Edition No158 | 12-06-2025 - Russia's war against Ukraine has achieved not only a horrifying milestone, but an extraordinary conjunction of symbolic dates and numbers. On the Russian National Day public holiday, the grim figure of one million Russians lost in Putin's senseless war has been reached. We'll get into the casualty numbers, and their potential implications in a minute. First though, we need to reflect on the obscene act of sycophancy just unleashed by Mr. Rubio on 12th June. In an announcement, he wrote to congratulate the Russia people, on Russia Day. He is the first US Secretary of State to do so since the beginning of the full-scale war. He wrote, “The United States remains committed to supporting the Russian people as they continue to build on their aspirations for a brighter future.” Pause. Memes have not inaccurately compared this to an imaginary scenario where FDR congratulates the NAZI regime on Hitler's birthday, 18 April 1941, which was a public holiday in Germany. “We also take this opportunity to reaffirm the United States' desire for constructive engagement with the Russian Federation to bring about a durable peace between Russia and Ukraine. It is our hope that peace will foster more mutually beneficial relations between our countries.”----------Links: https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2067608/ukraine-live-russia-day-troop-losseshttps://kyivindependent.com/as-russian-losses-in-ukraine-hit-1-million-putin-faces-an-economic-time-bomb/https://www.president.gov.ua/en/news/sogodni-nashi-vijskovi-zafiksuvali-ponad-miljon-rosijskih-vt-98417https://euromaidanpress.com/2025/06/12/russia-loses-one-million-soldiers-moscows-casualties-reach-seven-figures-ukraine-says/ ----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

The full toll is not known, but four people have been reported injured in Kyiv, according to local authorities. In the southern city of Odesa two men were killed and at least eight civilians were wounded. One more person suffered shock. Again, this may not be the final toll. Zelensky proclaimed this one of the largest attacks on Kyiv to date, and few people would have slept through though the intense bombardment that lasted several hours. "Russian missiles and Shahed drones strike out the efforts of the United States and others around the world to force Russia into peace," he wrote on X. "For yet another night, instead of a ceasefire, there were massive strikes with Shahed drones, cruise and ballistic missiles."----------Links: https://kyivindependent.com/waves-of-explosions-rock-kyiv-amid-russian-missile-drone-attack/https://kyivindependent.com/trump-redirects-20-000-anti-drone-missiles-meant-for-ukraine-zelensky-confirms/ ----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Edition No155 | 08-06-2025 - Russia has a fascist ideology. It may be incoherent when it comes to doctrinal details, but it is clear on one thing. If you are part of the democratic world, it intends to destroy you. Russian propagandists and ideologies are clear on this point at least. It's time to face this ideology for what it really is: aggressive, intolerant, extreme, calculated, premeditated and completely nihilistic. Modern Russian fascism is built for export, and is fundamentally opposed to the democratic world, its culture, values and its institutions. In this episode we'll look at an interview given for Le Grand Continent, a respected European journal of geopolitical analysis published by the GEG - Groupe d'Études Géopolitiques, a think tank affiliated with the prestigious École Normale Supérieure in Paris. They published a deeply disturbing conversation with Sergei Karaganov, one of the Kremlin's most influential ideologues and a longtime advisor to Vladimir Putin.----------Links: https://legrandcontinent.eu/fr/2025/06/07/entretien-avec-serguei-karaganov-larchitecte-de-la-geopolitique-de-poutine/https://substack.com/@statedept/p-164571608----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Edition No153 | 06-06-2025 - Steve Bannon has launched an attack on Elon Musk, with absolute glee and viscous energy. “We're going to go to f—ing war,” he exclaimed, following the feud between President Trump and the tech billionaire and world's richest man. “The president treated him almost like a son. He invited his family to Christmas dinner. He let him sleep over. He let him walk in and out of meetings,” Bannon said. He's been a long-time Musk sceptic, and he sees the chance to really stick the knife in and twist it around. In an interview with Politico published late Thursday he said. “The president went to the max informality to welcome this guy.”So far so reasonable. But then Bannon really let's rip: “You're going to tell me we should allow some fucking punk to sit there and say Trump should be impeached and [VP] JD [Vance] should step in? F— you, dude,” the “War Room” podcast host intensified his attack. “We're going to go to f—ing war, and I'm going to rip your f—ing face off.” ----------Links: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2025/06/05/steve-bannon-trump-musk-rachael-bade-00391135https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/trump-elon-musk-feud/card/steve-bannon-urges-trump-to-seize-spacex-and-deport-elon-musk-7GV6PBKSIhqveB3VeYKXhttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2025/jun/06/donald-trump-elon-musk-feud-steve-bannon-jeffery-epstein-us-politics-live-news-updateshttps://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5336511-steve-bannon-elon-musk-donald-trump-feud/https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cyvm2181lqvt----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Edition No151 | 05-06-2025 - Trump is apparently annoyed with both Putin and Zelenskyy, according to aides, but his approbation and ire is especially reserved for Zelenskyy, who Trump is said to consider “a bad guy”, “who will lead the world to the brink of nuclear war.” This is a narrative likely planted in his head by Vladimir Putin, who has once again apparently exerted an extraordinary amount of influence over Trump's words and action, after ‘another' of their infamous phone calls. This special hostility of Trump towards Zelenskyy likely has many origins. But envy of Ukrainian President's clear leadership qualities and charisma, his authority among other world leaders, and refusal to abandon his truth for the expediency of sucking up to Trump play a role. We must not lose sight in the face of Trump's comments, or the iniquitous both siding that some of the media falls into, that Ukraine is in face the defender, the victim and Russia the aggressor. Ukraine attacks military targets, sometimes the very equipment used to deliver death and destruction to Ukrainian cities, and Russians mostly choose to hit civilian targets.----------Links: https://kyivindependent.com/putin-casts-doubt-on-peace-talks-accuses-ukraine-of-deadly-bridge-attack-in-russia/https://kyivindependent.com/trump-urges-senate-to-postpone-vote-on-russia-sanctions-bill/https://kyivindependent.com/ukraine-strike-on-russian-bombers-could-escalate-war-kellogg-says/https://kyivindependent.com/for-the-first-time-pentagon-chief-to-skip-ramstein-format-meeting-of-ukraines-allies/https://kyivindependent.com/trump-administration-redirecting-anti-drone-tech-from-ukraine-to-us-forces-in-middle-east-wsj-reports/https://kyivindependent.com/russia-launches-over-48-000-aerial-attacks-in-6-months-zelensky-says/----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Edition No150 | 03-06-2025 - We'll come to the extraordinary strike on the Kerch Bridge in a minute, but there has also been significant development in the so-called peace process. Or rather the mask has slipped, and Russia's true purpose in engaging in the Istanbul process has been made abundantly clear by vodka-soaked political thug, Medvedev, Russia's former one-term president. Russia has a talent for undermining its own cause and position. Just as Ukraine's daring attacks may have led to it being blamed for ‘sabotaging' the so-called peace talks, Russia ruins what could have been an effective political propaganda campaign. Former President and Prime Minister of Russia, Dmitri Medvedev says the quiet part out loud, that Russia seeks victory, not compromise, in the talks with Ukraine. Medvedev, known for his incendiary and fascistic, genocidal outbursts on Twitter, said on Tuesday that the point of holding peace talks with Ukraine was to ensure a swift and complete Russian victory."The Istanbul talks are not for striking a compromise peace on someone else's delusional terms but for ensuring our swift victory and the complete destruction of the neo-Nazi regime," Medvedev, the deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council said on Telegram. ----------Links: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/medvedev-says-russia-seeks-victory-not-compromise-talks-with-ukraine-2025-06-03/https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2025/06/3/7515358/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/03/ukraine-hits-bridge-linking-crimea-to-russia-with-underwater-explosiveshttps://kyivindependent.com/breaking-ukraines-sbu-strikes-crimean-bridge-in-underwater-attack/https://kyivindependent.com/operation-spiderweb-everything-we-know-about-ukraines-audacious-attack-on-russias-heavy-bombers/----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Edition No149 | 03-06-2025 - Finland is ‘preparing for the worst' as Russia expands military presence near border. Finland has said it expects Russia to further build up troops along their shared border when the war in Ukraine ends, after reports that Moscow had strengthened its military bases near the NATO frontier. Head of strategy of Finnish defense forces says they are monitoring Moscow's maneuvering ‘very closely'. Of all countries in Europe, Finland seems to have the healthiest dose of cynicism towards Russia and its long-term historical intentions. Dealing with Russia from a position of strength and unity is Finland's skill, making the best of a tough geographic situation, while preparing for the worst. This preparedness, resilience and unity of purpose is something Western Europe ought to pay more attention to and seek to emulate. ----------Links: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/21/finland-expects-russia-to-build-up-troops-at-border-after-ukraine-war-endshttps://kyivindependent.com/finland-to-send-ammunition-to-ukraine-using-proceeds-from-frozen-russian-assets/https://english.nv.ua/nation/trump-downplays-russian-military-buildup-near-finland-and-norway-calls-both-nations-safe-50515719.html----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Hey CEO- Do you think that in order to double your income, you need to double your hours? So many business owners still have traces of an employee mindset from when you used to trade time for money and think that's how things work in entrepreneurship…but it doesn't...at least not if you're a savvy + strategic CEO. Cuz CEOs know that it's not about making decisions to do more, but challenging your thoughts around what it takes to increase your income. That's why I've invited my friend Michelle Vroom, who built a successful business as a busy mom with young kiddos, to have a conversation around what it takes to scale your income…in less time. Michelle Vroom is a business coach with nearly 20 years of marketing & public relations experience with nonprofits, agencies, and big corporations.

They are a true and authentic reflection of the personal experience of the host. Please speak to a healthcare professional before making any changes to your diabetes management, or if you feel you could benefit from emotional support. This is part two of a two part series looking at hybrid closed loop insulin pumps. The first part is a technical overview, so be sure to start there!Ok it's time to get personal about all things hybrid closed loop! At first glance it might not seem like an obvious topic - to talk about the emotional impact of using an automated insulin delivery (AID) system to manage type 1 diabetes... it's technology, right? A gadget? A means to an end?But that ‘means' is a system that has, for me, taken away so much of the wight and number of diabetes decisions, and that ‘end' is not only better health outcomes, but a brighter, happier, calmer human who is better equipped to tackle life in all of its forms - being able to focus at work, spend time with family, or head off on the next adventure.It's not a cure, it's not a magic solution, but it is space between my thoughts, time between my alarms and a version of myself that I'd only ever caught glimpses of in my 28 years of living with type 1 diabetes. In this episode we get reallllly into my journey with type 1 diabetes tools - from injections and finger pricks, to moving onto a ‘regular' pump, and then my most recent switch to hybrid closed loop and the way it has turned down the volume on a lot of the diabetes noise, allowing me to sleep better, live more and just feel more human.So if you're curious about what these gadgets can do for your life, this is the episode for you.Disclaimer: I use the Omnipod 5 insulin pump with the Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor as my personal AID system.

What's a hybrid closed loop system? How does Automated Insulin Delivery actually work? Why is everyone talking about it? Is it really as good as everyone says for people with type 1 diabetes? What does artificial pancreas mean?These are the questions I'm hoping to help you with in today's solo episode! This is the first of a two part series digging into my experience of using an automated insulin delivery (AID) system, also known as a hybrid closed loop system, after 18 years on multiple daily injections and nine years on a ‘regular' insulin pump.I chat about the features and functionality of an AID system, specifically the Omnipod 5 with the Dexcom G6 as that's the setup I use and the only setup I have experience of. We cover what the three parts of the system are, how they interact with each other, how I interact with them and how I use the tool in the best way I understand to achieve improved time in range while doing a whole lot less diabetes business.In part two I'll cover the more emotional and psychosocial insights I've been able to gather from using the system after 28 years of living with type 1 diabetes.

‘Stop looking for yes and no answers, and start trying to see the nuance. Pay attention to you and knowing yourself.'Tony Coffey, also known as @trainbloom to his 400,000 instagram followers, is a personal trainer and co-host of the Fitness Stuff (For Normal People) podcast living in San Diego, California. When he's not at Chipotle, Tony dedicates his time to combatting the mountain of fitness and nutrition misinformation out there with his no nonsense, informative and very funny evidence-based videos online.Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes through primary care as a college freshman, it was very much suggested that diabetes would be a defining part of his identity. Already a fitness enthusiast, Tony's diagnosis cemented his professional path, and he has used himself as his own science experiment ever since to defy the definition of diabetes he was given at the age of 19.‘You're going to go through some crappy, crappy days,' he says of taking responsibility for your own condition. ‘But once you get a handle on it, I don't know that anything else could build your confidence as much as type 1 diabetes does. All of the other problems in your life start to seem quite small, and it's stuff no-one else in my life has had to deal with.' In this episode we chat about diet, nutrition, taking on and standing out in the fitness industry, and stepping back from the frustrating moments of life with type 1 diabetes. As data driven and research focused as they come, Tony reveals the single easiest thing you can do to help your blood sugar management (and it's NOT running marathons or becoming a bodybuilder), as well as what Tony thinks of the rising popularity of glucose sensors for those who aren't living with diabetes.
