    Knowing how Trump operates, that speech is the clearest sign yet that he feels like he’s losing the messaging battle.

    Yep.  And that payment to the military bullshit - he's probably thinking that he'll bribe the military into liking the invasion of Venezuela. All it's gonna do is put a lot of down payments on Dodge Chargers or Ford Mustangs (or a motorcycle). Lot of PFC starter kits about to be bought...well they'll get a down payment.

    He can't help but spend that tariff money, but he better save some for the masses next year when it gets closer to November.

  2. OSiNT community a littled riled up because some bigger names took the Russians at their word about a video and it turns out it was not what it was.

     

    GeoConfirmed UKR - Disinformation. (Disinformation refers to false or misleading information that is deliberately created and spread with the intent to deceive, manipulate, or cause harm.)

    Russian forces are seen walking through streets and delivering a speech in a video, claiming they are patrolling Kup'yans'k.

    The footage even includes a map pinpointing the location and in the text with the footage they call out @ZelenskyyUa. However, the @GeoConfirmed

    location, performed by @rndr22 and verified by @Bielitzling, reveals that the patrol actually took place in Tavilzhanka, Kharkiv Oblast, approximately 18 km north of Kup'yans'k. It's particularly concerning that accounts such as @TheStudyofWar and @MilitarySummary accepted and shared this information without proper verification. This is precisely why the GeoLocation community exists: to combat misinformation through rigorous open-source verification.

    He owns the media, he owns the SC, and now he's openly bribing the military with bonus checks.....this is going great

    I wonder if they are having retention issues or he knows Venezuela will not be popular.  He doesn’t like to give money out unless there is a reason.

    Natural gas prices in Europe have all but returned to normal since Russia's full scale war in Ukraine. In fact, the only reason for the spike in 2021 and 2022 has been Russia's energy war against Europe, which started even before the full scale invasion of Ukraine. The numbers clearly say that. 

    It proves many things: Russian energy was never cheap, neither politically nor economically. Russian energy was always unreliable. Russia always needed Europe more than the other way around.

    I saw the downfall of Southstream.

    I saw the downfall of Nordstream. 

    And now the whole European market for Russian gas is getting buried.

    This is what I mean when I say that Russia is losing in the long run. All what you need is determination, patience and tenacity.

    The European market was the primary reason why Russia raked in so much money the last three decades.

    The European customers were reliable, paid well and were easily to access, who in turn put in a lot of investments into Russia. Now all of that is gone because of petty imperial ambitions of a short man who never accepted the downfall of the Soviet empire.

    Russia is now forced to sell oil and gas with huge price cuts, which barely covers processing costs while India and China completely suck out the last bits of life from Russia.

    He finished the full scan but had at least one frequency of interest, and went back to check it.

    He found a signal at 8.613 MHz ... then received the video tape from Carol ... turned off the radio and headed out.

    I feel like he and Carol together can really get shit done.

    That's an outright act of war to blockade a country. Black and white, that's definitionally an act of war

    We're definitely going to war.  Miller is justifying it after Trump's claims: "American sweat, ingenuity and toil created the oil industry in Venezuela. Its tyrannical expropriation was the largest recorded theft of American wealth and property. These pillaged assets were then used to fund terrorism and flood our streets with killers, mercenaries and drugs."

    Taking the Black Sea Fleet out of the game is...something.  That also means if you had some spare anti ship missiles laying around all those ships bottled up there would be sitting ducks.  

    Imagine if we invaded Mexico in 2022 and here at the end of 2025, Mexico is forcing the US Navy to confine their ships to New Orleans, Houston, and San Francisco because they can sink them anywhere.
