After all the reading and writing yesterday, some quick Twitter hits.
I mean, who woulda thunk this? And yet it makes perfect sense, for anyone with a nodding acquaintance with Leftists:
Always keep an eye on the latest developments in the emergence of this new cross-ideological pro-war consensus. A frothing neocon-style screed appearing in Rolling Stone would've been a ludicrous notion not too long ago
Michael Tracey @mtracey
Rolling Stone, once considered a "counter-cultural" magazine, is now running call-to-arms screeds from some of the most psychotically pro-war journalists on the planet. This could have easily appeared in the Weekly Standard back during its neocon heyday
Remember all the scare talk about Trump? It wasn’t actually that long ago, seems like yesterday …
Reduced to rubble—Woops! Warning,: Prog “experts” at the controls:
The US$ has fallen quite dramatically against the RUB this last week - today over 2.4% on the MOEX thus far (all exchanges are showing a US$ decline). If any countries start to pay for gas in RUB, we'll probably start to see quite a rise in the RUB.
Another “expert” with a plan:
Warning: financial “expert” at work. A day late, a dollar … oh, my:
$NFLX This is what happens when you tweet about military strategy in Ukraine all day instead of focusing on preserving and growing capital for your shareholders.
But not to worry:
FEDERAL RESERVE ANNOUNCES IT WILL BEGIN NETFLIX SUBSCRIPTION PURCHASES AT A PACE OF 1 MILLION SUBSCRIPTIONS PER MONTH
Economics need no longer make your head hurt—it’s really this simple:
Why is this no surprise?
Such a promising hoax, and how soon we forget:
FM #Lavrov on🇺🇦provocation in Kramatorsk: In Kramatorsk, which is under🇺🇦control, people were asked to gather at railway station. Then they were attacked with Tochka-U missile. It was proved that it was launched by🇺🇦army: it is why they stopped showing video of attack in the West
But at least some one is having a good time …
Mark, I’m going to file this In the folder marked “You Just Can’t Make This S**t
Up”!!
O/T but regarding the CTH Twitter take:
Our beloved "Former Intel Officials" have written another letter. This time they urge opposition by Congress to Elon's takeover bid because the Deep State needs Twitter so they can control public opinion.
According to CTH:
Citing the information control mechanisms they assembled, vis-a-vis the ability of social media networks to control and approve what is available for the public to read and review, the intelligence officials declare that any effort to break up the private side of the intel/tech partnership will only result in less ability of the intelligence apparatus to control public opinion.
