Great profile pic! 😂

So much of Trump’s shtick is performative. We have entered the “edgy nihilism“ phase of proceedings, where nothing matters more than the entertainment and distraction factor.

A remaining 14 ballistic missiles should make a splash somewhere. If no proof of the hits, then are they missing their targets and if so, why?

Wow, effective

Despite the prevailing story...

It’s always been the alliances that let America project power and influence. Not to mention its currency. Talk about shooting ones own foot off.

The IOC shares FIFA’s ethics it would seem

Necessity breeds innovation

The Backchannel: Always Open

Makes sense!

How do they empty it?

Collective bargaining works!

A real tragedy. Hirst was a powerhouse - everywhere.

I see…

What’s with the Shades? Top-Gun Macron?

A day late, a dollar short and sans strategy. Well done 🙃

Unreal, considering what’s at stake.

Trump trying and failing to stay relevant.

$60,000 a pop per Javelin, I believe. I guess that adds up quick if it takes a few.

Put perfectly…

Can’t wait to hear Trumps strategy behind this…

The Higuerote Airport, east of Caracas, has been struck as part of the ongoing U.S. military operation. Secondary explosions are clearly visible.

Trumpistan Strikes Again 💣

Feels like a last, desperate attempt at relevance. Trump has no leverage with Europe stumping up 90 Billion. As soon as Ukraine doesn’t need so many Patriots, the US will be sidelined completely.

Surrounded by friends and family…

Wow, awesome footage 🫡

It has to get done, and it will.

Yeah, the Europeans know their mark. Given the bumbling incompetence of trump and co, I expect the approach to backfire.

Wants the glory for himself 😒

Clever of Tusk to ramp up the pressure on Trump, Witkoff & Co. They are populists after all, and if the wind of public opinion gets behind security guarantees, then their hands are tied. We even got the sanctions after a while and with enough will…
