Big recommend for Alex Caudros' book, When We Sold God's Eye: Diamonds, Murder and A Clash of Worlds in the Amazon. The material alone is stunning, but Alex is a real writing talent, so it reads like a novel that happens to be entirely non-fiction.

Finally got around to listening to @markames.bsky.social overview on Ukraine. It is really excellent, and brings it down to a local level: Washington, Brussels, Kyiv. He also examines the current situation from the pov of Trump's personal axe to grind, and Biden admin's 90s nostalgia.
🚨🚨NEW Radio @TheWarNerd up — we talk to John Lechner @johnalechner.bsky.social about "Death Is Our Business", his new book on Wagner Group and the incredible rise & fall (like, really fall) of Yevgeny Prigozhin.

the same SKorean dictator claiming “North Koreans” infiltrated South Korean parliament & society, is also the one who first hard-pushed the story that 10k or 100k North Korean soldiers—still mysteriously invisible—were sent to Russia to fight Ukraine.
forgive and forget, but "did you support the iraq war" remains an almost perfect predictor of "are you an asshole over 20 years later"
