Well, f**k. Seems like context to me. The scope of evil is staggering. Witkoff=Summers in the sheer breadth and depth of corruption. Prove me wrong.

Real estate villain does villain-y things. I wish I was surprised.
Trump envoy Steve Witkoff has been outed as a Russian asset. This is traitorous stuff.
Steve Witkoff helped Russia derail Ukraine’s access to Tomahawk missiles. He tipped off the Kremlin about Zelensky’s U.S. visit, giving Moscow time to arrange a call that convinced Trump to block the deal. Witkoff actively works against Ukraine’s defense, in coordination with Putin’s regime.

To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines. The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.

Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”

That’s good news!
Oil company BP has found the source of a leak in a major Pacific Northwest pipeline system, allowing it to restart the flow of jet fuel to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on Tuesday and help avoid any major disruptions to Thanksgiving travel.

Honest question:

Climate migration is going to be a thing. Not now, not this way, but are public lands going to be a path to climate resiliency? No hiding from the fact that we are past the point of prevention.
The federal government owns about 640 million acres of land, largely in the West and Alaska. When members of Congress proposed selling some public lands — the first serious effort of its kind in more than four decades — Montanans fought back. cbsn.ws/4py97qZ

The Kyiv Independent is reporting that Trump envoy Steve Witkoff is "running a shadow operation inside the White House in an effort to sideline pro-Ukraine officials", cutting out Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in an effort supported by Vice President J.D. Vance.

Republican Senator Mike Rounds said Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a call to senators, confirmed the so-called 28-point “peace plan” was actually a Russian wishlist and is “not the administration’s position”. Nor is there any threat to cut off weapons or intelligence to Ukraine.

Good.
European leaders’ joint statement cleverly kicks Trump’s pro-Putin Ukraine plan way down the road. It needs “additional work”.
November 22, 2025 at 1:57 PM
@unauthorizedbeast.bsky.social this is worth sharing. 💔
Russia is not winning its war in Ukraine

But Steve Witkoff has agreed to treat them as a victor

It’s a long Russian con to make America complicit — and it makes America weak, and corrupt
The “peace plan” for Ukraine is just a framework for Russia & the US to take assets away from Ukrainian recovery, and to ensure Russia evades accountability for war crimes

Europe can, and must, craft better with Ukraine
