In my opinion, yesterday a turning point in the war took place.

Perhaps we still do not fully grasp the significance of what happened.

For the first time, Putin publicly showed his weakness and inability to independently protect his capital, his parade, and himself from our strikes. Because of this, a frightened Putin was forced to publicly humiliate himself and ask Trump, as a mediator, to help stop a strike on Moscow.

De facto, Putin asked Trump to protect him from the Ukrainians.

I consider President Zelenskyy’s order a brilliant informational slap in the face and an additional public humiliation.

It is obvious that before and during the parade, Putin was physically afraid - he felt vulnerable and threatened.

Putin publicly appeared weak and humiliated, and in Russia’s "prison-style" political culture, such things are not forgiven.

A weak "tsar," mocked by everyone, cannot remain a tsar in Russia.

These are very, very hard times for Ukraine. However, Ukraine is strong, resilient, and continues the fight.

Slava Ukraini!

@Meta whilst browsing recently, I received a message saying my account was being suspended. Nothing was out of the ordinary, no change to normal habits - just seems a bit odd. Any chance could would reinstate it for me please?!

@British_Airways @HeathrowAirport Hi Steven, thanks for getting back to me earlier. The T&Cs on your website say “we will consider reimbursing reasonable expenses” for hotels, food etc. At what point do you consider a hotel cost ‘unreasonable’? The Burj Al Arab has a great suite available for AED 16,588!

@British_Airways - @HeathrowAirport is shut all day today, but you’re asking people to check in still. Is this not ‘flight cancelled’ territory? Keen not to spend all day in the airport to be told later what we already know.

[Henry Edwards @HenryEdwards101]

@British_Airways @HeathrowAirport Thank you. This would have been really useful to know at 0630 this morning when we left to come to the airport. I’d be grateful if you’d make a bold call and cancel the flight, so we can make alternative arrangements.

This is the best summary of the current geopolitical situation I have seen. Sir Alex Younger was head of MI6 between 2014 and 2020. Really worth watching.

Look at Norway if you want a good example of how it could work. Stop clutching your pearls and think it through. There are plenty of good examples where smart national service is a net benefit

The private school policy brings out the worst in Labour supporters. The undisguised glee at being able to make life harder not for the super rich (school fees are pocket change to them) but for the middle class. The ones who have typically done better than them through hard work and talent, rather than being born into privilege. It’s a real mask off moment.

[Deborah Haynes @haynesdeborah]

This is poor. @RishiSunak has been trying to talk tough on defence but cost-cutting on his & others watch meant the @RoyalAirForce had to retire its fleet of reliable, capable & parachute-jump-ready C-130 aircraft way too early. Now look what’s happened

$NKLA is on the verge of being a monopoly in the ZEV semi truck market. As well as the company with the most publicly available hydrogen stations. This is going to be insane.

[Keith Malone @ANativeAngeleno]

“Geologic hydrogen has massive potential,” said Mengli Zhang, a geophysicist at the Colorado School of Mines. “The geologic hydrogen gold rush is coming.”

Good story. Worth a read.

Ukrainian expert on drone warfare Serhii Flesh:

“Within a year, both sides will produce enough FPV drones to target every soldier - all will be found & hit day & night in a zone of up to 8 km

Infantry will retreat underground & surface activity will belong to ground robots”
