Daughter of Trump's envoy Kellogg after Russian attack on Kyiv: "Strange feeling the Russians don't want peace"
Megan Mobbs, daughter of US president's special envoy for Ukraine Keith Kellogg, has commented on Russia's latest large-scale strike on Ukrainian cities, saying she has a "strange feeling the Russians don't want peace". Source: Mobbs on X (Twitter), as reported by European Pravda Details: On the night of 5-6 June, Mobbs wrote that several Ukrainian cities were under attack. "Russia wants you to believe it's striking back, but Ukraine's precision strikes occurred in response to relentless Russian attacks on civilians and only after Putin refused a ceasefire. He only wants more war, and all of Ukraine," she wrote. She later addressed her father directly: "loud night in Kyiv, dad!" "It might be the explosions and gunfire in the dead of night, but I get the strange feeling the Russians don't want peace," she added. While Mobbs's remarks were framed as a personal reaction to the airstrike on Kyiv, it remains unclear where exactly she was at the time. However, on 1 June, she had stated that she was in the city of Odesa. Background: On the night of 5-6 June, Russia launched another combined attack on Ukraine's capital. Civilian infrastructure, residential buildings, cars and metro tracks were damaged by falling debris and impacts. Four people were killed and 20 injured. Mobbs's post followed a statement from her father on 5 June, in which he suggested that Ukraine's recent strike on Russian aircraft could serve as a catalyst for peace. US President Donald Trump had also spoken with Russian leader Vladimir Putin about Ukraine's attack. During their conversation, Putin reportedly said he would "have to respond" to the recent attack on airfields. Support Ukrainska Pravda on Patreon!

Elon Musk Unfollows Stephen Miller on X as He Takes His Wife
After days of unsubtle back-and-forth on X, Musk has now unfollowed Stephen Miller. The change in status occurred some time before 1 p.m. on Thursday, when X account Big Tech Alert publicized its discovery. The news comes one week after Musk reportedly poached Miller's wife, Katie Miller, who left DOGE to work for him full time. However, as of 3:55 p.m. on Thursday, Miller still follows Musk, meaning the sudden unfollowing is one-sided—at least for now. The unfollowing may be one-sided, but it's hardly unexpected. Miller has spent most of his time doing everything he could to thwart the former DOGE administrator, staunchly defending Trump's Big Beautiful Bill after Musk called it an 'abomination.' Without naming Musk explicitly, Miller took to X on Wednesday to correct his criticisms of the 'Big Beautiful Bill' after Musk told reporters he felt the bill undermined DOGE's work. Miller also called the bill 'the most essential piece of legislation... in generations.' Of course, there's also a personal undercurrent to their professional tension thanks to Katie Miller's career change. According to CNN, Katie is working in a communications capacity, helping Musk to arrange 'interviews unrelated to his time in government.' She's also on X, where she recently changed her header image to a photo of a SpaceX rocket, and responded with a heart emoji to a post asking, 'Who here loves Stephen Miller?' However, Musk's reasoning behind unfollowing Miller may not be personal. He also recently unfollowed conservative pundit Charlie Kirk, per Big Tech Alert. Rather than an escalation of his feud with Miller, Musk's recent following choices may be part of the Tesla CEO's sudden push to burn his bridges with the White House since departing DOGE on May 30. In the past two days, Musk has unleashed near-constant tweets condemning the Big Beautiful Bill and later, the president himself. Just minutes before followers noticed he'd unfollowed Miller, Musk began firing off an ongoing series of posts in response to Trump's comment that he was 'very disappointed' in him for opposing the Big Beautiful Bill. In one post, Musk wrote, 'Without me, Trump never would have won the election.' In a second, he added, 'Such ingratitude.' Musk has only gotten more extreme with his post-breakup comments in the hours since unfollowing Miller. Most recently, he took to X to accuse the president of being 'in the Epstein files,' concluding his rant with, 'Have a nice day, DJT!'
