If Scholz "returns" the Sudetenland to Germany. If Orban "returns" Transylvania or "upper Hungary". If Austria's current clowns "return" Sud Tyrol - almost any country in modern Europe can play this stupid game. But for whatever reason, with Russia, we pretend it's legit.

TBF, I don't even think this rose to the level of an argument - it was just too one-sided.

Why was Georgian @PM_Kobakhidze hanging out with IRGC, Hezbollah and Hamas leaders in Iran just a few months ago? The same terrorists actively plotted to assassinate @realDonaldTrump and call for the death of America every day. We see you 👀 America will not be fooled.

A lot of people thought Russian disinformation was exagaratted as a force in our politics. Other investigations and indictments could be brushed off. Not this case. You have a network of right-wing influencers everyone has heard of, some with millions of followers, directly paid by Putin’s government to repeat his line on Ukraine. Hopefully this creates unity around the idea that Russian disinformation threatens American democracy.

.@intel is blocking people for asking questions regarding Russia’s procurement of Intel chips
Every day, russians attack Ukraine with missiles with American chips. Without them, these missiles would not exist. One of the companies whose chips russia uses is @intel I asked why Intel helps russians kill Ukrainians. In response, the company blocked me. The blood of Ukrainians is on their hands.

Agreed, truth shouldn’t be suppressed. Which is why it’s best not to dump it in a landfill site, pour over it a slurry of half-truths, misinformation, insults, blatant lies, random speculation and conspiracy, and then above that stinking mess type the word ‘True.’
Freedom of speech is the bedrock of democracy. If the truth is suppressed, it is impossible to make an informed voting decision. The degree to which freedom of speech is being undermined around the world is extremely alarming.

Nowhere. This is just a civil conflict between Moscow and local oppressed Ukrainian speakers who have been bombed for eight years. Ukraine is not a party to the conflict.

The UK’s new Labour government needs to dust off the ISC’s 2020 Russia Report classified annex with a view to sanitising and publishing it. The British people should know why Boris Johnson suppressed the report and just how far Putin and his cronies have corrupted our democracy.

Razom for Ukraine is calling on @POTUS @WhiteHouse to immediately change its policy banning Ukraine from striking all legitimate military targets in Russia. Razom's Director of Advocacy Mykola Murskyj breaks down exactly why this policy must change. Let Ukraine defend itself.

Kamala's national electoral viability was slight long before last week - the fact that voters now know she played a central role in hiding POTUS's rapidly declining mental condition from the public is disqualifying for a wide range of voters, including me. Release the delegates.

This is nauseating ahistorical drivel and more Kremlin propaganda. Nobody provoked Putin. Nobody “poked the bear with a stick”. The people of Ukraine voted overwhelmingly in 1991 to be a sovereign and independent country. They were perfectly entitled to seek both NATO and EU membership. There is only one person responsible for Russian aggression against Ukraine - both in 2014 and 2022 - and that is Putin. To try to spread the blame is morally repugnant and parroting Putin’s lies. It is bizarre that the author should also suggest we now reduce our support for Ukraine, when the solution to the conflict is in fact clear - the Ukrainians need to win, and to repel Putin’s invasion. They can and they will. The problem in the last 30 years has not been western provocation but western weakness in the face of Russian aggression - a weakness exemplified by this article. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/06…

Hope Danny Ainge is getting his deserved recognition today. After closing the door on a championship era to begin a rebuild, he had to be perfect with those top-three Nets picks. Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown weren't the consensus choices. Not close. Now, they're the centerpieces.

Can we be honest here for a second? Maybe bully ball and enforcer brawls work in men's basketball, but it's a garbage look in the women's game that will only attract fans with very strange internet search histories and restraining orders

Polish President Andrzej Duda with an excellent speech at Ukraine's Peace Summit in Switzerland. “Russia, called the ‘prison of nations,’ is home to 200+ ethnic groups, most acquired through colonial methods. Unlike European powers, Russia never decolonized and remains the world's largest colonial empire” #UAPeaceSummit #PathToPeace

Putin’s proposal for ending the war is the total and unconditional surrender of Ukraine, international legitimacy for Russia’s annexations and the permanent subjugation of the Ukrainian people. Rather than trying to analyse this as a serious proposal, people should stop demanding Ukraine even entertains these ideas. There can be no compromise with Russian fascism.
