Ossoff: “The election deniers, they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing to tell, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission. And you may have seen that one of those election deniers now asks to represent Georgia in the Senate.”

When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.

Happy weekend! Ancient clay pots with octopus decoration from Bronze Age Crete some 3,500 years ago! 🐙❤️ Heraklion Archaeological Museum 📷 by me #Archaeology

My photo collage shows four pottery vessels, all creamy yellow in colour, with black painted decoration depicting lively stylised octopuses with writhing arms. All on display at Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete.

Top L - Minoan storage jar decorated in ‘Marine Style’ with a wide-eyed octopus, argonauts, rocks, and coral. Rounded body which tapers to a narrow circular base. Short cyclindrical neck with black wavy decoration reminiscent of waves. Loop handles attached to the shoulders. Height 55 cm. From Zakros, 1500-1450 BC

Top R - The iconic Minoan ‘Marine Style’ flask. Rounded body with short cyclindrical neck out-flared at rim, and two small curved handles attached between the top of the spout and the shoulders of the flask. An almost cartoon-like octopus, with wide eyes and sucker-lined arms. Other motifs include sea urchins, seaweed and rocks. Height 27cm. From Palaikastro, 1500-1450 BC.

Bottom L - Minoan alabastron, broad at the base, swelling outwards into a fuller belly before narrowing near the top with a very short cyclindrical neck with flat rim. Decorated in “Marine Style” with a wide-eyed octopus among rocks. From Knossos Little Palace, 1450-1370 BC.

Bottom R - ‘krater’ with rounded body narrowing at the bottom towards the foot. Wide flaring mouth and rim with black painted wavy decoration, and two sturdy handles attached on each side between the top of the mouth and shoulders of the vessel. Decorated with a front facing stylised octopus with wide eyes and tentacles which loop up and down around the body of the pot, 1370-1300 BC.

Reuters story on Trump's gutting of diplomatic expertise also pulls together a story I keep harping on. Step 1: Witkoff at first reached out to the expert who worked on JPCOA, Nate Swanson, but Trump's developer buddy was too busy to actually draw on that expertise. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Swanson helped implement the Obama administration’s 2015 nuclear accord with Iran. The highly technical document, in which Iran agreed to significantly limit its nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of nuclear-related economic sanctions, was drafted by large teams of diplomats and experts. Trump withdrew from the deal in 2018. Swanson said Witkoff called in April last year to ask him to rejoin renewed talks with Tehran. At the time, Swanson was working at the State Department’s Office of Sanctions Coordination.
Weeks went by, however, without meetings on Iran, Swanson said. “He had a ton on his plate,” he said of Witkoff, who was also juggling talks over Ukraine and Gaza. “We just didn’t have any input.” Before long, Swanson said, the administration “just stopped asking for advice.”
