@PolymarketIntel Perfect example of the upside-down world of Russian logic:
> have an incredibly lucrative economic partnership with Europe
> start an idiotic war to get more land (Russia lacks land apparently)
> lose partnership
> give speeches about how war is bad and being partners is good
Kremlin attacking Trump? via Surkov ascribing "the principles of sovereign democracy as I formulated them in the early 2000s, and which have become the conceptual basis of Putinism." https://t.co/WOXLqiFkl0
A survey by the Academy of Animated Art revealed:
• 55% of artists fear AI will destroy their income
• 73% want permission before AI uses their work
• 89% say current copyright laws are inadequate
The future of art hangs in the balance:
Kremlin’s « Consiglieri » Kirill Dmitriev said the Russian side is well aware that the US in fact « wants Ukraine to be stronger…in a stronger position ». His remark appears quite counterintuitive, but in line with Russian attrition tactics. https://t.co/WOQCiQHCkX

Whatever the Russians did to Witkoff, they now own him for life.
The crown jewel of Russian disinformation narratives, namely "Ukraine isnt a real country" is now being pushed by Trump's inner circle.
Reminder, Ukraine is much older than Russia.
The argument from Carlson (and much of MAGA) that Russia is not interested in invading Europe because it is “dying economically” reflects a bizarre but widespread MAGA idea of Europe. Though Europe’s economy is 12 times bigger than Russia’s, much of MAGA imagines Europe as an apocalyptic wasteland whose capitals have turned into decaying ruins inhabited mostly by migrant criminals. (The same worldview also imagines Russia as a Christian traditional-values utopia.)
“The Pasch - or ‘passage’ - of the Lord motivates us to move forward, to leave behind our sense of defeat, to roll away the stone of the tombs in which we often imprison our hope, and to look with confidence to the future, for Christ is risen.”

Eight years ago Russian opositioner Boris Nemtsov was killed in Moscow, not far from the Kremlin.
This is his speech from 9 years ago.
If Nemtsov has been alive, history might have taken a different course.
Why are we worried about razing 🇺🇦 cities to the ground? 🇷🇺 MP Andrei Gurulyov asked on state TV last night
"If Kyiv needs to lie in ruins for our flag to fly above it, then so be it!"
(The people of Mariupol, Bakhmut, Severodonetsk etc might have something to say about that)
Duly needed argument to expose old Russian tradition, of spinning narrative of economic resilience using fake indicators on DW Business Special https://t.co/pEG0qIIv0V via @YouTube
