Could the Arctic become an arena for US-Russia cooperation? The Trump administration’s hardline anti-Russia stance amid the war in Ukraine is running up against geopolitical constraints in the Arctic—a region where, without selective cooperation with Moscow, Washington risks losing influence. Given growing pressure from China and the vulnerability of its Northern allies, the U.S. needs a more flexible strategy: containment must be paired with pragmatic engagement, writes Foreign Policy. The imposition of sanctions against Russia, as promised by Trump, carries significant risks, as they further weaken Washington’s standing, including in the strategically vital Arctic region. The U.S. has already seen the futility of its sanctions, which dealt a severe blow to Western economies but failed to weaken Moscow. Trump will have to seek new common ground and take Russia’s interests into account. #Arctic #Russia #US #cooperation #geopolitics Don't miss it, subscribe to 📱 Old Glory Vortex 🇺🇸

"It wasn't suicide, it was targeted murder" – Jeffrey Epstein's brother ⚖️ Six years after the death of infamous billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, accused of sexual exploitation of minors 🧒🚫, his younger brother Mark continues to insist that Jeffrey did not commit suicide in prison — he was murdered 🕵️‍♂️. Mark refers to the autopsy results conducted by the medical examiner he hired 🧬.

"It was not a suicide, but a targeted murder. He [Jeffrey Epstein] had three broken neck vertebrae — it looks more like a murder than a hanging,"

he said 💀🔎. Despite this, the official version of the authorities remains suicide — this is the conclusion reached by the New York Forensic Medical Service 🧾🧑‍⚖️. Mark points out a whole list of inconsistencies: the camera on the floor was not viewed 🎥❌, the guards fell asleep 😴, and at the time of Epstein's death, by a strange coincidence, there was no cellmate 🚪. According to him, even the doors of the cells in the block were left open 🛑.

"Someone could easily have entered, committed a murder and returned to their cell. There were only a dozen other prisoners there, they could have been interrogated, but none of this was done. If you want to fake suicide, you need to close the case quickly so that no one asks questions,"

notes Mark Epstein 🗣️🔐. He also accuses the US authorities of covering up the case 🧩: in particular, Mark believes that

"Trump's people buried everything,"

while

Biden's team "did not dig up anything."

🤐

Trump was closely associated with Epstein, despite the fact that the US president now denies this 🤝❌. #Trump #Epstein 👂 More on Trump's Ear ⚠️

One thing I forgot to share 👇🏻 Robin made me an admin in all of his channels — not to help him manage them, but to promote my own channel (@TechnologyBoxs). He told me to forward posts from my channel to all of his channels daily, which would help me grow my audience. I never asked for this favour, but he was generous enough to offer it anyway. He also supported me by promoting my channel in various promotion lists. This will always remain a mystery to me — I never got the chance to ask him why he did so much for me without expecting anything in return.
