No one can kid themselves now: Trump’s America is our enemy
A moment of horrifying clarity

One of the things that boiled my piss was Vance saying that Zelenskiy conducts propaganda tours for visiting dignitaries 
. No Vance, the tours of Bucha are reality tours.
How can Zelenskiy stay fully in control of his emotions after insults like that.

Putin put in an appearance in a dream I had last night. He made a veiled threat, which was quite surprising really.
A veil? probably less seductive than it sounds 🫤

It wasn't necessarily what you would expect while being one of a team voluntarily clearing out a church hall in London.
What, Putin was in the volunteer team, or you were

Adam Boulten (the veteran political journalist) referred to Vance as 'a piece of sh*t'. I've never heard him use language like that in all the decades he's been reporting.One of the things that boiled my piss was Vance saying that Zelenskiy conducts propaganda tours for visiting dignitaries

We both were. I had cleared a room out, and Putin came in, pointed out something wrong, and made a veiled threat that I needed to do better. I can't recall what the threat was though. That's it. A bit weird, but not much detail.What, Putin was in the volunteer team, or you were

I think considering what happened yesterday, whats at stake and in an effort to maintain a meaningful working relationship, Zelenskyy should thank Trump and Vance further by inviting them on a full state visit to Ukraine.

You could sense his blood boiling and he did well to keep composed, despite multiple attempts to wind him up to the point of walking out. I’d have told Trump and Vance to “do one” but I don’t have the weight of Europe on my shoulders.One of the things that boiled my piss was Vance saying that Zelenskiy conducts propaganda tours for visiting dignitaries

I hope the room you were in was lower floor and without a balcony.
With a tour of the front lines, plus the torture basements in Bucha and Kherson.
But... they'd say it's all propaganda and fake news.

100%…and get your granny on the case as well! Fully expect at least the weasel VP to decline as he’s watched a video.
From our favourite political scientist and game theorist. I'm not going to try and summarise for you, but the video has links to each question he addresses, so you can jump to what interests you the most. Just to say, he does reference previous video discussions and Game Theory concepts to explain his reasoning, but doesn't explain the mathematical modelling behind them - those are in his more general videos, which are still all eminently watchable.
