Q: Is Jensen Huang coming with you on your trip to Asia? Trump: I’d certainly take him. I haven’t heard he’s done anything wrong. He dealt with somebody but so does everybody else.

As an Australian citizen I support & honour your wife & the Italian & Estonian Ambassadors wives’ decision to withdraw from the WIC due to the admittance of the Russian Ambassador’s wife. In light of Russia’s ongoing genocide against Ukraine - all respect to these women✊

This isn’t simply ignorance. This is deep corruption. Every single ambassador of russia to any country is a regime-loyal spy - you do not get such a position if you are not. No activity of such a person or their spouse is random, it all serves the interests of the russian regime.

There is a disturbing new development in the story surrounding the Women’s International Club in Canberra. Following the decision to admit Irina Petrakova, wife of the Russian Ambassador, three members of the diplomatic community, the wives of the Ambassadors of Ukraine, Italy and Estonia, chose to withdraw from the Club in protest. My wife, Liana, was among them. At the Club’s recent Annual General Meeting, its President, Sandie Kaine, referred to the three women as “bigots”. I am particularly appalled by this development given the extraordinary solidarity and support that Australia and the Australian people have shown Ukraine throughout Russia’s full-scale invasion, including among the WIC’s members. Such a dismissive attitude of the President of the Club towards the personal pain and principled position of those directly affected by this war is deeply disappointing. Let me be very clear: refusing to socialise with a representative of Russia, which is waging a genocidal war against Ukraine is not bigotry. It is a matter of conscience, dignity and solidarity with the victims of that aggression.

What disgraceful behavior to accuse the wife of the Ukrainian ambassador of bigotry just because she doesn't want to belong to the same club as the wife of the Russian ambassador, while Russia tears Ukraine apart, murdering people daily. Again, ​she is not the wife of an ordinary citizen, she is the wife of an official representative of a murderous regime currently invading us! Shame.

Q: NVidia is investigating Jensen Huang‘s relationship with Chinese spy. Do you wish you acted on the intelligence when you were briefed? Trump: No. I don’t think so. I think he probably has an excuse for it. Q: Should he stay on as CEO? Trump: Yeah

Trump knows that he himself has done much worse, so he doesn't think having a secret affair with a Chinese spy is a big deal at all.

That’s the Trump approach to governing: intelligence concerns, human-rights abuses, national security risks—whatever the problem, find an excuse, dismiss the concern and move on. He treats the responsibilities of the presidency as optional and the consequences as someone else’s problem.

There is nothing a wealthy CEO, autocrat or dictator can do which will cause Trump to condemn them. This buffoon has wrecked our national security and set our country back years.

UPDATE: Trump says he doesn’t care that Nvidia’s CEO was sleeping with a Chinese spy while getting him to let them circumvent A.i. Chip laws to sell chips to China (Because he bought their stock and made millions himself)

There's a lot going on, from ballots still being counted to Miller as COS to Hegseth's impeachment. But the Trump-Huang scandal is exploding. I suspect it will likely soon be THE big story. Sen. Warner and Rep. Himes ought to insist on briefings and hearings in Congress now.

Trump, who has almost $100 million invested in gas & oil, is caught illegally canceling a billion-dollar solar project that would have helped lower utility bills across the country. futurism.com/science-energy/…

Mr Mélenchon, Ukrainians have already settled the question of their country's borders. In the 1991 national referendum, more than 90% of voters backed Ukraine's independence within its current, internationally recognised borders. A majority voted "yes" in every region, including Donbas (83%). Only Russia chose to disregard the choice of Ukrainians and change borders by force, launching a war of aggression. Putin refuses to end the war despite constructive proposals from Ukraine and its partners, and this is the only reason the war is still going on. "Referendums" under occupation are a tool of annexation, not an expression of the people's will. No civilised, democratic country would ever accept this for its own borders, so it should not be proposed to Ukrainians.
Nous entrerons franchement dans le règlement de l'invasion russe de l'Ukraine. Nous, Français, ne pouvons jamais accepter que l'on envahisse son voisin ! Nous refusons que la discussion sur la paix en Ukraine soit menée sans les représentants des nations d'Europe. Nous n'acceptons pas qu'on ait abandonné l'exigence de garanties mutuelles de sécurité, non seulement entre l'Ukraine et la Russie, mais entre toutes les nations d'Europe, la nôtre incluse, et la Russie. Nous n'acceptons pas qu'on envisage une paix avec des concessions territoriales en Ukraine, sans qu'on demande aux populations concernées si elles sont d'accord pour se trouver de ce côté-ci de la frontière ou de l'autre. C'est au peuple de décider lui-même de ce qu'il veut.

The channels you indicate are in Spanish, which covers the whole of Latin America, where Telegram has a strong footprint. Not in Spain, where X, TikTok, and Facebook are more dominant. A quick question: Do you speak Spanish, or do you use AI tools?
Russia’s informational interference occurs ahead of elections in Europe. Two issues matter in Spain: - Telegram is not very popular; - Polarisation is not imported. Voters will either punish for crisis scandals (Ceuta, train accidents) or back the left-driven housing policy.

54,737 posts across five platforms is a serious sample — did the three layers move in the same time windows, or did Telegram lead and X/Facebook follow? A Moscow-run hub fronted by a Spanish political scientist is what turns this from a bot story into a human-network story.
