BREAKING: The New Pope just emerged from the Vatican balcony on St. Peter's Square. Meet Pope Leo XIV of AMERICA -- Robert F. Prevost. He's a centrist with progressive views on social issues. Habemus Papam!

I already like this new American Pope.

An American pope who fights with JD Vance on Twitter? I am so in

I hope he uses his position to school the ass out of Trump on compassion, humility and respect. Trump has no idea what the elevation of the first America pope actually means. As soft American power fades, an American takes a role in an extraordinary position of soft power.

Yay!

“The blocking order is unconstitutional. It is an attack on press freedom and on the right of every Indian to access information. It must be lifted immediately.”

Right, so now Canada is a fascist country. How dare they give free, compulsory language lessons to immigrants. Fascism involves banning languages or foisting yours outside your territory or excluding other language services, not seeking to integrate incomers at the state's cost.

Could quite easily have been done without Nato, that's quite an irresponsible unfounded claim. They are all domestically produced drones. You are correct that's what Russian propaganda is saying.

The Ukrainians completely rewriting the SDR remotely by drone.... yikes

Good morning from Kyiv.

Puzzled by this - the investment in new nuclear warheads has no relationship with the ambition for 12 new attack submarines, so how can the second build upon the first? nuclear power plants, yes, submarine construction techniques for the new Trident boats, ditto. But warheads?
