Lots of US air activity near Venezuela today, bombers, fighters and a rivet joint surveillance aircraft. Looks more like a strike package dry run tonight. Ratcheting up pressure and getting ready for green light after 24th.

This morning, Trump has already called for the imprisonment and execution of Democratic members of Congress called on the military to follow the constitution.
In a democracy, the legislature would remove him from office immediately.

That chart is well worth studying. Share of daily transactions taking place in cash around the world. As an Australian, I’m very much used to cashless everything by now. I’m still totally against going fully cashless.

I've written a couple of things over the last days about how the government and much of Westminster remaining on X as the platform becomes increasingly toxic is having consequences for our politics...
Our politics is increasingly normalised to racism – because politicians are addicted to X
The platform has quietly dragged British politics into a dark place

My friend Andrew Lih @fuzheado.bsky.social is a freakin hero. A gunman came into his Wikipedia event, and he grabbed and disarmed him. Thanks to him and another brave volunteer, no one was hurt—not even the gunman.
Now let’s ask why we accept a society where this can happen at any large gathering.

BREAKING: Journalists exited the Pentagon after refusing to agree to the Trump administration's new restrictions on access.
Journalists turn in access badges, exit Pentagon rather than agree to new reporting rules
Journalists at the Pentagon turned in access badges and cleaned out their workspaces on Wednesday, the price for refusing to agree to new restrictions on their jobs being removal from being at the seat of U.S. military power.

2/ Here's Nathan Gill's speech
Could it have just been a coincidence that Gill and Farage parroted the same Russian talking points? I don't think so. It looks coordinated. Either Farage was feeding Nathan Gill with Russian talking points, or Russia was providing its talking points to both of them.

This is not "de-escalation"—this is state violence. The actions being taken are far from calming the situation; instead, they exacerbate tensions and demonstrate a disturbing disregard for human rights.
