Sad day for Irish SAR with end of EIDW Sikorsky ops. S61 & S92 were workhorses w standing room working conditions & long legs to stay on station or head over the horizon. Coming from smaller Euro rescue helis they were revelations & joy to operate. Brings to mind lost comrades #R116 #GoMairidísBeo

Four years Ukraine is fighting for the whole Europe.
NATO was built to fight only one war, not to go to Afghanistan, not to go to Syria. One war to save free Europe from Russian aggression.

Given all of Witkoffs mistakes, it’s time for Trump to finally let Rubio do the job that Trump selected Rubio to do, and the Senate voted for Rubio to do.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Wow, this is revealing...
The plan says that "A dialogue will be held between Russia and NATO, mediated by the United States." This implies that both Russia and the Trump administration don't see the US as part of NATO in any real sense. That should deeply alarm every other NATO state.

The Saudi Crown Prince had Khashoggi dismembered in the Saudi embassy in Istanbul.
Dismembered while still alive.
But Khashoggi gave his phone to his fiancee and went in with his Apple Watch recording.
His watch was connected to his phone.
It captured the gruesome audio of his brutal killing.

Existing rules and laws applying to military secrecy are sufficient—and asking officers to sign NDAs is deeply inappropriate.
