Only in America could a Ketamine-infused South African oligarch call a navy captain, astronaut and sitting US senator "a traitor" for supporting our allies and standing up to Russia...

Once again I am leaving the Munich Security Conference in a low mood. Amongst all the noise, the US signalled their plans for Europe, so things are becoming clearer. But things are clearly not good.
This is what we now know, and what we have to do about it:🧵1/17

Not sure, but hopefully Hegseth bows out and only Gabbard is left to vote against.
I know RFK is dangerous, and he might flame out too, but the national security/justice nominations were and are the big three to worry about.

Has any president lost 2 announced cabinet nominees before their confirmation hearing commenced?

Gonna dissent here: Blocklists are a hazard here on Bluesky. People create them, give them names you'd think you agree with, then add people to sucker you into blocking them. Don't use blocklists. Curate your blocks, and enjoy them properly :)
Another great feature, sharable block list. Just check them before you subscribe bsky.app/profile/did:...

Due to the lack of any real algorithm on Bluesky and the "Following" page being a simple reverse chronological list of posts by accounts you follow, it is important to repost posts that you want to others to see, as engagement itself does not boost posts.
