No time for polite arguments with MAGA friends.

What with this and the attacks on Odesa infrastructure Ukraine can’t win a counteroffensive without more support. There are too many lives being lost. And an absolute failure by allies to respond to the grain deal situation and Kakhovka Dam destruction.

I’m sorry about your mum. An infection delayed is a reduction in risk and the possibility of treatments. Metformin and Paxlovid were not used until relatively recently. There are more antibody treatments in the pipeline. You are still a Novid. As am I!

Joaquín Beltrán: After 3.5 years of helping to keep my mom from a SARS-2 infection, she finally tested positive. I immediately checked her labs with her doc to get her Paxlovid and introduced the doctor to metformin studies that showed risk reduction for long covid, she prescribed both.

Yes. There is too much emphasis on the dangers of a Trump presidency and not enough on the Republicans who support Ukraine . They will go for him (opportunism of course) I can’t understand why they don’t see this. Given the self interest of politicians it might just swing things…

Anders Åslund: Conversations here in Washington suggest that @POTUS himself does not understand that he will be seen as a terrible foreign policy failure if Ukraine does not defeat Russia in Ukraine. His staff clearly does not get it as is obvious from their public statements.
