@JewishWonk And a Holocaust Museum that does not recognize it, does not deserve the name, quite frankly. A major question in Jewish remembrance is whether "Never again" applies only to Jews or to all people. I know where I stand. Where do you?

@JewishWonk Just as Jews were targeted in the streets of Warsaw and Amsterdam, so are black and brown people being targeted in the streets of American cities. I don't want to live in a "papers please" society, because I know where that leads. It's a legitimate, timely metaphor.

Your periodic reminder that Xitter is run by a nazi whose AI tool generates underage porn. Go outside, the sky is blue.

Trust me on thisโ€”a demilitarized zone in Russian-controlled territory is pure fantasy. It will never happen. The fact that this is being discussed at all is a testament to the extremely low levels of Russia competence among the US negotiators.

Everybody is involved in some kind of Ukraine negotiations - except for Putin. He continues to refuse to engage. He will listen to Witkoff's proposals and reject them - while holding a lecture about history. There is a lot of talking, but no meaningful negotiations taking place.

Reminder that a real deal with Russia is wishful thinking. There won't be a "dirty peace" where we just have to hold our noses and things will be fine. The problem will not be contained. Stop dreaming. Europe needs to learn to defend itself.

@jakluge I thought that oil sales were taxed based on Brent prices (with some adjustments). Is that not the case?

Russian Urals oil price in rubles - the relevant indicator for Russian budget revenues. Ruble strength, low oil prices and sanctions are a toxic mixture for the Russian treasury.

@jakluge Where do you see their deficit landing in for the full year? My somewhat conservative estimate is somewhere between 7.5 and 8 trillion for 2025.

Here's another way to illustrate why Russia's budget plan for 2025 is unrealistic: To stay within the spending plan, Russia would have to fit the light and dark blue parts (November and December) into the red box (the remaining budget this year).

A Fox News White House reporter asked a question that could have come straight from one of the Kremlin's top propagandists. The formulation suggests that Ukraine and not Russia is the aggressor, and that Kyiv should hand over territory to Moscow.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Doocy asks Zelenskyy an insanely loaded question: "Are you prepared to keep sending Ukrainian troops to their deaths for another couple years, or are you going to agree to redraw the maps?"
