The migration to #Bluesky has begun. I’m spending my day copying the list of people I follow here, hoping to find most of you there (about 1.3K). 15 years on Twitter, I refuse to call it anything else, just like I refuse to like corrupt ppl.

russian barbarity knows no bounds. Today at 9:15, russians struck volunteer Vladyslav Samusenko’s evacuation vehicle near Sloviansk. At 9:21, he received footage of the strike and threats in his DMs. They were deliberately hunting him. Their target: a volunteer risking his life to save others. This is who russians really are.

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

Russian Kosmos 2612 and ICEYE-X36 (providing Ukraine military support) are now in perfect sync with each other. The Russian military satellite is intentionally stalking and tracking the Western radar satellite. Keeping a satellite "bumper-to-bumper" in this manner allows Russia to intercept or jam data transmissions, physically inspect Western technology, or quickly pivot to execute a kinetic or non-kinetic anti-satellite (ASAT) attack with very little warning or fuel expenditure. Kosmos 2612 executed a series of highly precise, fuel-heavy maneuvers to force itself into a "coplanar" orbit—matching ICEYE-X36's exact altitude (~555 km), speed, and inclination (~97.8°). The ICEYE-X36 satellite is giving the Ukraine military support.

A blue wave isn’t enough. We need a BLUE TSUNAMI. From New Hampshire to California, we have an opportunity to send a message across this country that we’re BETTER than this. November 3. Let’s TAKE IT BACK.

This is what those calling for "land for peace" want. Russian occupation means rape, kidnapping, and death. And it doesn’t even mean peace, as Russia would continue its offensive because destroying Ukraine is Putin’s goal.
Those who preach peace through capitulation won't tell you what russian occupation means. russians occupied Izyum for less than 6m. After liberation, we found mass graves of 447 ppl. Most of them were civilians — 215 women, 194 men and 5 children. Many bodies had signs of violent death. This is what people with proud 'Christian' in their bios are pushing Ukraine for.

The dumping of Starlink commences
🇵🇱 NEW: Poland is preparing to develop its own alternative to Elon Musk’s Starlink, potentially in cooperation with other European countries. Deputy Defence Minister Cezary Tomczyk revealed today that: • Initial offers have already been received. • Funding has been secured, according to the minister. • The proposed technical architecture is being planned. • A formal project announcement could come within the next few months. The system would initially serve Poland’s military, followed by security services, government institutions and potentially the wider European market. The announcement comes amid controversy over restrictions on Starlink and Starshield services used by Ukraine. Tomczyk argued that Poland cannot remain dependent on a single individual controlling critical communications infrastructure. Importantly, the project remains in the planning stage. No operational satellite network or final contract has been announced.

Now that @AbdulElSayed has been asked to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood because of his mother’s alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood before he was born, will we be asking Donald Trump to disavow the Ku Klux Klan because of his father’s alleged ties to the KKK in the 1920s? washingtonpost.com/history/2…

- Alexander Stubb: President of Finland “Anyone who says that a referendum that has been conducted in the Crimean peninsula is somehow valid doesn't know what international relations means. We fundamentally disagree with that approach. I personally will never, ever recognise any territorial acquisition by Russia to Ukraine" .............. One of the great leaders.. Thank you 😉

Russian forces have executed Ukrainian prisoners of war in the direction of Huliaipole, according to a spokesperson for the "South" group of forces. The Ukrainian military intercepted Russian radio communications in which troops were ordered to "finish off" the wounded and "liquidate" prisoners "immediately." Members of the Russian 38th Motorized Rifle Brigade are believed to be involved in the crime. The Prosecutor General's Office has launched an investigation, and the intercepted material has been handed over to law enforcement authorities.

Shameful. Over a thousand Allied Soldiers were killed in Afghanistan fighting alongside US Soldiers and Marines. Why would the Secretary think it was appropriate to disparage our Allies in front of these young Cadets, future Officers?
Hegseth on Afghanistan: I was a captain in Afghanistan, and we would go to the headquarters in Kabul, and there would be 50 flags at the headquarters. It was a beautiful thing to see 50 different countries contributing to the NATO alliance and the ISAF mission there. Except there were like maybe five that contributed. It was actually closer to one or two that, by the end, were actually involved in kinetic operations. In fact, the ISAF patch, we would joke that it meant "I Saw Americans Fighting."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Over 1100 non-American soldiers from 31 US-allied countries were killed fighting in Afghanistan, approximately 1/3 of the total combat deaths. t.co/x4tGhxJiFG

🇬🇧 General Sir Roly Walker, der Chef des britischen Heeres, sagt es jetzt offen: Die Zeit, in der Großbritannien nicht an einen Krieg denken musste, ist vorbei. Die Bürger werden bald zu Opfern für Verteidigung und Sicherheit aufgerufen. Gesagt hat er das am Donnerstag vor 700 Soldaten der 1 (UK) Division in Catterick, der schnellen Eingreiftruppe des Heeres. Die politische Führung werde den Briten sehr bald erklären, wo das Risiko liegt und dass sie diesen Opfern zustimmen müssen. Den Soldaten sagte er, dass die Verteidigung des Landes auf ihnen ruht, falls sie in den Kampf gerufen werden. Im Juli 2024 hatte Walker gesagt, dem Land blieben drei Jahre zur Vorbereitung. Premier Starmer stimmte ihm damals ausdrücklich zu. Diese Frist läuft im Sommer 2027 aus. Dieselbe Debatte steht in jeder europäischen Hauptstadt an. Die Hälfte der Briten würde laut Ipsos unter keinen Umständen für das Land kämpfen. Mehr als die Hälfte will höhere Verteidigungsausgaben. Von diesen wollen 37 Prozent die Mittel aus anderen Etats nehmen und 36 Prozent über höherek Steuern holen. Verteidigungsminister Wes Streeting sprach im September auf dem Labour-Parteitag von Zielkonflikten. Die Antwort auf die Kostenfrage kommt am 28. Oktober, wenn Schatzkanzler John Healey den Haushalt vorlegt. Quellen: Forces News (BFBS), RUSI

Yesterday Zuckerberg tried to squelch the voice of the people. He failed. More than seven million people came together for No Kings. Now we need to ensure that Trump, Musk, Zuckerberg, and other powerful authoritarians inside and outside the government, fail again on November 3.
