The negotiations are just a fucking scam by the Russians to play other countries.

Sky News reports that Britain, at the "Ramstein" format meeting, announced the allocation of a large air defence aid package to Ukraine worth nearly €685 million. British Defence Secretary John Healey said that Kyiv will receive air defence systems, missiles, and automated turrets for shooting down drones.

I'm enjoying the pivot into antisemitism that so many on the right are going through.
I'm sure that will play well in Florida.

Very much so.
The problem is social media, bringing all these nuts together and then strength in numbers.
Yep, these people used to be confined to the back rooms of bookstores or student unions or some cheap restaurant late at night. They very clearly knew their views were not mainstream, and it was not easy to spread them around. Here in 2025, they can blast it out to all of their relatives at no cost, within seconds, not to mention around the world.

I kinda get it now with these particular types of Christians always talking about demons.
Probably run into a lot of sociopaths in their own circles. Bad people that try to hide it with piety and projection.
A lot of their demons either come in a bottle or in the shape of a pill.

The war in the Black Sea absolutely exposes Russian weaknesses and serves a lesson how to defeat a superior opponent, using technology and smart strategies.
The Russian offensive operations in the Black Sea have completely reversed. In stage one they launched a blockade against Odesa, Ukraine. The sinking of the Russian flagship, Moskva, abruptly ended this operation. Russians were forced to break off their blockade and withdraw to the occupied peninsula of Crimea.
In the second stage Russians tried to hold the line, while firing long-range missiles into Ukraine. The Russian-occupied harbour of Sevastopol, Russian-occupied Ukraine, was the lynchpin of this operation. When Ukrainian long-range missile destroyed the Russian headquarters along the submarine Rostov-on-Don in August 2024 and other warships in this sector, this operation fell apart. Again, Russians were forced to further retreat.
The third and current stage started with the withdrawal of the Russian Black Sea fleet back to Russia, making Novorossiysk the new headquarters. The operations from there has been similar to those conducted from Sevastopol. The greater distance to the combat zones in Ukraine should have made things easier, but the last weeks proved otherwise. New drones have penetrated Russian defenses and struck Novorossiysk multiple times, including Russian air defense assets
The strike today against the Russian submarine "Varshavyanka" marks the beginning of the end of Russia's last naval holdout in this region. Russians will never ever feel safe anywhere in the Black Sea. Together with raids against Russian shadow fleet tankers, this will further complicate Russian abilities to wage war against Ukraine, as well as any other states in the Black Sea region. I wouldn't be surprised when Moscow will soon "offer" a naval truce.
For the Asia-Pacific region this development will be of great importance.
From the comments
First, the Japanese sank the original admiral Makarov, and the Ukrainians sank the ship Admiral Makarov, which was christened in his honor.

The Ukrainian general staff has confirmed that the Astrakhan gas processing station was struck last night. Locals reported of explosions and unusual fires have been seen on videos. NASA FIRMS map detected a large heat source after the strikes. The damage assessment is underway.
Aside from processing gas, the station feeds from the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC), connecting natural gas transports from Tengiz, Kazakhstan, to Novorossiysk, Russia. Ukrainian forces already struck facilities of that pipeline in the past.

I've listened to some of his stuff (not much), and he can be like Zeihan and a little long-winded, but he seems good for those not following things too closely and who aren't aware of a lot of the day-to-day stuff (and can be listened to in the background).

So they say Ukraine might be close to agreeing to the modified US-brokered deal. Prediction:
We come up with a deal they agree to. Putin blows it off completely. Our President gets mad. Makes some tweets. Rince. Repeat.
Russia has made it clear they won't accept any deal unless they get everything they want, so this maybe setting the Trump administration up to have another chance at peace fail completely.

Nuclear news from @hntrbrkmedia: hundreds of tons of yellowcake uranium are on the move in Niger. In order to reach an export terminal in nearby Togo, Russia and Niger appear poised to move the uranium over hundreds of miles of territory occupied by jihadist groups.

You know, we can look back at various empires, and pinpoint moments big and small that led to the downfall of those empires, whether they be Romans, Persians, Ottomans, British, Spanish, etc., etc. It's just so obvious in hindsight, some real "damn, they really fucked up at this particular moment in time" kinds of moments.
Most of the time, the people who were living at that time within those empires would not have realized the seriousness of those moments, because they would have grown up in a situation where the empire is all they had ever known. They couldn't conceive of something wrecking their world and they would have seen the occasional speed bump but assumed that things would course-correct and everything would work out fine, because that's how it had always been in their lives.
And in those cases where we can assign an exact date to the end of an empire, even then for the majority of people who were living at that time, it might have been just another day. One day a farmer and his family go to sleep under one ruler or one country, and they wake up the next day under another ruler or country. He still has chickens to tend to, fields to plow, etc. He's going to hear about it after the fact. He may not even be able to see the big picture, because he lives in a tiny village in the boonies. Maybe whoever comes by to collect taxes has a different accent in the future.
But here in America in 2025, we all have access to information (even if we don't partake of it) where we are aware of these things, and we can in fact see, in real-time where we are pissing away our influence on the world scene. We will feel the effects over time on our economy (it will be measured in years, so we will see and feel it).
Killing USAID and Voice of America and various other things we use to project soft power, we are literally giving the Chinese a power vacuum to fill, and when they fill it, we can't just put a different party in power in 2026 and 2028 and bring back everything and tell the Chinese "yeah, you guys need to leave, we got this, we'll send them some food and medicine and they'll let our oil or mining companies back in, no harm, no foul!"
When countries pivot away from one empire to another, well, lest we forget we have a very relevant example from earlier in the year: when we got in the tariff fight with Canada, they literally said they need to pivot to Europe and replace us with Europe. When that happens, we won't be able to claw our way back into those markets easily, because that's a helluva lot of supply chains/infrastructure that does not pivot all that quickly.
When conference realignment happens globally, just like with college sports, there's usually no going back to the old conference. And this isn't the Cold War where we just keep a steady bearing and stick to our values and we can beat the Russian bear and eventually get all of those Eastern European countries on our side. China is playing a much longer game than we and the Soviets were.

Yeah. And I particularly loved that very Christian era in DFW (and Texas as a whole), when they lynched black people. https://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/lynching
You could really feel Christ's loving embrace as they grabbed and tortured black men before they executed them in public. WWJL? Who Would Jesus Lynch?
Fuck these pieces of shit. Fuck their fake Christianity.
And lest we forget a little show in the 80s called.....Dallas....about a beautiful, loving, Christian family, you know, the Ewings.
Every week, we were regaled with tales of the Ewings and their friends and competitors (not enemies mind you) going out and doing good things in the world.

I'm coming back to this because she said exactly what the proper, grown up response to tfg's batshittery. The fact that the perfect response came from this source is utterly baffling to me. But I'll take it if it means the people who follow her see a crack in the facade of their great and wonderful orange Oz.
Almost makes you wonder if her MAGA stuff was all an act.

The shooter on the bridge was right behind the other shooter whose gun was taken. So I wouldn't be surprised if the hero was shot by the guy on the bridge after taking the gun
Bingo, we were right, after he took the father down, the son shot him.
QuoteThe owner of a tobacconist, al-Ahmed, a 44-year-old father of two daughters, aged six and seven, suffered gunshot wounds to his shoulder and arm from the second suspected attacker, Naveed Akram, who turned his fire on al-Ahmed after he had disarmed his father.

Trump’s America
in Cloak Room

I feel like there are recordings of her interviews.
I always love how they say he's done more in 11 months than any President in 8 years. I feel like FDR probably accomplished more in the 8 years leading up to his death, but that's just me.
