I call your urgent attention to this fantastic, if harrowing, accounting of UKR casualties to date, by my friend and colleague, Alex Vershinin. His overall assessment matches my own — and yet is much more detailed. UKR losses (per actual population) match those of France in WWI!!

A new offering up now: A limpid distillation of Gaius and Germanicus, 4/21/25: substack-proxy.glitch.me/articles/micha… A conversation, perhaps, of interest!

Gaius and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) discuss Elon Musk's departure from the White House, a meeting between Trump and Zelenskyy at the Vatican, and the Roman historian Suetonius. Full discussion on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/johnbatche…

Let me state a fundamental democratic problem as starkly as possible: if you want to build a career in political journalism you can't meaningfully describe what's actually happening in the political system.

In latest episode of #TriptheBeltwayFantastic, Michael Vlahos & James Carden talk about Trump just 'walking away' from Ukraine War. Is this part of the plan? Maybe, Mike says here. (full link below)

A compelling vision — "a thought experiment" — worth reading: "The Hidden Dollar Revolution" [like Lenin "blew his mind out in a car"]!

Triumphant anthems strip away all Presentism. We still seek WWII: Only now it is transfigured into gross caricature. The West's Holy War against Russia, and Russia/China's Holy War against a grasping West: All still throb to the neon emotions of a desperate desire for Sacred War

"[Putin] needs to find someone who will be as good a steward of Russia as he has been, because under his leadership, Russia has recovered. It's recovered its status, its stature, but it's also recovered its material prosperity and the loyalty of its people." Michael Vlahos on

My adjuration, of course, is that we must fight. That, of course, was the Battlecry of our President at Butler Farm!

Curt is right! There has been a zeitgeist shift, triggered by the Jacobin "Church of Woke" — which transfigured BLUE Establishment "globalism" into Jacobin war-universalism. Its many vectors finally came together: COVID Tyranny, Kabul humiliation, Elite-driven migrant invasions

Today on Londinium Chronicles with Michael Vlahos : the failed UA-RU negotiations in Istanbul, an upcoming book on former President Biden’s health decline, and a Civitas Outlook article on Vergil, the poet laureate of America’s founding. Full discussion on Substack:

For those like me, who chafe at podcast earfuls, here is DeepSeek's very fair analysis of our 5/18 conversation.

You mean the "difference" between raw historical and human authenticity and its absolute absence? This is "wild" alright: So wild as to be bone bled of emotion! What happens when movies cease to move us at all?ShadowsOfConstantinople Classical Odyssey Roberto Buffagni The Aureus Press

What have we done? We have visited this horror on an entire people, for our own venal vanity. We have arrived at the literal end of our precious sacred narrative: Which we, as Americans, have forever betrayed. Our eternal shame. "Cry, The Beloved Country!" What have we done?

A writer who can conjure a title like "Blood Meridian" is the true, remote posterity of John Donne and the Wizard Scribes of King James! Andrew Beck

A great and deeply subtle event. My intervention [1:10:50] sought to make clear the need for a dramatic battlefield breakthrough that brings all parties to a moment of truth — that is, as History shows, a necessary instrument of resolution!
