Zelensky hits out at "absurd" NATO
The Ukraine military is pretty much out of air defence munitions and 155mm shells. There has been little direct contact fighting between the sides from the start. They have been bombing the hell out of each other instead. A couple days ago the German English language service DW had a report from a hospital near the front. The Ukrainian doctor interviewed stated 2% of casualties were gunshot wounds. All the rest, 98%, caused by sharapnel. Ukraine is about done. Little wonder their leader tried so hard to get NATO directly involved. It was clearly out of desperation. Will Putin be satisfied with the Russian gains or continue on to Odesa and Kharkiv?

Putin meets Prigozhin: Getting to grips with latest twist in Wagner saga
There has been no images nor video of Prigozhin since his "coup" happened. My bet is he is long dead. Putin plays for keeps.

Yeah, I was living there in May, 2014. People seemed to take it I stride. Might be about time to turn the response up a notch or two

EC sends Pita shareholding case to Charter Court
The Election Commission is appointed on the advice of the Senate so no surprise in this appalling decision. It will soon be time for the fight for democracy to be taken to the streets.

Senator asks his peers to support Pita for PM
My gut feeling is a sufficient number of senators will abstain so Pita will be elected as Prime Minister.

Pheu Thai may face a terrible dilemma as outgoing government parties still aim for power in PM vote
So getting rid of 112 would be radical would it?

You're not paying attention. It is not solely M.P.'s that select the Prime Minister. It is them plus 250. appointed Senators.

Legal action threatened over Threads App
Funny I watched an interview of Musk a few months ago and he stated his companies do not take out patents or copyrights. Something about being all about free and open competition.

Wagner: The Russian state media attacks Prigozhin.
The longer this saga goes on the less sense it makes. If this guy really tried to do what has been reported there is zero chance a thug like Putin would not have dispensed with him by now. You cross Putin you dead or locked up before long.

NIDA poll shows that political conflict is still on the horizon as US envoy denies interference
I really do not think a prison camp falls under the original purposes. Much like the 2nd Amendment original intent

The USA spends >$80B annually on its intel agencies. They assure us that the bulk of that goes to do-gooder programs like the Peace Corps and such.

House speakership remains an open question despite Pheu Thai’s nomination of Wan Muhamad
His Wiki already has him as Speaker of the House so must be a done deal. Bone to the muslims?
