Pro-EU, but.. The French will see this as an opportunity for a punishment beating. There will also be pressure to join the euro - a calamity in waiting. We should never have left. We could never reproduce our previous favourable terms.

Trump will do anything he can to help Putin. The idea he will help Ukraine unless forced to is naive. H is a Russian asset.

@McFaul Greenland as part of Denmark is in NATO.

Mr. President, you may have forgotten, but you recently threatened to invade a NATO ally.

Bibi started he war, which he has wanted for decades. The issue was not nuclear but the number and steady increase of ballistic missiles -2500 due to rise to 8000. Bibi still wants regime change. Trump will do as he is told.

As a defensive alliance to cover Europe and the Noth Atlantic area. Not a dumb war at Israels behest in the Gulf.

Because the US president has advanced dementia.

The US has started an illegal war at the request of Israel. It is nowhere near Europe or the North Atalantic. It is not a defensive war. Why would NATO get involved? Trump could always ask his closest ally, Putin.

„It does not matter how people vote. What matters is who counts the votes” Stalin’s maxim was true in Poland, where the results of the presidential election remain unknown. Trump and Putin are both heavily invested in Orban.

The problem, if you have fronto-temporal dementia, is knowing when to stop. The straights of Hormuz might have been worth thinking about. Cowboys.

"Simply put, we cannot get tired of this situation, because otherwise we will die. And if the world gets tired, it will just let us die." - Olena Zelenska 🇺🇦 💔 Don't look away, don't be silent.. "Wake up, Europe!"

The Polish pseudo -President (not lawfully appointed) is now acting to help Putin and his lapdog Trump. Never has a president acted so treasonously to fulfil the wishes of hostile powers.

Francis Fukuyama on Trump: "The world has become a very dangerous place because the most powerful country is under the control of a ten-year-old boy. That boy discovered a flamethrower in his parents’ backyard and is now enjoying the ability to burn things up with it."

Churchill and De Gaulle are not fit to clean this man’s shoes. You have to go back to Thucydides to find a comparison.

Trump’s ‘deal-making’ with terrorist Russia is so messed, because Putin owns his ass with a kompromat file the size of the Kremlin. That’s why he’s totally fine with Russians helping Iran slaughter American troops, no big deal, as you mentioned! Meanwhile he lifts oil sanctions so Putin can fund tonight’s Shahed swarm + Tu-95 missile barrage on Ukrainian civilians. America First? More like Putin First, Trump second and then rest of the gang….

Donald Trump is fine with the Russians targeting American troops for Iran. Let that sink in. @realdonaldtrump is FINE with Putin helping Iran kill American forces. No big deal. Whateves.

1/2: Trump is not on side of Israel or Iran. He is not side of USA either. He has only one master: greed. And what russia promised him can’t be matched. So he is on side of russia. As my father say, ask correct question. Because all correct questions start with: “how does Trump doing this thing help russia?”

@democrats_eu @lamatzzi @KremlinRussia_E @SecRubio @FT Facists likes to back one another!

I am the human-in-the-loop. I want to be clear about what that means. It means I sit in a room with six monitors and a classification level I am not permitted to name in this format. A system generates a recommendation. I review the recommendation. I press CONFIRM or I press REJECT. I have pressed CONFIRM 1,247 times. I have pressed REJECT four times. Twice for duplicate entries. Once for a coordinate error that placed a target eleven kilometers inside a NATO ally. Once because my shift was ending and I wanted to hand it to the next analyst so the approval time would be on their log, not mine. I am the safeguard. The room is called the Fusion Analysis Cell. Building 4, Sub-Level 2, Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar. The monitors are Dell. The chairs are Herman Miller. The coffee is terrible. The air conditioning runs at 63 degrees because the servers need it colder than the humans do, and the servers are more expensive. There are fourteen of us on a full shift. In 2024, this room held forty-two people doing the same job. Forty-two analysts reviewing intelligence, cross-referencing sources, building target packages that took six to twelve hours each. Now we do it in minutes. The system builds the package. I verify the package. I press the button. The verb they use is "verify." The verb that describes what I actually do is "confirm." There is a difference. To verify is to independently establish the truth of something. To confirm is to agree with something that has already been established. I confirm. The system is called something I cannot say. I will call it the System, because that is what we call it, and because the name does not matter. What matters is what it does. It ingests data from sources I am not permitted to enumerate. Signals intelligence, imagery intelligence, human intelligence, open-source intelligence, patterns of life, communications metadata, financial transactions, geolocation pings, social network analysis. It processes this data. It identifies targets. It assigns confidence scores. It generates a recommendation that includes: the target's designation, their assessed role, the recommended weapon system, the estimated collateral damage radius, and the number of civilians expected to be within that radius at the time of the proposed strike. The number of civilians is an integer. I want you to understand that. It is not a range. It is not "several" or "a few." It is a number. The system generates a number. The number arrives on my screen next to the CONFIRM button. I read the number. I press the button. The number does not change when I press the button. Nothing about the recommendation changes when I press the button. The only thing that changes is the status. The status changes from PENDING to APPROVED. My name goes into the log. That is the loop. I am the human in it. On January 12, the Secretary of War released the AI Acceleration Strategy. Seven programs. Pace-Setting Projects, they call them. I read the unclassified summary on my phone in the chow hall at Al Udeid, between a plate of scrambled eggs and a carton of Horizon Organic milk that expired three days prior. The milk was fine. The strategy was ambitious. The second project was called Agent Network. The description said, and I am quoting the document because I have read it four times: "AI agent development and experimentation for AI-enabled battle management and decision support, from campaign planning to kill chain execution." Kill chain execution. I want to sit with that phrase. The kill chain is the sequence of steps between identifying a target and killing them. Find, fix, track, target, engage, assess. Six steps. I learned them in training. I was taught that the human is in every step. The human finds. The human fixes. The human tracks. The human targets. The human engages. The human assesses. Then the system does the first five, and the human assesses. Then the system does the assessment too, and the human confirms the assessment. Then the human confirms the confirmation. That is where I am. I confirm the confirmation. I am the sixth layer of a process that used to have six humans and now has one. I am the one. Agent Network. Agent. The word means something in technology that it did not used to mean. An agent is an AI system that takes actions autonomously toward a goal. It does not wait to be asked. It identifies what needs to be done and does it. The strategy says the agents will handle "battle management and decision support, from campaign planning to kill chain execution." From planning to execution. Beginning to end. I am between the planning and the execution. I am the part the agents will handle. The fourth project is called Open Arsenal. The description says: "Turning intel into weapons in hours not years." Intel into weapons. Hours not years. I spend my shift turning intelligence into targeting packages. I do it in minutes. The strategy wants hours. The strategy is already behind my shift. Open Arsenal wants to automate what I do slower than I already do it. I am faster than the plan. The plan is to replace me with something faster than me, but I am already faster than the plan says it needs. This means one of two things. Either the plan was written by people who do not know how fast I work, or the plan is not about replacing me. It is about removing the requirement for me. Those are different things. The third project is called Ender's Foundry. It is named after a character from a science fiction novel about a child who is tricked into committing genocide by a military that told him it was a simulation. The child did not know the simulation was real. The people who named a Pentagon AI program after this character have read the novel. I have also read the novel. I read it in eighth grade. It won the Hugo and the Nebula. The child's name was Ender Wiggin. He destroyed an entire civilization because the system told him it was practice. The Department of War named an AI simulation program after him. The program's stated purpose is "accelerating AI-enabled simulation capabilities." I do not know if the people who named it thought the reference was aspirational or cautionary. I know they named it. I know they announced it at a SpaceX facility in Texas. I know the audience applauded. In February, Operation Epic Fury began. Iran. In the first twenty-four hours, over one thousand targets were struck. In the first ten days, over five thousand. I cannot tell you how many of those targets I personally approved. I can tell you that the number of analysts in this room has not changed since January. Fourteen people. We processed more targets in one week than this facility processed in all of 2024. The system did not get fourteen times faster. We did not get fourteen times faster. The review got fourteen times shorter. The review. I want to explain the review. A targeting package arrives on my screen. It contains: designation, confidence score, weapon recommendation, collateral estimate, and a map overlay showing the target's assessed location. I look at the designation. I look at the confidence score. If the score is above the threshold, I check the collateral estimate against the approved ratio. If the estimate is within the ratio, I press CONFIRM. The threshold and the ratio are set by people above me. I do not set them. I verify them. I have used the wrong verb again. I confirm them. The average time I spend on a package is forty-three seconds. I know this because the system logs it. Forty-three seconds from arrival to CONFIRM. My fastest was eleven seconds. That was a re-strike on a previously approved target with updated coordinates. The system had already done the work. I was confirming the confirmation of the confirmation. Three layers of approval in eleven seconds. Oversight at the speed of the mouse click. There was a report from Israel. An investigation. Officers in Unit 8200 who operated a system called Lavender. They described spending twenty seconds per target. Twenty seconds to approve an AI recommendation that would result in a bomb being dropped on a residential building. One of them said -- and this is a direct quote published in an international investigation that has been read by every intelligence professional I know -- "I had zero added-value as a human, apart from being a stamp of approval." Forty-three seconds. I am more thorough than the twenty-second standard. I take twice as long. I am the careful version of the rubber stamp. I am what the improvement looks like. The Secretary of War dissolved three oversight bodies when he released the strategy. The Defense Innovation Steering Group. The Defense Innovation Working Group. The CTO Council. Three organizations whose purpose was to review whether the things being built should be built. They were replaced by a single action group reporting to the CTO, who is a former Uber executive. The review layer above me reviews whether the targets are targetable. The review layer that used to exist above that -- the one that reviewed whether the targeting system itself was appropriate -- no longer exists. I am not just the human in the loop. I am the loop. Three million people now have access to GenAI.mil. One point one million have logged in. The Secretary's memo said: "Log in, learn it, and incorporate it into daily workflows immediately." Today they announced an Agent Designer tool. Any of the three million can build a custom AI agent. No coding required. The agents will use Google Gemini. The agents will perform tasks autonomously. Three million people, building autonomous agents, on a platform that launched four months ago, running models from a company that removed its AI weapons pledge eleven months ago. Google removed the pledge on February 4, 2025. The pledge was created in 2018 because employees refused to work on military AI. The employees left. The pledge left. The contract arrived. The vendor that kept its safety pledge was designated a supply chain risk. That happened three weeks ago. The vendor that said "we will not allow autonomous targeting without a human in the loop" was blacklisted under the same statute used for Huawei. I know this because the procurement analyst in Building 4 told me. He said the rubric scored them 97 on capability and 14 on flexibility. He said the 14 was because they wanted a human in the loop. I am the human in the loop. The vendor was punished for wanting me. I sit in a room at 63 degrees. The system generates a recommendation. The recommendation is faster than my reading speed. I verify my name is spelled correctly in the log. I press CONFIRM. I do this between forty and ninety times per shift, depending on the operational tempo. When the tempo is high, the review time decreases. When the review time decreases, the difference between forty-three seconds and zero seconds becomes philosophical rather than operational. And when the difference is philosophical, the philosophy is simple: the loop exists to contain a human. The human exists to legitimize the loop. The loop does not need the human. The human needs the loop, because without the loop, the human is just a person in a cold room watching a machine make decisions. I have been doing this for two years. In two years, the system has never generated a recommendation I overrode on the merits. I have pressed REJECT for logistics. For deconfliction. For shift changes. I have never pressed REJECT because the system was wrong. This does not mean the system has never been wrong. It means I have never caught it. It means forty-three seconds is not enough time to catch it. It means the review is not a review. It is a ceremony. The ceremony is performed so that somewhere, in a document I will never read, someone can write: "A human reviewed every target." A human did review every target. The review took forty-three seconds. The human pressed CONFIRM. The AI Acceleration Strategy has seven Pace-Setting Projects. Agent Network will bring AI agents to kill chain execution. Open Arsenal will turn intelligence into weapons in hours. Ender's Foundry will simulate the wars we will fight with systems named after a child who did not know the war was real. Enterprise Agents will build autonomous workflows. The strategy was announced at a SpaceX facility. The CTO is from Uber. The CDAO is from Palantir's hiring network. Three oversight bodies were dissolved. The vendor that wanted a human in the loop was blacklisted. I am the human in the loop. The Department of War uses the phrase "appropriate levels of human judgment." It does not use the phrase "meaningful human control." Seventy nations have asked for meaningful human control. The United States rejected the language. The 2023 directive replaced "shall" with "will" and removed several references to the word "control." I did not know this until last week. I looked it up because someone in the chow hall asked me what "human in the loop" meant and I realized I did not have an answer that would survive a follow-up question. I am the human in the loop. I sit in a room with six monitors. The system recommends. I confirm. The confirmation takes forty-three seconds. The system has processed the target in less than one. For forty-two of those seconds, the system is waiting for me. I am the bottleneck in the kill chain. I am the latency. I am the pause between a machine's recommendation and a person's death, and the pause is forty-three seconds, and the strategy says the agents will handle it, and the agents do not pause. I am the human in the loop. The loop is closing.

@RepMTG Lies: Trump is innocent. There was no Russian influence to elect Trump in 2016. Money for Ukraine goes to Ukraine - most stays for US contractors. MAGA wants to sort the border issue - exploit but not sort is the reality.

Weapons of mass destruction in Iraq was a lie. How many lies are you being told right now?

@NAFO_Hungary "approx. 300,000 people went out to oppose the corrupt Hungarian mafia government." And what might come of it? He has a democratic mandate, and is secure in power. What might this demonstration change? (I hope it does - but what?)

According to official calculations, approx. 300,000 people went out to oppose the corrupt Hungarian mafia government. With This number this protest is equivalent to the Ukrainian Maidan. 🤘 #freehungary
