- To anyone with a smidgeon of interest in global geopolitics, the USA today will look like a vastly greater and more immediate threat than China. This is Dump's own doing. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...
- I'm shocked and surprised to hear that the USA needs to "obliterate' Iran's nuclear weapons programme. For the second time in a year! www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

- Nice piece by John Burn Murdoch tying the rise of the far right and geo-political conflict to structural limits of capital. We're in an era of zero (to negative) sum games. I don't believe Mark "Thucydides" Carney discussed that. www.ft.com/content/b4d2...

- Reposted by Jonathan DaviesGOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a nasally delivered, antibiotic-inactivated Bordetella pertussis (AIBP) vaccine that NOT ONLY prevents SEVERE disease BUT also CURBS bacterial TRANSMISSION. This NEEDLE-FREE AIBP platform could open the door to new vaccines against other respiratory bacteria.

- Leavitt is a fantastically threatening name for the press secretary to a wannabe despot. Leavitt, or else!

- How is the US going to maintain control over Venezuela? Is this going to be a war requiring full US military occupation, a straightforward quasi-annexation sustained by local client militias or something in-between?
- Well, they say every (supposed) Trot argument is correct at least once in history. How about now? #Iran #Venezuela #Trump #USA
- Solidarity with everyone in the United States taking a stand against Trump‘s war machine. This is a struggle against unfettered tyranny. What will @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social do?
- Reposted by Jonathan DaviesMarco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
- Solidarity with all Venezuelan and Iranian fighters resisting the USA and its primary Middle Eastern client state.

- There is a lot of cheap talk about fighting Russia and having a proper war with it. In my view, that is insane. The talk should be of how to prevent such a war, not how to fight it. There is no outcome that would not be utterly devastating.

- I know the blimps want us to get ready for war. But is anyone seriously weighing the true extent of any threat based on structural factors? E.g., the Russian economy has around 20% of the purchasing power of the EU. How is Russia going to steamroller Europe?
- One for the anti vaxers, covidiots and great barrington “libertarians”. Lethally dangerous morons with corrupt, seedy, Trumpish Johnson atop the pile.
- “Have they given up? Are they just deciding to build up herd immunity by watching us die? The government has given up, hasn’t it? They are throwing us into the slaughterhouse.” It’s not hindsight - we knew this at the time @drrachelclarke.com writes: observer.co.uk/news/nationa...
