This quote from Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Goncharenko really resonates. He said the Ukrainian people know why they have to keep going because "When Ukrainians are fighting against Russia, thousands die.When Ukraine is occupied by Russia, millions die.”

This is what happens when the politics become the ends instead of the means. In both instances, he did it for the Fox News ratings, and the world is left to reap the consequences.

Regardless of Iran’s official response to the bombings, asymmetric responses (assassinations, cyber actions, proxy attacks) are all but guaranteed for Khamenei to retain credibility at home. Look for him to also further clamp down on his own people.

If he holds to it, Serbian support could be a BFD for Ukraine and a powerful signal from the center of gravity in the Western Balkans. Vucic is a sly fox if nothing else, but this is an opportunity worth testing.

Rebuffed by Putin, Xi, and most trade partners, this coward looks for somebody to make him feel strong. Classic bully trying to find a victim. How does anyone support this?

This is how patronage systems work in totalitarian transition. Claw back all resources and then (in showy performances of beneficence) bestow them selectively to supplicants now in your debt. What once were public services become private favors.

More of this PLEASE. We have to place this ongoing lunacy in the larger context of a sane world seeking to learn from history and not repeat avoidable mistakes.

Shoehorning the U.S. into a Russian victim narrative while driving obedience with fear. This is coward speak.

Once again reinforcing that it’s not just morally right to support Ukraine - it’s in the U.S. long term national security interest to stay close to this rapid, bloody innovation center.

Nations need to realize that it is in their security interest to side closely with Ukraine, which is the bleeding edge of war fighting innovation. Russia is just the bloody whetstone upon which Ukraine sharpens its knives.

“Is [Trump] so fragile they fear the consequences if they don’t slide on the knee pads and polish his balls until they shine like the rest of his cheeseball throne room?”

Trump fundamentally doesn’t understand the US competitive advantage vs China. They have time, stability, and a vast labor force on their side, and we had the moral high ground, freedom, and creativity on ours. We’ve hamstrung ours advantages and done nothing to blunt theirs. Good fucking luck.

As a devout agnostic, I’ve never felt more catholic than when reading new Pope’s counter-MAGA, pro-humanity social media posts. Well played Jesus, well played.

Even with all the filth Trump is revealing, it’s still not clear if he is the core of the problem or if the cancer still resides independently in the American population, so deeply interwoven that no surgery would leave the host alive.

The US LNG industry seems to be the last restraint keeping the Trump admin from lifting Russia energy sanctions and rewarding Putin for his ongoing slaughter in Ukraine. That’s it. Absolutely shameless.
