We will continue to combine both blogs, Weekend Wrap Up and the Russia-Ukraine Conflict. Please feel free to share any headlines we may have missed providing they come from reliable and credible sources. We won’t accept any parroted, Russian propaganda from far-right ‘news’ sources unless you’re trying to point out that the far-right extremist in our country and elsewhere actually believe their own BS or Russian disinformation.
