St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly deputy Boris Vishnevsky was designated as a "foreign agent" last week for criticizing the war to foreign journalists. Now his office door and floor seat bear the "foreign agent" warning, and it's repeated during morning roll call.

@kevinrothrock Boris is an elected legislator? I wonder how us foreigners got the people of St. Petersburg to elect our agent. That could come in handy.

The NYT is here to explain Armenians to you: "For Armenians, a classic relic ethnic minority whose Christianity and peculiar alphabet date to the epic struggles between the Romans and the Parthians, it was another genocide."

People asking me if Putin is headed for six feet under — please don’t be silly. He doesn’t need nearly that many feet, even if buried upright.

The Foreign Ministry seems to be running with the HIMARS explanation, while other Russian officials have leaned on “sabotage.” (The latter scenario — explosives planted inside — is more plausible from a structural POV, but neither is impossible or mutually exclusive.)

@kevinrothrock It’s MH-17 all over again. I think we should be careful about feeding the narrative that so many things are technically possible that it’s impossible to ever know the truth. |
@kevinrothrock What’s upside down one doing? 🤔
@kevinrothrock lol both frames are too simplified
@kevinrothrock Do you want to tell the world history you stopped teaching?
