Anne Applebaum on disinformation:

‘The essence of Putinist propaganda... is not so much that you’re expected to believe everything he says about... the greatness of Russia or the horror of Western civilisation. But you’re expected to become so confused by the multitude and number of lies that you’ve been told that you throw your hands up in the air, and you go home, and you say, “I don’t know anything. I can’t be involved in this. I don’t want anything to do with politics. I’m just going to live my life.” And that turns out to be a really, really successful form of propaganda.’

On 25 July 2024 Mike Pompeo, former secretary of state in Donald Trump’s government, published a ‘peace plan’ which can be summarised as follows:

• $500bn lend-lease programme for #Ukraine
• reconstruction of Ukraine financed by frozen Russian reserves
• non-recognition of #Russia’s occupation of Ukrainian territories
• the creation of a $100bn defence fund for Ukraine by #NATO countries, in which, however, the ‘European NATO members’ are to have the main share and the US only 20%.

The plan concludes: “if Russia submits to these conditions, sanctions will be gradually lifted from it, until the sanctions are fully lifted after Ukraine’s entry into NATO and the EU”

Let's distract ourselves from the elections for a moment with this review of a Russian Lada car.

In its basic configuration for 1.5 million rubles (~ $15,000), the car won't have airbags, a sun visor mirror, a stereo, speakers, an armrest, a light in the glove compartment, and parking sensors.

I'm Russian living in Russia. I was 5 when Putin was 'elected'. I'm 30 now. I know that feeling of hopelessness very well. You should never surrender. Autocrats of the world are counting on you being down and depoliticized because all of this. Don't give them an easy win. Always fight, no matter how bad situation seems.

On #ForeignPolicy, #Trump could further disrupt the world order by leaving #NATO or severely weakening the 75-year-old transatlantic military #alliance. He has also expressed skepticism at continuing #US aid for #Ukraine to fight back #Russia’s invasion. He has said little of the #war in the #MiddleEast but has privately told #Israel’s PM #Netanyahu “to do what you have to do”.

#geopolitics

Given President Biden's blanket immunity for 'official acts', granted to him by the Supreme Court, he should declare the election null and void, and cite Russian interference as the reason!

As stated by the media, only 30% of the shells Russia is currently using are manufactured domestically. If this is accurate, Russian Soviet-era ammo arsenals should be empty by now. To prove or refute this claim, I’ve reviewed Russian arsenals, and here are my observations.

The Chinese Connection-
"The last time Donald Trump won an election, he faced a cash shortage, forcing him to take out an unexpected loan, which he kept hidden by leaving it off his financial disclosure reports, Forbes has learned. Then he apparently quickly repaid it, using proceeds he received from selling his daughter’s penthouse to a woman with Chinese government connections."
