A U.S. Army soldier has been arrested with our partners in the UK in a Russia-related espionage investigation. Our message is clear: This @FBI has no tolerance for anyone who breaks their oath to the United States. FBI will continue using every resource at our disposal to hunt down any subject who compromises our national security. 167 counterintelligence and espionage arrests in 21 months — up 53%. Thanks to MI5, UK Counterrrorism Police and Defence Counterintelligence, and U.S. Army Counterintelligence Command. Investigation ongoing. More to come.

Two individuals wearing gloves and camouflage uniforms work together to connect a large, rusty metal chain and shackle. The heavy chain coils on the concrete floor between them as they secure the rigging.

What sort of embarrassment is this, for goodness’ sake? Who came up with this idea, and who approved it? What kind of backwardness is this? Even the rider is clearly just a sacrificial lamb in this whole arrangement. This is absolutely pathetic and embarrassing. 🤦‍♂️

"Igbo land is developed, why don't you go back and do your business there?" Even Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, left South Africa to invest in America and China. You don't understand business. That's why you have no middle class, only very rich and extremely poor people.

Goodbye map[string]struct{} 👋 Go's generic set proposal was just accepted. set.Set is still a map underneath, so range just works, but you get Insert, Contains, Union, Difference and more. It lands first in golang.org/x/exp/collection/… go.dev/issue/69230

Two leftist Marxist students celebrating the Islamic Revolution in Tehran, 1979. Sahar Mohammadi (left) and Maryam Rafiei (right). Maryam Rafiei was later executed by the same regime in the 1988 prison massacres, along with thousands of other leftist political activists. The revolution ate its own. They hated the Shah of Iran so much that they cheered Khomeini’s arrival, convinced the revolution would bring freedom and modernity. Reminds you of anything today?

" I was bringing in more of the money in the marriage and my ex-husband always felt disrespected. Although he is eight years older than me... but the moment we got married if I tell him, 'You dey crease,' he would say I’m disrespecting him, and then I would start wondering if it was the same person I got married to. I regret choosing love over money." — Actress Jegede
