We are working on an update of our report on Russiaโ€˜s hybrid warfare, itโ€™ll include examples from Poland and Germany and come out in June. Stay tuned !

The point of this report is to show that Russia has been using the hybrid tactics for way longer than just the past 3 years.

The problem is: they've mistaken correlation for causation. They think their parents and grandparents had a good life *because* of manufacturing jobs. When, in reality, their parents and grandparents had a good life *despite* manufacturing jobs, because of unions, high taxes, and social policies.

Denmarkโ€™s recent surge in defence spending is financed by the surplus in the public budget.

In 2024 Denmark had a surplus of 133bn DKK (17.8bn EUR) or 4,5% of GDP up from 92bn DKK (13.3bn EUR) or 3.3% of GDP in 2023.

US treaties are part of the supreme law of the land.

I question whether a presidential directive to the US military to invade and annex the territory of a NATO ally would be a "lawful order."
