    America is sanctioning a russia that doesn’t exist (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Hours before his death, Lindsey Graham joked, “I can’t die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions.” Two months later, the bill bearing his name passed both chambers of Congress and landed on the President’s desk. The House approved it 262-159 after an 86-11 Senate vote, a level of bipartisan agreement that has all but disappeared.A recent Pew poll finds that two-thirds of Americans lack confidence in Trump’s handling of

    Manipulation by invitation: how russia became the victim of its own war (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    In July, run a guest essay by russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko, who keeps his wealth at putin’s pleasure, titled “Why a broken Russia is bad for the world.” His argument performs a familiar and sickening trick: Russia commits a crime of aggression, invades Ukraine, and somehow emerges as the aggrieved party while Ukraine becomes “a battlefield between Russia and the West.”How such a pernicious inversion m

    Schrödinger's putin: a tyrant who can and also cannot end his war (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Few medieval figures loom larger in Russia’s origin story than Yuriy Dolgorukiy, the prince credited with founding an outpost on the banks of the Moskva River from which the Russian empire eventually arose.But the man Moscow claims as one of its forefathers is buried not in Russia, but in Kyiv. His ambition was to rule Kyivan Rus from its true center – let the name be a hint. He died there as Grand Prince in 1157 and was laid to rest at the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, which Russia struck on June 15, se

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Russia’s war on Ukraine has yet to end because Russia keeps waging it.It is shocking, though regrettably unsurprising, that in the fifth summer since the 2022 escalation by the aggressor, and 12 years since Russia first invaded Ukraine, pundits, scholars, and unscrupulous politicians still offer “solutions” to resolve a “conflict,” pointing up and calling it down while ignoring basic facts and laundering the Kremlin’s lies in plain sight.To offer blood, sweat,

    Essential reading: open letter to The Economist (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    Last week, I wrote a letter to The Economist after the magazine published what I can only describe as a manipulation-by-invitation from a russian (read: putin’s) oligarch, Andrey Melnichenko. His essay (gift link) repackaged a collection of insidious kremlin lies as independent, if not sensational and worthy of our attention, geopolitical analysis. More troubling, however, was The Economist's decision to surround it wi
