There are a lot of Trump officials who need to be impeached, but Russell Vought -- the quarterback of all the Project 2025 fuckery and a central player in the administration's overreach -- really needs to be at the top of the list.

One of my biggest concerns in 2023-24 was the likelihood that, if Trump got power again, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and related figures such as Palmer Luckey would get more deeply burrowed into the U.S. national security apparatus, in all sorts of dangerous ways that will be hard to dislodge. Alas.

More from my interview with Zelenskyy and on the intel intercepted by Kyiv about Russia's winter attack plans. Attacks concentrated on Kyiv, Kharkiv, Odesa, Lviv to isolate them, sow chaos, spark a new flood of refugees. Also: Russia wants to sever Ukraine's nuclear facilities from the energy grid.

@christopherjm.ft.com: ‘More from my FT interview with President Zelenskyy and on the intelligence intercepted by Kyiv about Russia's winter attack plans. It's deeply disturbing.’ 1/

Specifically, the president said, Russia was gearing up to intensify attacks on Ukraine's largest cities with the aim of isolating them from the rest of the country as winter sets in.
Kyiv, the eastern stronghold of Kharkiv and the southern port city of Odesa are the main targets, according to Zelenskyy and a Ukrainian intelligence assessment described to the FT by Ukrainian and European officials.
The western city of Lviv, a crucial logistics hub near the Polish border, also features in Russia's plan, according to Ukrainian and European security officials familiar with the intelligence.
Ukrainian officials said Moscow intended to strike nuclear facilities to sever them from the energy grid, increasing pressure on Kyiv to cave in to Russia's demands in early 2027.
A new refugee flow towards the EU was also part of Moscow's strategy, officials said, adding to concerns that a large influx of Ukrainians would strain countries where anti-immigrant sentiment is on the rise. Tensions with neighbouring Poland have increased this year, leading to more attacks on Ukrainians.

Why is the European discussion about a possible Russian attack so “oh no, what if” and so little “if you attack we’ll hit you back hard, you know we can.” Russia has its hands full in Ukraine. They should be, and almost certainly are, afraid of the war expanding. Fret less. Prep and deter more.

There's a disturbingly high chance the Iranians hit one of the Marine amphibious ships and cause major casualties if we intend on trying to take one of the Iranian islands. Trump remains obsessed with Kharg but that may as well be on the Moon as far as the Marines are concerned.
