Silicon Bites Ep432 | 2026-10-23 | Everyone is hunting for Putin’s tapes on Trump. The vile acts that apparently give Russia leverage to squeeze all sorts of concessions from the spray tan Fuhrer in the White House. Forget it. What if Trump does not care about kompromat and thinks it would not touch him in any case. Afterall see what he’s already gotten away with. Trump doesn't need to be blac...

Silicon Bites Ep425 | 2026-10-18 | Kompromat does not explain what we are seeing. A man who fears exposure would do the minimum required for his blackmailer to keep the secrets hidden. But Trump is now doing the maximum within his power to help Putin. This is alignment, this is partnership, infatuation even – a person willing to do whatever it takes for one of the world’s most malignant killers an...

Cormac Smith has worked in Public Relations and Corporate Communications for over three decades. In 2016 he traveled to Ukraine to take up a special appointment as the ‘Strategic Communication Advisor’ to Pavlo Klimkin, then the Foreign Minister of Ukraine. He was attached to the British Embassy in Kyiv but was embedded in Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the first foreigner to hold such a p...

Silicon Bites Ep424 | 2026-10-16 | Musk says Trump did it. Trump says nobody did it. Reuters says the White House did it. The Telegraph says they did it together — while jet-powered shaheeds hit Kyiv and the interceptors went blind. People died. Could those deaths have been prevented? It’s impossible to say, but certainly Ukraine’s ability to defend itself was seriously hampered. ----------SUPPORT...

Silicon Bites SW26-230 | 2026-10-14 | Russia is working its way through the horses of the apocalypse. War has been waged on Ukraine since 2014, and Putin’s modern wars started even before he was president, in 1999. Death is something Putin has exported on an industrial, historical scale, and brought substantial excess and unnecessary death to his own people. Famine will likely follow the shutting...

Silicon Bites Ep422 | 2026-10-15 | Ukraine Hits Russia's Digital Fuel. Trump Said Leave the Fuel Alone. So, Ukraine Hit the Data. Refineries are a slow burn, but Data centres are a spark that could ignite the whole Russian economy and collapse Putin’s regime. Certainly, the implications for his war economy are huge and devastating. Trump told Ukraine to leave Russia's fuel alone. Ten days...

Silicon Bites Ep422 | 2026-10-14 | Trump is leaning on the scales, in favour of Putin and Russia. It’s overt. It’s in plain sight. It’s disgusting and reprehensible. Despite having many American friends, and know many fine Americans who are fighting tooth and nail for Ukraine’s survival, I have to declare that the U.S. which is implementing Trump’s policies is now the enemy of Ukraine, or Europe a...

Silicon Bites Ep421 | 2026-10-13 | Russia was one of the most developed digital countries in the world - an early large-scale adopter of mobile communications and online shopping - and with extensive range of government services moved online. Ukraine could end not only the digital economy in a few weeks (that's happening) but could crash the entire economy with just a few targeted strikes.----...

Silicon Bites SW26-229 | 2026-10-12 | Seoul recalls its ambassador from the only country killing Kim Jong Un's soldiers, South Korea’s main adversary, that it’s still technically at war with, and calls it diplomacy. It’s not – it’s strategic lunacy, utterly myopic, and borderline abusive. What the ‘F’ is S. Korea thinking? Two soldiers of the Korean People's Army were captured in the snow...

Silicon Bites Ep420 | 2026-10-12 | Washington squeezes the victim, rewards the aggressor. Trump lies about a fictitious energy ceasefire agreed by both sides. There was no such agreement, Ukraine was not involved in any such discussion and Putin answers by bombing Kharkiv's power plant within hours. Some of you may still be clinging on to the forlorn hope, the delusion that this is about elect...

Silicon Bites Ep419 | 2026-10-11 | Ukraine snaps Putin's Donbas pincer closed — and starts to prove that an army that invests in machines, and can intelligently deploy them, can out-manoeuvre an army that has an advantage in human resources, and spends men like worthless and disposable meat. Last week, at the Valdai Club, Vladimir Putin told the world that Russia now holds 89 per cent of the D...

Silicon Bites Ep418 | 2026-10-11 | The colouring in Red Diesel is now Ukrainian blood, the blood of children. The aging abuser and parasite, Donald Trump is acting fully to the benefit of Putin’s Russia and its genocidal war. He is now all-in, in the war that Putin is all-in until the end of his life, committed to attacking Ukraine until it capitulates, and attacking the democratic Western allies....

Silicon Bites SW26-227 | 2026-10-10 | Consequences for its aggression are starting to bite in Moscow. Ukraine’s drones and balloons shut Moscow’s skies, apparently forcing the tsar to circle his own capital until it’s safe to land. Can you even imagine having to be the minion on board that jet that must deliver the bad news to Putin – sir, we cannot protect you in the capital – because Ukraine con...

Silicon Bites Ep417 | 2026-10-10 | Consequence have arrived for a group of Russia’s leading propagandists. Montenegro detains and expels Rybar's Mikhail Zvinchuk — how he thought he could get away with filming propaganda reels in a NATO country is confusing a lot of people, not least other Z-Patriots. It’s also promoted former Russian president Medvedev to crawl out of a vodka bottle and issue...

Silicon Bites Ep416 | 2026-10-09 | Primarily, he’s working for himself of course. But in serving his own ends, Trump is now overtly helping the enemy to win their genocidal war. After a phone call with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump announces Russia will pump millions of tonnes of diesel into American and global markets. Within minutes, the US Treasury issues a general licence to make it legal. Puti...
