A Danish USV manufacturer, Stormborn, has accidently provided an excellent example of how Denmark, and other European Navies, can better monitor increased Russian Naval activity and hybrid warfare operations at sea. Article-> www.hisutton.com/Stormborn-US...

For the longest time, big tech was seen as the perpetual money printer but now things have changed. The AI frenzy has drained free cash flow and driven these companies to employ interesting accounting practices.

Russian mobile fire group training goes wrong while using a YakB-12.7 rotary machine gun originally built for Mi-24 helicopters.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

I've never seen the ball-gargling cult of Musk in as much raging disbelief until China showed they too can land rockets, most likely at lower costs. 😂 Needless to say, the $28.5 trillion "TAM" that SpaceX mentioned in their IPO docs is about to get carved up. Time to redo your DCFs. #$SPCX #$TSLA

Every month 14 ships leave a quiet port on the west coast of Ireland, carrying alumina towards St Petersburg. Alumina is a fine white powder. Once smelted, it becomes aluminium, a metal essential to modern industry, including aircraft, armored vehicles, missiles and other weapons systems.

President Zelenskyy: Today I signed a decree to create a special command within the Armed Forces,a command with long-range, virtually global influence on Russia during this war This command must concentrate 100% of available resources in order to further significantly reduce Russia's war potential

Musk went on stage with a chainsaw to celebrate cutting Federal agencies and programs. He was very proud of cutting USAID. But now he’s mad at research detailing the death-toll from his DOGE cuts. His legacy won’t be rockets and innovation, it’ll be starvation and exploitation. #DOGE #USAID

This should horrify all of us! Women in ICE detention underwent invasive medical procedures without informed consent. Senator Jon Ossoff’s bipartisan investigation called the findings “nightmarish & disgraceful” Everyone deserves dignity, bodily autonomy & human rights! #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance

A Ukrainian Air Force MiG-29 has destroyed a Russian Geran-3 jet-powered attack and reconnaissance drone. The Geran-3 is a faster, jet-powered version of the Shahed drone that Russia uses to strike Ukrainian cities. The interception removes another threat from Ukraine's skies. 📹ZSU Dvizh

A few weeks after this lame pump, Tesla settled out of court with the family of a pedestrian killed by a Model Y on FSD that couldn't see her because of the sun's glare. #$TSLA

Ken Paxton just denied our public information request for the Hoffman Files. Adam Hoffman — an admitted child molester — should be in prison, but Ken Paxton let him off the hook. Texans deserve to know why. We don’t need any more pedophile protectors in our government.

NEW: Trump’s decision to push out the last remaining members of the federal Election Assistance Commission — two Democrats and a Republican — allows him to try to nominate members who may be more amenable to his demands. by @jenafifield.bsky.social

Early last year, Gov. Ron DeSantis began signing death warrants at a faster rate than ever before. What followed was the most intense period of executions the state has carried out in more than eight decades. with @nytimes.com

Trump: "We had 11 missiles shot by the Islamic Republic of Japan"

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

hate to praise Massie, but this is funny

Højst underraskende

So i expect Russia will be desperately trying to escalate pain as will Ukraine since both are out of air defense. So it will be a massive escalation to try to reach the “uncle” pain threshhold first. Give Ukraine air defense now

As horrific as Trump is, it's truly appalling to see how many Republicans and billionaires are assisting his criminal racket.

Once again, I am just a small-town international relations professor, standing here, begging our media & our Congress to take our most important signed, ratified international treaty seriously & threats by the One Special Boy to violate it as the presidency-ending scandal that it should have been.

🎯 @mikenellis.bsky.social : “If @scottjenningsky & Thune can have calls with McConnell, he should be able to shoot a proof of life video… they know the special election deadline is 8/3.” If they’re Weekend At Bernie’s-ing Mitch to 🦆 an election that should be a crime. (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )

Haven't discussed this previously, but they also gamed the SpaceX IPO timing so the 15 trading day early index inclusion aligned completely with the 25 calendar day research blackout window. So insane pumping can begin at the same moment the effective float shrinks. @montanaskeptic.bsky.social

TBH, I'm surprised all the laughable analyst pumping does not appear to be helping the #$SPCX price all that much. That said, even the current price is a sick joke, and the coming unlocks are going to create tremendous downward price pressure, damaging Nasdaq 100 investors.

Imagine all the hard work it requires to become a senior stock analyst at a major institution on Wall Street — and then having to utterly debase yourself like this: www.ft.com/content/ea0a...

hey I'm sorry (not sorry) that our 57 unregulated data center turbines are funneling toxic pollutants into minority Memphis neighborhoods that already see disproportionately high rates of pollution-driven childhood illnesses, will 50% off your internet bill make things better?

In the last few days, Putin gave one of the weirdest interviews in a long time. He sat there staring past the man in front of him, clearly reading from a screen, rattling through battlefield positions that almost nobody in Russia could point to on a map. And the whole thing felt strange.

By the numbers, Clarence Thomas has been treated to: • At least 38 destination vacations; • 26 private jet flights; • 12 VIP passes to pro & college sporting events; • 2 stays at luxury resorts; • 1 standing invite to an uber-exclusive golf club (Published 2023)

Donald Trump is once again openly bragging about his own corruption.

"While Tesla is a real car company that is hilariously overvalued, SpaceX is in another league altogether. The SpaceX IPO prospectus, with its description of the company’s business prospects, could win a Hugo Award. Its Starship story is a fantasy. Its AI story is a farce."

UEFA statement on Balogun case. "An unprecedented, incomprehensible and unjustifiable decision".

In a post going up tomorrow morning, I'll detail exactly how, with Tesla, Musk pilfered billions from mom & pop investors to massively enrich himself & his cronies, and how he's doing it again with SpaceX. As a reminder, my Substack is free (and worth every penny). montanaskeptic.substack.com

In Moscow, Russian police suddenly jumped out of a prisoner transport van and beat a streamer who had simply waved at the passing vehicle.

Republicans may be running out the clock on disclosing whether McConnell is even alive, purely so a filing deadline slides past and Thomas Massie can't grab the seat. A man's actual mortality reduced to a procedural loophole for gatekeeping power.
