The head of Russia Today has admitted to cracks appearing in Vladimir Putin’s empire

Speaking on The Evening program, Margarita Simonyan has admitted that Russia’s elite are concerned about the outcomes of the Ukraine war.

“God knows we didn’t want this…

Everyone with no exception will be held accountable. All of us will be considered guilty.”

She explained they’re concerned about the possibility of being tried for war crimes, and that if Russia lose, there’s no win for anyone who currently supports Putin.

“I am amazed by our people—and I unfortunately know many of them—including those in very high circles, who are afraid of this and are scared to call things by their proper names because of what people over there may think.”

“We could spit on what they think over there! People who are afraid of the Hague—listen, you should be afraid to lose, to be humiliated and be afraid to betray your people. Let me tell you that if we manage to lose, the Hague—whether real or hypothetical—will come even for a street cleaner who is sweeping the cobblestones behind the Kremlin.”

Simonyan also claimed Russian forces will be subject to future war crimes trial and ‘catastrophe’ if it loses the war against Ukraine.

The host of the program, Vladimir Solovyov finished the conversation with a stark nuclear warning.

“There won’t be any Hague if this happens, there won’t be anything at all. The whole world will be reduced to ashes.”

Trump nominates Sydney influencer Nick Adams as US ambassador to Malaysia amidst diplomatic concerns and a controversial past.

Donald Trump has nominated Nick Adams, a former suburban councillor from Sydney, to be the US ambassador to Malaysia.

Adams, who has built a significant following as a MAGA influencer, is known for his self-presentation as an “alpha male” and “cultural thought leader”. His nomination is pending confirmation by the US Senate.

Adams previously made headlines as a deputy mayor in Ashfield for a controversial proposal to eliminate pigeons to prevent bird flu. He was suspended from the Liberal Party after verbal abuse towards a journalist in 2009, although he claimed to have resigned prior to the suspension.

Now an American citizen, Adams has founded a nonprofit organisation aimed at promoting conservative values among children. He is known for advocating “patriotic boycotts” against companies perceived to promote progressive values.

In a post following his nomination, Adams expressed gratitude to Trump for the opportunity to serve, highlighting his commitment to America. His past includes an educational background in media and communications, and he has been involved in various publicity stunts, some of which attracted media attention.

Experts have expressed concern over his lack of diplomatic experience, suggesting his appointment could damage US-Malaysia relations, especially given current geopolitical tensions.Adams’s appointment is viewed by some as a sign that Trump does not prioritise the foreign service, potentially leading to challenges in diplomatic relations with Malaysia.

Mushroom foraging tours face rising insurance costs

Erin Patterson’s murder trial has increased insurance costs for mushroom foraging tours, though insurers deny a direct link.

Erin Patterson’s murder trial has increased insurance costs for mushroom foraging tours, though insurers deny a direct link.

In Short:
Erin Patterson’s trial for poisoning relatives has raised concerns about rising insurance costs for mushroom foraging tours in Australia, impacting operators like Feresh Pizarro and Natasha Vorogushin. Despite increased premiums, the Insurance Council maintains these changes are not directly related to the trial, highlighting a need for better public education on fungi.

The trial of Erin Patterson, who poisoned three relatives with death cap mushrooms, has affected mushroom foraging tours in Australia.

Operators report rising insurance costs, though the Insurance Council of Australia states these increases are unlikely linked to the trial. Patterson was recently convicted, prompting concerns among tour guides like Feresh Pizarro, who claims her insurance premiums have skyrocketed, threatening her business viability.

She explains the importance of educating the public about fungi, which play significant ecological roles. Similarly, Natasha Vorogushin from Morwell faces challenges obtaining adequate insurance for her foraging workshops, illustrating industry-wide issues.

Insurance costs

Richard Ford, a tour operator in Mount Macedon, also notes high insurance costs looming over his activities. Despite these challenges, the Insurance Council asserts that insurance adjustments often do not arise from perceived risks associated with singular events, such as Patterson’s case.

University of NSW actuarial studies professor Michael Sherris believes that while premiums are rising generally, this specific trial is unlikely to affect the insurance landscape for mushroom foraging.
