What a time to be alive. The president of the United States doing battle damage assessment via sketchy OSINT accounts. I had blocked this particular account some time ago.

#Sumy today sergeant of the 41st brigade Kirill Sazonov posted a post describing the actions and prospects of the RuAF offensive in the Sumy region. I translated it in full and I warn you that it is long, but it is really worth reading to understand the events there.

The only thing quieter than President Trump’s birthday military parade is Elon Musk’s phone on Father’s Day.

Art of the Deal!

“Hey folks we like you to overthrow your repressive regime” works way better if you did not bomb said folks just hours before. Food for thought. (My very liberal Iranian folks actually want a nuke now, thanks to Bibi)

HAPPENING NOW: A federal judge is set to hold a hearing on Governor Gavin Newsom’s request for a temporary restraining order that would bar the Trump administration’s use of the state national guard amid protests against immigration raids in LA. Hearing starting now before Judge Breyer 🧵⬇️

New piece for Zeit Online. The deregulation fever gripping Berlin is fine if dosed. But it’s not going to save Germanys promising clean tech sector. For that, industrial policy is indispensable. A good place to start? Align France and Germanys subsidy schemes - as a blueprint for the whole EU

Efficiency is when you make the troops homeless *before* they're veterans

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

“Patel, Bongino and the other leaders are caught in a trap of their own making. The world they helped create, a world in which conspiracy destroys facts, is now the world they have to inhabit.”

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

Russland schießt jede Nacht Raketen und Marschflugkörper in schlafende Städte - Häufige Frage: Muss die Ukraine nicht endlich Zugeständnisse machen? Ukraine zerstört russische Bomber - Häufige Frage: Gefährdet das nicht die Friedensverhandlungen? Wir kommen so nicht weiter.

Heute vor 6 Jahren wurde Walter #Lübcke ermordet: Sein Mörder nahm ab 2015 an #AfD Treffen in Erfurt, Eisenach & Stammtischen in Kassel teil. Vor den hess. Landtagswahlen 2018 hängte er AfD Plakate. Der Entschluss Lübcke zu töten fiel auf dem AfD „Trauermarsch“ 2018 in Chemnitz.

Some women want love. Some seek power and money. Some seek attention and fame. Me? I just want to know who the administrator of DOGE really is. My manifesto, my magnum opus—“The WITAOD Chronicles”—is out now. ⬇️ 👇 www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

The story of Trump giving putin two weeks to end the war has now been going on for two months. Trump, April 27: "Two weeks." Trump, May 19: "Two weeks." Trump yesterday: "Two weeks."

Der Karlspreis ist die größte Ehre meines Lebens. Er ehrt auch all jene, die sich mit mir für ein stärkeres, geeinteres und unabhängiges Europa einsetzen. Ich nehme diesen Preis heute auch in ihrem Namen entgegen. Ab morgen geht unsere Arbeit für dieses Europa weiter.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday let stand an appeals court decision that allowed a public school in Massachusetts to prohibit a seventh grader from wearing a T-shirt that said “There Are Only Two Genders,” declining to hear the case over heated dissents from two conservative justices.
