"In Ukraine, a war of incremental gains as counteroffensive stall"
A woeful piece of CYA with multiple leaks. The anonymous ones are mostly US but some are Ukrainians. Depressing. Not least because of the implications.

EU budget dispute threatens €50bn war lifeline for Ukraine via
https://nitter.cz/FT
I’m not sure if anyone understands what Ukraine losing will mean.
It will be OVERUN. Orban has always been a Russian asset and Art 7 of the Lisbon Treaty should have been invoked.

"A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending"
A truly frightening piece by Robert Kagan
I ask myself who could win against Trump?
Probably not Biden. He should step aside.

We rescued our dog, Archie, three years ago. He’s finally settling in
"When we had to go out, we’d walk into the study, shut the door behind us, turn on the tape, then slip out the back door”

Putin seems to be winning the war in Ukraine—for now
"The West could do a lot more to frustrate Mr Putin. If it chose, it could deploy industrial and financial resources that dwarf Russia’s"
But do they want to?
A depressing but realistic piece.

Partly because Biden will be Biden.
The voters are the problem. Addicted to drama will get you lots of places. Fascism being one of them.

Russia is poised to take advantage of political splits in Ukraine
"The security services had effectively eliminated most levers of Russian influence since the start of the war, he added. The most effective levers were now “Ukrainians themselves”.
