Wow, pretty good, Santa Clara is almost at it's historical low. Canada is not quite as close.

They had to walk this back pretty quickly, definitely a gaffe. You're gonna want to stick to the prepared text when you're addressing international relations on this level.
India has historically depended on Russia for military hardware. This is seen as a big part of why they're neutral on Russia/Ukraine. China has been trying to co-opt India onto 'their side' but it's not clear that effort is going well.
• Thread documenting how Russia has historically never been particularly efficient at winning wars, depends entirely on massive manpower advantage.
• A thread covering where the Russia/Ukraine war is after a month.
• A child bicyclist was killed in Mountain View recently, which has brought bike/pedestrian safety to the forefront. I liked this short response to the city's bias towards inaction.
