Public record: documentation of an email sent to Russian authorities, addressed to Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov, July 2026. To Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov, This week you told journalists that Russia remains open to a peaceful track and that you regret hearing "confrontational" statements rather than constructive engagement. Allow me to offer the most constructive statement available: which war crime should the world ask Russia to cease first? The answer is obvious, and it is the easiest test of whether Russia's stated openness to peace means anything at all. Return the Ukrainian children. Russia is not merely holding children taken earlier in this war — it is still actively removing children from occupied Ukrainian territory. These children are placed in so-called re-education camps, subjected to military training and indoctrination, stripped of their language, their identity, and their culture, and in many cases funneled toward adoption by Ru...

Открытое письмо Владимиру Путину Open Letter to Vladimir Putin Господин Путин, Я пишу Вам не как враг России, а как человек, который понимает, чем Россия является и чем она была. Ваша страна подарила миру Толстого и Достоевского, дала Менделеева и Лобачевского, отправила первого человека на орбиту вокруг Земли. Это страна, которая в минувшем веке пролила больше крови, чем любая другая, чтобы сломить хребет фашизму, потеряв десятки миллионов своих сыновей и дочерей. Страна, способная на такую культуру, такую науку и такую жертву, — это страна огромного потенциала. Именно поэтому я и обращаюсь к Вам. Вам семьдесят три года. Я говорю это не в оскорбление, а как факт, с которым каждый честный человек вынужден считаться по мере того, как стареет: впереди лет меньше, чем позади. На определённом этапе руководитель перестаёт управлять лишь ради настоящего и начинает — желает он того или нет — управлять ради того, каким его будут помнить. Решения, которые Вы принимаете сей...

Open Letter to the Jackson County, Oregon Board of Commissioners Jackson County Board of Commissioners, My name is Killian Yates, and I am writing as a resident of Jackson County to express my concerns regarding the continuing fentanyl crisis affecting our community and to encourage greater regional coordination among local, state, and federal officials. Over the past several years, I have engaged in advocacy efforts, spoken with affected families, individuals in recovery, community members, and others with firsthand knowledge of the issue. Through these efforts, I have become increasingly concerned that the fentanyl crisis impacting Southern Oregon is part of a larger interstate problem that extends beyond the jurisdiction of any single city, county, or state. In recent weeks, I have communicated these concerns to numerous elected officials and agencies, including: Senator Jeff Merkley Oregon State Senator Noah Robinson Governor Tina Kotek Governor Gavin Newsom Th...

Public Documentation: Interstate Fentanyl Trafficking Concerns Affecting Jackson County, Oregon By Killian Yates Jackson County, Oregon I am publishing this post to publicly document a series of emails, faxes, and letters I have sent or prepared regarding the fentanyl crisis affecting Jackson County, Southern Oregon, Northern California, and communities throughout the western United States.

It is a cross-jurisdictional public safety crisis involving local governments, state governments, federal agencies, law enforcement, public health systems, and, where appropriate, international cooperation. Over the course of my own advocacy, outreach, and independent conversations, I have spoken with individuals in recovery, people involved in the drug scene, affected families, community members, and others with firsthand knowledge of the crisis. I have also personall...
