It does seem like Putin is rushing fo get the most possible out of his client Trump before the electoral bloodbath of 3 November.
NEW: Ukrainian troops were caught off guard by restrictions on Starlink satellite internet systems that disrupted frontline operations, as Kyiv received no advance warning from its partners of a Russian missile attack on its energy facilities for the second day running, Ukrainian officials tell me.
Ukraine blindsided by Starlink restrictions and intelligence gaps during Russian attack

This week's Talarico op is a reminder that X is a prime asset of a GOP Super PAC jacked directly into some of the most powerful journalists and editors alive.
And I argue it's what gave us Trump 2 and Elon his trillionaire status.

When Ukraine destroys Russian data centers, hoards of aggressive right-wing bots disappear & the internet becomes friendlier. So much of politics is driven by the internet & so much of the internet is driven by Russians who want to hurt us. Shouldn’t we do something about that, given that we know it

Things got more insane just about as soon as I posted this last night.
DHS is now arguing that we cannot even put the names of ICE officers in our lawsuit against those officers. Their position is that, if a defendant works for DHS, they cannot be named in a lawsuit.
Never seen anything like it.
