"Throughout our history we’ve learned this lesson – when dictators do not pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos. They keep moving. And, the costs & threats to America & the world keep rising.

"American diplomacy matters."

"#Putin’s war was premeditated & unprovoked. He rejected efforts at diplomacy. He thought the West & @NATO wouldn’t respond. And, he thought he could divide us here at home.
Putin was wrong. We were ready."

#InfrastructureWeek has arrived!

This #Infrastructure bill is about more than money.

It is also a bold commitment to universal broadband that we should recognize and celebrate.

Next: #Азербайджан #Евровизија
For #Eurovision #Азербайджан and #Spying studies, here's an article from @warisboring about Azeri #aviation being well-placed to use my #Soviet favourite (Foxbat) to work #intelligence against my #USAF (Blackbird).

It’s #InfrastructureWeek! One of the best things we can do for our state & country is invest in transportation & infrastructure
Remember this week to thank our country’s transportation workers who work hard every day to maintain & improve our nation’s roads, highways, bridges, waterways & more #InfrastructureWeek
1/4 of all rail traffic in the US—that’s 1,300 trains a day—passes through Chicago. The strength of America’s transportation systems depends on the strength of Illinois's transportation systems, & it's well past time for an upgrade ti.me/2obLj0V

This week's US infrastructure attacks:

* Atlanta city services paralyzed due to ransomware attack; deadline for ransom is today
* Baltimore 911 dispatch system hacked
* Boeing hit by serious virus, metastasizing quickly

In February, I wrote about the strange false nuclear strike alerts, and possibility of infrastructure hacks leading to war google.com/amp/s/amp.fast…
