Monday marked the 35th Anniversary of Ukrainian Independence from the Soviet Union, and despite the split between the two countries in 1991, Russia is once again trying to exert military might against Ukraine, with the current stage in the conflict having been ongoing since February 2022. Despite four years of war, the conflict shows no sign of stopping, with traders on Polymarket giving the chance of peace talks between Moscow and Kyiv before the end of 2026 only 46%.
Kim isn’t the isolated leader Trump met in 2019. He’s got nukes, missiles and a much tighter relationship with Russia now. That gives Pyongyang more leverage, and U.S. intel better know exactly what Kim thinks he can get away with. #geopolitics

Grenell defends Barrack against attacks from Loomer.Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell)Tom Barrack @USAMBTurkiye is as close to Donald Trump as one can be. He speaks regularly to the President and isn’t a free-lancer.

It is an America First policy.
Tom is doing exactly what he’s asked to do.— https://x.com/RichardGrenell/status/2092346474772484385
According to the Wall Street Journal, U.S. President Donald J. Trump has submitted a nuclear deal, one between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, to Congress. Per the report, as reported earlier last month, President Trump still insists that the deal is contingent on Saudi Arabia normalizing relations with Israel, as a part of the wider Abraham Accords rapprochement framework. The deal, which is expected to utilize U.S. companies to aid in the creation of a Saudi civil nuclear program, would begin with a two-year viability test phase to determine if it is feasible for U.S. companies to build a facility in Saudi Arabia and if the commercial benefits warrant the move. The deal is expected to be heavily debated in Congressional circles.

NEW: Russia is escalating strikes against Ukrainian-Moldovan border infrastructure in conjunction with its campaign against Ukrainian port and maritime infrastructure. (1/2)
Other Key Takeaways:
Russian forces are using the strikes along the Ukrainian-Moldovan border to achieve broader political effects.
The Kremlin is attempting to address concerns about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decree that set conditions for nationalization of critical infrastructure facilities.
Russia launched another satellite into orbit on August 24 for military purposes, potentially as part of its broader efforts to establish a Rassvet (Russian analogue to Starlink) satellite constellation.
US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Ratcliffe reportedly arrived in Moscow on an unscheduled trip, marking what would be Ratcliffe’s first visit to Russia since becoming CIA director.
Ukrainian forces continued their long-range strike campaign against Russian oil and energy infrastructure. Russia launched an unspecified number of Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Kh-31P anti-radar missiles, and 150 drones against Ukraine overnight.
Ukrainian forces recently advanced in the Kupyansk and Borova directions.
If you grew up in Canada, you probably recognize this image from one of your history textbooks: The Battle of Queenston Heights, fought during the War of 1812.
The painting depicts U.S. forces rowing across the Niagara River from Lewiston, NY, on the morning of October 13, 1812 and scaling the cliffs overlooking the village of Queenston. The invaders are being repelled by British redcoats and Upper Canadian militia.
What the textbook probably didn’t mention is that the artist was actually an eyewitness who fought in the very battle he painted.
Captain James B. Dennis, an officer of the British 49th Regiment of Foot, commanded the grenadiers that day.
He completed the original oil on canvas shortly after the war. His work was later immortalized in an 1836 engraving that became a staple of Canadian historical literature.
