It's Day 200 of the continuous anto-government protests in Georgia.

"Reality desperately needs a better PR department. That begins by recognizing that we’re under a well-funded, well-coordinated information assault."

"Republicans have long since cultivated a massive Spanish-language propaganda apparatus Democrats have no answer for. They’ve leveraged sophisticated new methods to target swing-state voters with highly targeted online ads and disinformation."

"40% of Americans under 40 now get their news from online influencers. More than half of those influencers are right-wing men, in part because there’s plenty of money to be made telling millions of people that greed, racism, and sexism are decidedly good things."

Ukraine's intelligence agency says it managed to sabotage power sources in Koenigsberg/Kaliningrad, the exclave surrounded by Poland and Lithuania.
