Iuliia Mendel from four years ago in this thread. "Russia is fully isolated information. Russian media tells only the Kremlin message and propaganda and lies and manipulates. It even doesn't have any logic in the messages." Nothing has changed.
I know that there are some smug Americans who'll call her a liar, a Nazi, etc., but we don't care about those opinions.
Now with transcript (so you can read it instead of just having to listen).
A sample -
MENDEL: Russia is fully isolated information. Russian media tells only the Kremlin message and propaganda and lies and manipulates. It even doesn't have any logic in the messages. Ukraine fully collaborates with international media and with American media, and we are very grateful for this because American media did an amazing job to help us spread the word and to stand for Ukraine to unite the world around this battle for democracy.
But if you ask me about Zelenskyy and Putin, they are really from different age, and they have different worldview. Putin is from old age. And what I mean when I say this, I don't mean age. I mean they have - they are outdated. He and his team, they have very outdated worldview.
KELLY: And you've met him, we should mention.
MENDEL: Yeah, we met. We met during the Normandy meeting in December 2019. And, you know, he surprised me for the reason that everybody considers that he's such a strong man because he developed this narrative. But in fact, when I saw him negotiating the peace, he was not strong at all. He was really a very weak negotiator for the reason that for the last 23 years, he has never negotiated anything. He just orders something and waits that people deliver the result.

Q: How do you get ten Canadian guys to stay in a swimming pool forever?
A: Say "hey guys, Donald Trump wants you out of the pool".

Another one related to handicapped spaces. They are not cart corrals. That extra space is to let people with mobility restrictions maneuver better.

While the US military is serious about leaving no warriors behind,
perhaps they should consider leaving no trash & pollution behind?
