Day 477: war diaries w/Former Advisor to Ukraine President, Intel Officer @arestovych & #Feygin

Politics
There is a lot of pro-Putin bias in the Western world. We aim to dispel this “macho” propaganda and reveal true colors of his regime: murder, intimidation, industrialized kleptocracy and well-funded russian fascism propaganda machines. We were born in Russia, we have lost friends to this murderer… we see how he “zombifies” most and intimidates and beats down the rest. We also know where his weak spots are and what atrocities his regime is committing on a daily basis. Message from the source channel owner.

Statement by NSC Spokesperson Adam Hodge Welcoming the Visit of Amir Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad al-Thani of Qatar to Baghdad

Politics
We welcome the visit of Amir Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad al-Thani to Baghdad on June 15. The United States fully supports Iraq’s sovereignty, independence, and increasing integration into the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and broader Arab region. This includes Iraq’s movement over the last year toward energy self-sufficiency through steps to connect its energy grid to the GCC’s and Jordan’s grids. Both of these infrastructure projects were components of President Biden’s visit to the Middle East last year, and are now being achieved with active U.S. facilitation and support.

Statement from President Biden on Justice Department Findings on the Minneapolis Police Department

Politics
This afternoon, I was briefed by my team on the Department of Justice’s independent findings of unconstitutional practices of the Minneapolis Police Department. The findings are disturbing and underscore the urgent need for Congress to pass common sense reforms that increase public trust, combat racial discrimination and thereby strengthen public safety. Since I took office, the Department of Justice has also taken independent and aggressive action to ensure accountability for systemic misconduct and by police departments at the local level. The vast majority of Americans want the same thing: trust, safety, accountability. Any police officer will tell you that public trust…
