      Russia literally attempted to assassinate a man and his daughter in Salisbury, UK.

      This is their MO, just like the song “It’s raining men!” Isn’t a celebration in Moscow, it’s a warning to take cover.

      While the ultimate source is probably the CIA, this is the Jerusalem Post reporting about an upcoming book by an academic historian—so it’s presumably been vetted by a few other parties.
