The Igor "Stelkov" Girkin of the United States, minus sitting in a jail cell for state crimes and the conviction for war crimes.
MTG has moved into the "90% to 95% right about things" space, but is still a white Christian nationalist and generally an awful human being.
Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

🧵Putin offered to host U.S. reporters in a Ukrainian city his army does not hold.
Hours later, Zelenskyy's drones shut down every airport in Moscow while the Russian leader was in town.
Putin spent the afternoon explaining what Russia controls, & the evening finding out. 1/🧵

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Democrats in the US Senate are demanding that Musk preserve SpaceX documents on Starlink restrictions in Ukraine and find out who authorized them. The disruptions could have hindered military operations of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, —WSJ
Musk claimed that the restrictions were introduced at the behest of Trump, but the president denied this. Marco Rubio also rejected the involvement of the White House. Now the senators want to find out who made the decision. SpaceX must respond by November 30.
After winning the midterm elections, Democrats are planning large-scale investigations of the Trump administration's actions, including its policy towards Ukraine, starting in January.

A very stupid idea. Elevating Putin to world power status. Why? And, meeting Xi after the Nvidia debacle, simply rewards bad behavior. If we can make it out of this stupid summit without some disaster and/or humiliation, it will be a miracle.

A nonstarter actually at odds with what MAGA is suggesting. The Pentagon’s force posture review may lead to a US troop reduction in Europe (though I doubt Grynkewich is advocating that judging by how he’s reported here), but that means European NATO allies inherit more of a conventional burden.
Eg: Germany has the 45th Panzer Brigade and the 37th Panzergrenadier Brigade (about 6,000 soldiers) in Lithuania this month for exercises. The UK has 1,000 troops in Estonia 100km from the Russian border, the French 300. If anything, those figures are set to grow. This 1997 nonsense is floated as a precondition for a peace deal that isn’t even on offer.
The Russians are even more unserious now than they were in 2021 when they thought taking Kyiv would be a holiday excursion and Sweden and Finland were still outside of NATO. Witkoff and Kushner are simps but they can’t sell this.

Lauren Chen, co-founder of Tenet Media, the outlet at the center of a DOJ investigation into a nearly $10M Russian influence operation, is now posting from Mar-a-Lago.
Under Biden, 2 RT employees were indicted and Chen's US work visa was revoked in 2024. A senior State Department adviser later acknowledged helping facilitate her return under Trump.
This is an accurate take.
When you see the immediate ridicule that people like Mitt Romney and Nikki Haley still evoke from the base voters of the Republican Party today, it’s easy to see why the GOP is quickly becoming unserious and uncompetitive nationally with no clear path to grow itself back. When folks like that are likely to do better in a Democratic Primary than a Republican Primary despite the policy differences, it’s self-evident how much the GOP has shrunk itself. Those voters are a majority of suburbia—and they are effectively Democrats now because the GOP has willingly run them off. It’s how you lose by 10 points in formerly red states. And it’s not clear the GOP wants to or even has the ability to change. They have sworn off as their enemies all the people they most need to help make the party competitive again. So now they’re just arguing with themselves in a corner that’s only growing smaller.

They need someone with courage that Moscow is afraid of and Washington hates. She's perfect

Elon Musk is a military contractor with access to highly sensitive national security info. He also cheated on his wife Talulah, used ketamine, publicly smoked weed with Joe Rogan, and has regular phone calls with Vladimir Putin. Why is he treated differently than Jensen Huang?

I’m so sick of people saying “who cares if Trump MAKES money in office, he donated his salary.”
Trump made $3 BILLION in office.
His salary is $400k.
Below is a true-to-size comparison of the two for the IGNORANT MAGA FOLKS.
👀
Model IV- Devastating Results: In October, Elon Musk didn't just throttle Ukraine on the ground: SpaceX coordinated with Russia in orbit to freeze ICEYE-X36 so Russia could extract U.S. radar and battery tech, compromising U.S. and NATO satellite sovereignty. Our new 28-page quantitative study, 3-page Executive Brief, and 5-Act orbital animation prove the structural damage across the Western kill chain and global commodity markets. (Pete Hegseth and Emil Michael played direct role. Is the White House complicit? It's hard to see how they are not.)
Since Project CORONA in 1958, Moscow chased U.S. spy satellites for 68 years with zero close-hold successes because Russian radars are blind across 265.1 degrees of Earth. In June 2026, U.S./NATO radar satellite ICEYE-X36 easily escaped a Russian approach in 60.8 minutes.
68 Years in 41 Hours: How Elon Musk Helped Russia Shatter U.S. and NATO Satellite Supremacy 👇
-The Ground Throttle Failed, Triggering the Orbital Brake: Following the Oct 9 Putin-Trump call and Russian diesel waiver (OFAC GL 135), SpaceX capped Ukrainian military Starshield terminals at 101-161 km/h on Oct 13-14 (-22.98% daily drone intercepts, p = 0.0019). Yet autonomous drones guided by U.S. NRO/NATO radar satellite ICEYE-X36 struck Rosneft's Ryazan refinery on Oct 15 AM anyway. Hours later (04:15:44Z), SpaceX posted a misleading 401m Starlink collision alert (internal v1-v4 pass: 1.93-2.00 km) to freeze X36 under FCC Condition 16 (-96.64% maneuver drop) while 31,000 Stargaze cameras tracked Russia's COSMOS 2612 sprinting into a 640m hold for 41.4 to 47.7 hours.
-Tech Extraction, Prague Wipe & Finland's Seizure: At 640m (+57.9 dB / 616,068x flux gain), Russia recorded X36's Title 50 1,200 MHz radar template to track both X36 and twin X37 from 500+ km away (+13.85 to +26.86 dB standoff SNR). On Oct 18, COSMOS 2612 timed Stellar Exploration's shared 8S battery 2-orbit thruster lockout (191.12 min), firing its departure burn +0.67 seconds after X36 recharged. Within 24 hours (Oct 19), Stellar cut U.S. ownership in Prague from 85% to 33% (Notice OV12312900) to block DoD audits, SpaceX onboarded Chinese operators into Space Safety (Oct 6 & 16), and on Nov 5 Finland stripped commercial ICEYE of command over its 3 military radar satellites.
-245 NRO Spy Sats Exposed & The 6.3-Min Hormuz Warning: All 245 classified NRO Starshield satellites (348 active hulls) fly in that exact compromised 525-559 km shell (confirmed Oct 28 by Putin on live TV praising orbital coordination with "Mr. Musk"). Perched 66-99s behind X36 on its descending orbit from Ryazan/Kyiv (~08:02Z) to Qeshm Island/Hormuz (~08:09Z) and Diego Garcia (~08:18Z), Russia now gives Tehran a live 4.6-7.1 min blind-spot warning (corroborated Nov 7 at Qeshm) while locking COSMOS 2611 and 2613 onto twin ICEYE-X37.
-Pentagon Enablement, Depleted Magazines & Two Market Shocks: Handed $11.88B+ in CoCo contracts by Sec Def Hegseth and CTO Emil Michael ($5M-$25M xAI sale 72h before seizing Maven and cutting CENTCOM reviewers 16-to-1), unthrottled spring AI targeting and Iranian salvos left U.S. forces with 3.7-5.5 Patriot raids and forced 74%-86% of 5th Fleet destroyers off-station to reload at Diego Garcia (LTG Sylvia fired Oct 28). Market impact splits into two unpooled shocks: (1) freezing X36 cut Ryazan restrikes 76.4% (p = 0.0000337), restoring +122.15 kb/d for GL 135 until Nov 4-5 restrikes stranded 4 diesel tankers; and (2) 5th Fleet VLS reload lag collapsed unescorted Hormuz clean products 81.2% (-2.923 mb/d), driving LR2 TC20 to $21.86M and 4:3 Gasoil/Brent cracks to $85.14-$89.43/bbl.

🧵At 7:00 AM on Thursday, a Russian Air Force colonel walked to his driveway in Putin's hometown, turned his key, and blew up.
The bomber had already landed in Istanbul 55 minutes earlier.
It was the second officer car-bombed on that highway in 11 weeks. 1/🧵

Exactly. Countries do not lightly assume the burdens of military alliances, including defense spending, military coordination, and the risk of becoming involved in another nation's conflict. They do so because they perceive tangible security benefits, often in response to external threats.
NATO is not a military force relentlessly pushing eastward. It is an alliance originally formed in response to Soviet expansionism, whose continued relevance has been reinforced by Russian expansionism. The countries of Eastern Europe sought NATO membership largely because of their historical experiences with Moscow and their concerns about future Russian aggression. Without that threat, NATO might well have ceased to exist long ago, or at least evolved into a very different organization.
Georgia, Ukraine, and Moldova are compelling case studies in Russian imperialism. This is why Finland and Sweden joined NATO. And had Ukraine been a NATO member before Russia's aggression began in 2014, Moscow would not have risked a direct military confrontation with NATO by invading Ukraine.
NATO expansion is a myth. It is a Russian lie. Here is the map.
After World War II the Russians militarily occupied half the European continent. The Russians picked their leaders. They wrote their laws. They brutalized their people and took whatever they wanted.
When the Soviet Union collapsed, all of these peoples who had suffered immensely under the Russians were desperate to get real security and protection from the Russians.
Russia is the ONLY cause of NATO enlargement because the people of Eastern Europe always knew they were going to be invaded again as soon as the Russians succeeded at some form of economic capitalism.
Russian imperialism is the only cause of this war.

❗️❗️BILD citing its own sources from unofficial negotiations describes requirements for a "new European security architecture" from Russia:
• Maintaining Russian control over the occupied territories of Ukraine + the entire Donbas.
• Non-aligned status of Ukraine, rejection of NATO (EU membership is not excluded).
• Demilitarization of the ports of Odesa and Mykolaiv.
• Freedom of navigation in the Black and Baltic Seas.
• Finland's withdrawal from NATO (return to pre-accession status).
• NATO's refusal to have bases in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
• The transformation of Moldova into a federal republic (Moldova + Transnistria + Gagauzia) with the right to referendums on the independence of Transnistria and Gagauzia in the event of Moldova's accession to the EU.
In return, the Russian side allegedly proposes to withdraw nuclear weapons from Belarus, to abandon the deployment of medium-range missiles (Iskander/Oreshnik) there and to withdraw troops from Transnistria.
Bild emphasizes that there are parallel groups of competing mediators.

We have functional morons in charge of this, the real estate bros at it again, who essentially are promoting a pro Russian strategy. The smartest thing for Europe and Ukraine to do is just ignore these two idiots. Smile and wave. Meanwhile, Ramp up all u got, in terms of military assistance, outside the US purview. Ie, act like the US doesn’t exist. (Hopefully Ratcliffe keeps the intel flowing. Somehow this continues. Don’t even count on that long term, of course, find other ways (the French, etc). And we r messing with Starlink again somehow. Horrible. Bottom line: The only hope for the US doing anything productive rest of Trump term is that a Democratic Congress can force through legislation - with a veto proof majority with some pro Ukraine Republicans - to better aid Ukraine, and that only comes after January 3. All the stuff now it’s just total nonsense. Embarrassing, historically so.
🚨Scoop: The U.S. has asked Russia to submit a new proposal for a future security agreement with Europe that includes Russian steps to ease tension with the continent, two sources with knowledge of the matter said. My story on @axios

Former GRU officer Victor Suvorov (Victor Rezun) says what I’m thinking:
The Russian Federation is headed for collapse. It could have survived another century while pumping out resources from Siberia.
But it chose to attack Ukraine. Suvorov calls it Russia’s “final war.”
