Jack Smith should just put it into a long article that any magazine or newspaper would be glad to publish. Whole issue of the Atlantic or such. Maybe he should be speaking ONLY to the American public and bypass those GOP criminals in Congress.

That is not at all what the term "The Fog of War" refers to. The term was coined in 1937 and referred to how imprecise information is on a battlefield due to inefficient communication and the chaos of how busy a real battlefield is. He was sitting in an air conditioned office watching high /1

Seizing the Initiative against Russia: Putting the United States in Control (1/6)
The US should adapt a ‘no sanctuary’ policy when it comes to Russia’ war machine. The Kremlin’s strategic assets — key to Russia’s war — enjoy sanctuaries in the shadow of the West’s reactive posture.

1/ A video showing alcoholics, newly recruited into the Russian army, has attracted scorn, concern, and even some compassion from Russian warbloggers. They suggest that the men will be deliberately killed for being useless when they arrive at the front. ⬇️

Russian contract soldiers of the “new generation” keep impressing their commanders with their top-tier fitness and skills. Fully “ready” for the next assault.

A new mural has appeared in Ternopil, dedicated to children killed in Russia’s attack.
The artwork, showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile, was created by artist Andriy Yermolenko. He described it as “a cry for help to the global community.”

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

There are many targets left for the Armed Forces of Ukraine to work on in the temporarily occupied territory of Crimea, in particular the deployment of Russian marines and airfields.

and by 2026 regional budgets risk falling into the red - meaning that ending the war without deep restructuring will almost certainly trigger a new, severe economic collapse.

2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press

I was honored to speak at a conference “Intent to Destroy: Confronting Russia’s Campaign to Erase Ukraine & Its People” at Georgetown. The mere suggestion of amnesty for Russia's war crimes and genocidal actions against Ukrainians, contained in Trump's 28-point plan, is an unconscionable obscenity.

Trump has overreached on immigration, tariffs, and Epstein.
He's now underwater on all those issues, with negative double-digit ratings on the economy and his handling of the Epstein scandal.
Americans are uniting against ICE & terrorism against their communities.
MAGA, still time to jump off.
