    Biden makes historic visit to Ukraine, showing solidarity with the war-torn country and pledging more U.S. aid as war’s anniversary nears;
    in the process giving Putin the finger

    The clandestine nature of the trip points to the dangers of America's commander-in-chief visiting Ukraine amid continuing bombardment, as Russia continued firing missiles into the country hoping to break an impasse as the war enters its second year. Air raid sirens sounded while Biden was on the ground.

    Finland, who shares a > 800 miles border with Russia, officially joined the NATO military alliance in early April.

    apart from Bidenomics, “NATOization of Finland.” has been one of Biden proudest accomplishments in office: maintaining, and even expanding the NATO alliance in the face of Russian aggression.

    Later this month, Biden will be traveling to Finland, NATO’s newest member, to coincide with the 30-member bloc’s July summit in Lithuania,

    The US and Microsoft disrupt a Russian hacking group targeting American officials and nonprofits



    A hacking group tied to Russian intelligence tried to worm its way into the systems of dozens of Western think tanks, journalists and former military and intelligence officials, Microsoft (MSFT) and U.S. authorities said Thursday.

    The group, known as Star Blizzard to cyberespionage experts, targeted its victims with emails that appeared to come from a trusted source — a tactic known as spear phishing. In fact, the emails sought access to the victims' internal systems, as a way to steal information and disrupt their activities.

    Star Blizzard's actions were persistent and sophisticated, according to Microsoft, and the group often did detailed research on its targets before launching an attack. Star Blizzard also went after civil society groups, U.S. companies, American military contractors and the Department of Energy, which oversees many nuclear programs, the company said​


    “The Russian government ran this scheme to steal Americans’ sensitive information, using seemingly legitimate email accounts to trick victims into revealing account credentials," Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said in announcing the U.S. actions against Star Blizzard. "With the continued support of our private sector partners, we will be relentless in exposing Russian actors and cybercriminals and depriving them of the tools of their illicit trade.”

    Star Blizzard has been linked to Russia's Federal Security Service, or FSB. Last year, British authorities accused the group of mounting
    a yearslong cyberespionage campaign against U.K. lawmakers. Microsoft said it has been tracking the group's activities since 2017.

    Microsoft said it observed Star Blizzard attempt dozens of hacking efforts targeting 30 different groups since January 2023. The tech giant's cybersecurity experts say Star Blizzard has proven to be especially elusive.

    “Star Blizzard’s ability to adapt and obfuscate its identity presents a continuing challenge for cybersecurity professionals,” the company wrote in a report on its findings.

    So another dude that thinks only men should be leaders, regardless of how stupid, evil, or corrupt they are? SMH at the misogynistic mentality.

    I happen to know two of those five personally, and they are utterly incompetent.

    There have been great female leaders in history. This is one of them:
