Midsummer celebration have pagan roots and is a serious thing in Sweden. This year we celebrate midsummer in Roslagen. From this area Swedish vikings ventured east and eventually founded Rus and Kievan Rus. Civilisations that preceded what is now Russia and Ukraine.

@urielandme.bsky.social I did some research and are following US movements to CENTCOM (air and sea) via OSINT sources. Sure looks like a massive strike op is in the making.

If you were to ask the worst case scenario, this would be close to it — ongoing U.S.-Iran talks (regardless of progress) and Israel acting on its own, targeting Iran’s military leadership along with civilian casualties only three days before U.S.-Iran negotiations.

The best bluff I make is not that I will use nukes. It is that there is some way to appease me that will take my nukes off the table, when it all does is re-enforce the value of the bluff. Can’t believe idiots still fall for it.

Hegseth abolished a very important planning office in the Pentagon, and it’s one that I have worked with in the past, the Office of Net Assessment. The ONA is a DoD internal think tank that plans up to 30 years in the future. Getting rid of this office severely weakens our future readiness!

No, russia's attack on Sumy wasn't 'a mistake.' No one accidentally uses a cluster munition warhead against a crowded city center on a major holiday. Neither was the bombing of the Kryvyi Rih playground a mistake, nor were the filmed murders of POWs. russia systematically uses terrorism as a weapon.

If I wanted to help the Chinese economy, arguably the best thing I could do was decouple the US economy from the rest of the world, put up crippling US trade barriers, destroy the US reputation for business sense and cooperation, and force US allies to do more trade with China.
