Rubio just made a speech to the European defense community in Munich that did not mention Ukraine. Or democracy. Or US business deals with Russia. Or the administration's plans to support the European far right. But there were lots of nice words about our common civilization.

PM Tusk on Epstein: it is very likely that this was a planned operation by the Russian KGB.

More and more leads are pointing to suspicions that this unprecedented pedophilia scandal was co-organized by Russian intelligence services.

If Mandelson is being investigated for his Epstein connections, he must also be investigated for his Thiel connections, because they ran a joint fund when Mandelson fixed Starmer's visit to Palantir

A member of the Abu Dhabi royal family secretly invested $500 million into the Trump family’s crypto company, gaining a major ownership stake.

Months after inking the deal, the U.S. gave the UAE access to 500,000 advanced AI chips per year.

The corruption is breathtaking.

Western leaders tiptoeing around hoping things can be patched up are making mistake. Appeasement doesn’t work. Starmer should make clear to British public what’s at stake and prepare them for rough road ahead. I believe Brits wd respond positively, and be willing to accept some costs. Self respect.

With Trump, we see American imperialism with no clothes. Naked and vain. American imperialism is not just morally wrong. It is strategically disastrous.

What X is allowing Grok to do is unlawful or regulatory-illegal in multiple jurisdictions, creates clear DSA violations, and continues despite regulator scrutiny. The images do not need to be pornographic, non-consensual sexualised or intimate depictions are enough.

Remember: Trump or Russian propagandists might say otherwise, but Putin is not winning, and the Ukrainians are not losing.
I am told that internal Ukrainian army information shows that more than 26,000 Russian soldiers were killed or critically wounded in the month of November. Confirmed by videos. No wonder Putin wants to get Trump to give him territory for free

Since 1996 we have been able to prevent AIDS by treating people with HIV.
Treatment also prevents transmission.
Yet 1.3 million people acquired HIV last year and 630k people died of AIDS.
We can end HIV infections and AIDS by ensuring ALL have access to lifesaving, transmission preventing medicines.
