Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow. Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand . adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-signal...

Be not afraid The UK’s GDP is 50% bigger than Russia’s and GDP per capita three times as great (as with most EU countries). The economic power of the EU alone (without the UK) is EIGHT times larger than Russia. The EU is a superpower. Russia is not. And should not be treated like one

I'm on the left on most issues, but the way that Nayib Bukele has dealt with organized crime is absolutely exemplary and should be adopted all over the world. I simply cannot fathom people crying over the human rights of criminal gang members who have committed the most horrific crimes.

Ukraine is bombing Russian oil facilities to damage their ability to wage war. Russia is bombing Ukrainian hospitals to show the world that Russia is a depraved and degenerate nation that places no value on human life.

Can someone with a military background explain why this isn’t an act of war? The victim is a “US-flagged” vessel “at anchor in the North Sea and carrying huge amounts of jet fuel for the US military.” The deliberate attack’s aggressor is a Russian captain.

Ukraine's emergency service showed the moment of russia's double-tap attack while first responders were rescuing people in Kryvyi Rih. This is a major war crime. russia can't get away with it.

Our actual enemies and the BBC’s commercial rivals hate everything that makes it important & valuable. (And they don’t help themselves much these days in all sorts of ways.) But this is a crucial test of the current government’s resolve.

Gentle reminder that the quaint European pedestrian streets filling your Instagram feed were very recently just as fucked up and full of cars as most American ones. But they did something about it.

Not only is this crass, it is highly significant. Radosław Sikorski is perhaps the most Atlanticist major politician in Europe. And this is how he is now being publicly treated by US/Musk. They do not want us to be their friends, they do not want us to be their allies.

UK spent more money than most countries on Covid pandemic help; ended with more sickness, mental health problems, life expectancy drop. Looted in frauds, contracts for cronies. Poor, already struggling suffered most. Govts still fuelling inequalities, making the poor vulnerable.

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer. Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer. We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is. It will never reach you.

Zelensky's take-down of Brian Glenn over the suit question is underrated. "Maybe I'll get one after the war. Better than yours. Maybe cheaper." Low-key told the man he overpaid for a cheap suit. Don't argue with comedians. They'll destroy you.

JD Vance is erasing the hundreds of British troops who gave their lives in Iraq + Afghanistan from history. Six of my own regiment, the Royal Military Police, didn’t return home from Iraq. This is a sinister attempt to deny that reality. Vance has demeaned his office.

UK energy bills forecast to rise 5% from April. Add to this inflation-busting rises in water, phone, internet and more., people feel helpless. Can't grow economy with depleted household incomes. Must curb profiteering, impose windfall taxes. Ofgem protects companies, not people.
