Ask apologists fur Russia what they think Putin or his successor’s next move would be if they complete the invasion of Ukraine and capture all of the military personnel and military ingenuity that the Ukrainians have built up these last three years? Ask them: what do you suppose his next move is?

I’m really not sure these folks Hate America. I’m thinking they love their country while hating one infinitely hate-able individual. #NoKings London.

The police are waiting for the military before they go in here at #NoKings London.

There are no police here at #NoKings London. The terrorist rioters are running amok. Pedestrians are fleeing for their lives!

The level of intimidation from the ring leaders at #NoKings London is truly terrifying.

The #NoKings rally in London. “Every accusation is a confession”

Some of the world’s most wanted wielding their reign of terror here at #NoKings in London. Blissfully free of ICE goons initiating or trying to provoke violence. Have a great day over in America, folks over there! Be loud, proud , fearless and daft! It’s the daft that REALLY gets under their skin!

Referring to the rapid restoration of services after the devastating December 2022 cyber attack on Kyivstar, CTO Volodymyr Lutchenko told ETSI Security Conference today: “It’s incredible what people can do in times of crisis. Russia’s war on Ukraine “is not stopping us from innovating," he added.

Tell you what @theguardian.com?There are rare occasions when a “crackdown” can be justified in the interests of protecting the safety of citizens. This REALLY isn’t one of them. To avoid misunderstanding “amid Trump’s” “power grab” or “Fascist provocation” would be far clearer for your readers.

I’m in San Antonio Texas where the Mayor, Gina Ortiz Jones, is ex-military; a Democrat; a woman, a Latina; and gay. It can be so hard believing in America nowadays. But some of its leaders - and many of its voters - still inspire you to hang in there, double down and believe in a better tomorrow.

Oh boy. This is SO the picture.

WTF was Starmer actually doing with “Island of Strangers”, then the GB News interview, then the “deep regret” for the phrase? Was it maybe thought through from start to finish? Toss the right a bone, then the left. Hope that satisfies both sides? And hope aggregate support holds up better that way?

This really is quite the headline isn’t it?

Excellent new report out by Recorded Future on threats to submarine cables. Most interesting (and challenging) recommendation is sharing of regional threat intel modelled on how NATO openly shared early threat intel of Russia's imminent plan to invade Ukraine.
