    I don’t do a whole lot of these tweets, but I wrote a book this year on North Korea’s nuclear weapons—past and present—and whoever curates things here has made it an ‘Editor‘s Pick’ for ‘Best History‘. You can see what it’s about here & maybe even buy it!

    Well, of course.

    As we wrote, the people behind the site went out of their way to make the site appear as though it was linked to Russia (in a way that seemed a bit odd). Also note that this would be AFAIK the first known Iranian disinfo footprint on Parler (or any other nation stats one)
