1) Some context here is probably a good idea. Trump is verbally smacking our NATO allies over energy dependence on Russian oil, while NATO's mission is to oppose bad actors on the world stage LIKE Russia.
2) Europe imports about a third of its oil from Russia as of 2015 energypost.eu/europe-increas…
3) Russia's TOP exports, making up over HALF of its total exports, is oil and natural gas worldatlas.com/articles/which…
4) In 2016, 40% of Germany's oil imports came from Russia. cleanenergywire.org/factsheets/ger…
5) Even Obama tried lecturing Europe on this problem, but Obama's lectures didn't work, and Obama was a shit negotiator. The article is from 2014. reuters.com/article/us-usa…
6) Europe's oil imports from Russia GREW since then.
7) When the media tries to gaslight you on NATO, remember: Obama tried to do the exact same thing Trump is doing now, and FAILED. Just keep that in mind. /end

1) Who’s on the attack? Its a question that’s asked thousands of times every day. Usually its asked as ‘who’s the aggro deck’, when people are playing competitive card games, which is where I learned the concept.
2) Essentially, in a one on one competition, there are two strategies. Offense, and defense. Nice and simple. The offense aggresively goes after their goals, the defense will prevent their opponents from achieving their goals until the defense can achieve its goals.
3) Whoever does best at their strategy, wins.

So what happens when both competitors go into a match intending to be on the offense? What happens when both intend to be on the defense?

It’s the morning of Christmas Eve. This is the perfect time for me to air:

MY FESTIVUS GREIVANCES!
First off: @realDonaldTrump; you have not invited me to host your alternative to the WHCD. Disappointment fills me.
@realDonaldTrump Second, Hot Persian Women. You have not flocked to me as fast as I’d have hoped. The mullahs aren’t gone yet, so I’m willing to forgive, but as soon as they are we’re gonna polygamize on this this shit like we’re modern day Saudi royalty.

Good morning! The Last Jedi novelization comes out in PB Tuesday. I'll offer some thoughts from the writing process in roughly chronological order. Hopefully it will be of some interest/answer some of the Qs folks had. (For which thank you.) amzn.to/2zrkytY
OK, that prologue. It's *NOT* a vision of a better life for Luke. It's a warning from the Force, which has used a dream to slip through Luke's defenses. In both dream and reality, Luke's life is seemingly tranquil but evil is ascendant everywhere else in the galaxy.
Why start there? I wanted to open with Luke and step back in time; to be in Luke's head in a way that would be harder later, when we're exploring Rey's story and he's a mystery she's trying to solve; and to introduce the idea of the Force as almost a character in its own right.

Began reading @AnnCoulter “Reisitance Is Futile” last night. You’re going slap your forehead when you see what she said about “grab ‘em by the pussy.” Did anyone know that there was more in that tape? I’ts hysterical...& upsetting that it was taken out of context.
Here we go: “Anyone who says Trump admitted on tape to committing sexual assault is a stone-cold liar and should never be trusted to deliver any facts honestly.” #WednesdayWisdom
But wait! I heard that over and over again. You did, too. You mean it wasn’t true? Oh, i remember- b/c HINDSIGHT now illuminates the plot that had not yet surfaced in the collective consciousness-THEY WERE LYING or Willfully Misrepresenting the Truth. #WednesdayWisdom

#NATO summit: NATO leaders united in approving plans to bolster defenses against #Russia. (Earlier Trump slammed allies, called Germany "captive of Russia" b/c of energy deal. Actually, Russia needs that energy deal more than Germany) - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/world/europe/t…
FACT CHECK: Russia accounts for less than 20% of Germany’s energy needs

Trump falsely claimed Germany gets up to 70% of its energy from and is therefore “captive to Russia.” Nowhere near the truth, even w/ NordStream2 pipeline. snappytv.com/tc/8449919/592… #NATO #NATOsummit
#Russia's pipeline to #Germany that Trump seems to be so mad about, explained - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/news/worldview… #NATO #NATOsummit #NordStream2

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.
