Truth & Lies.

Bluesky is brilliant for the Bylines Network. 🦋

So much better than X or Facebook. It doesn’t kill news links, the news mix is healthier here, and it’s an ideal environment for community-building.

Our citizen journalism is thriving here. Keep it up @bsky.app!

Those accusing the ICC of being “political” do not fully understand the law.

Post WWII, we in “the West” stipulated a set of shared rules that we believed applied to everyone - enemies, allies and ourselves.

If an ally breaches those rules, the rules have not suddenly become “political” overnight.
