets in operational depth. This is about distance — pushing danger away from people and cities.
