Pressure works. Even on fascists. Especially on fascists.
Keep it up.

@inthehands "mulls" and "weighs" doing an awful lot of work there. Does anyone really think Russia will agree to just leave? Let alone stop shooting for 30 days?
No, nobody seriously believes Russia wants peace here – but the US resuming arms shipments and letting Russia be put in the spot is a complete 180 on the part of the Trump administration, who just a few days ago we’re trying to hand the entire war to Russia on a platter until they saw what kind of reaction that got.
@inthehands Fair enough. My money's still on Trump blaming Ukraine for the failure when Russia refuses to leave.
I might just be a cynic, though.
@inthehands @xinit @timkmak at some point I was relieved Trump hadn’t announced military aid for Russia. Maybe that’s less likely now?
