Die gute Frau Sass und ihr Göttergatte Oleg Voloshin (Handlanger Medwetschuks) sind ja auch gerade Bestandteil von Ermittlungen gegen Nathan Gill, Kumpel von Nigel Farage. Gill hat sich von Russland bestechen lassen, Voloshin und Sass hatten zu allen wohl mehr als zufällige Kontakte.

China really didn't appreciate Japan saying that it might intervene in case of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan.
Chinese airlines have begun offering free refunds to citizens who cancel flights to or from Japan, while state media has warned that it is not safe to travel to the country, claiming a risk of attacks on Chinese people in Japan.

It bears repeating how Russian shadow fleet tankers increasingly carry military officers in official Russian navy uniforms.

The officers escort, intimidate, obfuscate documents and are generally uncooperative according to the Danish pilots who have an unique insight into these ships.
Danish pilots keep reporting sightings of little green men aboard civilian vessels coming from Russia. Unfortunately the authorities don’t want to discuss these sightings. But a veteran pilot with decades of experience is willing to talk.

Hi all,

I published a new Missile Matters post in which I model and compare the cost efficiency of UCAVs in deep strike missions to assess whether these systems can help bridge Europe’s deep strike gap.

The real issue isn’t immigration, it’s the feedback loop: platforms amplify anxiety → voters feel it → politicians chase it → hollow policy follows. Until we break that cycle, we won’t get functional decisions or functional democracy.

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.

The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

One of the biggest challenges for the US (the entire West) will be restoring faith in a political elite of ours that is not entirely corrupted - and in the belief that it is reasonable and desirable to defend our political system to the point of even pledging our lives.

Right now, it's most important to make sure that Russia loses its war of choice in Ukraine in order to break its imperial ambitions. As long as Russian imperialism can reign freely, it will never be a democracy.

Don't you agree, @vkaramurza.bsky.social?
“I have absolutely no doubt the day will come when Russia will be a normal democratic European country... It is important to be preparing now for that window of opportunity to make sure we get it right.”
