I stand by my prediction made weeks ago that Trump was going to sell out Taiwan in exchange for soybean purchases.

Hegsbreath, log PT enthusiast and the US Army’s worst company commander wades in.

Unbelievable.
Calling them the “Seditious Six” & branding their statements “despicable” before review is textbook definition of prejudgment. No panel, judge, or reviewing authority can claim neutrality once the SECDEF declares the accused guilty. This looks like the procedures used in dictatorships, not the US.

“Forced peace today, bigger war tomorrow.”

New York stands in a peaceful protest against the ‘28-Point Peace Plan.’

Actual peace must be on Ukrainian terms, with russia facing accountability for their crimes.

Thank you for taking a stand🧵

Trump went on a late night posting bender last night on the war in Ukraine. He criticized Biden, he criticized the U.S., he criticized Ukraine, he criticized Zelensky, he criticized our European allies. The only person he didn’t criticize is Putin. Only Putin.

Shocker, huh?

God, America loves the Aussies. Canada, not so much.

The Aussies don’t get mocked, threatened with annexation, or told they don’t pay their “dues”.

And wanna know a secret? They don’t spend any more on defence than Canada does.

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

Kirill Dmitriev, Russia’s representative in peace talks, dismissed the EU’s counterproposal: “EU warmongers want the war to continue till the last Ukrainian,” he said. His comment signals Russia's likely rejection of the plan and that fighting will persist.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

The Trump surrender of Ukraine descends into utter chaos. But “chaos” is too mellow a word: What we have here is a rich bouillabaisse of incompetence, mendacity, tragedy, farce, and diplomatic blunder. Words have a hard time keeping up with the story. But we’ll try. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Do I understand correctly that there is now a dispute within the administration about whether this "peace plan" was written by Russians or Americans?

According to Republican Senator Mike Rounds, Rubio told senators that the 28-point peace plan drawn up by Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and his Russian counterpart, Kirill Dmitriev, was actually a Russian plan that the U.S. had agreed to pass along to Ukraine.

There is absolutely no reason for the European Union and NATO to behave like we are hostage to the policy choices and objectives of the United States on matters of international affairs, in particular, on Russia's war and genocide against Ukraine. We're not slaves or pawns to Washington.

CAF social media posts are flooded with abusive comments from Alberta separatists, antivaxxers, the far right, trolls, and neo-Nazis. Many are bots but most are real and, alas, some are veterans.

A military account can post on any subject and the result is the same.
This PAO deserves recognition.
Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

This is a new and dire development in the ongoing American constitutional crisis. The voters, Congress, and, yes, the U.S. military must all now be more vigilant than at any time in our modern history.
