How is the Army applying lessons from Ukraine and adapting for the future fight? Gen. Donahue talks about what’s changing on the ground in Europe. Listen here: open.spotify.com/epi...

Trump spoke of “shylocks,” which is one of the most recognizable antisemitic terms in modern English. Watch who tries to explain this away.

The administration has argued that the destruction of Iran's uranium metal production lines at Isfahan will set its nuclear-weapon program back by "years." At Arms Control Wonk, I argue it may not even set Tehran back by months. www.armscontrolwonk.com/archive/1220...

“They’re just asking questions…” One of the sneakiest tactics in fake news? Questions. Ellipses. Uncertainty. 🧵Here’s how disinformation suggests a lie—without ever stating it outright. #FakeNews #MediaLiteracy

Israeli general Amos Yadlin, who as a pilot was instrumental in terminating the Iraqi nuclear program, with a sane and sober analysis of why Israel felt it had to act - and what needs to follow for Gaza and the region www.nytimes.com/2025/06/21/o...

In addition, the Iranians (Russians, Chinese) have known about bunker busters for years. It would be pure negligence if they had not prepared for it. Especially after the Israelis dug their way down to Nasrallah in his bunker under Beirut.

Aw Harald of Norway, 88, marking Norwegian sovereignty on the Bear Island 🥹 This what actual kings do: they chill all their lives in purely representative functions but inconvenience themselves to faraway windy islands with crutches at the age of 88 when it’s needed #nokings

Have you ever heard of someone digging a very deep hole using explosives alone? Probably not — because it doesn’t work. Once a hole reaches a certain depth, simply using more explosives won’t make it deeper. 1/

”The high volume of maritime traffic makes it challenging to identify every instance of abnormal maritime activity.” You are a state? I follow hobbyists that could code in weeks software to find large chunks of it if they just got hands on the expensive data. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Forsvarsakademiet skriver om Kina. Jeg synes det er lidt tyndt. Jeg savner en diskussion af hvad det egenligt er Kina er ude efter - specielt omkring Europa og Grønland. Vi får de traditionelle historier om nye sejlruter og samarbejde med Rusland. 1/ www.fak.dk/da/forskning...

We must remember: bombing residential buildings with sleeping children is not about military might or strength — it’s about hatred and the impotence to win. But destroying Russia’s arsenals, aviation, and oil refineries — that’s about the will to win and put an end to the Russian imperialism.

Walking the Normandy beaches remains one of the most affecting things I've ever done - and I could do it in freedom because of them.

Was this the plan all along? Maneuver Trump into picking Vance as his VP. Pour money into the Trump-Vance ticket. Then, trigger impeachment proceedings against Trump. Vance steps in — and ushers in a slick brand of techno-fascism.

That would be awful. Don’t share this.

Join me in a prayer for clear and cloud free skies over the affected Russian air bases tomorrow.

Dear Russians, this is not a terrorist attack. This is war. Ukraine targeted your strategic bombers, not your homes. Your own armed forces are, on the other hand, constantly terrorising Ukrainian civilians.

The launching systems. Images via the SBU. Apart from the strategic brilliance, you really have to commend Ukraine’s comms team!

If Liz Truss were more stable and shrewd, she could make a fortune from a public affairs protection racket. "Nice campaign you've got there, would be a real shame if Britain's most disastrous PM endorsed it".

Thank goodness Joe Biden is no longer in office and America has a truly coherent president again.

Ehud Barak is absolutely correct in his assessment. on.ft.com/3ZncVkj

The European Union must respond intelligently to Trump tariffs. Imposing 50% tariffs on all US imports would be economically reckless. Doing nothing is a valid short-term option, especially considering that these tariffs are likely to generate significant challenges within the US itself. 1/

⚡ All CAESAR wheeled self-propelled howitzers produced in 2025 will be delivered to support Ukraine’s Defense Forces, says French President Macron.

Latvian Public Media: 💬 "Right now, Russia is the only obstacle to the end of the war and to peace. There is a need to increase economic pressure on Russia, and our priority is crystal clear: the EU must achieve full energy independence from Russia," said @baibabraze.bsky.social

The Nordics presenting an interesting case study on how the Trump administration prefers bi-lateral engagement, which can divide Europe: ❌ 🇩🇰 ”we need Greenland” ✅ 🇳🇴 ”relations couldn’t be better” ✅ 🇫🇮 ice breaker deal ”a step forward” ⚠️ 🇸🇪 largest Nordic power absent; ”concerns over free speech”

“Without committed enforcement and hefty penalties for potential breaches implemented across all member states, it’s questionable the EU’s latest [energy] rules would stick.” @asabadus.bsky.social

Margot Friedländer ist gestorben. Ihr und vielen anderen Holocaust-Überlebenden bin ich in den letzten Jahrzehnten begegnet. Lange dachte ich, ihre Zeugnisse würden die Zeit überdauern - gegen einen neuen Faschismus. Sicher bin ich mir heute nicht mehr. Auch deshalb macht mich ihr Tod so traurig.

WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree? TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know. WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution? TRUMP: I don't know

Math 2025 Q1: A girl was supposed to receive 30 dolls. But due to the Trump tariffs, 27 dolls were taken away. How many dolls does the girl have left? Q2: Another girl was expecting 1 doll, but the Trump tariff man took everything except the arm of the doll. How many dolls does this girl get?

I love the internet

Best sign from yesterday.

Why Fighting Disinformation Requires Strengthening Society, Not Just Policing Content You can't fact-check your way out of a trust crisis. The real defense against disinformation isn't censorship — it's civic strength.

Russia demands ‘no NATO’ for Ukraine. Not because they fear an anti-Russian NATO offensive from Ukrainian territory –but because they fear NATO will defend Ukraine against Russia’s next aggression. ‘No-NATO’ for Ukraine makes it easier for Russia to plan its next aggression.

The President said of the U.S. economy: "We are a department store, and we set the price. I meet with the companies, and then I set a fair price, what I consider to be a fair price, and they can pay it, or they don't have to pay it." And then... I lost it.

The Pope has died. May he rest in peace. Now that the Russians have lost their pope, the question is—what’s their next move in finding a successor?

Hi guys, my name is Trevor Reed. I am a USMC veteran that was wrongfully detained in Russia for nearly 3 years. After I was released in a prisoner exchange I trained for 6 months then joined a special forces team in the Ukrainian Main Directorate of Intelligence where we fought the Russians. #nafo

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?
