  1. More info about how clever Ukraine is.

    Security Service of Ukraine hit Russian Il-38N before targeting submarine in Novorossiysk Ukraine’s Security Service of Ukraine has revealed new details of a special operation in Novorossiysk. 

    Before striking the submarine, SBU operatives disabled Russia’s only operational Black Sea–based anti-submarine patrol aircraft — the Ilyushin Il‑38N (“Sea Dragon”) — at Yeysk airbase. 

    The Il-38N was actively hunting Ukrainian naval drones and was the sole aircraft capable of detecting the Sub Sea Babyunderwater drone. 

    The aircraft was hit by an SBU combat drone detonated directly above its radar and equipment section, damaging critical systems and an engine.

    When you draw shapes over text with Acrobat, it's drawing the shape/box essentially on a new layer over the text. So the text remains, but you can't see it with the blacked out rectangle. But if you highlight all the text, you can still get all of it, including the bits under the shapes/blackouts. The correct way, if using Photoshop/Acrobat, would be to rasterize/flatten it all to a single layer, but that would involve actually using your brain. Of course, this is a ridiculously dumb oversight, so the MAGAsphere has shifted to saying DOJ did this all on purpose.

    What the dumbshits did was highlight shit then clicked the black fill in. Works the same as highlighting it yellow. 


    What if I told you that there are FBI agents/DOJ officials who dislike Trump and this bullshit and deliberately made sure, at least as much as they could, that we could find Trump in the files, and get at that redacted text as much as possible, while pretending to redact that information to please their bosses?

    Or we can believe that dozens or hundreds of agents who work with PDF files every fucking day just absolutely whiffed something this simple in a case this high-profile?

    Donald Trump has said the US will keep or sell the crude oil contained on tankers it has seized off the coast of Venezuela, as well as the vessels themselves. The US president's comments came as Washington continues to pressure the South American country's leader Nicolás Maduro to stand down.

    Speaking to reporters in Florida on Monday, Trump said of the oil "we're going to keep it", adding: "Maybe we will sell it, maybe we will keep it. Maybe we'll use it in the Strategic Reserves. We're keeping the ships also."

    Quote

    When asked whether the goal of the seizures was to force Maduro from power, Trump responded: "Well, I think it probably would... That's up to him what he wants to do. I think it'd be smart for him to do that. But again, we're gonna find out."

    Speaking on Monday, Trump repeated that the US intends to strike targets on land too. He said: "We'll be starting the same programme on land. If they want to come by land, they're going to end up having a big problem. They're going to get blown to pieces, because we don't want our people poisoned."

    Speaking on state television, Maduro responded to Trump by saying: "He would be better off in his own country dealing with economic and social issues and the world would be better off if he focused on his own country's affairs."

     


    Sorry Venezuela, those files ain’t going to go away on their own.

    The part where he fucked his mom and flew too close to the sun is quite riveting and you can see where George R. R. Martin got some of his inspiration from. Hell, his mom wasn’t even stuck in a clothes dryer because they wouldn’t be invented for another 2,700 years.

    Maybe when you get enough money, you need to find novel ways to find thrills. I don't have that problem.

    You’re not being invited to test-drive a 2026 Ferrari are you?

    Me neither.

    I'm skeptical that there was someone filming just outside of the tunnel as the Ferrari came through and crashed. I assume they were filming for a reason and knew the Ferrari and perhaps others were driving fast and sliding/drifting/whatever.

    They were filming for a reason.  All the previous tire marks give it away.

    Surprised he didn't go with, "Mike Pence? Never heard of him."

    It’s going to be fucking hilarious and totally fitting with this timeline if Pence becomes a major voice of the anti-Trump Republicans.

  8. Yeah, Junior, it’s great news that conservative groups are splintering and fighting each other, and in this case they are fleeing Heritage for Mike Pence. That always bodes well for political movements ahead of an election year,

    Right when it's Christmas eve dinner time, every one sits down at the table, about to take the first bite... Just blurt out "so... how about all the stone cold hard evidence trump rapes children? Crazy, huh?"

    Or if it's a praying type of family then offer to do the Christmas dinner prayer and thank the good lord for shining his light on president trump raping children and now all of his christian followers can atone for their sins and fight to have him removed from office.

    I'm starting to think that the timing of this around the holidays when people aren't working will bring it more attention.

    I’m staying with some relatives who voted for Trump and had the red ball caps in the past but they’ve toned down all of the MAGa shit to the point where we saw nothing.  I was expecting Fox News.  They instead keep it on Scripps News whenever I don’t have it on one of those European Christmas market tour things on YouTube.  

    Anyways a story came up this morning over breakfast about Trump riding on Epstein’s plane and the couple watched it and didn’t offer commentary, but they watched it.  

    No idea if this is temporary or just while we are here but seems like they genuinely made the switch.  They have the channel memorized and we haven’t seen or heard shit about Trump out of them them, unlike last Christmas. 

    I’m hoping this is happening more than we see among the more moderates.

    If we can allow the Irish to think of themselves as human beings, then we can let the occasional Englishman think he’s good.
