It's no secret that US-made guns often and easily cross into Mexico. These weapons, often obtained through perfectly legal means, bolster the arsenals and capacity of organizations that use them for harm. internationalpolicy.org/publications...

Chornobyl liquidators saved Europe at the cost of their own lives. Today, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy and President of Moldova Maia Sandu honored their sacrifice. Eternal memory to the heroes.

40 years ago today, the world's worst civilian nuclear disaster occurred when the No. 4 reactor at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in northern Ukraine exploded, spewing radioactivity across eastern and northern Europe. Photos from @iaeaorg.bsky.social archive.

Washington can only pay attention to a scandal or two at a time, which means in the Trump age there are all sorts of should-be-big-deal scandals that don’t get the oxygen or media focus that they should. I'll bet you've missed at least three of these: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/five-trump...

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

For an administration fixated on the idea that only great powers matter and on its image as the pre-eminent hard power, discovering the extent to which US capabilities are dependent on alliances and that it lacks the power to compel those allies must be baffling and humiliating.

The Economist is on a roll.

This is a technical story with stunning strategic implications. It is quite possible the US launched a massive war because Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff lacked the technical expertise to even understand what the Iranians were offering in negotiations. Absolute idiocy. www.ms.now/news/trump-i...
