@mariafarrell.eurosky.socialReposted by @djgalbreath.bsky.socialFor anyone who's not caught up, the US government pressured the EU and governments of Lithuania + Canada to disavow a conference on disinfo because of a panel about US disinfo and interference in Europe (whose panellists were all Americans!).
Only the French govt left standing.
@eliothiggins.bsky.socialReposted by @djgalbreath.bsky.socialIn fairness to Russia, when they complain to states, countries don't pull out of supporting counterdisinformation conferences, so maybe "after Russia" isn't 100% accurate.
@eliothiggins.bsky.socialReposted by @djgalbreath.bsky.socialI also think discourse around disinformation keeps falling into the trap of treating it as a supply side issue, rather than examining the demand side and what to do about that. That is a far more pressing, and far more complicated, problem.

We did this dance once already. 2) If you think he's going to build his arch and cover it with drones in two years, I have a ballroom to show you. Why? The East Wing was demolished 11 months ago. Tada!

@wartranslated.bsky.socialReposted by @djgalbreath.bsky.socialA Russian is driving around ranting at Ukrainians, blaming them for the alleged nationwide gasoline shortage. It seems the cause-and-effect link still hasn’t formed.
@acyn.bsky.socialReposted by @djgalbreath.bsky.socialCorn: Trump wants to rule like Putin, and he wants to do deals with Putin. The war in Ukraine is just a nuisance for him that gets in the way. He doesn’t care about protecting Ukrainian democracy or the Ukrainian population. He wants this war over with so he and Putin can stride the world together
@shaunpinner.bsky.socialReposted by @djgalbreath.bsky.socialThe Armed Forces of Ukraine are advancing inside Luhansk Oblast. Even Russian military maps now acknowledge Ukrainian-controlled territory there. Russia does not fully control a single one of the four Ukrainian oblasts Putin illegally claims as Russian territory.
