@havethelastward I do not agree with his recommendations but I believe he’s well sourced. In any event, Biden himself already said we’re facing the prospect of Armageddon so of course it’s true. — PolitiTweet.org

Former defense secretary & CIA director Leon Panetta cites intelligence analysts who believe the probability of nuclear weapons use in Ukraine has risen from 1-5% at the start of the war to 20-25% today. https://t.co/I9og7Rx6Xo — PolitiTweet.org

@AriDavidPaul @mattysino Look up Azov Battalion. Neonazis in the US weren’t allowed to form their own battalion in the military. This was widely understood as concerning before the war. https://t.co/afr5G6tyfJ — PolitiTweet.org

@AriDavidPaul @mattysino Just because you sympathize with Ukraine doesn’t mean you should whitewash the neo-Nazi problem (I assume innocently and with good intentions). Again, I’m not saying it justifies the invasion, but Ukraine has a history that continues into present day. https://t.co/mOgwOYCXtw — PolitiTweet.org

Any politician who would sacrifice the security of the United States of America for a country that’s not even a treaty ally violates their oath of office. — PolitiTweet.org

From a virtue-signaling perspective, advocating for greater escalation is the smart play. If WWIII actually happens, there will be no one left to call you out as an irresponsible fool. Until then, you win the purity game. — PolitiTweet.org

The United States/NATO should not attack Russia unless Russia attacks the US/NATO. Period. End of story. — PolitiTweet.org

It wasn’t a “mistake.” It’s the continuation of a deliberate policy that began years ago. I wrote about this for @bariweiss in July 2021: https://t.co/E648XOKat1 — PolitiTweet.org

The definition of “war fever” is when the President admits we’re at the brink of nuclear “Armageddon,” yet neither he nor the leaders of the opposing party nor the media or foreign policy elite can reassess the policies that got us here. — PolitiTweet.org

David Sacks @DavidSacks

@OchoSpecko @GirkeHanjo This is an “opposition research” approach where you take bits and pieces out of context to orchestrate a political hit. It is not intellectually honest. Go back and watch the 2015 lecture and judge based on the gist of it (not minor details). — PolitiTweet.org

David Sacks @DavidSacks

@GirkeHanjo In IR, the standout who’s been “contrarian and right” for decades on the biggest questions (China, Iraq, Ukraine) is Mearsheimer. Cue the usual attacks. But understand that the reason he’s attacked is not because he’s wrong but because he’s right. — PolitiTweet.org

David Sacks @DavidSacks

This is especially true in a field like international relations where (1) US policy has been a disaster over the last two decades, but (2) was widely supported by the foreign policy elite. If judged by track record, therefore, only the contrarians have any shot at being expert. — PolitiTweet.org

David Sacks @DavidSacks

The problem with deferring to a class of experts is that there are only a handful of outliers in any field; the vast majority are mediocre and suffer from groupthink. Invariably, when you are told to defer to experts, it means the mediocre middle, not the true standouts. — PolitiTweet.org
