Senior figures from Donald Trump's political network are now working for the Russians in the Balkans, spotted at election events for Milorad Dodik's pro-Russian nationalist party in Bosnia's Republika Srpska.

Among those identified or reportedly present:

• **James Blair:** Former Trump White House deputy chief of staff and senior campaign strategist.

• **Chris LaCivita:** Co-manager of Trump's 2024 presidential campaign.

• **Alex Garcia:** Former Trump campaign official and partner at Continental Strategy.

• **Andrew H. Smith:** Attorney at the law firm representing Republika Srpska.

• **Caroline Wren:** Trump political fundraiser, reportedly at the victory celebration.

• **Barry Bennett:** Former Trump adviser and Republican political consultant, reportedly at the celebration.

Dodik is one of Vladimir Putin's closest political allies in Europe, maintaining close ties with Moscow.

According to an investigation by Bosnian outlet Detektor, Republika Srpska has spent millions of dollars on American lobbying firms connected to Trump's political network.

They’re barring a Jewish party leader from entering Israel because he criticized a secular political ideology which is supposed to be built on the idea that all Jews anywhere in the world have a right to return to Israel.

Beyond. Parody.

I once headed Russia’s largest oil company. Ukrainian refinery strikes are creating gasoline shortages and pressure on the Kremlin. Read on to understand how—and follow for more 🧵 [1/10]

[Ukrainian Air Force @KpsZSU]

Today, October 1, 2026, another Ukrainian defender fell in combat.

Flying a MiG-29 fighter jet, he carried out missile and bomb strikes against Russian occupiers along one of the front-line directions.

During the mission, his aircraft was hit by an enemy missile. The pilot ejected, but tragically did not survive.

Captain Marat Redvanovych Mambetov was a flight commander in the 40th Tactical Aviation Brigade "Ghost of Kyiv."

We extend our deepest condolences to Marat's family and loved ones. He defended Ukraine until his very last breath.

Manchester City owners’ damaging strategy of appeal, deny and delay will inflict untold damage on countless people. It will inflict damage on this season’s Premier League which is effectively on hold with an unpunished City still involved. It inflicts further damage on the reputation of the world’s most popular sports league. It casts a cloud over the league for seasons to come, for as long as they drag the sport through the courts which they could do.

City owners’ refusal to accept responsibility in the face of overwhelming evidence against them further hardens anger towards the club. The strategy inflicts further damage on a 146-year-old club whose reputation was made by the honest endeavour and thrilling football of that outstanding team of the late 60s and 70s. The actions of City’s current owners risk trashing a historic club’s reputation.

Appeal, deny, delay inflicts further turmoil on the lives of their supporters. City fans’ innate defiance may waver when getting called cheat relentlessly. City fans didn’t cheat. Their club owners did with “sham contracts”, according to the findings of a long, forensic review by an independent commission. But it is City fans facing the consequences of their owners’ book-cookery – in the stands, on the streets, at work. A storm of scorn.

Do City owners also not think of their head coach, Enzo Maresca, and how every press conference will be an inquisition? Every player interview? Every arrival at an away stadium?

Do they not think of all the vital work done by City in the Community, the club’s charitable wing currently trying to celebrate 40 years of helping disadvantaged local people, and how their conduct impacts that?

Appeal, deny, delay damages Abu Dhabi’s own reputation. Do they actually care about football? About pressure on innocent, hard-working staff? About integrity? City’s owners have done plenty of good in East Manchester but that work now seems tainted.

Do they not care about the millions of people in this country who love football. Some may now, because of sham contracts and appeal, deny, delay, simply turn away from the national sport?

Do the owners worry about the UAE’s image? The behaviour of City’s owners is now a diplomatic issue between the UK and the UAE. And good luck to our new ambassador to the UAE, Geraldine McCafferty, who took up the position last month and will need all her diplomatic skills acquired in Sarajevo, Bogota and Beijing.

If they had a shred of responsibility, City owners would call off the lawyers, accept the independent commission’s findings, take the punishment and seek some settlement with the Premier League over compensation to other clubs. Appeal, deny, delay helps nobody.

How has no one sponsored him? £250 for the season and any time he scores you’re getting 100s of thousands of views 🤣
