To the "ally" with the audacity to utter the words "ease up on attacks against russia" when they just spent months deliberately targeting Ukrainian energy infra in attempt to freeze them to death: Fuck you. I hope your spouse beats the living shit out of you.

Newly released phone calls reveal that Javier Milei was in direct contact and received regular payments from the cryptocurrency scammers behind the Libra rug-pull, which Milei himself promoted and defrauded people out of millions. nytimes.com/2026/04/06/wor…

@argentcorvus @turveyandrew1 @clm_sync @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 Personally I just ignore emotional aspects in comments. Idc if people are frustrated as long as it's based on facts and their input itself isn't about repeating lies, whataboutism and shitposting.

@argentcorvus @turveyandrew1 @clm_sync @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 Ah actually that would be neocons. It's funny because it has nothing to do with current US foreign policy but helps inflame the situation on both sides because it's repetition, not a new idea. On toxicity again we see that from Americans just the same. lisa.gerda-henkel-stiftung.de/anti_europeani…

Trump thinks Europe needs NATO more than America does. His generals know better. Here’s what the US loses without it. 1. Its European base network Over 50 US military bases across Europe housing 84,000 troops. Ramstein in Germany is the largest US air base outside America and the hub for every US operation in the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia. RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk is home to the only US F-35 wing in Europe, the same base the F-15 shot down over Iran last week flew from. These aren’t gifts to Europe. They are America’s front door to the rest of the world. 2. The geography it can never replace The US sits thousands of miles from every major conflict zone on earth. Europe puts American forces within striking distance of the Middle East, North Africa, the Sahel, the Arctic and Russia’s western border. No aircraft carrier replaces an entire continent. Without European bases America is projecting power across two oceans from a single landmass. That is not a superpower posture, it is an island. 3. Its intelligence network GCHQ, MI6 and European intelligence agencies feed directly into US operations. Five Eyes gives America more global surveillance reach than any other arrangement in history. Lose NATO and that pipeline closes. 4. Two allied nuclear powers The UK and France have independent nuclear arsenals. Outside NATO those weapons are no longer guaranteed to be on America’s side. That is two fewer nuclear powers in your corner. 5. Its arms export market European NATO members are America’s biggest weapons customers. F-35s, Apaches and Patriot missiles, hundreds of billions in contracts. If Europe goes it alone they buy European. Lockheed Martin and Boeing lose their biggest export market overnight. 6. The dollar’s global dominance NATO helps underpins the security order that keeps allies trading in dollars and holding dollar reserves. Collapse that alliance and the shift to alternative currencies accelerates. No single advantage matters more to American prosperity. 7. A trillion-dollar insurance policy 31 other countries have a legal obligation to fight for America if attacked. The only time Article 5 was ever triggered was to defend the US after 9/11. Over 1,100 allied soldiers died in Afghanistan answering that call. No other country on earth has anything close to this. 8. Its seat at the head of the table NATO makes America the leader of the free world. Without it the US is just another big country with a big army stranded between two oceans with no allies. China and Russia would celebrate for a decade.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Without NATO, America doesn’t gain independence. It loses an empire.

@argentcorvus @turveyandrew1 @clm_sync @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 You're doing the same thing after reading their venting after, again, all they've heard for months is that they're lazy, weak and useless and their dead don't mean anything. Sadly many Americans now live like that misinformation is gospel. Should they not be corrected?

@AlessaSCyan @turveyandrew1 @clm_sync @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 It mystifies me that the European response to apparent misinformation that is anti-Europe seems to be for Europeans to get online and say the nastiest most toxic bullshit they can come up with and then act like Americans should just take that.

@argentcorvus @turveyandrew1 @clm_sync @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 Anyway we see this going on and we're sincerely asking whether you've really thought this all the way through. At the very least it doesn't seem like many of you are given the facts. Your politicians don't seem to care. So people post them.

@argentcorvus @turveyandrew1 @clm_sync @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 Just to be sure that was never true. Every instance to enforce international rules-based order was created for US to look after their own interests. Aid to European nations was for US interests. Joining NATO and US presence in Europe is for US interests.

I'd be pretty embarrassed if my country was led by such a fucking manbaby.

That green line shows the immigrants ICE arrested who have ever had a violent criminal conviction. Then the orange line is all other crimes. Then you have the blue line for noncriminals. Since inauguration day, ONLY THE NONCRIMINAL LINE IS UP. It couldn't be any clearer.

Meanwhile in Russia: state TV host Vladimir Solovyov urged Russians to dedicate themselves to the ultimate goal of defeating America in the near future. His weatherman added that Russia doesn't need a peace deal, and entering into one would be treasonous. youtube.com/watch?v=cDouaj…

FT has confirmed what we all speculated from the “Draft for Pakistan PM” post. The White House pushed Pakistan into brokering this “ceasefire” as Trump was desperate for an out. Iran had to be dragged to the table, which is why their demands have not changed and why this peace will breakdown as neither want to budge on terms. Trump is trying to negotiate as if he has leverage, and he doesn’t. But his inability to cede points, means we’re not any closer to a resolve.

@Cwg7791 @turveyandrew1 @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 They weren't and your if-then isn't logical. A cow taking a shit on the desert isn't doing charity just because a scarab happens to benefit from it.

@turveyandrew1 @AuthorRoyA @VeryBrexitProbs @NicholasOShaug1 Are you denying that the USA presence benefits Europe? If so, then NATO is very much a European charity to the USA and Europe should be welcoming this news.

In 2003, russia’s president Putin went to Kyiv and signed a russo-Ukrainian Treaty on Border, saying “all border questions between russia and Ukraine are closed” and “russia and Ukraine will cooperate further as equal partners”. Of course he lied.

"As for Republicans, they’ve had to confront the reality that their leader isn’t playing 10-dimensional chess. With the midterms bearing down on them, they’re yoked to someone who won’t just come all the way up to the line and put one toe over it, but may actually plunge headlong into the nuclear abyss." publicnotice.co/p/trump-iran-t…

Polling 20 points ahead of the Russian-backed kleptocrat Victor Orban for an election that's only 4 days away, opposition candidate Peter Magyar tells both the Americans and Russians to get the hell out of Hungary's politics.

PROF. LUCAS: I was interviewing Ukrainian media friends last week and one of them said, "Yeah, we've got the Baltics to thank." Tip-off was clear: intelligence for Ukrainian strikes on Russian Baltic ports may not be coming from Americans — it may be coming from Baltic states.

NEW: A stunning new report claims that the Pentagon summoned Pope Leo XIV’s top American diplomat and threatened him after the U.S.-born pontiff gave his January state-of-the-world address. Leo used the address to denounce a world ruled by “a diplomacy based on force” and “zeal for war.” thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-pentagon…

Reading through Szijjarto’s leaked conversations with Lavrov is vomit-inducing on its own, but when Lavrov reveals how the American side wants to get ‘Ukraine out of the way’ to resume business with Russia… I can’t. I feel despair. They are killing us, and you say this?
