And if we hadn’t started this war, the strait would never have closed in the first place … and we wouldn’t be at war now.

That’s what I came here to comment on. I didn’t know the #, but I know they weren’t all men. He should know that too since he met all the families at Dover.

P.S. Why are Starmer and Mandelson trending on 🦋 right now? Is something new about to break?

Cabbage would be longer, but perhaps too long? 🤷‍♀️

I was pretty sure it was, and yet everyone commenting seemed to buy into it and take it at face value. Eye opening to see that happen so easily.

Look at the long shadows across the road, and also the lack of their own shadows where you’d expect them to be.

He wasn’t kidding when he said that his house was gone! Glad he survived the attempt on his life.

I think I remember seeing this photo back in that timeframe. What Ukraine discovered after they drove the Russians out of Bucha was shocking. The depravity within Russian culture is astounding.

The Munk School — that’s Timothy Snyder’s new home. Glad you had such an engaged audience. Canadians understand what we’re up against in today’s world.

I guess they’ll have to get back to me front on horseback or something! Too bad.

That’s exactly what I thought about when I saw that video of the Russian woman sobbing at her phone camera about how Ukrainian drones are messing up her beautiful seaside town of Tuapse. She felt so sorry for herself and just couldn’t understand why it was happening!

A society of narcissists!

Great conversation with @sifill.bsky.social ! Thanks. 🙏

Who are those people sitting on the American side? They don’t appear to be the delegation that Trump claims to have sent.

‼️ As the people of Georgia 🇬🇪 gear up for another day of their continuous protests against the illegitimate regime, here is a scene from Day 509 of the nationwide protests from @marikamikiashvili.bsky.social and 📸 by Levan Zazadze. 👇

🇬🇪🇪🇺‼️

Watched your discussion w/ @tparsi.bsky.social again. The audio was excellent throughout — as was the conversation.

Also watched the session w/ @profpape.bsky.social late last night. Also a great discussion of where this war might be heading (was too tired to post a comment at the time).

Thanks for posting the clip. Much better than trying to sit through the whole show. 🫳 🎤

🥰 🐈‍⬛ He’s a beauty!

Now I don’t feel as bad about feeling foolish. 🙃

You should be proud of your king!

Music to my ears! 🎻💦

There’s another clip from this episode where he talks about Ukraine having the strongest army in Europe and marveled at the recent UAV / robot capture of a Russian position, seizing land and POWs without any human presence. That would be a good clip to feature.

Odd to see Crimea escape the birds 🦅! Hmm.

Hollywood would kill for a backdrop like that! 🔥 🌝

I noticed that some tanks remained unscathed when I saw that daytime overhead shot. Ukraine may as well finish the job tonight.

The full moon looking down over it all approvingly. 👌

It did? Huh.

Good discussion with Gil Duran re: Palantir. Watched it live.

Tried to watch the follow-on discussion with @tparsi.bsky.social , but the audio was super choppy, so I will rewatch it later, hopefully.

Looking forward to learning about the specific targets and how successfully they were hit!

Meanwhile, Bulgaria votes in a pro-Russian government. 🤬

I started to watch but I gave up during Morgan’s conversation with the Italian politician (interesting but unrelated). Maybe if you could steer us to the section where your chat with Wilson really picks up.

😂 I just gave out my award for best post of the day, but I may have to reconsider. This is a winner!
