Polish journalist Mateusz Mazzini says he's seen the (likely classified) read-out from the Norway-Finland-Russia phone call. No surprise: Putin's demands are totally unacceptable. Likely: POL govt leaked it so that all of Europe knows. => Arm Ukraine triple more and no more talking

Vladimir Putin used most of his call with the leaders of Finland and Norway to lecture them about medieval Slavic history, underscoring the difficulties Europe faces in asserting itself in upcoming peace talks with Russia. w/ @maxseddon.bsky.social @henryjfoy.ft.com www.ft.com/content/a384...

OTD in 1981 “whisky on the rocks”. Soviet submarine S-363 ran aground after “navigational error” in Sweden. My navy converts ships to submarines and submarines to ships. My trolls are not snowflakes about this.

Every victory for #democracy is a victory for every democrat everywhere. That’s one good reason to celebrate the wins, even small ones - to encourage others you may never have even heard of!

Hungarian PM Péter Magyar: "I have just spoken by phone with the leaders of the Students List, who won the elections in Serbia, to congratulate them... I assured them of Hungary’s support. I was delighted to hear how much strength our victory in April had given them during this difficult struggle."

It is a beautiful day today in Serbia. After 14 years, Vučić and SNS have been defeated. The students of Serbia showed that protesting and mobilizing can bring change. We celebrate alongside our Member Party Zeleno Levi Front.

So how did Lula come from behind to defeat Bolsonaro? In short, turnout. Bolsonaro's vote share barely moved. But Lula banked millions of votes from those who didn't vote in the first round & won eliminated candidates' votes. A remarkable mobilisation. Second round turnout is usually below first.

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

Day 1706 of my 3 day war. Vucic lost in Serbia, Bolsonaro lost in Brazil and Donald couldn't rig a casino he owns, never mind the midterms. I remain a master strategist.

Les employés de Meta dénoncent l'ingérence dans les élections brésiliennes 🇧🇷. "C'est la première fois à notre connaissance que les faveurs faites aux politiciens tels que les Bolsonaros ont été effectuées [] de manière aussi évidente et biaisée." Élus 🇫🇷, pensez-vous que Meta vous aidera (ou pas)?

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

Authors, There is a massive surge in AI-generated scams from people impersonating podcasters or reviewers or marketers offering to promote or boost books. For a fee. Then they disappear. Often from a Gmail account. I know we all want our books to be better promoted, but don't fall for these scams.

Tämä LVM:n ehdotus tarkoittaisi todennäköisesti sitä, että moni pienempi lentokenttä hiljenee. Harvalla kunnalla tai maakunnalla lienee varaa maksaa ”omasta” lentoyhteydestä. Mutta ilmasto kiittää, ja säästyneet rahat voidaan laittaa junayhteyksien kehittämiseen. yle.fi/a/74-20251128

Ukrainian presidential advisor Serhiy Beskrestnov confirms Elon Musk's Space X crippled Ukrainian capabilities last night. In other words, the US deliberately sabotaged European defence operations mid-mission. Every country in the world should move away from buying American hardware ASAP.

U.S. policy is now to help fund 🇷🇺’s war, limit Starlink in 🇺🇦, & not share intel about incoming missiles killing civilians. “In the aftermath of the attack, presidential adviser Dmytro Lytvyn told reporters that allies had not provided early warning of the launches for the second day in a row.”

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.
