FULL TEXT:
The line that Trump is “looking to withdraw the U.S. from the entire world” and cede spheres of influence to “authoritarians” like Putin plays well to transatlantic elites, but it’s incorrect.
The Trump admin insists on remaining the lone hegemon everywhere. US nukes, “missile defense”, Iron Dome, Iran threats, “board of peace”, $1 trillion Pentagon spending etc. all remain intact.
The one exception is letting Russia take some ethnic Russian areas of eastern Ukraine in a war sparked by the Maidan coup of 2014, where the US backed the installation of a puppet government. And after tens of billions authorized by a bipartisan coalition including AOC, Trump doesn’t want to spend more money fueling a proxy war Ukraine can’t win anyway.
AOC’s self-described foreign policy “tutor” Matt Duss is omitting this from his tutelage, to the detriment of a reality-based progressive foreign policy vision. Like Obamacare, still better than the available alternatives IMO, but nonetheless preserving and parroting a saber-rattling status quo.

THE REST OF THE TEXT:
I’ve spent years thinking about AI as the brain of machines.
This feels like the first glimpse of something else.A body that does not have a fixed shape.
Today it’s millimeter-scale.
Tomorrow, it’s medicine moving through the body, or machines exploring places nothing solid can reach.That thought excites me.
And honestly, it unsettles me too.So here’s the question.
When machines no longer have a stable form, what does “control” even mean?This video was made with so much hatred and abhorrence, I love it so much https://t.co/O3Hd2dFn3X

Excellent deep-dive in the water crisis behind data centers, in the USA, but this will matter everywhere eventually. Full article is much too long to post, absolutely worth a click if you’re at all curious about the logistics behind data centers.

THIS IS UTTERLY PATHETIC. But unfortunately it's the world view of the establishment left led by the likes of @thenation, which has fully embraced the cold war with China and rejected its own reporting over the years on the Asia-Pacific – much of it from me.

Cubans are protesting wannabe U.S. Ambassador to Cuba, Mike Hammer all over the island and these goons want you to believe they're government operatives as if Cubans aren't pissed about the U.S. trying to starve them. If you fall for this, you're the mark, and a sucker. https://t.co/WGSSWTfUKJ

Translation: When a French general says they’re going to recolonize Africa, it’s no big deal. But when a Nigerien general says we need to prepare for a direct war with France, it causes a media frenzy. Thanks, General Ibroh! Now they’ll understand that 2026 isn’t 1880.
