  1. Yeah, definitely fucking around with Turkey. Whatever Turkey told Putin, he's mad.
  2. From WarTranslated: Ukraine's Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi reported fighting intensity reached 300 daily clashes, the highest since the war began. Russian forces remain at 710,000 troops, unable to grow despite recruitment as Ukraine inflicts 1,000 daily casualties. Ukrainian forces regained 16 square kilometers in northern Pokrovsk. Yes comrade, normal routine production startup
  3. Okay, interesting timing. There is a group trying to build a united opposition to Putin from outside of Russia, trying to act as the alternative to Putin in terms of PACE (Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe) - basically putting themselves out there as representatives of Russia instead of Putin and his cronies.
  4. 2 dead is what I saw.
  5. Updates on attack in Syria today against US and partner forces: - The two soldiers killed in Syria today were members of the Iowa National Guard, according to a US official. The civilian was an interpreter. - They were killed during a Key Leader Engagement in Palmyra, according to the US official and official close to the Syrian government. - The shooter was a member of the Ministry of Interior’s security forces, according to the two officials. He was already “under investigation for his ties to ISIS,” and was being “kicked out” of the interior ministry, said the US official, who called him a “rogue member.” The official close to the Syrian government says he was “about to be arrested.”
  6. And you can bet those forces are going to be much better equipped than the meat waves in Ukraine. I'm also betting that if they go through with building up those groups/centers, after that he will do a massive mobilization of Moscow and St. Petersburg. If he's not building those groups/centers up for that, then there's something else on the way economically.
  7. Putin starting to sweat a bit?
  8. Trump is certainly scared of it and wanted it to go away after he took office. And he leaned on Congress not to vote in favor of releasing the files.
  9. The estate is not going to have any such photos because that’s illegal to own. The DOJ swept all of those up. Trump campaigned last year on releasing the files. In February his AG claimed to have a list of clients on her desk. Then he said there were no files or lists or whatever. But he released something to influencers. Which was tame stuff. Then Congress finally forced his hand. Then he ordered the DOJ to investigate again, most likely to tie up a lot of files as evidence.
  10. You were defeated by what’s called a “slideshow” or a “gallery”. Swipe the photos or click on them. There were at least two AP stories that featured them. CNN keeps popping up a paywall and/or they are in video clips and I’m not going to deal with it.
  11. And if we wanted to slow down illegal immigration, reducing the need for rounding people up, we should start by drying up the jobs here - go after the companies and people who are hiring them, proving them an impetus to come here illegally in the first place. As long as there are better jobs here, they will continue to try and come here and they will risk it. Combine that with trying to improve conditions in those nations so they never leave in the first place, and create new markets for American businesses there if we can boost those countries’ economies. Maybe we could call such an organization….I dunno…maybe “USAID”.
  12. What's the lesson for Ukraine from this win from 45 years ago, when you defeated a Russian team [during the 1980 Winter Olympics] against all odds? President Trump: Well, it's a similar situation, isn't it? Let's see what happens. We're working on seeing if we can make a deal right now. We're going to see. We'll soon know.
  13. The only reason he might push for it is for some votes. But this comment.. They are called “adults” Donnie.
  14. He knows his audience can be bribed for cheap.
  15. I'm going to start collections of photos of various politicians' family members (wives and mothers) and start generating lots and lots of AI porn using those photos. Wouldn't take too much spreading that around before Congress gets interested.
  16. More they talk about each other, the better. Q had nothing on these people
  17. EU Foreign Policy Chief, Kaja Kallas: "The EU just decided to indefinitely immobilize Russian assets. This ensures that up to €210 billion in Russian funds stay on EU soil, unless Russia fully pays reparations to Ukraine for the damage it has caused. We keep increasing the pressure on Russia until it takes negotiations seriously." And more sanctions:
  18. Wish they would pound Moscow and St Petersburg, but I understand why they don’t for now. Odesa is without electricity, water, gas, and communication after one of Russia’s most intense attacks of the war. More than ten explosions have been reported, involving ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, Oniks missiles, and Kinzhal hypersonic missiles. This is a city of 1 million people, including 200,000 children. Russia’s aim is clear: to create a humanitarian catastrophe in Odesa on the eve of Christmas. Another wave is expected — over 50 Shahed drones are approaching.
  19. Yeah, it’s not some guy wrongly convicted or who spend 20 years in prison for some marijuana he did when he was 18. It’s a guy who spent years deliberately ripping off thousands.
  20. https://www.kyivpost.com/post/66009 Summary of the vote: The UN has adopted Ukraine’s resolution on studying the consequences of the Chornobyl disaster. The resolution also condemns the Russian suicide drone strike on the Chornobyl sarcophagus. 8 states voted against: USA North Korea China Russia Belarus Cuba Niger Nicaragua
  21. More on what @Schulz2.0 posted earlier - Russia fucking aorund with Turkey? Hours after phone call Friday between Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan and Russia’s Vladimir Putin, the Russian Armed Forces launched a major ballistic missile and drone attack against the Odesa Oblast of Southern Ukraine, striking two ports and damaging at least three commercial vessel, all of which were owned by companies based in Turkey. One of the vessel, the Panamanian-flagged and Turkish-owned CENK T, a roll-on/roll-off passenger ferry, was struck by at least one drone, starting a large fire which caused extensive damage to the ship, according to the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
