As the fight for Lt. General Michael Flynn’s case comes closer to vindication, Twitter has decided to restrict his lawyer Sidney Powell’s account for “unusual activity.”

Powell later responded exclusively to Twitter’s action on “The Sara Carter Show” Monday.

“I woke up to that this morning,” Powell said. “I think I’ve gotten that resolved now. I actually went on a Twitter rampage yesterday to stand up for America, to stand up for honesty, for respect, for decency, to protect our statues and our culture, to protect our freedoms, individual property rights, everything that America was built on. And that’s what comes of it?

She continued, “We also destroyed the New York Times article that came out yesterday. That was a bunch of abject lies about our case and how we conducted it. Molly McCann, my associate, did a brilliant rebuttal of that on Twitter, and of course, I retweeted that so I don’t know. I also tweeted that black lives matter is a Marxist organization, which you can see by the video of their founder.”

“It’s not something I made up and anything, any group that seeks to rule by mob and destroy anything in this country, any property and he statue anything,” Powell explained. “I mean, I was raised that you don’t touch property that isn’t yours. Whether it’s a laptop left on a seat in an airport or whatever, you pick it up and you turn it in the lost and found. But you do not do anything the harm, anyone else’s property or public property. And those who do should be severely punished immediately. We’ve got to restore American respect for other people’s property and persons.”

Twitter reinstated Powell’s account several hours after this report was first published. Twitter hasn’t responded to SaraACarter.com’s request for comment. The story will be updated if there is a response.

Trump: Tanks to Ukraine could escalate to use of ‘NUKES’

Former President Donald Trump stated bluntly on Truth Social, “FIRST COME THE TANKS, THEN COME THE NUKES. Get this crazy war ended, NOW. So easy to do!”

Trump was referring to the escalation of war in Ukraine. He, like many other commentators and lawmakers, are warning that the decision to continue sending weapons – and now tanks – could potentially lead to the use of “nuclear weapons.”

It’s mission creep and it’s dangerous, they say.

Why? Because Russian President Valdimir Putin has indicated in two different speeches that he would use nuclear weapons to defend Russia, if needed. Those warnings are not just bluster but a very real possibility.

And the escalation of war is visible.

Russia launched 55 missiles strikes across Ukraine Thursday, leaving 11 dead. The strikes come one day after the United States and Germany agreed to send tanks to Ukraine in an effort to aide the country. 47 of the 55 missiles were shot down according to Ukraine’s Air Force command.

Eleven lives were lost and another 11 were injured additionally leaving 35 buildings damaged in the wake of the attacks. According to The New York Times, Denys Shmyhal, said in a post on Telegram. “The main goal is energy facilities, providing Ukrainians with light and heat,” he said.

Ukraine is now demanding that they need F-16 fighter jets. In a post on twitter Ukrainian lawmaker, Oleksiy Goncharenko said, “Missiles again over Ukraine. We need F16.”

Morning. Missiles again over Ukraine. We need F16.

The US has abstained from sending advanced jets in the chances that a volatile decision could foster more dangerous attacks like former President Trump’s post on Truth referred to. If the US did authorize the decision to lend Ukraine the F-16 jets Netherlands’ foreign minister, Wopke Hoekstra, would be willing to supply them. According to The New York Times, Hoekstra told Dutch lawmakers, “We are open-minded… There are no taboos.”

F-16 fighter jets are complex to work on, they are not the average aircraft that can be learned in a matter of weeks. It can take months for pilots to learn how to fly these birds. European and US officials have the concern that Ukrainian forces could potentially use the jets to fly into Russian airspace and launch attacks on Russian soil.

Western allies are trying to avoid such a provocation, because that could lead to nuclear warfare in reference to what Putin has said he would do to defend his country.
