In an extremely rare moment of candour on Russian state TV today, defence columnist Mikhail Khodaryonok gave a damning assessment of Russia's war in Ukraine and his country's international isolation. It's fairly long but worth your time so I've added subtitles.

Remember when Mitch McConnell’s brother in law made a $26.8 million XPO Logistics purchase for his hedge fund when former XPO CEO DeJoy became Postmaster General—before the USPS paid hundreds of millions to XPO?
Today, the hedge fund reported XPO holdings of $48.49 million.

This, “...a surge in revenue for XPO from the Postal Service since Mr. DeJoy took over on June 15,” is interesting, because the hedge fund managed by Mitch McConnell’s brother in law made a $26.8 million XPO Logistics purchase between May and August.

This cannot stand.
Trump must concede.
If he doesn’t, the US needs to determine whether it’s sedition or treason.
We can’t keep ignoring it.

So this is crazy: I'm pretty plugged into the news, but until hearing today's Pod Save America, where they interviewed Brian Deese - director of Biden's economic council - I didn't know about the Affordable Connectivity Program the President just instituted. It's pretty cool.

OHIO: make this idiot famous.
It’s one of JR Vance’s fanboys.
He’s saying Ohio’s Ukranian natives don’t care about Ukraine.
Based upon R precinct primary numbers
Also, wrong on the geography.
This is why Vance is losing.

You know how few ppl in America care about Ukraine? JD Vance won the areas of Cleveland with the highest Ukrainian population.

Without federal protections, Ohio women could soon be denied the freedom to get an abortion altogether—even in cases of assault, incest, or medical emergency.
As SCOTUS prepares to overturn 50 years of precedent, we cannot accept defeat. I'll keep fighting to codify Roe v. Wade.

There’s very few “full-time farmers.” My dad worked at International Harvester and farmed, my mom was a bank teller. Then factories closed.
Farmers have “industrial park” jobs, if they can find them.
“Not quite enough to go around” is how I’d describe rural America today.

This is big. The US has released part of its first-ever investigation into its Indian boarding schools. They found:
From 1819-1969, 408 federal schools in 37 states
Marked or unmarked graveyards at 53 schools
Schools mostly focused on manual labor
