"Captain, can I just have a hug?" Is the most disarming thing I've ever been asked.

@McCainJack Big Army gave me a nice multi tool, does that count?

[mediocre militaryman @mediocrearmyman]

@JeffFisch Hahaha! I too, have noticed this. It truly does seem like the majority of pontifications about war are from those who know it only from Hollywood

@price_dominie @McCainJack What a brilliant idea.

It’s hard to describe how fucked up this is.

Kevin Warsh is in the Epstein files, but not nearly as much as Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel, who met with Epstein’s Kremlin handlers multiple times leading to the 2016 election.

Not even hiding it.

They are grabbing and bursting testicles.

That’s sexual assault.

We already know women detainees have been raped, assaulted and in some cases sterilized.

This is sick stuff. They want to inflict maximum pain.

They’re abusers drunk on power.

Not punishing the confederacy brought us to this point

The Ukrainians are living like in the movie "Groundhog Day." Nobody wants to live like that, but the Ukrainians are doing it. Last year, I ended my speech here in Davos with the words: "Europe must know how to defend itself. A year has passed, and nothing has changed." - Zelensky in Davos.

Further statements by the Ukrainian leader:

➡️ Trump carried out an operation in Venezuela, and Maduro was arrested. There were differing opinions, but Maduro is on trial—excuse me—but Putin is not. And this after four years of a major war in Europe.

➡️ Everyone has been paying attention to Greenland, and that's understandable: Most leaders simply don't know what to do with it. And it seems everyone is waiting for America to exhaust this issue.

➡️ The tribunal that is supposed to deal with Russian war crimes doesn't even have its own building.

➡️ Who will respond if Putin attacks Lithuania or Poland?

➡️ Europe is relying solely on the belief that NATO will function in the event of a threat. But no one has actually seen the alliance in action.

➡️ You sent 40 soldiers to Greenland. Why? What message are you trying to send? What message are you trying to send to Russia?

➡️ Europe will not be taken seriously. They will not defend anything. We can help if Russian ships sail near Greenland. We can act; we know how to fight there.

➡️ Missiles are never just decorations. They are stationed in Belarus; they reach the EU, and Europe is doing nothing about it.

Hey my European friends and allies. You can choose to boycott American products. Canadians have and it has decimated the US bourbon industry.

The best part of this entire thing is that a consumer driven boycott is capitalism at its finest. A tariff isn't.

Go get 'em 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇪🇺

There's a real risk that you just articulated the attitude of the people running our government.

@texasgermanbre Glorious thread

[The Atlantic @TheAtlantic]

Bari Weiss has “a curiously narrow definition of free speech”—one in which free speech means whatever conservatives want to say, Adam Serwer argues.

Important to read

[Michael Weiss @michaeldweiss]

Suggest European friends and allies read not only the National Security Strategy but also the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2026, which was published last night. It's very long, so skip to this section: https://t.co/ok0I6EPyDK

@RpsAgainstTrump Let us be real, his supporters won't care. And his supporters think the FED is bad and should be cancelled anyway

@secretsqrl123 I will neve understand how so many people think the old era AKs are good by modern standards. It HAD a good day in history, but those good days are long gone.

@stevesi28838948 I will forever maintain that there were two seperate Bush Jr Presidencies. His second term showed he had learned lessons from the first. He ditched the advice of the old boys crowd and brought in Condoleeza Rice and 'Transformational Diplomacy'. The man had skill
