The margin that won the referendum was small. Other elements of the Brexit campaign that were exploited to form opinion were also funded or supported to some degree by malign external actors including Russia.

That graph is measuring the activity of various Yandex search crawlers, not influence ops -- those operate from many, many other networks. The only way the strikes could affect influence op traffic is if the tools are hosted by Yandex before tunneling out.

Trump openly lies that there is an "Energy Ceasefire" between Russia & Ukraine. Ukrainian officials told FT: “Just now our repair teams are restoring electricity and water supplies in Kyiv [after Russian strikes moments ago]” “Nobody has heard [of the ceasefire].”

Effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine. Both parties have agreed. Do not break it! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Another question being; why do the reports of the allegations/charges not mention that she was until recently the partner of ex-minister, editor of the spectator & arrogant piece of excreta, Michael Gove? If she’d been lovenesting with Ed Balls (any other labour ex-minister) it’d be the headline.

Lookit. Deep down every Irish person wants to spin some yank a yarn that gets cited as fact in some factual text. We told an Irish American girl that when the Muppets was released in Ireland, Kermit the Frog was called Dermot the Frog because Cromwell’s son was a Kermit.

"Netflix is better than the BBC, ace the TV license fee!" is the argument. However, if Netflix operated just one television channel and broadcast all of its licensed content without a repeat, it would last just 4.11 years.

I’m reading this. I’m not even halfway through and it’s already crazy. City made deals with the sponsors where the sponsor was only actually on the hook for a fraction of the negotiated fee. The rest was supplied by the Sheik (there are redactions but it seems pretty clear).

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
Martin Kao, CEO of defense contractor Navatek, poses next to Sen. Susan Collins for a photo. Collins is holding a model of a boat in her hands. Behind them is a large sign with the Navatek logo.
