The other issue is that, for a junta desperate for revenue, kicking out Barrick Gold would be a big blow that no Russian operator would be able to fill in any reasonable space of time. Of course, there may be other reasons to do it, but that's why I remain skeptical.

There wasn’t a mass murdering fascist in the hemisphere that Elliott Abrams didn’t love — and he was in charge of “human rights” under Ronald Reagan.

I don't know if Chadian opposition media reports of a Russian deployment to N'Djamena are true or not, but Chad isn't CAR and Déby would be kidding himself if he thinks a Russian deployment is adequate regime protection.

Can’t stress enough the JNIM is playing multiple levels of politics with this incident. Demonstrating government (and Wagner) inadequacy in an area they’ve been active, and also showing the benefits of local accords w/JNIM by releasing hostages from villages that signed them.

This is exactly the kind of Cold War attitude that got us kicked out of Niger in the first place (not "without reason"), and it's deeply self-defeating. We had no business deploying troops there, and regional well-wishers should be happy they're leaving.

Columbia student journos at @WKCRFM doing incredible job under technical, physical and emotional pressure
"Who is going to document this if they are not going to let us stay?" -- NYPD forcing WKCR reporters out of Hamilton Hall
ccny campus magazine livestream is genuinely incredible, they’re reading out police badge numbers + names and getting people in the chat to search complaints filed against them, then reading the complaints back out loud to the cops 😭
What happened at Columbia was reprehensible, but it’s STILL HAPPENING at CCNY and they are looking for legal observers and support if you can make it uptown!
Even more intense than Columbia by all accounts. This is citywide repression.
Friends, please, please amplify. The NYPD are now raiding City College. Reports are hundreds of cops. Please, I know that what happened at Columbia tonight is sickening--but this is Part II. And our @CUNY students are largely working class students of color.
Listening to @WKCRFM right now and it’s unbelievable, they are reporting live while being repressed by the cops who are being extremely brutal with student protesters, sledgehammers and teargas witnessed. If you’re not able to make it to Columbia campus tune in 📻
Columbia's student radio station, @WKCRFM, deserves a broadcast journalism prize for its live coverage of the impending police raid of the campus.
Actually it’s Democrats that are hiding behind zip ties and assault rifles. All these kids are so much braver than any of these cowards.
Putting ideologies momentarily aside, one major difference between the far right and far left is that the far right is like, "We've got zip ties and assault rifles" and the far left is like, "We forgot to bring snacks."
Professor Steve Tamari is a historian of the early modern Middle East. He is a Palestinian Quaker from Jaffa and Little Rock. I look forward to a statement from the American Historical Association.
Shocking footage shows several officers at Washington University St. Louis beating a professor, slamming him, and dragging his limp body. SIUE history professor Steve Tamari is reportedly hospitalized with broken ribs and a broken hand. One doctor told him he's lucky to be alive.
A doddering President who thinks Israel can do no wrong, a corrupt charlatan cop mayor, an out of touch neoliberal university administrator...it took the whole Democratic coalition coming together to make this moment happen
if you don’t allow legal observers you are absolutely planning on doing something you shouldn’t. period.
If you want to learn more about the political and economic effects of Ferengi entente with the Federation....... 😉 #TrekTuesday (archiveofourown.org/works/53015815)
Ferengi decided they had to accelerate their timetable for opening up Federation markets for exploration which limited a full FCA audit and risk analysis, some later felt this meant they were not ready for the cultural contamination and ultimate liberalisation of Ferenginar
Something beyond campus vibes maybe worth covering? haaretz.com/israel-news/20…
Nemat Shafik's instincts as president of Columbia are basically those of the police-state: conduct video surveillance of students, threaten them, and the lock down the campus, even keeping faculty out. Destroy the village in order to save it.

Municipalize Columbia. Turn it into an adjunct campus of CCNY CUNY. Seize the endowment for universal pre-k, from birth.
In response, @Columbia has fully locked down campus. We can’t get in to offices, students can’t get in to take exams. It’s clear that Columbia’s own measures are doing the most to disrupt student life right now.
Universities are asset-holding/management firms first, businesses serving educational consumers second, and knowledge institutions a distant third. Whether that’s how it should be is an open question, but that’s how it is
I would add to this just a small thing, that part of the reason for support on both sides is because Russian thinking itself is split between those who value UAE over Egypt and vice versa
