"[Putin] doesn't think that Ukraine is a real country, he thinks Ukrainians are just badly behaved Russians.”
The Economist's David Rennie says US talks with Putin over Ukraine are a non-starter, as "there is no guarantee that he won't just attack Ukraine again".

This new report from the Grantham Institute is crucial. And it's quite striking to see it published... it seems to indicate people are willing to consider policy ideas long treated as taboo.

The problem with forcing based estimates, is that this doesn't take into account the recent aerosol forcing increase.
The IPCC methodology assumes natural aerosols from e.g. forest fires are anthropogenic (but their CO₂ isn't..).

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

If the US can do whatever it wants to whomever it wants with no regard for human rights, the Geneva Convention, US law, the UCMJ, or international law, then we are no different than Vladimir Putin and Russia, who I suppose was the role model for Trump foreign policy doctrine.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

It's been quite something to see one of the world's leading climate scientists, James Hansen, being vilified the past years for presenting data showing the rapid acceleration of global and regional warming, associated with continued greenhouse gas emissions and rapid reduction of air pollution.

Lets explain how escalating/manufacturing a military confrontation with Venezuela gives the administration a legal “hook” to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, one of the oldest national-security laws still on the books. This statute allows a president to detain, restrict, or deport non-citizens
