Photojournalist primarily focused on the impact of conflict on civilians and political movements. I once spent the better part of a decade researching how governments work.
Sir you're a grown man, don't call us chat.

The "invasion" narrative is a historically white nationalist position and while I generally don't expect much from them, or any politician, it still shocks me that this has largely become the default position of the GOP.

My apologies. I am not highly familiar with how this platform works and am trying to straighten that out.

Important to remember that under the Budapest Memorandum, signed in 1994, Russia and U.S. agreed to provide security to Ukraine in exchange for giving up its nuclear weapons and Russia has been striking civilian targets in Ukraine with missiles, rockets, and drones for roughly four years.

My DM's should be open so not sure what happened with that, but thank you for the recommendation. Is his name spelled Devon Hendricks?

That'd be cool. Lmk when the preorder goes live and I'll pick it up. Also, I have spent 6-7 months on the ground in Ukraine in the last two years, so in the unlikely event you ever want some ideas shoot me a DM. You seem like a good dude, happy to help if I can.

In the last year hackers have been hitting Polish energy and telecom targets. Not trying to tell you how to write your book but I think having a cybersecurity aspect would be cool, and timely, bc hybrid warfare actions have become increasingly common in that part of the world.

I’d also be interested to learn where all that capital went. Part of it went into gold and silver but I don’t think these movements could account for all that outflow.

Like watching a group of them all do that at once.

One of my life’s many twists and turns was getting a law degrees when I was younger.
