The RussiaGate psychodrama is about an agreement based on lies. It started with Hillary Clinton's desperate ploy to save her floundering 2016 election campaign. Her emails somehow got sent to Wikileaks, a radical news org dedicated to revealing government secrets, implicating misconduct.

I arrived in Washington for an event last night, trying to finish the story about former CIA official Susan Miller's disputed biography on my phone, when new information dropped from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's office. Before heading home today (with a pause to record America This Week from a hotel), I wanted to catch readers up on new developments, and explain some of what we'll be publishing in the next week or so, as a wall of nonsense enters crumble mode. Tulsi's new document is a whistleblower statement, from a former "Deputy National Intelligence Officer (DNIO) at the National Intelligence Council (NIC)." The former official's story mostly surrounds his suppressed objections to the use of unverifiable evidence in the Russiagate assessment, and subsequent odyssey through the whistleblower bureaucracy. A tale I'd never heard before, that the dossier material was inserted during a car ride...

🌧️ Why Russia and the US are bound to cooperate beyond Earth
In orbit, not in opposition: Moscow and Washington find rare common ground in space. The head of Roscosmos, Dmitry Bakanov, has made a rare visit to the United States - his first official trip since assuming the top job at Russia's space agency. The occasion? To attend the launch of Russian cosmonaut Oleg Platonov aboard a SpaceX spacecraft and to meet with his counterpart, acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy. Whether or not he meets Elon Musk remains to be seen. But this trip is significant far beyond the question of private handshakes. This was, first and foremost, a political and diplomatic visit - the kind that's planned months in advance and requires high-level approval. That it's taking place now, in the midst of a direct confrontation between Moscow and Washington over Ukraine, speaks volumes. It marks the first in-person meeting between the heads of Roscosmos and NASA since 2018, when Dmitry Rogozin hosted Jim Bridenstine at Baikonur.

🌋 400-mile-long chain of fossilized volcanoes discovered beneath China
Researchers recently discovered a huge chain of extinct volcanoes buried deep below South China that formed when two tectonic plates collided during the breakup of Rodinia, around 800 million years ago. Researchers have discovered a 400-mile-long chain of extinct, fossilized volcanoes buried deep below South China. The volcanoes formed when two tectonic plates collided during the breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia hundreds of millions of years ago, the scientists reported in a new study. The ancient volcanoes extend the region of past volcanism in this area by several hundred miles and may have affected Earth's climate. About 800 million years ago, during the early Neoproterozoic era, South China sat at the northwestern margin of Rodinia. Shifting plate tectonics caused this area to break off into what is now the Yangtze Block plate, pushing it toward the China Ocean plate. As the two plates collided, the denser oceanic crust sank beneath the more buoyant continental crust and...

Hong Kong has been hit with record-breaking rains that have seen schools and courts shuttered, hospitals disrupted, and roads badly flooded. More than 350mm (13.8 inches) of rain had drenched the territory by 2pm (06:00 GMT) on Tuesday, the city's weather authorities said - the highest daily rainfall for August since 1884. The storms follow deadly flash floods in Southern China over the weekend, which left five dead in Guangdong province and prompted a large-scale search operation involving more than 1,300 rescuers. Videos showed water cascading down steep hillsides, breaking into whitewater streams as they rushed down the many staircases linking Hong Kong's multitiered cityscape. Weather authorities extended their highest "black" rainstorm warning until 5pm local time (09:00 GMT). This was the fourth such warning issued in just eight days, breaking the record for the most frequent issuance of the city's highest weather alert within a single year, according to China's state news...

The fireball was described as exceptionally bright and accompanied by a loud "boom". Recordings of the event, both still photos and video, spread quickly on social media. The sudden flash and the noise led to speculation whether it was related to the border clashes with Cambodia, maybe a drone incursion.

Two times around, the US president and the prime minister went, looking down on Donald Trump's new golf course north of Aberdeen. Finally, they came into land, days of diplomacy garnished with absurdity. Downing Street is reconciled to the Trumpian ways of doing international affairs. If doing a few airborne laps of the president's new Scottish golf course are par for the course on board the presidential helicopter and en route to a private dinner with him, so be it. This notionally "private" trip for Trump has been actually very public. Of course it has: it is how the president rolls. The president's private interests are talked up in public office, even down to the quality of the plywood at Trump's Turnberry golf course in Ayrshire, where he was before he flew on to Aberdeenshire.
