If the US has cutting-edge aircraft and munitions, why has it struggled to win wars in recent decades? Why are so many of these conflicts—Iraq, Afghanistan, or even the recent campaign against the Houthis—a study in frustration and failure? The answer is that airpower has limits. on.cfr.org/3Tz3Gd9

Russia is taking advantage of all the attention being on Iran and is attacking Ukraine again. We need to keep our eyes on Ukraine! 🇺🇦

Apparently, we can no longer walk & chew gum at the same time. Of course the Israel-Iran crisis requires focus—but Russia is still launching its largest ever air attacks on civilians & the US just diverted 20k air defense interceptors it had promised Kyiv. Don’t abandon Ukraine.

Jeffries: "We will not be lectured by Donald Trump and anyone in the Republican Party about issues of law and order ... he pardoned hundreds of violent felons, criminals, who brutally assaulted police officers and attacked the Capitol on January 6. That's what Donald Trump did on day one."

A reminder because the media is majorly bungling it: Ru started the war and Ru keeps it up and refuses peace. Every Ru attack is unprovoked and every Ukrainian response is defense. Only Ukraine's actions could be construed as retaliation. Ru's attacks should never be called retaliation.

The end of US leadership in science, technology, and innovation. All in one little table. A tremendous gift to China, courtesy of the GOP. nsf-gov-resources.nsf.gov/files/00-NSF...

The fact that Merz is visiting Finland so soon after taking office, to meet also the other Nordic prime ministers, is a sign that he understands the importance of engaging with Northern Europe in a different way that Scholz did. Would be very happy to see Germany making an effort to win back trust

Europe is fragile. Europeans are not ready for a major war. Most Europeans do not realize that the battle for Europe is already underway. Most Europeans do not understand the danger looming over them. Russia wants #Europe. Russia is ready for a major war and ready to kill.

Bluesky has pivoted to TikTok mode. Videos now start playing with audio on when scrolling past. I’ll let it rest until they get a grip.

@support.bsky.team @pfrazee.com PLEASE fix Bluesky vertical video! ⁉️ Starts playing when it’s halfway up the scroll 🛑 Stops JUST after the mute button becomes visible after the new post button. 💢 Almost impossible to hit mute because the video stops if you scroll up a tiny bit more. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Frustrating!

Sætter nogle ord på betydningen af akademisk frihed - og en klar opbakning til forskerne til at sige fra overfor politisk pres - også overfor USA. #dkpol politiken.dk/danmark/poli...

Looks like Putin is seriously rattled by the collective ultimatum he received today from the West. Calling press conferences in the middle of the night does not exude confidence
