*Gets asked a question by NBC*

Trump: โ€œYou guys are fake news, NBC has gone down the drain.โ€

Orban is probably thinking โ€œyeah I got rid of that problem in my country a long time ago.โ€

Orban: โ€œIf the US hadnโ€™t pushed as strongly in 2022 after the invasion European countries would not be that invested in Ukraine.โ€ (ie a dig at Biden)

Trump: โ€œI inherited this war from Bidenโ€ฆ Biden wanted this war to happen.โ€

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 โ€” no matter what you think of his/Clintonโ€™s relationship with the KLA.

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

โ€œBetween 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.โ€

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 (Iโ€™m not resharing here). The organization identifies him themselves as โ€œThomasโ€, for what itโ€™s worth.

โ€˜He is finishedโ€™: Serbian protestersโ€™ fury with Vuฤiฤ‡ 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 Vuฤiฤ‡ acknowledging that a long-running standoff with his opponents has entered โ€œthe phase of beatings,โ€ in a TV interview last night.

I love how Putinโ€™s version of flattering Trump is him pretending it was Biden who forced him to invade Ukraine

Putin said โ€œTrump says the war wouldnโ€™t have started if he was in power, and I can confirm that.โ€ Right โ€” as if he hadnโ€™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 โ€” and I say this as someone obsessed with Eastern European history โ€” is getting really fucking old

โ€œNext time in Moscow.โ€

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

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

Proโ€‘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 Herzegovinaโ€™s battered post-war political system could lose its villain after the countryโ€™s election body stripped pro-Russian separatist politician Milorad Dodik of office and banned him from political activity for at least six years today.
