Uh. Oh.
Russian propagandist Solovyev is starting to sound like "a new leader of the Russian opposition':

He criticized the Russian economy.

Not one single person crowing that standing up to Trump works did anything to build support for the individual entities facing Trump in the first weeks and months. Guaranteed.

“When his homegrown remote control app started talking to DJI’s servers, it wasn’t just one vacuum cleaner that replied. Roughly 7,000 of them, all around the world, began treating Azdoufal like their boss.”
The DJI Romo robovac had security so poor, this man remotely accessed thousands of them
DJI may have fixed it now.

There will be people who are understandably desperate to hear this, but it's important to be clear-eyed about Rubio himself and what the Trump administration is doing. 🧵

Putin has been stealing from civilian investment, so this is the result.

Compare with Ukrainian results.

Is everyone reposting this because she agreed with a guy who ended up in the AfD?

Most of the world is in poverty, yet the populist right wing and this narrative is most powerful within affluent societies.

And problems though there are, "failure of Democracies to deliver" is ceding too much.
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

I thank Mark for the meeting and for his consistent support. I am also grateful for the highly productive meeting in the Ramstein format – partners confirmed the allocation of €38 billion in military aid for Ukraine. And that is truly significant.

I want to ask you to take a moment and read this: there is no power station left in Ukraine that’s not damaged by Russian bombing.
Not one.

Thank you for your attention.
