Watch: Samantha Power Lets Slip The US Is At War With Russia, But "Ukrainians Doing The Fighting"
In a CNN panel last week, the head of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Samantha Power issued some very revealing words on the Russia-Ukraine war, wherein she admitted that the US is at war with Russia but that it's "Ukrainians doing the fighting".
Her words came during a CNN 'town hall' event, which also featured Biden national security adviser Jake Sullivan, marking the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion. She had specifically responded to a question from an audience member, who asked: "What vital interest does to the US have in Ukraine?" At one point in forming a response she actually gave what ranks among the most ridiculously simplistic clichés sometimes uttered by D.C. policymakers - that America stands up to "bullies".
"I think Americans understand bullies and the importance of standing up to bullies," she said. But here's where she said the quiet part out loud, letting it slip that in some sense the US sees Ukraine as a pawn in the greater geostrategic game of ultimately defeating Russia: She explained the need for a broad coalition of countries in order to show "This isn't just the United States and Russia, this in fact is Ukrainians on the front lines, Ukrainians doing the fighting…" The set of assumptions behind this statement by a top Biden admin official is very revealing, however casually she may have slipped it in.

Prof Demands 'Black Bereavement' Leave After Killing Of Any Black Person
For the latest evidence that woke academia is dragging Western society into madness, we present Southern Illinois University Edwardsville professor Angel Jones, who argues that black university professors and staff should be allowed bereavement leave whenever any black person is victimized…anywhere.
Writing at Times Higher Education, Jones accuses American colleges and universities of disregarding Black faculty and staff's mental and emotional well-being in the aftermath of "societal events" involving a black person. Contrasting against the "bare minimum" response that's offered to black students, Jones asks:
"Where is the acknowledgment of our pain? Where are our counselling services? Where is our grace for missed meetings and deadlines while we mourn?"
Underscoring the broad range of qualifying events, Jones spotlights the example of Tyre Nichols, the black man savagely beaten to death in January by…five other black men with Memphis police badges.
Jones, whose work is "grounded in Critical Race Theory and Critical Race Feminism," ridicules the notion that, as a black woman, she would be "expected to return to 'business as usual' on Monday after seeing a member of my community murdered on Friday." The SIU-E campus is more than 300 miles from Memphis, and Jones gives no indication of any personal relationship with Nichols.
