America’s major democratic allies — UK, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, Canada, Poland, Netherlands, Norway, Finland, Spain — push back on the Vance-Dmitriev plan’s most problematic points, say the draft “is a basis which will require additional work,” and reaffirm support for…
This so-called ‘peace plan’ has real problems, and I am highly skeptical it will achieve peace. Ukraine should not be forced to give up its lands to one of the world’s most flagrant war criminals in Vladimir Putin. The size and disposition of Ukraine’s armed forces is a sovereign…
US Warship Cuts Path of Russian Tanker Headed to Venezuela
A CBS News staffer was going to be laid off but then wrote to Bari Weiss about how much he loves Israel so she spared him. If someone wrote this as satire for the onion they’d tell the writer it was too on the nose.
I'm sure this will be an unpopular opinion, but while the text of the US plan for Ukraine is poorly drafted and incomplete, it is not a simple call for Ukrainian capitulation. As a starting point for something that could stop the killing, it has some promise. A few thoughts 1/

Iran #Oil keeps getting rebranded as Malaysia oil. China customs official data is zero oil imports from Iran since June 2022. BUT China oil imports from Malaysia 1.13 mmb/d in Sept yet Malaysia total oil production is only 0.346 mmb/d. Note China oil imports from Malaysis…
“A senior U.S. official said that [Umerov] significantly changed one of the 28 points. In an apparent move to expose alleged corruption, the draft had called for an audit of all international aid Ukraine had received. The language was changed to say all parties will receive “full…
Update from the Zelensky meeting with his ruling faction: Andriy Yermak stays in place. The Ukrainian president has decided to keep his powerful and polarizing chief of staff in place, despite calls for his ouster amid the deepening corruption scandal.
Volodymyr Zelensky will hold a critical meeting with his ruling Servant of the People faction around 8pm Kyiv time. It comes amid a widening corruption scandal that's embroiled several of the president's allies and calls for his powerful chief of staff Andriy Yermak to be sacked…
Multiple references to regional diplomatic initiatives in the Araghchi-Lavrov call. Pezeshkian sent a letter to MBS reportedly containing a message conveying Iran's interest in diplomacy. Both MBS and Trump made reference to this during MBS' visit.

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein pursued a plan to fund Israeli cyberweapons firms with money raised from the storied Swiss banking family Rothschild Group. The years-long private discussions focused on using Rothschild as a vehicle to create a donor-advised venture capital fund intended to…
"We started a process" is the only really notable part of these remarks. Suggests *something* is in the works. FWIW Saudi has been quietly trying to get talks back up and running, and Pezeshkian sent a letter to MBS ahead of today's visit.
President Trump on Iran: "I can say I think they very badly want to make a deal. I am totally open to it, and we are talking to them, and we started a process, and it would be nice to have a deal with Iran."
Tikvah, who organized the Jewish Leadership Conference, just two months ago was awarded the largest NEH grant in history. This is essentially state-funded cancel culture and censorship—under an administration that claims to reject "wokeness" and DEI. x.com/infolibnews/st…
The Trump admin, through the National Endowment for the Humanities, is giving the largest grant in the agency's history—$10.4 million—to the Jewish-American neoconservative Tikvah Fund to counter "the pathology of anti-Semitism" and teach the Talmud. Tikvah is an Israel First…

If you're worried about the damage done by Project 2025, the progressive think tank The Center For American Progress is preparing a counter-agenda, Project 2029. One of the leading figures guiding the economic plank on that is Larry Summers.
When former Harvard President Lawrence H. Summers was pursuing a romantic relationship with a woman he described as a mentee, he turned to a longtime associate for guidance: Jeffrey E. Epstein. @dhruvtkpatel and @camsrivastava report. thecrimson.com/article/2025/1…
This is an absolutely brutal portrait of Summers's ethical judgement. It names the woman, who is now a tenured professor, and reveals Summers and Epstein were in close contact, often about women, until the day before Epstein was arrested. thecrimson.com/article/2025/1…
