He threatened a repeat of the Bolshevik Revolution if measures are not taken to deal with the problems.

Forecasts of a revolt also have been regularly floated in pro-Kremlin Telegram channels and by loyal military bloggers.
2)

Perhaps people are getting tired of Putin’s mistakes—too many to count. Some new ones, like helping Iran in the current conflict. All the while, the Russian economy is fast shrinking while the people mourn too many of their young people dead in combat.

Roger Froikin @rlefraim wrote, “Las Malvinas — Falklands

The British claim the Falklands as their territory, though the Falklands are almost 8,000 miles (almost 13,000 km) from London.
1)

The Falkland Islands’ primary natural resources driving their economy are fisheries (mainly squid and finfish), extensive sheep farming (wool), and significant untapped offshore oil and gas reserves.
2)

The islands also possess potential for onshore minerals like garnet and rutile, as well as vast potential for renewable energy through wind power. But to be fair, the distance from the UK means the Falklands are a rather large burden on the UK taxpayer, and

religious group, and that districts should be based only on geography and should be as compact as possible. In short—an end to any gerrymandering.

What happened to that? The vote was overwhelmingly in favor. But then it was ignored by the politicians.

Now, it is time to do what the voters of Florida wanted.

Does anyone else in Florida remember the referendum?”

Tweet 1 of 5: this is a big story where you'll see how it is a major, national problem in our elections. It begins -

A dumpster, an address, an 8-year-old warning.

Recovered from a Renton, WA dumpster: stacks of "Official Ballot" envelopes plus hundreds of WA Secretary of State "Register to Vote" postcards - all addressed to ONE strip-mall mailbox business at 330 SW 43rd St, Renton, State of Washington.

In 2018, King County Elections put it IN WRITING that this address is invalid for voter registration.

Crediting Bill Bruch, Matthew Frohlich and Jalene Cook of Washington State for their findings and work on this.

Guess which store it is:

Tweet 2 of 5: The scale of it in just one City

Public-record contents: 429 distinct names registered or balloted to that single commercial address, across 9 election cycles - Nov 2020 → Aug 2024.

Senders included King County Elections, Pierce County Auditor, Snohomish County Elections.

One mailbox. Nine elections. Three counties. Ballots and other election documents found in a box by a dumpster.

Tweet 3 will blow your mind!

3 of 5: Now for the names on these election documents, keep scrolling:

Population of Renton, WA is about 105,000.

Roger Froikin @rlefraim wrote, “I have been asked many times, where do the protesters against Benjamin Netanyahu and his policies get the funding.
1)

U.S. government funds: A July 2025 House Judiciary Committee memo alleged the U.S. State Department provided $42,000 to the Movement for Quality Government (MQG) for ‘civic activism training,’ which critics claim was used to fuel protests.
2)

Philanthropic intermediaries: The investigation highlighted that PEF Israel Endowment Funds, a U.S.-based nonprofit, served as a conduit, directing substantial funds—up to $884 million in total disbursements, part of which went to protest-associated groups—to Israeli NGOs.

@threadreaderapp can you unroll?

EXPOSED: @AnthropicAI says it is working to combat “extremist content.”

Anthropic appears to have relied on a network of SPLC-linked, Biden DHS-funded groups that target so-called “right-wing extremism” to influence its AI.

/2 Anthropic, the architect of Claude AI, has publicly committed to “mitigat[ing] extremist content risks.”

Our research shows that Anthroic’s approach appears to rely heavily on organizations run, funded, or influenced by key players tied to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

/3 One of Anthropic’s partners is the Global Project Against Hate & Extremism, or GPAHE.

GPAHE was co-founded by two longtime “veterans of the SPLC”:

➡️Heidi Beirich, former SPLC Intelligence Project Director

➡️Wendy Via, former SPLC Chief Communications & Development Officer

Should an organization that believes President Biden can amend the Constitution via Tweet have a monopoly on over seeing law schools? What about if the organization is partisan and also raises law school costs? U.S. Attorney @BradenBoucek & @FTC team up to say No!

"The ABA requirement meets Tennessee’s definition of a monopoly. It uses its cartel-like status to operate to the detriment of consumers and competitors...Discrimination based on race is illegal and wrong and may violate federal law." 🔥🔥

Every single post on this lady's timeline is just "wahhh old people. wahhhh The Establishment"

So sick of this lady who turned an organization that was supposed to 'inspire' people to run for office (an objectively good thing) into yet another org that focuses on nothing but factional/internescant anti-Dem struggles.

Just utterly obsessed with DNC minutia and related bullshit. Barely anything about the Trump admin/Republicans.

The arc of the scenario universe is long, but it bends inevitably toward more realistic emissions.

A new paper outlining the emissions scenarios we will be using in the upcoming IPCC AR7 report notes that "the CMIP6 high emission levels (quantified by SSP5-8.5) have become implausible".

It outlines a yet-to-be-released high emissions scenario notably lower than the one (SSP5-8.5) used in the prior IPCC 6th Assessment Report:

This is a change that a number of us in the community have long advocated, going back to Justin Ritchie's work in 2017.gmd.copernicus.org/articles/19/26…

Justin and I made this case back in 2019: thebreakthrough.org/issues/energy/…

And in 2020 Glen Peters and I published a piece in Nature arguing that high emissions scenarios were no longer "business as usual", and that more realistic emissions make for better climate policy: nature.com/articles/d4158…
