Poland intercepts Russian plane over the Baltic Sea. This is what appeasement looks like. US softness toward Russia is emboldening Putin, convincing him he can threaten neighbors and face no consequences.

FREESIA 1 (IMO 9159660) is transmitting near Venezuela. Windward’s Remote Sensing Intelligence confirms the vessel was physically scrapped in Bangladesh in 2021. This is what zombie vessels look like in practice. go.wnwd.com/how-zombie-v...

Update: 💥Flagless💥 BLUE (IMO 9236353) decided to avoid the English Channel to reduce interception risk, after all, and instead takes the "scenic" detour around the British Isles en route to Singapore. (25.12.25 9:20 CET)

EU & G7 PREPARE TO BAN ALL TANKERS FROM MOVING RUSSIAN REFINED PRODUCT The West is about to stop Russia using Maritime Services - ship insurance and certification specifically. That will mean all western tankers allowed to carry refined oil products (diesel, petrol, kerosene etc) will be banned

Imagine interviewing a victim of torture and independently confirming the details of his torture and then being told you can’t broadcast it because the people who ordered the torture wouldn’t give their side of the story.

Both #Forsvaret #RDN #DK #Denmark and #CoastGuard #Kustenwache #DE #Germany present. Wonder if this flight will pass as well ?

EU er solidarisk med Danmark og Grønland, bedyrer António Costa på en platform, hvis ejer var bonkammerat med Trump og facilitator for vedvarende påvirkningskampagner mod begge lande.

Among the newly-released Epstein files. This Justice Dept email from Jan 2020 'I wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported"

Bill Clinton releasing a statement saying 'release the Epstein files, you cowards' was not on my bingo list.

Bringing back Limewire to illegally rip copies of reporting suppressed by the government is definitely some cyberpunk shit

I just wrote an article about this and decided not to publish it yet. It is in the DOJ files (file got renamed after originally published and taken down. It’s online now). But too many unknowns about whether the letter itself is real or not. Some additional info though:

My latest on the 🇺🇸 NSS: The US adopts a spheres-of-influence approach to the global order. Europe must urgently invest in innovation, military capabilities and readiness, energy security, and societal resilience to fend off an aggressive Russia by ourselves. www.atlanticcouncil.org/dispatches/u...

There's also now a cleaner version that wasn't filmed off a TV:

Ein kanadischer Fernseh-Sender hat - offenbar ausversehen - für wenige Stunden den 60 Minutes Beitrag gestreamt, dessen Ausstrahlung auf CBS nicht möglich war. In dem Beitrag berichten zwei von den USA abgeschobene Männer von Schlägen, Schlafentzug, Isolationshaft und verschmutzten Wasser.

UNBELIEVABLE! An entire US carrier battle group with as many as three E2 Hawkeye AWACS and a carrier full of fighters and other aircraft, AEGIS equipped DDG’s and the entire satellite resources of the US couldn’t find a massive slow moving oil tanker leaving Venezuela as it slipped into the

Vi har inviteret Lars Løkke Rasmussen (M) til en samtale om Danmark i den nye verden. Og hvad man gør, når den største trussel mod vores værdier er USA, som vi også er totalt afhængige af – og ikke er klar til at bryde med og gøre os fri af.

Democracy dies in darkness. Journalism dies in 60 minutes.

Putin authorized a Mexican company to buy a 99.9% stake in a Russian subsidiary of Germany's Ruhrpumpen

Trump says he’s appointing Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry as “special envoy” to Greenland. Landry has previously expressed support for Trump’s plan to invade Greenland.

I’m old enough to remember when we had a free press. CBS yanks 60 Minutes segment on CECOT prison Trump sends deportees to: www.thedailybeast.com/60-minutes-s...

Fuck these people and the horse they rode in on.

guys bari lost glem

Here’s a gift link to this stunner Washpost story, quoting the 60 Minutes correspondent on the CECOT story, who accuses Bari Weiss of spiking the piece all because the Trump Administration wouldn’t comment. “Government silence is a statement, not a VETO.” wapo.st/3YL4T3D

Okay first this is extremely funny and just as predictable. Notable, can you Imagine what you’d have to get in a segment on CECOT to think wow, Trump comes out of this torture gulag thing looking pretty good! lol. Predictable, stupid, absurd.

No one is going to tune in to CBS because they know it won’t be critical of Trump but lots of people will tune out for that reason. Spiking the CECOT story to curry favor is a terrible moral and journalistic decision — but it’s also a terrible business decision.

Hours before 60 Minutes was set to air a story on deportees who were sent by the Trump administration to prison in El Salvador, describing “brutal and torturous conditions,” 60 Minutes announced that it has pulled the segment and will air it in the future.

CBS is cooked. It's been a few decades coming but we are witnessing the death of American journalism. Nothing good follows in the aftermath of that.

NEW: The BELLA 1 oil tanker has REFUSED to be boarded by the U.S. Coast Guard, who is now in “active pursuit” of the vessel in the Caribbean Sea. More: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/u...

Russia could attack Estonia through rapid invasion to capture Narva or a hybrid Crimea-style annexation with disinformation and special forces, European Council on Foreign Relations reports. Both scenarios would end in strategic disaster for Moscow. ecfr.eu/publication/...

An unknown 160m long vessels was present at south mouth of Danish straits Dec 18. Area has seen ample NATO patrols last days. There is a realistic possibility the un-identified ship is recent reinforcement and capability increase destroyer Severomorsk of Russian Northern Fleet.

Increased patrol activity in the Bay of Mecklenburg since the 19th. On the 18th a 160ish meter AIS shy vessel was hanging out in this area, according to Sentinel 1. Udaloy?

🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files. Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out. See for yourself.

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release. AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
