Debt ceiling talks
I am going to be so pissed off if Biden folds in any significant way:

What a coinky-dink
Look who he works for: Paul fucking Gosar!
This is very good reporting–but it needs a complete rewrite. The news is that you found out even more (knowing) ties to neo-Nazis with a member of the House. Gosar is the lead and the folo.

Whoa
Wild scoop: Wagner mercenary chief Prigozhin offered to give Russian troop locations to Ukraine in exchange for Bakhmut retreat, classified documents say. New from @shaneharris @ikhurshudyan https://t.co/yZbwi6lTmT

Prigozhin's independent sources of money depend on Wagner's activities outside Russia. No competent Wagner fighters = much less money. https://t.co/mgfOfLRqUg

Note also that according to the article, the Ukrainians declined his offer because they did not trust him.
Good call, Ukrainians.
