Sir Patrick Stewart would be horrified to see the Star Wars franchise in which he starred getting appropriated for political purposes

Whoa
Yesterday, Putin revealed that Russian authorities are "in close touch" with Elon Musk about the technology Ukraine needs to defend itself. Our new report @TheAtlantic investigates how @elonmusk went from supporting Ukraine to coordinating with Moscow. theatlantic.com/national-sec…

Would be great if I could watch it without an endless carousel of advertisements you flogs @kayosports
A lead of 💯 on the dot for Australia thanks to Josh Inglis' century and three other scores above 50! But will it be enough with the Aussies needing to bat last? LATEST >> foxsports.com.au/06d0d0e8249…

WTF @kayosports? I’m turning on the #SAvAus #cricket and after five seconds or less I get literally ten ads in a row, in the middle of an over. Anyone else getting this? Frustrating!

Overlooked here: Russia apparently has access to his phone while he is trying to negotiate peace between Russia and Ukraine. Can’t wait to read this Ping: @edels0n I’m sure you’re all over this already on @ProfGMarkets
Aside from the shocking substance of this story, what's amazing is how it was unearthed by Cole. The short version: The Russians were able to penetrate Jared Kushner's iPhone and extract screenshots and data. Then, a Russian intel official was captured by Dutch intelligence (!) and flipped. The Dutch believed Kushner may have been acting on behalf of Russia, so pursued him as an intel target and were able to get into his phone. They did not find any evidence of Russian collusion, instead they watched him moving hundreds of millions of dollars from slush funds created by Saudi Arabia and the UAE, one of them housed in Israel's central bank. Incredible reporting, and if Democrats have any sense, they will pull on these threads and learn a lot more about this money.

#Perth should be drawing on this metric to attract young talent to build startups (and therefore job creation) here, and diversify our economy
Where to make money and come back home able to start your business or start compounding by investing. Yes, the US and Switzerland are "expensive" in terms of cost of life but many underestimate how much money you can sill make and set aside. In many other places simply you can't set aside and you never start investing.

Ping @ezraklein @DKThomp, Example No 6942069 of governments needing to read your book
California hasn't built its bullet train because the state has required 130,000 pages of environmental reports, making absurd demands like: • counting bumblebees one by one • rebuilding woodrat stick huts • hiring specialized dogs to sniff lizard scat

Gutsy effort by the boys as the game ends in a draw. Next up is SA beginning on the 28th of October.

Huge effort to hang on by Curtis and injured Paris in the shield and salvage a draw. Kudos @WACA_Cricket

Hot take… SA should declare. They need to take 20 wickets to win the test. Should gamble on rolling Aus for <200 in the first innings and setting Aus a target #SAvAUS @abcsport @CorbinMiddlemas @beastieboy07
