[…] “Any other president of the United States would have recognised the mistake and apologise for what happened,” Panetta remarked. “He doesn’t do that. It sends an image of America that kind of fits the ugly American image that a lot of people once had of this country.”

#Panetta concludes that #Trump's handling of the situation, including his response to civilian “casualties,” (massacre) projects an unfavorable image of America (USA really) and undermines international confidence… 🙄 I might be naive but bombing schools is a war crime which demands accountability, not reputation management.

"Il #RearmEu da 800 miliardi “si basa su fondi nazionali e prestiti, anziché su spese europee e trasferimenti finanziati con risorse comuni. Questo approccio rischia di accrescere le disuguaglianze tra Paesi e ridurre l’efficacia della spesa”. Serve invece “un programma unitario, sostenuto da debito europeo”, perché “a livello nazionale gli investimenti per crescita e spesa sociale non vanno penalizzati dallo sforzo per la sicurezza esterna”. E comunque “la promozione della cooperazione internazionale e della pace deve restare il cardine dell’azione europea”"

At yesterday’s Vision Zero meeting for Monterey County, the challenges of Salinas Road were among topics discussed. In fact, on Wednesday, a Watsonville resident traveling by bike was going north on the shoulder of Salinas Road when he attempted to make a left turn and was hit by a GMC Yukon. The Yukon’s driver fled the scene. Good Samaritans assisted the injured bike commuter. Thank you to law enforcement; the driver has been arrested and faces felony #HitAndRun charges.

#SFBA remind #Congress member #RoKhanna of his priorities. He actually missed a vote to #subpoena #Musk and stop the #coup leveraged by #DOGE.

Copied here is a post from #BlueSky where Khanna posts.

He is literally my representative in #SanJose and #SiliconValley. I can’t even begin to tell you how disappointing, frustrating, and outrageous it is to get this news.
Our local #economy, #California, and #America are on the line… and he missed it?? #Khanna #Pelosi, #Lofgren, #Liccardo, #Panetta et al. Get going! Contact your representatives!

Former CIA director #Leon #Panetta said that Russian President Vladimir
🔥Putin views former President Donald Trump as a "source" that he can use to his benefit.

Appearing on the One Decision podcast, Panetta discussed allegations in journalist Bob Woodward's new book War that Trump and Putin had as many as seven private phone calls since early 2021, after Trump left office.

Panetta said that it would be "very unusual" for the Russian president to be engaged in communication with a former head of the United States.

He added that 💥Putin "knows how to work a source, and he's got a source that is very near the top in this country, he, himself is going to engage that source."

⚠️"That really is what the bottom line is — is that Trump has turned into a source for Putin, and somebody who can help him manipulate what he wants to get done," Panetta said.

Panetta, who was the director of the CIA between 2009 and 2011, said that it would be concerning if the pair remained in private communication.

🆘"The mere fact that a former president of the United States is having regular conversation with our primary adversary raises real questions about where is his basic loyalty. Is it really to the United States of America? Or is it to Donald Trump?" he said.
