It’s important to never forget Russia has a GDP smaller than Italy. Just Germany and the UK together have a population as big as Russia. Add the rest of Europe? We dwarf it. Putin’s entire strategy has always been to divide & peel off bits of Europe… but a Europe that sticks together? No chance.

1. There is no such thing as a "false rumor." The word for that is a HOAX. 2. The headline misses the entire point of the hoax, which is not that he was in Ohio, but that he was in a mental health facility! are there any adults left at the new york times

Republicans Promoted a False Rumor
That James Talarico Was in Ohio
The Democratic nominee for Senate in Texas spent nine days off the
trail with what he and his campaign said was a bad case of the flu. His
opponents fueled rumors, including one that spread widely before it
was debunked.
By Bayliss Wagner
Oct. 12, 2026
After James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Texas,
spent more than a week with no campaign appearances because of
what he and his aides described as a bad case of the flu, a false rumor
circulated by conservatives exploded online.
By Sunday, a post on X claiming that Mr. Talarico had been at a mental
health facility in Ohio a story promoted by Republican allies of Mr.
Talarico's opponent, Ken Paxton - had been viewed millions of times.
Then the Ohio facility took the remarkable step of publicly announcing
on Sunday night that Mr. Talarico had in fact never been treated there.
"I've never even been to Ohio," Mr. Talarico, who returned to the
campaign trail on Friday, wrote in a post sharing the center's
statement. He called the theory "the craziest thing I've ever heard" in
an interview with MS NOW.
The New York Times reviewed time-stamped images from a security
camera at Mr. Talarico's home, which were provided by his campaign on
the condition they not be published for security reasons. The images
showed Mr. Talarico around the exterior of the home and at its
entrances between Oct. 1 and Oct. 8.
