"There are also people who throw up their hands and say things like, Well, I voted for Kamala Harris, so this is what y’all get. They’ll make her into this amazing sagely presidential candidate who, if we had just put all our faith in her and let her lead and be the best Black woman she could have been, then we wouldn’t be in this situation. But that’s just a complete separation from reality."

In 2022 on my podcast I had my buddy Romeo Kokriatski on. For those who dk, he's the co-host of the Ukraine Without Hype podcast, which is a must listen for English-language updates on Ukraine.

In our first or second chat on #TheFireTheseTimes I said that my fear for Ukraine is not Ukrainians' resolve, but Europeans' cynicism.

Germany led the way on that, effectively making it harder for Ukraine to defend itself for a long time.

"Justin Salhani is joined by #YasserElsheshtawy to talk about the Dubaization plan that #Netanyahu’s team put forward for #Gaza after their genocide. You won’t be surprised to know that we think it’s a terrible plan, but what is #dubaization?"
