The fatal flaw of both the EU and NATO is that they can't expel a member state. Not even if it becomes a dictatorship. Not even if it becomes an enemy.

Imagine if Ukraine had another hundred ATACMS, TAURUS, Storm Shadow or SCALP? Crimea would be untenable base for Russia...no navy, no air force, no drone launches against innocent civilians, no logistics hub to sustain Russian defenses in southern Ukraine...no Kerch Bridge.

The protesters are breaking the windows and throwing torches at the City Assembly building, trying to enter. The building is full of police forces which are dropping occasional tear gas at the protesters. 👇

#Russia has created a fake airline, which is engaged in the transportation of illegal immigrants to Europe via #Belarus
This is reported by the publication Bild. The investigation revealed that the airline called Southwind Airlines is based in Antalya and was created after the outbreak of war in Ukraine, but three airplanes and most of the company's employees are from Moscow-based Nordwind Airlines. Nordwind Airlines is owned by Pegas Touristik, and its owners are Russians with Turkish roots.
In Belarus, by the way, direct flights from Istanbul to Minsk have recently been opened.

“Jason Stanley, a Yale scholar and author of How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them, tells Rolling Stone that it’s time to take Trump both ‘literally and seriously,’ as he deploys the rhetoric of fascists. ‘He’s becoming as explicit as it’s possible to be, rhetorically,’ Stanley says. ‘This idea of purification is central to fascist ideology.’ He cautions anyone who would dismiss Trump’s new language as trolling. ‘A very common theme in the history of fascism is that lots of people think that the fascist leader is joking,’ he says. ‘I mean, it wouldn’t be fascism without that feature.’”

Ignoring sanctions evasion, coddling Orbán, not sending needed weapons, not seizing Russian assets to aid Ukraine… These are all symptoms of the West refusing to acknowledge that this is a fucking war, not a diplomatic impasse. Stop holding back, it’s win or lose.

This is a great bipartisan statement, but only symbolic.
If Trump is commander in chief again, he will have the sole authority to keep or break our promise to defend a NATO ally in need, no matter what Congress says.
If you want us to stay in NATO, elect a president who agrees.
A big win for America and our allies: the NDAA that Congress just passed will prevent a US President from unilaterally withdrawing from NATO without the advice, consent, and support of the Senate. Important show of resolve to allies and adversaries alike! kaine.senate.gov/press-relea…

I was outraged by Dominique Samuels’ revelation of being asked to be “the face of a ghost-written, negative, verging on racist piece” so I looked into it further. By me, for Private Eye.

When we read about collapse many think, easy we just go back living more from the land.
This is simply not correct, soil is massively degraded and most have no idea how much people lived from the wild, like crayfish 🦞 which was more common than we can imagine.
Every pond and every water was full of them, beside the fish and oysters 🦪. Remember also the famous feasts from the now extinct passenger pigs. The sky, water and wood was just full. Most in Europe have not the slightest idea of the lost Mega Fauna 🦬 wisents and wild cows - Aurochs.
Woods are now full of industrial wood producing trees, no more chestnuts🌰 and other wild fruits and Nuts. Our landscape degraded more we can imagine.

“For a member of the United States Senate to speculate about what white nationalism means, as if it's some benign little thought experiment, is deeply and terribly disturbing.”
