Hahaha that cracked me up ❤️😂 happy to give up the throne

Back in Tirana, where the only constant in the skyline is Mount Dajt in the background

Today’s testimony is giving massive ICTY nostalgia lol

Watching James Rubin testify in The Hague today in the trial of Hashim Thaci reminds me of how extraordinarily capable US diplomats and State Department employees used to be — no matter what you think of his/Clinton’s relationship with the KLA.

Peter Thiel & The Antichrist: Silicon Valley Apocalypse Hype Why are some of the richest people in the United States suddenly talking about demons, apocalypse, and even the “Antichrist”? On Monday, Peter Thiel—Palantir co-founder, Trump ally, and one of the mo...

On Monday, Peter Thiel begins a secret four-part Antichrist lecture series in San Francisco.

What the hell is going on? Why all this bible doom talk?

I talked to an Antichrist historian & a theologian about this outbreak of tech apocalypse hype:

reading Nick Fuentes' Wikipedia page, due to The News, and I mean I just don't think these are words that should be put together in that order, in the context of a person who is relevant to current affairs

“Between 1996 and 2001, Silvio Berlusconi came in from the cold, but he would never have been able to do so if the centre-left coalition which governed Italy in these years had not helped him along the way. If we return to the question of democratic antibodies mentioned in the Prologue of this book, to the degree of awareness and vigilance necessary in the changing conditions of modern democratic politics, we can see that the Italian centre-left suffered from major deficiencies. Its leaders had few of the qualities needed to confront so fast-moving, opulent and dangerous a player as Berlusconi. They offered no proper analysis of his rise to power. They were not clear, until it was too late, about the danger he represented. Though well-intentioned, they were overall less than resolute about the democratic ordering of the Italian state.”

Some prescient observations from twenty years ago

(Paul Ginsborg’s ‘Silvio Berlusconi: Television, Power and Patrimony’, 2005)

Geuzenbond leader Thomas D., arrested last week on terror and weapons charges, has been evicted from his Erp residence - the group's clubhouse. The second person who lived there has been named as *another* one of the three individuals we identified in our Feb 2024 @bellingcat.com article

Geuzenbond has (finally) confirmed in a statement that their leader Thomas D. was the individual arrested on suspicion of preparing a terrorist offence and weapons charges last week (I’m not resharing here). The organization identifies him themselves as “Thomas”, for what it’s worth.

‘He is finished’: Serbian protesters’ fury with Vučić hits boiling point POLITICO spoke to an opposition lawmaker who said he was beaten by masked men as demonstrations were met with a violent response.

Serbian protests turned violent this week, with even President Aleksandar Vučić acknowledging that a long-running standoff with his opponents has entered “the phase of beatings,” in a TV interview last night.

BIG BEAUTIFUL FAILURE

Yeah I don’t buy it for a second and it’s so stupid. All of this is so stupid (sorry this doesn’t merit a more profound take)

I love how Putin’s version of flattering Trump is him pretending it was Biden who forced him to invade Ukraine

He’s turning into one of those ornery old men who repeats fake war stories every time he gets drunk. We know the type Putin, stfu

Putin said “Trump says the war wouldn’t have started if he was in power, and I can confirm that.” Right — as if he hadn’t personally ordered the invasion, but was merely swept along by some cosmic force beyond his control. Give me a break

I swear, Putin rambling on about WWII and visiting WWII monuments over and over again — and I say this as someone obsessed with Eastern European history — is getting really fucking old

“Next time in Moscow.”

When Putin says it, in English, it suddenly sounds like the most ominous phrase in the English language

asked if he'll "commit to not killing any more civilians," Putin smirks and says something that you can't hear above the total chaos of the pool spray

I hate this cursed feeling when, yet again, the fate of me and my people is being decided by some old man across the ocean who has nothing to do with my country.

In the Netherlands, a 24-year-old man from Erp was arrested yesterday in Badhoevedorp, near Amsterdam, on suspicion of preparing a terrorist offense. The suspect is believed to be a member of Geuzenbond, a far-right group we wrote about last year @bellingcat.com

Pro‑Putin Balkan disruptor stripped of political office in Bosnia Milorad Dodik, the brash nationalist who cozied up to the Kremlin and divided Bosnia for years, could finally be booted from office.

Bosnia and Herzegovina’s battered post-war political system could lose its villain after the country’s election body stripped pro-Russian separatist politician Milorad Dodik of office and banned him from political activity for at least six years today.

Man, I can’t remember the last time I went through someone’s mentions and ended up liking almost every response disagreeing with them

👏👏👏

Stark warning from the AFP journalists association

Tucker Carlson’s comments also betray the inclination of wealthy Americans for gaudy buildings loooong after they became passé in Europe. So yeah, he’s trashy af as well as being an uneducated far-right guy

At a recent Oval Office event Trump invoked Serbia and Kosovo again, claiming he’d just defused an “imminent” war — a conflict so stealthy that literally no one in Kosovo, Serbia or the wider Balkans knew it was taking place.

Honestly if this story landed on my desk I’d be pretty worried about how to package it in a respectable way 😂
