While motorcades glide toward Mar-a-Lago, a different kind of diplomacy will unfold a few miles away, at the foot of the Southern Boulevard Bridge connecting West Palm Beach to Palm Beach.

At around noon, the Ukrainian Association of Florida, in partnership with Ukrainian community leaders from across the state, plans to hold a peaceful rally expected to draw between 50 and 200 people.

If access to the bridge is restricted, demonstrators will gather at its western foot, along the Intracoastal Waterway.

Their message is pointed and deliberately legalistic: peace, not surrender.

    I don’t think that Florida is that passionate about hating Ukraine, it is a hard sell to US conservatives even when their cult leader demands it.

      Apparently it was a shitshow? I basically refuse to watch the news until the brain worms command me to… or 3 days after new years… whichever comes first.
