I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

From my perspective, I would have a plan that if an article 5 trigger happened with the Russians attacking a NATO country. I wouldn’t necessarily attack Russia. I would attack every command and control post that the Russian have in occupied Ukraine m.youtube.com/watch?v=jGmo...

We just dropped our newest ad — and this one’s special. It features my PawPaw — a Baptist preacher who taught me to follow the two great commandments: love God & love neighbor. Those teachings led me to public service and they’re why I’m running for the U.S. Senate.

The level of disrespect this regime shows to their fellow Americans reaches a level that’s completely incompatible with democracy. These people literally believe they have the right to kill people who disagree with them. It’s disgusting.

Thoughts on Capitulation Day. This level of defeat in Iran is only possible at the hands of a super loser like Trump. To win a war means changing the politics of the enemy such that they must surrender. That is what Iran just did to the United States. Read more: snyder.substack.com/p/capitulati...

This shows just how the US has declined. Xi told Trump to back away from Taiwan and what is Trump’s first comment after the summit? This, he might not support an already agreed arms sale to Taiwan. He is dancing to Xi’s tune.

Russia’s Rosneft reports a 70 % drop in net income for the first 9 months of 2025, down to 277 billion roubles (~$3.57 billion). The company cited high interest rates, lower oil prices, a stronger rouble, and rising “anti‑terror security” costs as major pressures. Real reason: Ukrainian sanctions.
