Extremely scary message. Deranged.
Why are European countries still buying services from his company Palantir?
Russia enters Viktor Orban's election campaign, providing consultants who will flood social media with messages designed, ironically, to frame Orbán, a Russia puppet, as "the only candidate who can keep Hungary sovereign"

How Trump’s War in Iran Has Echoes of Putin & Ukraine: The many similarities between the White House’s justification for war in Iran & Russia’s messaging on Ukraine underscore the risks of a vaguely defined, open-ended war.

Trump didn't want to hurt his friend Putin's feelings, so the U.S. voted AGAINST condemning Russia's deadly winter attacks on Ukraine's energy grid, joining such luminaries as Russia, China, and Niger. Shameful.

What The Fall Of The Iranian Regime Means

Did you read it? What should we do about the financial and political influence of people like Roy Singham?
but after receiving millions from Singham, now refer to the Uyghurs as "terrorists" and started a campaign called "China is not our enemy".
but is guilty of oppressing Chinese dissidents, Tibetans, Uyghurs, and others, and threatening Taiwan. We can't allow the Chinese government to whitewash their crimes on the backs of the movements for peace in Gaza and Iran. Code Pink used to defend the Uyghurs...
We should not promote ANSWER Coalition, Code Pink, and The People's Forum, who are all funded by Roy Singham, a supporter of the Chinese government. The Chinese government is opposed to the wars in Gaza and Iran...
