China has moved, not with press releases, but with precision: dumping U.S. assets, stockpiling gold, tightening financial controls, and strengthening its critical mineral alliances. What’s Trump doing? Reenacting Brexit cosplay with Keir Starmer and selling the illusion of a “breakthrough” U.S.-UK trade deal that, in reality, fixes nothing and fools no one, least of all Europe, where headlines read more like punchlines. - Mary Geddry

"New Jersey’s interim U.S. attorney, Trump loyalist Alina Habba, posted on social media that Baraka had 'ignored multiple warnings from Homeland Security Investigations to remove himself from the ICE detention center…. He has willingly chosen to disregard the law.' But, as Tracey Tully, Luis Ferré-Sadurní, and Alyce McFadden of the New York Times reported, videos show him being arrested in a public area outside the facility."

NASA satellites captured the fires burning at the base. Russia has already lost 5 of its 42 Tu-22M bombers since the war began—some to crashes, some to Ukrainian strikes. Now Ukraine is systematically raising the cost of these bombing campaigns.
When defense isn't enough, offense becomes survival. ❌

Most everyone I follow on here probably takes this approach to things more or less, but it's worth being explicit about it. Avoid silly factionalism over tech (i.e. X is not a *real* programming language), lift people up, and make sure when you're being critical it's actually necessary, specific, and targeted at things, not people.
