It's almost like POTUS is more concerned with quick wins than long-term disasters

Maria Popova 🇨🇦 @PopovaProf

Ru doesn’t want Ukraine in NATO so it can keep invading it. Keeping Ukraine out of NATO is the opposite of solving the problem, it prolongs it by inviting another Russian invasion.

Former NATO supreme commander thinks of all the ways Trump may harm Ukraine to appease Putin, shutting off the flow of intel is the dangerous https://t.co/ZRDlgsiMD2

Lt. Calley would be proud: We have to destroy the planet to save the planet

The idea of locking Ukraine out of peace talks is unlikely to be a popular one in the U.S. Russia/Putin are VERY unpopular (favorable rating under 10%). To put in perspective, about as many think we faked the moon landing or that the Earth is flat as like Russia or Putin. https://t.co/8sRsRF5gST

Today’s newsletter is about the Corn Laws. Also tariffs, inflation, Mt McKinley and Abe Simpson. But mostly the Corn Laws https://t.co/0MVrrhLF0g

I feel like this piece took almost as long to write as it did Iraq to become a "real place." So please read it. All of it. There is a surprise treat at the end. Maybe. https://t.co/Q262s7YcnR via @opinion

Man, he's 90 and still the best politician in America. (Silver to Jerry.) Still, it's legit to wonder why she apparently never mentions him in her autobiography, and her ungrateful line: "His career is over; I will be alive and kicking for the next 40 years.”

Must read: Willie Brown responding to queries.

I have no clue on the criminal charges, but Grameen was always a fraud and good reporting showed it at the time. As usual, the Nobel committee was oblivious. In their defense, at least he's not a war criminal like, say, Abiy Ahmed

Muhammad Yunus is a Nobel laureate, the father of microfinance and a friend to the world’s most powerful. Now, he faces a potential life sentence in a Bangladesh prison. Here's how the world’s “banker to the poor” came under scrutiny https://t.co/F1kL30Dnn9 https://t.co/8X4DF6DkcY

But he has a valid point that Mayor Pete has never given birth

Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski

JD Vance says women who haven’t given birth like Kamala Harris are “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives,” and have “no direct stake” in America. https://t.co/3DJY3pQTGe

RT @stavridisj: The British intelligence has consistently been spot on in their assessments. These numbers are simply shocking and overtime…

This, along with "we must turn to China" are both just code for abandoning Ukraine totally

Ostap Yarysh @OstapYarysh

"This is completely irresponsible. Ukraine should not join NATO, and to invite them during a war is to invite our nation into war. Do you want American ground troops in Ukraine? If not, we must push back against the idea that UKR should join NATO." (2024) https://t.co/YcwlpJZtTE

Today's newsletter was originally about a bunch of guys not named Trump. It is still about a bunch of guys not named Trump https://t.co/4LH00chzkV

The US military has since the "second offset" of the 1970s favored quality over quantity, and that should quell some of the panic over ship numbers, hypersonics, nukes, etc. then again, as @stavridisj likes to say, "quantity has a quality all its own"

Eric Sayers @DEricSayers

This has become beyond unacceptable, but because it’s a slow moving crisis that won’t prove disastrous unless there is a (low probability) conflict, we continue to just largely talk… We need a massive shipbuilding industrial base investment backed with a clear shipbuilding
