U.S. Vice President JD Vance decided to join Bluesky, only to be abruptly suspended, according to news reports.Vance made a big deal about his decision to get an account on what has become known as a more liberal competitor to Elon Musk's X network.
The bio in the profile says "Christian, husband, dad" first, and then "Vice President". Just like every replyguy on Twitter with a "Christian, husband, dad" bio. They always put that info first, and in that order.

A short hike made slightly more difficult by the remaining snow in the trail on 5/15, mile long out and back descends from where the parking lot to the falls along a steep ridgeline. Views of bridal veil falls may be seen across the valley, and later in the year a path to them may be accessible.
Panther Falls drops down while the creeksides remain partially snowbound. This fall may create a good snowcone structure in winter based on some of the snow chunks I saw laying around.
The trail passes under a fallen log amid some boulders while bridal veil falls may be seen through a gap in the trees across the valley.
Same view of the falls as the main image, but this time with me being blinded by the blazing sun in the foregound.
With Israel fighting on at least two fronts, the country's finances and economy are strained. The government hopes higher taxes can cover some of the bills while its high-tech industry remains a safe investment.

The Muslim Brotherhood, one of the most powerful political entities in the Middle East, has rallied around Iran in the wake of Israel’s devastating strikes on the country and urged disparate Muslim groups to unite and “confront the Zionist entity”.
In a letter addressed to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday, the acting head of the movement, Salah Abdel Haq, said his group expressed “full support” for the Islamic Republic as Israel’s assault stretched into a second week.
Is there any chance that those two speakers can have a dialogue? Google meet could help them talk in real time with their own language now, it's much cheaper than weapons !
Oh my poor naive friend. Do you think the holocaust happened due to a lack of communication?
No the Zionists are a genocidal death cult and will have no dialogue. They simply want to eradicate all muslims. They have stated as much time and again.
The people of Palestine got along just fine for the most part for 600 years before these Nazi fucks showed up, Jews, Muslims, and Christians all coexisting together for centuries and then these fuckers came along in the 1920s and started some shit and then after WWII took the opportunity to accelerate their settler colonial project under the guise of a "safe haven" for the Jewish diaspora but really they held contempt for holocaust survivors too. Just look up the kind of shit the early Zionists and the current Zionists actually write. Look up what Einstein had to say about them when he turned down an offer to be their first president. global-politics.eu/albert-eins…
If you think they can just "talk things out" you have not been paying attention to any of the last hundred years of history in the region.
and what the fuck would this liberal ideal scenario of a Google Meet meeting even look like?
euroamerican settler-colonialist: I want to kill you, your family, take your land, **** you and your family, destroy any structure that so much has any connection to you and your people, steal your language to create our own frankenstein version of it (and not even be able to pronounce ح), steal your food, LARP as you and do all of the aforementioned to the rest of the Arab world and beyond.
palestinians: we just want to live and liberate ourselves.
like how the fuck are Palestinians seriously expected to "meet them halfway"?
They managed to merge Zionism with Semitism for the common people and make them feel like Nazis or antisemites for opposing Israel. Either cancel them with force or watch them get the middle east (with the help of our nazi west governments)
If the issue is still oil, let's go follow the electric wave coming from far east then. People either start finding solutions or it will be a hell land forever.
I guess I'll avoid any comment about this from now on, it makes not sense anymore.
its about hegemony more than just oil. the petrodollar is a means to an end in that respect, thats why oil is so important.
the us will still find a way to target dissent even without oil in the mix. if we let them win and stay hegemons past the inevitable oil crisis, that is.
It would be cool to see some anti colonialist solidarity in the region again. Although it being theoretically aligned and spearheaded by an organisation created in part to destroy anti colonialist unity is iffy.
Use violence against the out group. If the out group protests peaceful, falsely claim it’s violence to increase your own violence. If the out group fights back, use it as an excuse to bring all the violence you have to bear while painting your attack as an act of “defense”.
The real issue is that people are not watching mainstream media as much anymore, whole generations are now immune to the whole manufacturing consent paradigms on both the right and the left that come from the government and corporate media… hearing how cnn fox msmbc and even npr and bbc talk about how Israel’s genocide is Gaza…. I believe it’s waking us up in a way that has never happened simply because we have the internet and alternate sources of information….

According to the NGOs, the findings show “growing public pressure for legal accountability and a decisive government response”.
More than half of Britons oppose Israel’s war on Gaza, with the vast majority of those saying Israel’s conduct amounts to genocide, a new poll has showed.
What Gaza exposed to the world should have been recognised from the start by Western leaders. But as long as Israel was standing against a defenceless population, the West remained ensconced within its narrative, complicit in Israel’s killing thousands of Palestinians in Gaza. When starvation became a point of contention after the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) was banned by Israel, the EU prioritised its humanitarian discourse and found a fragment of consensus upon which it could criticise Israel.
Once Israel decided to attack Iran, the EU swiftly found another niche for Israel’s security narrative, taking cues from Israel, of course.
Since Israel’s security narrative still holds sway, Palestinians remain on the bottom most rung of EU foreign policy. Instead of viewing Israel’s belligerence – sustaining the genocide in Gaza and attacking Iran based upon decades of Zionist incendiary rhetoric – as a reason to apply punitive measures, the EU takes a step back from acting against Israel’s interests, which are also its own

This month, the Social Web Foundation is joining the UN’s 20th annual conference on the internet, the Internet Governance Forum. Held in Oslo, Norway, IGF 2025 brings together policymakers, technologists, activists, and academics to address the most pressing questions about digital governance. From AI regulation to connectivity in underserved regions, the agenda reflects how internet governance is now inseparable from broader social, economic, and political concerns.
Mallory Knodel, Executive Director of the Social Web Foundation and founder of this newsletter, will be moderating a workshop on “Privacy-Preserving Interoperability and the Fediverse”, a session that speaks directly to the Social Web Foundation’s mission: growing, healthy, sustainable and multi-polar Fediverse.
The session will examine a practical tension: interoperability allows people to move fluidly across platforms—whether it’s Mastodon, PeerTube, or other services in the Fediverse. Yet this fluidity exposes new privacy risks. For example, a user’s profile photo or contact list might unintentionally follow them from one service to another without explicit consent. To ensure the social web continues to grow in a responsible way, we need thoughtful policy, smart technical design, and cross-sector collaboration.
To tackle this, Mallory will be posing three concrete questions to a diverse panel featuring voices from academia, civil society, and the private sector:
User agency: How can we design cross-platform data flows so that individuals—not servers—decide what travels with them?
Legal alignment: What does real compliance with the GDPR look like for a decentralised network, and how might the Digital Markets Act nudge the large incumbents toward meaningful interoperability?
Technical safeguards: Which standards or privacy-enhancing tools could make federation safer by default?
By grounding the discussion in technical and legal constraints, this workshop aims to develop practical, actionable recommendations that platforms, developers, and policymakers can adopt. We’ll refine these into a summary document outlining key takeaways and next steps, which we’ll share in a future edition of this newsletter.
This conversation also comes at a critical time. The momentum behind decentralized platforms is growing, but regulatory clarity and technical safeguards lag behind. Without coordination, we risk repeating the mistakes of Web2: centralisation of power, opaque data practices, and exclusionary design.
Attending the IGF is free! Whether you’re joining us in Oslo or tuning in online, we encourage you to participate. Your questions, insights, and lived experiences help shape the conversation. We’ll be taking audience questions during the session, and they’ll feed directly into the discussion.
That is a terrible idea. We are ruled by a 2nd grade rich bully and all his sycophantic lackeys, literally comically villainous.

I recently figured out how nice Wine works for running old Windows games. However, many of them are fixed at 800x600 or another similarly low resolution. No big deal under X11 or Windows since the game will just stretch to fill the screen. But on KDE Wayland, the game just runs unscaled with black bars all around and none of the display settings seem to help. Is there an accepted way of setting the screen to a lower resolution but stretching it to fit the full display on Wayland sessions?
It's supposed to scale correctly, but otherwise Gamescope will take care of that particular issue.
Kinda annoying on Xorg when the game just decides my screen should be 800x600 and then proceeds to crash and leave me at 800x600 on a 4K display with scaling set to 200%.
Is the automatic scaling a recently-introduced feature to KDE? I have Plasma 5 on Debian 12, could that be the missing link, or is my configuration just wonky? Hoping to avoid editing every affected shortcut to include Gamescope.
Wine has always done that, last seen on Plasma 5 (I switched to Wayland with Plasma 6), and I remember that being a thing way back in 2007 too. Valved patched the scaling in Proton as well I believe so that might be why it didn't do that.
It behaves how fullscreen apps work on Windows, takes over your whole display and messes with the resolution and all.
idk about you (and how many 800x600 games you have), but I have to edit the run command for a quarter of my games anyway, since they don't interpret my setup correctly and look like shit or are simply unplayable. So I copy paste my default gamescope command and viola, chefs kiss, everything works.
I think fullscreen worked differently on xorg vs wayland. I am on plasma 6 on a rolling distro and I like wayland a lot, especially when mixing monitor sizes and resolutions.

Had to deal with this recently. The cause is openSUSE's move to SELinux on new installs, which by default blocks the required permissions for the RPM version of Steam. You can correct this with these commands: ausearch -c 'steam' --raw | audit2allow -a -M my-steam to create the permissions file and semodule -X 300 -i my-steam.pp to apply it. Hopefully this saves someone else from the wild goose chase I went on earlier.
I am unsure. I'll give this a try soon, as it looks like it probably does the trick. Thanks for letting me know.
EDIT: Seemingly not, at least on my setup. It was installed automatically as a dependency of Steam, but I needed to use my previous commands to get Proton to work.
Is there a privacy-focused accurate handwriting-to-text option for android? Ideally it would run locally on device with no required connection to the internet.
It only took a few hours of summitry in the Canadian woods on Monday for President Donald Trump to decide he’d rather be elsewhere.
Returning to Washington on an overnight flight, Trump attributed his decision to abruptly abandon the Group of 7 summit to operational security, suggesting there could be prying ears among the fir trees listening to his secret conversations.
“I don’t believe in telephones, because people like you listen to them,” he told reporters on Air Force One. “Being on the scene is much better, and we did everything I had to do at the G7.”

Yeah, that only works for people who are brainwashed to follow whatever the current regime is pushing regardless of how much it hurts them personally, but especially if it doesn't hurt them directly in the very short term.
Long story. But it was by searching on its server while on its house. The pedo tried to incriminate the father (being from Venezuela and etc police here will try to arrest you just for being from there) first before i reported the evidence to police, it went viral on TV here but the father has been accused and incriminated by fascists political groups that doesn't care if hes a pedo or not (wich he is not, the baby of him was abused by this other person) they only want to generate fake news and get some clicks on their social media.
This is just a summary im not gonna write it all is long as i said lol
At the 27th Shanghai International Film Festival, the China Film Foundation and partners launched two major AI-driven initiatives under the Kung Fu Film Heritage Project: a large-scale effort to restore 100 classic martial arts films using artificial intelligence, and the unveiling of a brand-new animated feature, “A Better Tomorrow: Cyber Border,” billed as the world’s first fully AI-produced animated feature film.
I have a Raspberry Pi 4B set up as a print server, so it has to run 24/7. But it irks me that it's mostly idling.
I'd move my website to it, but I don't want to deal with it being open to the internet. The same goes for an e-mail server.
I was also thinking of running a Minecraft server on it. (Being able to play on the same world from different devices is kinda cool.) Alas, my RPi only has 4 GiBs of RAM. I worry that such a load would interfere with the print server.
There is an official Jellyfin plugin that adds DLNA support; content can then be accessed via any DLNA client including VLC (built in support). MPV can also use DLNA with it's own plugin.
One major advantage is that on the domestic TV channels here in the UK which have ad breaks (essentially all of them except the BBC) it removes the ads altogether and the programmes run seamlessly from the part before the ad break into the part after. I still smile every time it happens!
That sounds cool as heck! But I am very confused about how television broadcasting works in the UK. This only works with some sort of over-the-internet TV, right?
Sometimes I’ve found a site that gets partially blocked and causes a fuss. There’s an option to allowlist domain(s).
Also, some sites try to use ad domains to serve legit traffic, and some use legit domains to serve ads, so it’s not perfect, but it works pretty darn well overall.
Ive been using the OISD list for myself and family members for the past couple of years without issues. It’s specifically made to to be unnoticeable, by whitelisting hosts that would cause issues.
One thing to note is that it’s not a full replacement for adblockers, as DNS blockers can only block full hosts and not all ads and tracking are served from dedicated hostnames. Things like YouTube ads will be unaffected by DNS based blocking. It does really make a difference, though, including for apps with banners.
Not just ad blocker, but tracking blockers too. Also, if you've got a simple little device like a WiFi controlled outlet switch, and through PiHole you notice it "phoning home" frequently even though you're not using it.... that's a clue that you might not want to be keeping such things inside the same network where you check on your 401(k) account...
Running those adblockers on your devices is extremely insecure. They register as a VPN and intercept HTTPS traffic. They decrypt the encrypted traffic, filter it, and encrypt again meaning all your communications are signed by this single app's certificate. Not to mention any vulnerability would wreak havoc.
Does PiHole ever break a family member’s browsing, and then they don’t know to fix the issue because it would involve understanding opening up the PiHole web interface?
Yes, that does sometimes happen but the frequency depends on the blocking list used, or if multiple lists are used. When a family member encounters something like this, I can usually quite quickly identify the relevant blocked item and whitelist it.
Well, it takes a while longer to fix. The only times it’s happened (perhaps twice in 6 months) it’s been when a family member has been trying to buy something from a website. I can also access the Pi-hole remotely and—in the worst case scenario—just turn off blocking altogether for a short period.
It does look like there’s a way to use PiHole personally for those who share the network with those who don’t want it: leave default DNS server setttings alone except for your own devices.
Another vote for a music server. Gonic/Navidrome is pretty low power and super useful!
Home assistant is another option, but I'll say that if you're serious about home automation you'll quickly outgrow a Pi. It'll run if you only have a handful of devices though.
I like the music server idea! Where do you get your music? Many artists don't even sell CDs nowadays.
Home assistant is probably not for me. The house I live in is still very analogue. I enjoy not having to debug software when investigating why there's no hot water.
Plenty of artists still do sell CDs though. I often buy them at the merch stand at shows. Many also sell DRM free digital files on sites like Bandcamp. I also buy a lot of music at the thrift stores and rip them. If all else fails, there's always the high seas.
Almost every time I look on Bandcamp, the artist I am looking for isn't there. 🙁 Also, last time I tried buying something there they only accepted PayPal which I stopped using a while ago. But it seems they accept normal card payments now. Neat.
I buy CDs – I even bought a CD drive to rip them – but international shipping really kills me. I guess brick-and-mortar music shops are still a thing...
Weird. It must be that my taste is very indie/alternative. You can always also check if the artist has their own shop.
That’s how Jonathan Coulton does it. They Might Be Giants does it as well (in addition to a Bandcamp), but most of their stuff from 1990-1996 is stuck on their former label, so they can’t sell DRM-free audio, only vinyl and/or cassette.
There's also qobuz for your more mainstream music needs. And you can always use a YouTube downloaded like yt-dlp together with a music tagging tool like MusicBrainz Picard.
Plus de 100 millions de titres disponibles en streaming illimité en haute qualité sonore. Qobuz, c’est aussi le leader mondial du téléchargement Hi-Res 24-Bit.
For CDs, Amazon, ebay, or discogs. Digital music I usually get from the artist's webstore if possible, otherwise I'll buy it from Amazon or BandCamp.
One heads up, Buying and downloading digital music from Amazon is a pain in the butt if you have an Amazon Music subscription. Easy and straightforward though without.
Apple music is also possible but you have to burn the tracks to CD using itunes to move it out of Apple's ecosystem.
I also hear good things about Tidal but I've never used them.
Nowadays, Apple is only really big for digital music if you are (or were) already really deep in their ecosystem. Not sure I've heard of any devices that play nice with their DRM in a while and last I had looked (admittedly many years ago) they did not have a compatible app for Android.
Apple music was bigger back 15 or 20 years ago for digital downloads due in large part to the iPod, though I occasionally hear of some odd band or another that only releases their stuff on iTunes.
And since this is a linux community, as a heads up, iTunes is only marginally functional, last I heard, in linux. Apparently it can't detect connected devices. You'll probably need a Windows or Mac system to run iTunes if you want to go that route.
Yeah, I'm running home assistant with 43 Zigbee devices, 20 Wifi connected devices including about 150 channels of medium-high (once a minute) data logging (temperature, humidity, signal strength, sensor positions, radar occupancy info, etc.), and a Music Assistant instance, and while it's streaming net-radio I've only got 98% idle on my Pi's CPU, feeling the squeeze already /s.
Your Zigbee hub will run out of capacity long before the Pi. Solution: run multiple Zigbee hubs when you get to that point.
I have around 100 ZigBee devices, roughly 40 WiFi devices, three dozen integrations, Music Assistant, etc. And yeah I was feeling the squeeze. 🤷 Let alone security cameras....
Security cameras will do it, and the Pi5 doesn't have hardware decode for h.264 the way the Pi4 does, so that becomes a big drain, particularly if you don't drop the frame rates. I run a separate Pi (5, unfortunately) with a HAILO 8 hat (fortunately) for 5 video streams on Frigate - it needs some airflow to stay cool, but is only running about 30% CPU utilization for my streams.
Nextcloud seems a be an alternative to the G-Suite, did I get that right? That move to the cloud kinda missed me. I'm happy with LibreOffice and having everything stored locally.
Do you have experience with running a single-user Lemmy instance? I remember trying out some smaller instances, and they weren't as federated (i.e. I could see less content) than on the bigger ones.
PiHole, PiVPN, maybe a reverse proxy like nginx proxy manager to make connecting to your various web management portals you have an easy way to map it to a human readable url
Neat idea! If I were that orderly (I'm more of the mindset that what I don't remember probably wasn't important), I'd set up a normal website. I enjoy writing HTML by hand.
I've got Jellyfin running on an odroid, and it's pretty solid.
Not sure if you're the type to need access to your home network while away, but I also use a pi zero as my "login gateway"--I forward just port 22 to it from the WAN, and I have ssh set up to only allow logins with a key. I can set up dynamic port forwarding and tunnel through to my home network, and that pi zero has no other function (so even if I screw something else up on another server, I can still access my network).
You could also setup a git repo for your config files. That way you could revert changes, if you break something.
If you don't want do open your pi up to the internet you could take a look at tailscale. I use this script on my laptop and home pc to share files with sshfs while having any other traffic go through mullvad. Set this up on your pi with it as an exit node and you basically have access from anywhere.
Can I please ask why you prefer Adguard over Pihole?
The sd card in my raspberry 3b recently died, and my pihole with it. I am now using Adguard but not sure it's working well for me, consider going back. What's the winning argument for you?
Today I wanted to block everything with facebook and Instagram, it looks like I am hand-editing a config file to do so. And it applies to the entire network; AGH has no concept of user groups. Am I missing something really obvious?
let it run dwarf fortress from within the terminal, then ssh into it from wherever you are so you can play df from anywhere in the world. i did this at work.
Well it's a small processor and relatively efficient one at that so... how about going the opposite direction? How about measuring the power draw on idle? With other task? I don't actually know if that architecture handles that but I saw some things on the do developer.arm.com/documentatio…
+1 Joplin has been rock solid. It has features that make other apps a deal breaker for me. I host some work related notes, and share to a work account, that way not all of my notes are exposed to a work computer, yet don’t have to juggle accounts on my personal equipment. It’s wonderful.
A realtime acoustic bird classification system for the Raspberry Pi 5, 4B 3B+ 0W2 and more. Built on the TFLite version of BirdNET. - Nachtzuster/BirdNET-Pi
PiHole is a pretty light load, as are Home Assistant and Music Assistant. Frigate starts to make some heat, so don't expect to get a full blown video classification / recording system.
I use my Pi 4B as a DVR for movies and OTA television (MythTV).
There are other tools that handle playback better (OSMC/Kodi, etc) but Myth's configuration and handling of recording schedules is incredibly powerful. Conflict management works well and it can record multiple streams off the same tuner so conflicts are reduced in the first place.
As a general thing because I found myself trying to justify my Gear Acquisition Syndrome -- it's a good idea to split services across devices, rather than having some monolithic home server (which is where most people start). That way if one box goes down, it doesn't take down your whole stack.
If you have some machines scattered about doing different things, it might be time to consider logically grouping services and splitting them across that hardware.
Raspberry Pi I'm not sure if it's worth it. But in short you can advance some science with spare CPU hours. Should be possible to limit it so it doesn't heat up and use just a bit of the cycles depending on other load...
So I have a smart plug set up on my printer and print server (old HP 4P with separate network print server.
I have NodeRed watching my CUPS queues via HTTP scraping, and if it sees a job in the queue for that printer, it turns on the print server and printer via the smartplug over wifi. I have seen someone link a project that does something similiar.
I run a asterisk PJSIP VOIP server on my raspberry pi 5 8GB. I had to use the git and build and recompile and manually load all PJSIP modules because for some reason I couldn't even find an asterisk package on apt db for ARM64 for some fucking reason. Also had to containerize it within a docker because the shit couldn't properly compile without interfering with native system binaries. Shit is so fucking goated and can do PSTN via twilio trunking (call numbers outside of the phone server's number base so basically anyone as long as you make the phone numbers parsed in extensions.conf for each country you wanna call XD). Currently works within LAN but I am planning on making it accessible over the internet using my domain and a tunnel for UDP if possible or just a VPN since my router is being a removed with SIP packets rn. I am having trouble with that part but once it's done I can quite literally ditch any phone plan and use it. Twilio hardly even charges shit for voice rates 🤣🤣🤣. You could also self host your domain + email providing service and then connect that to thunderbird for full schizo-level privacy or sum shit. That's what I do to ditch web-email BS

No shit. They were calling for peace talks for about 3 years and now that they're steadily advancing and your sponsor is pulling your funding you want a ceasefire?
How would they justify it to their people (and the soldiers) after the escalations of the past few months, including the drone attacks on apartment blocks?
I'm not going to debate whatever you have to say. You are clearly misinformed.
But since you like Russian (dis)information so much, perhaps you should read the russian book called foundations of geopolitics. Specifically the section on Ukraine.
The Foundations of Geopolitics was written by a fascist who is more popular with European & American fascists than with his own government or people.
Maybe you should read The Grand Chessboard—written by someone who had actual influence in US government geostrategy—specifically the sections on Ukraine and the eastern expansion of NATO.
To be clear, I support Ukraine and Ukrainian sovereignty. I do not believe that Ukraine is run by Nazis or fascists.
I'm very much aware who Alexander durgan is. My point was that this urgently required special military operation has been a pre-planned eugenist and fascist operation that has been planned by the Russian government since the '90s. You know 35 years. Kind of invalidates the whole idea that Russia is only reacting to on the ground facts and movements.
Ukraine (except Western Ukraine) should be annexed by Russia because "Ukraine as a state has no geopolitical meaning, no particular cultural import or universal significance, no geographic uniqueness, no ethnic exclusiveness, its certain territorial ambitions represents an enormous danger for all of Eurasia and, without resolving the Ukrainian problem, it is in general senseless to speak about continental politics". Ukraine should not be allowed to remain independent, unless it is cordon sanitaire, which would be inadmissible according to Western political standards. As mentioned, Western Ukraine (comprising the regions of Volynia, Galicia, and Transcarpathia), considering its Catholic-majority population, are permitted to form an independent federation of Western Ukraine but should not be under Atlanticist control.
You seem to be very confused. I am stating that Dugan has been leading Putins foreign policy because the things that Dugan wrote for the most part have been executed by Putin's governments.
Dugin is apparently quite popular among Russian brass
Dugan is for a fact speaking completely out of his ass, it doesn't change the fact that he's loved and respected and his words are preached across the Russian federation.
I used to know a few moscovites and discuss politics but that was before Ukraine happened
I’m not confused. Dugin is an utter clown whom Putin wouldn’t even give the time of day. He’s not leading shit, except other Western crypto-fascist grifters like Caleb Maupin.
Caleb Todd Maupin (born 30 December 1987 in Orrville, Ohio) is a LaRouchite patriotic socialist journalist, political activist, and cult founder from the United...
Again, you seem confused. I agree with you that Dugan is a clown. Where I am disagreeing with you is the fact that he is uninfluential. If he was a nut job as you propose and treated as such by his fellow Russians, then his plans would not see the light of day let alone battlefield action.
Despite Western governments and Western media claims to the contrary, Dugin’s plans haven’t seen the light of day, Brzezinski’s have: his neocon plans to expand NATO eastward and leverage Ukrainian Banderites, to weaken & isolate Russia, and ideally to balkanize it. Ukraine is a pawn on Brzezinski’s chessboard. This is the war the United States has wanted for decades, as explained in the book he wrote around when he was Carter’s National Security Advisor. Meanwhile Dugin’s job title may as well be social media influencer. Even Wikipedia doubts his state influence.
We were lied to about the Iraq war, we were lied to about the Ukraine war, and they’re already lying to us about the Iran war.
Ukraine NATO version of a ceasefire proposal is so Ukraine can dig new defensive lines, and let western weapons production catch up with donations. Conducting terrorist operations day before meetings doesn't put Russia in a good mood either.
Zelensky power/bribery clinging does not bring peace to Ukraine any time soon.

"The poll also found that nearly two thirds of Britons (65 percent) want the UK to implement the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he were to visit the UK."
According to the NGOs, the findings show “growing public pressure for legal accountability and a decisive government response”.
More than half of Britons oppose Israel’s war on Gaza, with the vast majority of those saying Israel’s conduct amounts to genocide, a new poll has showed.
Culture Minister Miki Zohar declared on social media that “only the scum of the earth fires missiles at hospitalized children and elderly people in their sick beds”. The chair of Israel’s medical association, Zion Hagay, decried the strike as a war crime and urged the international medical community to condemn it.
This swift and unified condemnation by Israeli political and medical leadership underscores a striking contradiction: these same actors not only ignored but openly justified the destruction of Gaza’s hospitals over the past two years.
Israeli officials frame these hospitals as military targets and Hamas “shields”. Shifa, the largest hospital in Gaza, was placed under siege and then invaded, with the attack hailed by Israeli media as a victory.
Meanwhile, the Israeli Medical Association remained silent. In one of its rare statements after a year and a half of Israel’s repeated and targeted attacks on hospitals and civilian infrastructure, the association echoed the state’s narrative, stating that health facilities and personnel must not be targeted “unless these are being used as a base for terrorist activities”.
This moment puts the international system to the test. While some medical and humanitarian groups have expressed concern, most international stakeholders have remained silent in the face of the destruction of Gaza’s entire health system.
Will medical journals, international associations and UN bodies respond to the attack on an Israeli hospital with the kind of swift condemnation and concrete actions they failed to take when hospitals in Gaza were bombed? The world should have acted when the first operating room was hit in Gaza. It should not take an Israeli facility being targeted for them to remember that hospitals are meant to be protected spaces.
If an attack on a hospital is a red line, this must be true for all hospitals, not just those serving Israelis. If international law is to mean anything, it must protect everyone, with the same standards applied to every violation. Anything less is not only hypocrisy; it is complicity.

The bio in the profile says "Christian, husband, dad" first, and then "Vice President".
Just like every replyguy on Twitter with a "Christian, husband, dad" bio. They always put that info first, and in that order.
