  1. The EU line is that Putin is crazy – but the EU is constantly goading Russia, and acting from the basic assumption that they can rely on Putin to behave and respond in a sane, adult manner. Meanwhile the EU is sounding crazier and crazier.
    739
  2. LOL - hospital missile strike - why would Russia do that? - no military benefit, why would Ukraine do it? Major propaganda coup attempt
    451
  3. Nuland says "Americans hate a bully" - she should know. She looks the part, she plays the part.
    430
  4. Georgescu charged with "Being Annoying" - super serious. Pending charges include "Rational Thinking".
    411
  5. Ironic that "isolated" Russia is the only one who can talk to all the many parties that could be involved in a mideast ceasefire.
    265
  6. Ukrainian troops wanted to emigrate to Russia - only way is go to Kursk and surrender.
    218
  7. EU is quickly becoming The League of Chihuahuas
    189
  8. Just finished a book by a Canadian soldier of his WWII experiences ... Baerbock has no idea, no idea. Just a pushy gal who gets ticked if she doesn't get her way. No idea what's she's risking.
    189
  9. LOL Stoltenberg says Ukraine's current errant missile is ultimately Russia's fault - because Russia started the war . Using this way of thinking, the Ukrainian missile that hit Poland is actually Stoltenberg's fault because he pushed Russia with his aggressive NATO expansion. So instead of just saying "oops" here, it seems Stoltenberg really wants to start a bigger war
    182
  10. “Always gift your billion dollar military equipments to your enemy.": Joe Tzu, Art of Dementia
    163
  11. "Illegitimate dictator of Ukraine enraged at Farage telling the truth!" That's the correct headline.
    160
  12. The EU re-builds the Iron Curtain - good work EU. A triumph for misguided nostaglia.
    154
  13. Why does Elensky need a UK passport if he's winning?
    139
  14. Hillary: "My God, the truth is getting out!" "This is disasterous!" "We must stop this ASAP."
    138
  15. Scholz is exceptionally mediocre.
    138
  16. Finland wants peace - but Finland seems to want to join in NATO's war. "We want peace, but let's jump into this ongoing war against our strong closest neighbor". Good thinking.
    130
  17. Speaking of sanctions – when the US embargo on Cuban cane sugar came in, the USA switched totally to high fructose corn syrup. Not a good sweetener, metabolized differently from straight sucrose, hard on the liver, cheap though. It’s in everything now and vested interests want to keep it that way. Given the trends in death stats in the States due to diabetes, heart attacks, and other obesity related diseases - hey! Maybe Castro won!
    105
  18. I think Medevev is talking depleted urainium rounds - in artillery rounds. Cause lots of radioactive pollution.
    99
  19. Like a mouse trying to arrest an elephant - good luck with that.
    96
  20. While the Ukraine military is milling about in the empty Kursk region - Russia should maybe go into Odessa
    92
  21. The best gluers were the ones recently at the Porsche museum - 9 guys glued their hands to the floor to protest Volkswagen. Workers in the museum had to leave for the night so they just left the gluers there. The gluers asked for pots and pans to pee and poo in but none were provided. Also the gluers, despite being on a hunger strike, were distressed that they couldn't order in a burger or two. Not sure of the upshot. Give The Boy a Hand! Could become a permanent exhibit at the museum I suppose.
    92
  22. Seems the EU is a thick layer of entirely unneccessary bureaucracy. Trying hard to justify its expensive existence.
    84
  23. Biden going on about democracy being at risk - then at the last he says: "I UNDERSTAND POWER!" - yep, democracy is at risk alright.
    75
  24. Starmer: "No cost is too great to save Zelenski - the destruction of Ukraine, the destruction of Europe, World War III - mere bagatelles compared to saving Zelenski!"
    72
  25. Kamala re food costs: "More competition but also more price controls and regulations!" Gosh! So many feel good phrases.
    67
  26. Schrödinger's Man Eating Tiger - could be alive, could be dead. Starmer: "lets open the box and find out!"
    65
  27. Kursk sure looks like a trap for Ukraine to me - vulnerable supply lines, hostiles on all sides, turn the flank and those Ukrainians are grade-A stuck.
    62
  28. Our reputation is in Tatters I tell you, Tatters! I am appalled I tell you! Appalled!
    57
  29. Oh, those democratic values!
    49
  30. Britain: "things are falling to pieces around us! - there's nothing we can do though, because it's all Putin's fault. We just have to lie back and take it. Powerless." Except we can blame our own citizens
    49
  31. G7 says: "we're no longer going to give you our freshly printed fiat currency for your gold! Let that be a lesson to you!" Putin scratches his head. "Oh, okay."
    45
  32. Yep - it's not just words from the UK - it's ever escalating lethal aid.
    45
  33. Do the EU folks, ever look at each other and reflect: "Gee, maybe WE'RE the baddies!"
    41
  34. A coup by Twitter!
    37
  35. USA is still upset about losing 13 troops in the Afganistan withdrawal (disasterous) how will they feel about 1000, 2000, 10,000 casualities in Ukraine?
    37
  36. I wish Biden would stop trying to show off his English skills.
    35
  37. Boris in a fog. He'll be making chalk drawings on the London pavement soon.
    34
  38. The mummy walks - Joe looks like he's got two wooden legs.
    34
  39. Russia should now start to use the letter "A". And then "B", and slowly work through the entire alphabet - thus rendering the world speechless.
    31
  40. Consequences? Annalena, Annalena, don't forget that the 6th Army and Army group south are no longer available to you - they disappeared at Stalingrad.
    31
  41. "Hello Putin? It's Ursula, you know, Ursula - it means 'little she-bear', Ursula. Remember me? Can I have some gas, you great big huggable bear you."
    30
  42. Boris and Volodymyr - the new Laurel and Hardy! "Here's another fine mess you've gotten me into!" Who can forget those classic lines? A laugh riot!
    30
  43. Putin says to the West: "OK, Give me your best shot!" - the West responds by banning the letter "Z". Putin is Staggered!. He points out "It's actually an "N" we paint on our tanks. Ya gotta hold your head 'this way' when you read it." "Sorry for any confusion."
    29
  44. "Loser of the Year!" Congrats all 'round! Right up there with "Madame President"
    29
  45. Campaigning Biden says "we have great opportunities" - he then proceeds to mention a whole bunch of problems - problems largely self-generated.
    28
  46. Finland, Sweden: We can’t wait to join NATO - "Mama tells you not to - it's rough in that hood, girls."
    28
  47. I think the weight of fuel dumped on the spinning propellor bent the prop. A direct physical contact would be very difficult to do without full catastrophe.
    27
  48. Best workaround on the devastating "Z" ban is simply to flip all "Z"s 90 degrees to become "N"s. So we then would have Nebras in the Noo, and Nelenski, and the state of Arinona, and nothing becomes Nero. Of course Cyrillic has no "Z" so no action required from the Russians.
    27
  49. They speak the same language - gibberish.
    27
  50. She defines evil.
    27
  51. All those thousands of handy dandy little shoulder fired anti aircraft missiles - manpads - Stingers - etc. that the USA has shipped - can now be bought for a few hundred dollars on the black market. What a boon that will be to world-wide civil aviation!
    27
  52. Blinken trying to close the plane's washroom door - priceless.
    26
  53. USA and Russia are like huge mill stones - and Europe is the grain that's being ground up beteween the uncaring stones.
    26
  54. Get the Duran Hat! Protects you from sun, rain, wind, and misinformation!
    25
  55. A lot of folks want Joe to stay - he's providing cover and protection for them - with Joe gone, all their misdeeds are open for investigation.
    25
  56. When I see Lammy, I can't get Oliver Hardy (Laurel and Hardy) out of my mind... "Here's another fine mess you've got me into!". Laurel breaks into tears..
    25
  57. Putin says to the West: "OK, Give me your best shot!" - the West responds by banning the letter "Z". Putin is Staggered!. Also "Z" turns out to be the first letter in the West's champion - "_elenski".
    24
  58. In Elder care homes perhaps?
    23
  59. They can carry nuclear weapons, so must be treated as though they are in fact carrying them....
    23
  60.  @dirremoire  I've been there - chock full of secret agents. Charming place. In Wales.
    23
  61. When Biden fell off his bike he actually got an unplanned question from the media - "Oh, have you fallen Mr. President?" Biden, on his back: "Of course I haven't! What a silly question!"
    23
  62. So if non-NATO Ukraine "attacked" Poland (a NATO member) - does Article 4 kick in?
    22
  63. When I think of the EU, I see goldfish in a bowl "sanctioning" their unsatisfactory water and jumping out - now they're flopping around on the living room rug, panicking over the concepts of "reversible" and "irreversible".
    22
  64.  @brucetrappleton6984  Just you wait....
    21
  65. Canada is getting embarrassing sadly.
    21
  66. nd that's Putin it mildly.
    21
  67. The EU is sounding like a Mafia boss - "We recommend that you accept our offer. Otherwise things may go badly for you." - a classic line, don't they hear themselves?
    21
  68. With Biden under the bus too - well, I hope it has 4 wheel drive.
    20
  69. "Go fetch Olaf. Go fetch that tank!" Good boy Olaf, good boy! - here's a kibble."
    20
  70. To a very long interrogation for sure.
    20
  71. A certain irony noted - thanks!
    20
  72. Yes, this morning I was looking forward to going back to bed with the wife - but one glimpse of Nuland - and little point going back to bed.
    19

    19
  76. Yeah, we turn the sanction dial and you jump - that's how it works.
    19
  77. That comment about garbage in Puerto Rico is valid, and true - and maybe it would help to shame the USA to clean this up. It's shocking.
    19
  78. Those good old European Values - people in Europe can vote, but if they disagree with us (the appointed leaders) - well, they'll just have to vote again until they get the result that we want.
    18
  79. Starmer Brings Peace to UK! Entire Nation Arrested!
    18

  82. I wonder what the downsides are to Hungary leaving the EU?
    17
  83. because he's forgotton more than he ever knew.
    17
  84. NATO: “Hey Finland, Sweden! We’re about to stage a nuclear war! C’mon in and join the fun!”. Girlish giggles from Sweden and Finland. - Don't do it girls!
    16
  85. A good and clear metaphor.
    16
  86. Caused a bit of a flap. Sort of a Gallic flip flop flap
    16
  87. That early pic of Blinken and Lammy is oddly comedic - like Laurel and Hardy. The Buffoons of State.
    16
  88. LOL - no-one can do "condescending" like Joe "you're talking above your pay grade" Biden
    15
  89. Not sure on the EU protocol here - if a leader has put you on an active "to kill list" - are you still supposed to applaud him?
    15
  90. Heck add a little depleted EU uranium for flavour and you got a good product!
    15
  91. The Mouse That Roared
    15
  92. Ve are vinning, Yah?
    15
  93. Putin's playing the G7 like a stringed instrument - the bigger battle is the dedollarization of the West, and the G7 seems ignorant of this bigger battle they're in ,and losing, doing exactly what the Russian chess master wants.
    15
  94. When Kamala laughs, the world squirms.
    15
  95. The Guardian, the Telegraph, BBC, Channel 4, .. are all blowing through their "credibility capital" at a great rate – valuable capital – hard to get back.
    14
  96. The West with its Russia sanctions is like a crazed gym instructor - "I'm going to up your exercise regime, make the stationary bike harder - that should really make you a lot weaker!"
    14
  97. Obama: I had a drone!
    14
  98. LOL virtue signalling with other people's lives - tank crews - very virtuous.

  99.  @everready800  he hits above his weight
    14
  100. He's a wonder-man!
    14
  101. It'd be a good move - and might help stop the war - and save some of those they've left behind (unless Ukraine holds family members...)
    14
  102. From war grave in Kahima northern India: "Dear Charlie, to all the world you were only a soldier... To us, you were all the world.”
    14
  103. Pompeo says any sign of weakness is bad - and then the USA trots out Biden. The mind boggles. Wait, let me check...yes, yes, the mind boggles.
    14
  104. I suspect those advisors will never leave the steelworks - the AZOV guys will prepare unmarked graves for them.
    14

    14
  109. I wonder if Elensky talks in Germany he'll mention Germany's heroic stand at Stalingrad.
    13
  110. The EU looks less and less appealing. Expensive and dangerous to join.
    13
  111. Speaking of these mercenaries - Canada was all atwitter because a Canadian sniper (civilian) who just seems to like shooting folks from a distance with his fancy deer rifle, is volunteering to go and shoot folks in Ukraine. The MSM is treating him like a hero rather than a creep. Gad. Snipers go because they like shooting people and they can do that in Ukraine.
    13
  112. I understand that Musk was born on the US Embassy grounds in Cape Town - defined as US soil.
    13
  113. Ursula says the EU should invest in fusion - hasn't worked for anybody so far, but it's in keeping with Ursula's style of dreaming.
    13
  114. Loved Nuland's form fitting parka! Very Chic.

    13
  119. Yep, he was the guy: : "I know a hundred ways to get the bear out of the cave, but I don't know single way to get him back in."
    13
  120. How do amateurs dive that deep (need special gear and gases) and set those tons of explosives on 4 major pipelines so that the special explosives have effect under super high pressure deep water?
    12
  121. "Russia is leveraging off the incompetence of Western leaders" - so true. And now, now we have in the UK a new leader with the brain of a bee and the face of a herring. This should go well.
    12
  122. Yep, leave NATO and get all those NATO troops and bases out of there.
    12
  123.  @meathead919  Imagine how poorly Russia would be doing if you made up even bigger numbers!! You could depopulate the place!

    11
  141.  @pl3317  probably Jack Ruby's grandson will appear, and...
    11
  142.  @RSingh100  A certain irony I suppose.
    11
  143. EU: "We need a bigger begging bowl."
    11
  144. EU saying tanks are not an escalation, but a "response" - I believe that escalation is defined as a series of growing responses.
    11
  145. The USA is coming accross as a "Karen" - "Do you know who you're talking to?". "I can have you fired you know".

    10
  155. Boris's plan sounds like a fever dream out of a home for old generals - bizarre - a fantasy world. He's living up to his hairdo.
    10
  156. Re the drone thing - There was a big wedding planned in Sevastopol , and Russia thought it safer if all those "wedding killer" drones were removed from the area.
    10
  157. Great intro Kamala! Nice assortment of good english words, and I'm sure you made some fine points!
    10
  158. This whole thing reminds me of the family celebration of "Festivus" in Seinfeld TV shows - "Festivus" consisted of "Feats of Strength" and "The Airing of Grievances".
    10
  159. To paraphrase the strong EU statement on the Syria massacres: "Oh, dear!". "those rascals we support. tsk tsk"
    10
  160.  @AlexanderMisaThiefandLiar  Nice try - mega flop old chap.
    10
  161.  @nats50  Didn't Bismark or somebody say: "I know a hundred ways to get the bear out of the cave, but I don't know even one way to get him back in."
    10
  162. He reminds me of JarJar Binks - repellent. Smelly?
    10
  163. Maybe once the "man behind the curtain" is seen manipulating things, it weakens the obvious manipulator. Nice if a volunteer force could campaign on line for Georgescu - even though he is silenced.

  167. and a paper party hat!
    10
  168. According to U.S. Flag Code, the flag should never be displayed upside-down “except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.” Well, well.

  169. Alex's podcasts are timeless - classics that never age.
    9
  170. The cheat sheet has the questions as well as the answers in sequence! - Nice if a reporter got the questions out of sequence - so then Joe could answer question 3 with question 2's response. Could maybe make more sense.

    9

    9
  179. Well that attempt at propaganda should have a backfire effect. It reveals too much about the one creating/giving the propaganda.
    9

  186. "Ukraine has the worlds richest soil..." fully enriched with depleted Uranium.
    9
  187. "...we'll grant you a 6 month waiver" - Oh, thanks, we've made a note. Not really long enough, or firm enough, for planning though. Actually we prefer to deal with someone reliable.
    9
  188. Love it, Alex says of a politician (the Romanian guy), using a tone of incredulity, that some of his policies are quite rational!!

  199. 4 minutes in - and I'm 33rd. Gad! Speed readers in the fan base.
    8
  200. I though the "S" in BRICS was Serbia. Of course it's Spain (smacks brow).
    8
  201. NATO: “Hey Finland, Sweden! We’re about to stage a nuclear war! C’mon in and join the fun!”. Girlish giggles from Sweden and Finland.
    8
  202. The best Bush moment for me is still his vomiting into the Japanese Prime Minister's lap. On 8 January 1992, about 8 20 PM JST. A whole new section in the US Diplomatic Protocols manual.
    8
  203. Love that clip of Boris with his fright wig on, talking to the one other guy there who's actually asleep. Rave on Bo-Jo!
    8
  204. Yeah, those Manpads and Stinger shoulder fired anti-aircraft weapons - a few thousand of those circulating in Europe may have an impact on civil aviation. Nice.
    8
  205. Part of him suspects though.
    7
  206. I hope that arms dump is "wired" for total destruction. "Let's get out of here - oh, and set that timer..."
    7
  207. BTW your camo-green jacket is so much better than Elensky's sweat shirt. Very becoming.
    7
  208. If an army confronts the Canadian army all they have to do is use the wrong pronouns and the Canadians dissolve into tears.
    7
  209. Even with Nuland gone.
    7
  210. "Oh Mammy! " Trudeau sure does a great blackface - he's another Al Jolson.
    7
  211. I'd check that sofa that Erdogan made Ursula sit on.
    7
  212. It's amazing what a starving man will pay for food.
    7
  213. "The farce is with us" - Gen. Cavoli
    7
  214. The inner mechanic is revealed - smoke pouring from a car - Alex: "that car is not in good shape"
    7
  215. He's just one of the Ukranian politicians that Zelensky locked up.
    7
  216. Well, if they do - that leaves Boris in an awkward position.
    7
  217. I notice Putin can casually "shoot his cuffs" while climbing stairs - Biden meanwhile......
    7
  218. Tucker is trying...
    7
  219. So the new name of the USA Ukraine operation is: "Signifcant Bureaucratically" - a dandy name. Sums it right up.
    7
  220. Yes, such a rich field to choose from.
    7
  221. The Economist works well here.
    7
  222. Boris: A limitless source of twaddle. If only we could harness it for the good of mankind.
    7
  223. Russia should intercept the radio from Azovstal and then do a prank call to them from "Zelenski" - saying it's OK to surrender.
    7
  224. first 20 club! Getting there.
    7
  225. Estonia is right on! It can maybe defend one inch of NATO territory. Good. Every bit helps. But which inch?
    7
  226. It pretty well ensures that Russia has to take it all over. Then Elensky (by himself) can join NATO.
    7
  227. Janet tells Africa - "We'll take your resources, and print up some dollars to give you. Sound good?"
    7
  228. Can they name hurricanes after Ursula? Or is that a "reserved" name? I propose naming hurricanes after politicians.
    7
  229. A silent "P"? PNATO - OK sounds good. Like Ptarmigan,
    7
  230.  @rexrathgeber9447  Saskatchewan - Canada's fairest and flattest province.
    7
  231. The UK is not "The Mouse That Roared" - it's "The Mouse That Keeps making Snarky Comments" - and it's going to get swatted.
    7
  232. Germany was run by Goebbls, USA was run by Gerbils
    7
  233.  @SFDPSFDP  The Chicken of Kiev.
    7
  234. I think we're getting the geopolitical version of "pilot induced oscillation" - just release the controls and it'll right itself.
    7
  235. I wonder if the attack was one of those "little suprises" that Nuland promised Russia - it sure fits.
    7
  236. Informally referred to, amongst those who know, as "The Inflation Induction Act"
    7
  237. The garbage carried out the trash.
    7
  238. It's not just the density of uranium - but the uranium metal actually sort of self lubricates its way through the steel - excellent at armour piercing.
    7
  239. They meet in a bathtub apparently.
    7
  240. At the inauguration a nice touch would be to have a contingent of Van-der-Lyen look alikes all scooting around serving Hors d'Oeuvres and drinks.
    7
  241. Ursula: "My world view is in tatters! Tatters!"
    6
  242. Macron wojuld make a good soldier - being short he'd never have to duck.
    6
  243.  @gingerfox7143  Car accident on the Beltway? Yes, the best "no answer" of all.
    6
  244. As a new Prime Minister is installed in the UK, I hear the official ceremony of "Passing the Red Nose" can be quite moving.
    6
  245.  @jacobjorgenson9285  False flag? How did the Ukrainians get out a commemorative stamp so promptly? Time travel?
    6
  246. To the Lithuainian guys arrested for putting "Z" on boards - better to just put " ebra", or " ulu", or " aire", so that people think "Z" without seeing it - much more powerful.
    6
  247. I note that there's a lot of ashphalt (tar) in EU roads, just sitting there. Surely this could be taken up and reprocessed into useable petro products - like oil and gas - or just burned for heat! No, no, don't thank me Ursula!
    6
  248. The EU line is that Putin is crazy – but the EU is acting, constantly goading Russia, with a base assumption that they can rely on Putin to behave/respond in a sane, adult manner. Meanwhile the EU is sounding crazier and crazier.
    6
  249. Laugh is all she's got, so she did. But it was a sad laugh.
    6
  250. "We are changing people's lives!!" - uhh , yeah, you're wrecking them - and we wish you'd stop.
    6
  251. Even if the piper is demonstrably crazy - we still dance to his tune. So, who's crazy here?
    6
  252. Like Biden - un-nice and insane
    6
  253. Yeah - that 80 billion given to Ukraine is about $3000 to every man woman and child in Ukraine.
    6
  254. Alex - remember, for Macron it's not Flip Flops - but Strategic Ambiguity
    6
  255. When you put a washing machine chip in your missiles, make very sure it's not on the "delicates" setting.
    6
  256. Perhaps the US can send out a world-wide request to all couintries that they schedule their concerns and meetings all be scheduled from 10 to 4Pm EST.
    6
  257. You could get a real Russian hawk instead of rational, careful Putin.
    6
  258. Maybe the BB presser is simply to let Joe go on with no support - a crash and burn exit.
    6
  259. I think you mean "Governess" of Canada.
    6
  260. Proper runways should have a gravel bed run-off area - like the run away truck areas on freeways. There's been lots of delays getting this recommended change implemented world-wide.
    6
  261. If a country can't pay in a money the seller can use - it's sort of like not paying. And of course the West confiscated 200 billion or so of Russia's foreign reserves - so, Russia does not want to build up "confiscatable" reserves. Doesn't want to give the gas for free. Sort of understandable why it requires rubles now.
    6
  262. I propose her for the "Nordic Horned Helmet" award.
    6
  263. with CIA help
    6
  264. Bigfoots? Surely the plural is Bigfeet?
    6
  265. That's a great military strategy: "Gosh, I hope they run out of ammo!"
    6
  266. I’m not sure Russia wants the sanctions removed – they seem to have actually worked to Russia’s benefit so far.
    6
  267. "Mad Vlad threatened to kill me!" - recollections may vary.
    6
  268. Exactly - it was a brilliant move by Kissinger to set this up for the USA. Now the smartest guy around is Lavrov, we'll see what he gets going.
    5
  269. Bad weather - OK if you're on instruments - but if your GPS is spoofed...fatal.
    5
  270. Bon Voyage Justin! May you go far and stay long.
    5
  271. His "blackface" is great though - masterful.
    5
  272.  @maetos  The suspicion here in Canada is that Trudeau is actually Castro's illegitimate son. Timing of a diplomatic trip to Cuba sort of fits.
    5
  273. I see a rattus rattus at 6:50 or so. Cautious though, fast. A survivor. From behind the lamp post.
    5
  274. And in tatters.
    5
  275. Yep, "Bungling Brothers'" Circus. A laff a minute, thrills, chills, freaks! Entry not free, but mandatory.
    5
  276. re flys: In Canada we have a "dragonfly on a spring" - a realistic dragonfly model mounted on a springy wire that you put in your hat - this apparent dragonfly dancing around your head keeps the bugs away (the smart ones anyway). A boon. Available at Lee Valley.
    5
  277.  @albundy4367  Soviet? Do try and catch up old chap.
    5
  278. Yes, says Biden I will shuffle again.
    5
  279.  @janejames5862  He seems to be shrinking actually.
    5
  280. Biden is a student of language - that was in old English Gibberish.
    5
  281. And the Eagle too.
    5
  282. Those neo-con planners have been playing faar too many computer video games. Remember when your mum tripped over the computer power cord? That's reality. It ends the game.
    5
  283.  @Robert53area  How can he resign? He has to sign (like on a will) "Being of sound mind and body, I, Joe Biden..."
    5
  284. That little carry-everywhere stand that Macron has to use, is the very one (I've seen it in a Paris museum) that Napoleon had to use to see above his troops. Amazing that Macron could get the use of it - a nod to history I suppose.
    5
  285. Does Nostrademus mention Ukraine joining the EU? What comes after that? We want to know.
    5
  286.  @longw01  The guy said it would float. Damn him.
    5
  287. He could be arrested now.
    5
  288. It's a tsunami of Western propaganda - and everyone else chimes in repeating what they've seen and heard - it's the madness of crowds - and a great example of how hate can be stirred up and judged OK
    5
  289. Starmer wants UK boots on the ground – well, that should help solve the UK’s white-anglo demographic problem.
    5
  290. Being sanctioned becomes like a badge of honour! Surely we can come up with a medal to be worn proudly by the sanctioned!
    5
  291. First 100 club! It used to be easy to get a "first"! Not any more - congrats Alex!
    5
  292. “The Ukraine defence is crumbling in Donbas” - “And The Economist is Humiliated”
    5
  293. Face it Kaja - Marco's just not that much into you...
    5
  294. One minute - not first, but getting there!
    5
  295. Biden got Corn Pop to take down those party balloons. Real stuff. Not a joke.
    5
  296. May be good to get another translation besides The Guardian's one.
    5
  297.  @alexg7836  It was just sitting there - until poked.
    5
  298.  @TEXHO3OHA  create a desert and call it victory.
    5
  299. I'm rather surprised that the EU didn't support France and mandate a cap on Argentina's goals.
    5
  300. Boris does give good advice: His first suggestion to Trump is: "Ignore my suggestions"
    5
  301. Hunter is making sure Joe doesn't inadvertently blab a bit a grift evidence.
    5
  302. ​ @urrywest  Hillary, Maddow and Kamala - "Bubble bubble, toil and trouble"
    5
  303. And the frog too - it will always be tricked - it's in its character.
    5
  304. The American people seem so totally out of touch with Whoopi. So annoying.
    5
  305. Great! A clear two bleat comment!
    5
  306. Thought it was a brain - turned out to be a walnut.
    5
  307. He does seem a little pale.
    5
  308. Yeah, the MSM is a tsunami of misinformation and propaganda - some of it super inventive, but they've lost their credibility.
    5
  309. Wonder how many flag signers are still alive?
    5
  310.  @HenryTownsmyth  Hard to get that first lock which requires vision to aim.
    5
  311. Ursula's tools were all applauding.
    5
  312. Yep, Boris could open "Bungling Brothers'" Circus. A laff a minute, thrills, chills, freaks! Entry not free, but mandatory.
    5
  313. They just scream senslessly to be polite.
    5
  314.  @joseaguilarjr660  With bad hair.
    5
  315. 4 minutes in - comment 36 - are all you guys speed listeners?
    4
  316. Oh youknow - Biden.
    4
  317. First! My dream!
    4
  318. Ask yourself whose propaganda have I been exposed to? Whose version of reality? And are you sure you're right?
    4
  319. A fitting end to the "activate the switches" ceremony would have been complete darkness.
    4
  320. "Boris's commitment to closing up Russian society remains an example (bad) to us all:...
    4
  321. Yeah, the USA is the one country that has a job classification of "War Fighter". Constant work available from the USA.
    4
  322. A match made in Heaven! 🥰
    4
  323. On Japanese ZIPAIR's problem - simple solution - just tilt the "Z", it then becomes "NIPAIR" . Problem solved.
    4
  324. It takes a lot of energy/money to build out renewables, to build the generation, the storage - to go green. Too bad the EU no longer has that excess energy/money. These self-imposed shortages sure put a grade-A crimp in the EU's green energy plans. In extremis, (energy emergency) it's easier to revert to coal.
    4
  325. Trudeau resigns? Well, Justin time I would say.
    4
  326. She could afford to lose a bit.
    4
  327. Once starlink goes to inter satellite links by laser (mk II) it'll be a lot harder to jam. Or maybe a laser loaded hostile satellite to keep the Starlink laser links over loaded - like a DDoS attack.
    4
  328. Totally agree - the slick, perfectly coiffed, perfectly made up, perfectly smiling, apparently rich, news commentators in their glitzy news rooms - sure don't connect with me - or, I suspect, anyone else.
    4
  329. With much "help" from the West.
    4
  330. can you watch BBC in prison?
    4
  331. UK boots on the ground? Well, that's another way to reduce the white anglo demographic.
    4
  332. The War Party in the EU seems to be mostly women - Ursula, Kallas, Meloni, Annalena - I imagine their "coat of arms" would be crossed rolling pins over a frying pan on a field of arugula.
    4
  333. For the next peace summit perhaps they could rent Fantasy Island.
    4
  334. Does the Pentagon have a job classification of "anonymous official"? The place appears to be packed with them.
    4
  335. Trump seems to have the brains on his side. On Kamala's side we have the vacuous.
    4
  336. Yes, "satiated" is the word he wants
    4
  337. Or his famous Piglet imitation.
    4
  338. It's props - imagine if he dressed like the multi-millionare he is - it would sort of cheapen his message.
    4
  339.  @milangacik-repcik1224  She is a woman of many parts.
    4
  340.  @moyrablackie1  Macron is more like Those dwatted Wussians wuff, wuff
    4
  341. Better to let him be - so he can fully enjoy what he's created.
    4
  342. Yes, I've heard coughing fits that made more sense.
    4
  343. He should announce it while he is still able to get out a coherent phrase.
    4
  344. Can't we create a protected workshop where all these erstwhile leaders can be placed and kept happy making imaginary deal after imaginary deal with each other?
    4
  345. "Are the Ukrainians winning or not losing?" - "yes".
    4
  346. It actually appears stronger
    4
  347.  @mddell24  EU sheepherders have a problem - all their sheep have no fleece and are getting cold and riled.
    4
  348. speaking of shareing data - one advantage of going off SWIFT is the fact that all your governments and bank financial transactions are now hidden from the NSA, CIA Lloyds etc etc.
    4
  349.  @donmiester45  Those are mice, actually.
    4
  350. Sums it right up - a concise and accurate summary.
    4
  351. I think Boris' hairdresser is a possible Russian agent.
    4
  352. Clooney's been taken in by 9 years of poisonous, over the top, anti-Trump Dem propaganda. Maybe he's starting to realize how 180 degrees wrong he's been - and how he's been played.
    4
  353. Denmark: "No Danish soldier was killed." Was a Danish pilot killed? "Oh, well, cough, cough - no Danish soldier was killed"."
    4
  354. It really was a "guilty" verdict for the Democrats - showed Democrats guilty of perverting justice and emulating Nazi and Soviet show trials
    4
  355. We can't all be first!
    4
  356. That Jens Stoltenberg guy (head of NATO) sure has power! With a single initiative (pushing deeply into Ukraine) he single handedly set up the defeat of all of Europe - he won the war for Russia! Amazing! What was his brief again?
    4
  357. Who's side is Elanski really on? He seems hell bent on eliminating Ukrainians.
    4
  358. Nuland would be great if cast as "Nurse Ratched" in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest".
    4
  359. What books did Boris gift Zelensky? I assume they were a Peppa Pig series. "Peppa Does Ukraine" is a good one. "Peppa Meets Javelina", another corker.
    4
  360. Would have been nice, when Schwab asked for questions, if some ironical soul on the far right of the audience had asked if he was allowed to speak.
    4
  361. The West believed all its own propaganda - not a good way to go. Like Hitler saying Russia will collapse like a house of cards.
    4
  362. "Set 'em up Joe!"
    4
  363. If you shut off all your paper (money) you send to us, we'll shut off all our energy, fertilizer, rare earths etc. we send to you. A fair trade.
    4
  364. Boris: A limitless source of twaddle. If only we could harness it for the good of mankind.
    4
  365. Yep, wiring the storage areas, or stacking stuff in non-approved ways so that a missile or two can take it all out. Alternate is to booby trap some munitions - so that they look fine but blow up in the cannon or firing tube.
    4
  366. It takes a lot of energy/money to build out renewables, to build the generation, the storage - to go green. Too bad the EU no longer has that excess energy/money. These self-imposed shortages sure put a grade-A crimp in the EU's green energy plans. In extremis, (energy emergency) it's easier to revert to coal.
    4
  367. 1 hour in and 880 comments - is there a first 1000 club?
    4
  368. Sheer proof! Amazing! Finally. The wonder weapon Ukraine needs.
    4
  369. "flatten the curve" - is that like changing the past? I guess if anybody can do that it's the NYT.
    4
  370. Judas at the last supper: "it's on me guys, I just came into a little cash"
    4
  371. I can see that headline - "Biden elected! - Nation resigns."
    4
  372.  @chacelancer4411  That's the desired narrative you've got there.
    4
  373. @Truth Serum yeah, but with no food - little need for TP
    4
  374. Yeah, locally we have a square (Centennial Square) designed as an architectural tour de force - no-one goes there - sterile - an exercise in swooping concrete, but no place for people. Disregarded places nearby are vibrant, luckily ignored by the brutalist show-off architects.
    4
  375. Yep, tried to make him look ridiculous. Advice from Elenski's directors and make up team.
    4
  376. USAID has overegged the propaganda pudding. Most folks now can clearly see the "invisible hand" manipulating the news. Once the man behind the curtain is exposed - the "magic's" gone. These now malfunctioning agencies should be shut down - a lot of money for negative results.
    4
  377. Sounds like Biden is believing his own propaganda - he's Delusional, Doddering and Dangerous - he has to go - he's a risk to the USA and the world - could kill us all with his incompetence.
    3
  378. That'll work. "Peace my children" - then a soccer ball in the head.
    3
  379. FIFA should hold a final ceremony where Elenski can score an own goal!
    3
  380. Great vid as always! I note a 3 legged dog at 13:13 and a body on a bench at 27:55, your show truly has everything!
    3
  381. "Ladies and Gentlemen we are now thinking about a landing, our flaps don't work, we have some icing, but no worries, the 8 pilots we have on board are now discussing forming a steering commitee."
    3
  382.  @sheilamartin1577 by a cabbage?
    3
  383. Biden's deciding to try, and then doing "Happy Birthday" in front of the Nation...Where is Simon Cowel when you need him?
    3
  384. Well yes, but they make more sense.
    3
  385. Biden's blowing whatever credibility capital he had left - making statements that folks can easily see are demonstrably false. After awhile it gets annoying. Instead of creating reassured friends - it loses them.
    3
  386. I don't know if that's a mixed metaphor or just brilliant!
    3
  387. If a bunch of U.S. missiles come deep into Russia - how will Russia know if they are nuclear tipped or not - should Russia initiate MAD protocols right away? Or wait.
    3
  388. Is the head screaming or the running body?
    3
  389. Zelenzky cutting off gas - looks like the pipeline he's cutting off terminates in Hungary - is that true, or are there more branch lines? A way to punish a non conforming EU memeber?
    3
  390. He doesn't look a day over 51!!
    3
  391. A big field
    3
  392. Keith Starmer - I'm reminded of an old Globe and Mail (newspaper) front headline - "Trudeau Returns - Nation Resigns".
    3
  393. Like a football team caught in a spelling contest.
    3
  394. Heck Annalena - why stop at 360, there's 720, 1080 degrees - many, many to choose from.
    3
  395. He's a simple man.
    3
  396. It's a sign of Lewi body disease - the patient has realistic delusions and hallucinations - I had to deal with an elderly relative who had it - scarey indeed. "The man with the knife behind you! Don't you see him!!?' - disturbing. Keep Joe away from any red buttons.
    3
  397. A tale for Janet: A flea market Vendor I know had among his wares a rarish tea cup - a buyer came by and said he'd been looking for that teacup pattern for decades - how much do you want?. My vendor friend, holding the tea cup, replied $10 - a pretty good bargain. The buyer replied "Oh, no, I can only give you $2." My friend just dropped the teacup, let it shatter on the concrete. True.
    3
  398.  @David.Dahlia  In UK 1000 million is a Milliard, a million million is a billion. But maybe old school now.
    3
  399. Too bad about the date mix-up Alex. But I know your troop of faithful commenters are looking out for you, and kindly pointed this out.
    3
  400. From Canada: We have an inflatable toy for a Prime Minister. Note that he never uses a fork....
    3
  401. LOL - Sunak is weak, but Boris is crazy.
    3
  402.  @Samoasoa  He has access to the Presidential Gurney.
    3
  403. Tragic, it could be so magnificent if only it weren't for Putin.
    3
  404. LOL - the last thing Putin wants is to get rid of an incompetent adversary. "don't stop him digging" - don't stop an enemy making errors.
    3
  405. Biden letting the American public know - "You, the people, are the enemy." Nice.
    3
  406. just south of Paris there is a quaint model of France - everything in miniature "le parc France Miniature" - 5 hectares - complete model of all of France - pretty cool. I understand Macron is angling for the job of running this attraction. He's certainly the right scale.
    3
  407. So the EU is working to wreck their own in-country food production, in favour of importing cheaper food from sketchy old Ukraine. That should work out well.
    3
  408. So the EU splits into 2 factions - the countries with smart leaders, and those with idiots in charge.
    3
  409. OK - maybe a metaphor too far. ??? But keep up the good work.
    3
  410. recall the address Biden gave to the nation backed by red, low lit drapery with armed guards on each side - such Nazi-decor like it was very, very spooky.
    3
  411. Sanctions work if they are against a smaller opponent - key is to recognize who is the smaller party. If they are against an equal or greater, opponent then they in effect sanction the sanctioner.
    3
  412. It's all very simple. The West wants Russia's stuff. All of it.
    3
  413. When winter hits the EU, I look forward to the MSM reports on how sunny and warm it is all over Europe. And how we can expect yet another unseasonal heat wave. With photos of bikini clad babes sunning themselves on the beaches.
    3
  414. I see why Beyonce stayed away - in all the confused enthusiasm she could have ended up as the Democratic candidate!
    3
  415. Yeah they called him "Betray-us"
    3
  416. Don't mention "hope" - that's the Democrat's main plank - hope, eternal, pointless hope. It sounds so good doesn't it - "we have hope" - We can "give you hope". We don't have to do anything - we just say that we can give you hope. Vote for us - and you'll get a good dose of "hope".
    3
  417. Looks like the Ukrainian sharpshooter was holding a shotgun - useful for birds with all its little lead pellets, but for a jet fighter? I wonder what his "lead" on the target was?
    3
  418. Correction Alex - Putting sanctions on a gymnast and the leader of the Orthodox religion - don't do "nothing" - they have a big effect - against the EU.
    3
  419. Ukraine: "we're participating in an advance!" "Russia's"
    3
  420. The USA: "We had to destroy our values in order to save them"
    3
  421. No Private Partz?
    3
  422. I like KJP's outfit - looks like a nurse - maybe all the Whitehouse staff should wear medical whites
    3
  423. I suspect Russia invited North Korea in just to troll the West - keep 'em distracted, keep 'em looking at squirrels, while we quietly remove their jewelery and money.
    3
  424. Playing that USA peppy patriotic tune as Biden wanders off - perhaps the Looney Tunes "That's all Folks!" would have fitted better. At half speed.
    3
  425. How come the Kiev airport is still open? Is this where all the guests fly into?
    3
  426.  @MrRoyalbeers  A highly useful service, given the huge quantity of fake media and junk media out there - to edit and curate all this to get to the kernal of truth - it's great!
    3
  427. I think you should switch your channel - your speculations sounds like what we know about Ukranian troops - so to quote someone: "you should be careful what you believe and use your head to decide what is truth." - well said, act on it.
    3
  428. Speaking of those possible mercenaries in Mariupol - Canada was all atwitter because a Canadian sniper (civilian) who just seems to like shooting folks from a distance with his fancy deer rifle, is volunteering to go and shoot folks in Ukraine. The MSM is treating him like a hero rather than a creep. Gad.
    3
  429. France is now using AI to generate wine reviews. (they don't have to make sense)
    3
  430. Putin is the adult, the moderate - who would replace him - a Russian uber-hawk?
    3
  431. No, Zelensky leading Ukraine is a real benefit to Russia
    3
  432. Why wouldn't Biden get a brain freeze?? - Oh. I see.
    3
  433. Sorry we didn't get an Alex voice over for the Trudeau/Xi Jinping discussion. - Xi: "Justin, I want you to go out directly and cut me a stout willow wand." "I feel you need firm lesson.".
    3
  434. I always thought clowns were a bit scarey - Boris certainly come across as a scarey clown - sinister is the word.
    3
  435. Or depression/sadness - "I really f'ed up. I hope no-one notices.".
    3
  436. Biden is just a walking, tottering, shuffling PR disaster. Nice camel hair coat though.
    3
  437. Soo - is Paypal going to fine itself for unintentionally (it claims) puting out false information about fines for misinformation? Maybe a class action be appropriate and each of us gets a $2500 credit to our accounts?
    3
  438. At 30:40 would have been a nice opportunity to contemplate that knackered Jaguar as a timely symbol of the faded UK....
    3
  439. It's like a world leaders' game of "Old Maid" - no one wants to end up with Old Biden.
    3
  440. Sorry we didn't get an Alex voice over for the Trudeau/Xi Jinping discussion. - Xi: "Justin, I want you to go out directly and cut me a strong willow wand." "I feel you need a firm lesson.". "Oh, OK Mr. Xi (sob)".
    3
  441. Good idea - though the exact opposite seems to be happening.
    3
  442. I think your alternate history conjecture is correct - if Trump had got in, there'd be a lot more Ukrainians alive..and a lot more happy Europeans.
    3
  443. Use the Past invocable tense - "we could have did done it" - best for dry game.
    3
  444.  @TruthBot1984  and replaced it with a stoney silence? Or with cheers recorded from previous games and goals?
    3
  445. Second! You lucky devil!
    3
  446. Asking 3.5% of GDP is a bit risky - as GDPs shrink the absolute amount gets pretty small.
    3
  447. USA: "sorry EU, ya just gotta learn to swim - so we've cut your lifeline - good luck!"
    3
  448. LOL the real insult to Americans is KJP's blatent, lies and absolutely patronizing information-free responses to legit questions. Her tired tone when she says "I've explained this before." "you dummy"
    3
  449. If that tortoise was the EU - it would have said: "F-off Alex! I know what I'm doing. This is not a net. I'm fine. Forward!".
    3
  450. Bill is 78? why I remember when he was just 33 and a third
    3
  451. A short skit.
    3
  452. Well, that should cause rancour, not cooperation.
    3
  453. Yes, Joe is not getting out much these days - some difficulty in locating translators that are fluent in Gibberish.
    3
  454. 18 minutes and 135 comments - whoosh! 136th!
    3
  455. Canadian kids are taught about Mr. H.'s facists - and that we Canadians are so ethically far above those horrible 1930's German people! Didn't teach that the Germans were ordinary people (just like Canadians) but they got totally misled. We're seeing that now in Canada as the popualtion is learning, and taking on, the Gov't approved hate for an ethnic group.
    3
  456. Spelling corection: "Americans tend to RUIN the shows where ever they go,"
    3
  457. A small outfit sanctioning a large outfit - net result: the smaller in effect ends up sanctioning itself. Russia is doing fine under sanctions - it only helps the West to lift the sanctions..
    3
  458. Putin doesn't want to flatten Kiev, or Odessa - historically signifcant Russian cities - so he must be very pleased that Ukraine is gathering its army in the Kursk salient, so they can be wiped out with little concern about collateral damage.
    3
  459. Seems Elensky wants to eliminate the Ukranian population - sounds like a genocide to me. An internal one.
    3
  460. Let's hope they don't annex the rest of the alphabet! The thouht leaves me speechless!
    3
  461.  @cango5679  Yes, and it was a RED apple!!!
    3
  462. for sure - but what if the replacement is competent? Actually in that case would probably have entierly different goals.
    3
  463. It was semi-live. Lke Biden.
    3
  464. Da!
    3
  465.  @danl5592  you can say that again!
    3
  466.  @jeffm8423  Sounds it.
    3
  467. Could be OK - Macron, being quite short, would never have to "duck!". A good advantage.
    3
  468. While U238 itself isn't madly radioactive - its "daughter" products - the elements produced when it decays (including polonium218, Radium226, lead214 etc.) are more radioactive and dangerous. A long lasting poisoning of an area.
    3
  469. If Russia withdrew - there'd be a massacre when the Azov guys returned to all those "collaborators".
    3
  470. "We're going to steal all their shit " - Sleepy Joe can't say that - he has real trouble with sibilants. It's the teeth I beleive.
    3
  471. “You’ve never had it so good!” - Harold Macmillan. “You’ve never had it so bad!” – Boris Johnson
    3
  472. It'd be fun to go through that Bloomberg article and use a yellow highlighter on all occurrences of "may", "maybe", "could", "possible" etc. It seems a simple stew of speculation seasoned by loaded words and misrepresentations. Yum.
    3
  473. Stealing of Russian citizens' assets is so similar to the progression of the nastys in Germany in the 1930's. Amazing - history ryhmes for sure.
    3
  474. Alex - stick a mini rear view mirror to your smart phone - we don't want you sneaked up on....
    3
  475. Ironically, it seems that Putin is the main man trying to finesse the West away from Nuclear war.
    3
  476. The great Danes turn out to be chihuahuas
    3
  477. Trudeau’s response should have been to throw his apron over his head and rush off in confusion and distress.
    3
  478. After Sleepy Joe, the succession leads to Kamala and then to Nancy Pelosi - and she, with her little old lady quavering and curious gestures sure doesn't look like a candidate with an image of strength. I wonder what Marvel comics could do with this trio of "Super Heroes"?
    3
  479. The PAYPAL thing is scarey - they have access to one's linked bank accounts and charge cards - and now, at their whim, they can take out $2500 - done deal. Impossible to get back. And then maybe they do it next month too. I'm out. Wonder how easy that will be though - to get one's personal financial info deleted from Paypal.
    3
  480. We had "Freedom Fries!" Now we have "Freedom Wings!" Yum.
    3
  481. If you sanction everybody...It's sort of like sanctioning yourself
    3
  482. 5 minutes in, and - 50th! - shucks
    3
  483. A conundrum: the picture of the pet shop at the end - vs. the Eu gathering.... Which picture had more birdbrains?
    3
  484. Elensky: "I am the only undefeated man in the whole world!"
    3
  485. Take the show on the road, play the provinces, the church halls - it'll be a laff riot!
    3
  486. Biden's speech at the UN? I've heard coughing fits that made more sense. He loves the phrase "when hope and history rhyme" - sounds pleasant - but seriously - what the heck does it mean? Ask yourself. Ask him.
    3
  487. Form a circle!
    3
  488. Alex, the line between the news, and the clown world is starting to blur...
    3
  489. Ok - a new record - 1 hr = 941 comments. Someone should chart this metric....
    3
  490. Orban is the only one who gets it. EU is in a war and is weakening itself, losing, by "supposedly" helping Ukraine to fight - nope - EU is being played and doesn't know it. The win Russia is going for is the end of the EU and of NATO.
    3
  491. How does that Lithuainian thermal plant fit with the EU's green initiatives?
    3
  492. EU shared values: begging, censorship, bullying, massive bureauocracy, general incompetence. Keep the flag flying!
    3
  493. How about a tariff on cocaine?
    3
  494. Ahh, Paree! Romance, charm! Jill on the streets of Paris, playing the wind-up organ, with a trained imp on a string with a cup for the money.
    3
  495. I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot Pole.
    3
  496. Hard to see the German parliment giving a standing ovation to the agent of much of their weakening and impovershment - Zelensky.
    3
  497. I think if you want to "look strong" in front of Putin - first step is to appear smart, intelligent, realistic - not dumb like now.
    3
  498.  @jacekboczarski6698  Sounds more like reality in the USA or UK - only better!
    3
  499. Dear Elenski: May you go far. And stay long.
    3
  500. Number nine - after 1 minute
    3
  501. Interesting aspect of your reporting while walking around - this connection to the real world gives your reports a definite quality of credibility - so unlike the over produced, over packaged propaganda sessions of the MSM.
    3
  502. Borrell - there's a wolf in sheep's clothing in your garden! - "My goodness, Biden. What big teeth you have!" "Your own?"
    3
  503. Don't let the bar-keeper tell you no!
    3
  504. US Planned it all, knew the timing, it got delayed. Threw the warning off. Acting now like a guilty kid.
    3
  505. Disney may want to cast her in the Snow White remake - as the evil queen. She'd be perfect!
    3
  506. Swiss Peace and Lonely Hearts Summit.
    3
  507. The Schadenfreude Hour
    3
  508. Lith replies" "yap, yap, yap"
    3
  509. Much funnier if it starts: "A horse backed into a bar..."
    3
  510. The US Archives could save a ton of money by renting lockable garages in Florida!
    3
  511. It's a technique....
    3
  512. Is that really Boris? It's not high enough quality to be a deep fake...
    3
  513. Or Melvin the Puny? Not even a commemorative teacup.
    3
  514. Ursula: If you use all of EU's resources to make Ukraine an "undigestible steel porcupine"....you end up making Europe very digestible....
    3
  515. How far do you have to be from the US to be disqualified as an expert?
    3
  516. I see "We Joan" as a production where they (Joan) are portrayed as Siamese (conjoined) twins. One identifying as male, the other self identifying as female. It would address many current issues.
    3
  517. Exactly! Well said.
    3
  518. "likely to be low" - yep, there's that official guessing again from that official spokesman
    2
  519. I think the Arabian countries are thinking - "why are we fighting each other?", and it's dawning on them - It's because the USA has been manipulating us all to fight, and to keep divided.
    2
  520. Or Ukraineophilia. Or both.
    2
  521. How can Putin retaliate against red lines that only the West said he was concerned about - Putin could care less about a tank model or a short range missile model - he just deals with them. A Putin stated redline is important - don't confuse his real red lines with Western propaganda fantasy ones....
    2
  522. Who speaks for the interests of the average Ukrainian? Certainly NOT Zelensky. He's getting the young guys, the sons, fathers etc etc. off to be killed. He's decimated Ukraine.
    2
  523. except itself (under Biden)
    2
  524. Sounds like the general was quoting out of the first year textbook at military college. The first chapter titled "The Bleeding Obvious".
    2
  525. Taking down the crucifix is sooo patronizing - it assumes the G7 attendees simply are too weak, too sensitive, to be able to survive seeing a 490 year old religious relict - we have to protect these weaklings!.
    2
  526. You should do another Trudeau/Scholz dialogue - but difference this time is that Trudeau gets the line: "Olaf, you idiot!" (in the nicest possible way)
    2
  527. I see the entire US government leading from their respective hospital beds - worked great for Lloyd Austin.
    2
  528. Yahoo! First!
    2
  529. It's like the White house has become a "protected workshop" - where the handicapped can work and produce happily without answering to the real world.
    2
  530. This Christmas - give the grift of Ukraine. It just keeps on giving.
    2
  531. Better than King Tut or Biden!!
    2
  532. That sloped roof explanation is sooo lame - let us know who made that decision - to put delicate secret service guys' "safety" over doing their duty. It's so indefensible that it's suspicious.
    2
  533. Real concern is that the CIA and Elenski are going to up their false flag game, from civilian rocket massacres of their own citizens, to a small nuclear explosion to blame on the Russians.
    2
  534. With BOJO arbitrarily pulling millions out of both Scotland's and Wales' budgets to give to Ukraine, money that was targetted for Scotland's and Wales' health systems and poverty support... maybe we will see the UK breaking up - he really is a bull in a china shop.
    2
  535. There is a lot of use of the word “hope” on the West’s side. Barack was always big on it (he had a one-word "HOPE" poster), and Brandon, often trots out his carefully memorized phrase of “maybe now hope and history rhyme”. I find it useful to recall that hope is a synonym for “wishing”. Substitute “wishing” everytime you see “hope” trotted out. It clarifys.
    2
  536. Washington offers assistance to Ukraine: "fight harder!". And "We'll give you even more assistance next week!"
    2
  537. He has a heated moat.
    2
  538.  @hilldweller8610  LOL, sure.
    2
  539. Holy insult Guy! I am Robin, the boy wonder! The unafraid budgie smuggler and sidekick.
    2
  540. NYT says Russian weapons are no good as they only caused 19 deaths - sadly NYT is thinking in terms of US strategy - that of maximum shock and awe and civilian deaths - the US measure of sucess. That's not Russia's way - they strike key infrastructure with precison weapons to keep collateral damage down.
    2
  541. Alex is so much better than the hyper, shouting, commentators from the West!
    2
  542. Trump - don't eat those chocolates!
    2
  543. Sounds like a good challenge to the 3 stooges - "Zelensky, Selensky, and Elensky" - a zany laff riot!
    2
  544. Yeah, Zelenzki could become a martyr and be replaced by someone competent - just let him continue digging.
    2
  545. Democrats are going to hi jack the elections - voter fraud, compromised voting machines - dangerous, dangerous people. Now very hard to remove.
    2
  546. So if Finland ever plays hockey with Russia again maybe label the Russian Players "A', "B", and so on - until we run out of un cancelled letters.
    2
  547. Time looked at re-issuing Little Lulu comics, but nope, too text dense.
    2
  548. I knew it - Kamala is choosing a token white man to be her VP. Just pandering as usual.
    2
  549. The Dems over egged the pudding - their narrative got so hysterical and irrational that it worked in reverse - who are these raving guys with their bizarre stories? I don't want those loonies in charge.
    2
  550. The last 5 years.... we had Biden obviously dangerously ga-ga, and the media constantly trying to justify insanity, combined with the strange WOKE mind virus - that dominated all discussions - it's like we're awakening from a fever-dream.
    2
  551. If you believe that Stoltenberg deserves a Nobel Peace Prize - I have a Nobel Peace Prize to sell you.
    2
  552. He's just totally weak - a class-A wimp.
    2
  553. Thanks to Poland a new concept has entered the financial canon - gas laundering!
    2
  554. Kamala comes across like she's talking from an old folks home - sad, defeated and weak.
    2
  555. I can see why Russians would be affected by those socks: "I trample on Russians", so similar to the German period where little catch slogans like: "I trample on Jews" were quite acceptable.
    2
  556. One EU leader already has socks that say "I Trample Russians". Very similar to the German period where "I trample Jews" was quite an approved sentiment.
    2
  557. Man, when you line up Biden, Yellen, Blinken, Kamala, John Kirby - they all look sorry, like they’ve already lost – seems a line up of real losers. Not a good face (or faces) to present to the world. Ineffective, mentally negligible, untruthful. Not worth negotiating with or talking to, as they’ve admitted that lying and negotiating in bad faith are two of their main tools.
    2
  558. Another flakey comment from Kellog.
    2
  559. Zelenski did some heavy lifting a few days ago - says now he needs a Truss. "Liz" brand preferred.
    2
  560. I see a great Harlequin Romance novel. Whoosh! She, a high powered but lonely bureaucrat, he, a bear riding but sensitive dictator. Thrown together at a G20 conference. They find love.😍
    2
  561. The French/Ukraine agreement - aqppears to have lost something in translation.
    2
  562. So NATO membership means if one NATO member is attacked, then all NATO members join in to help - so what is the role of NATO if a NATO member attacks another country (say US attacks Russia, or Poland attacks Hungary) are all NATO members now at war too?
    2
  563. I guess if the EU countries send all their Russian weapons to Ukraine then they'll have to buy lots of US weapons to replace them.
    2
  564. Like the church of Globalism.
    2
  565. Second peace summit - might best be called the "Pieces Summit".
    2
  566. Well, if Ukraine (or remnants) is to be welcomed into NATO - that leaves Russia with no option other than complete takeover.
    2
  567. The West offers Ukraine assistance in the form of advice: "Fight harder", "Use less ammo". Gee, with good tips like these victory is assured.
    2
  568. A super visual! Thanks! It so fits!
    2
  569. Elensky should stop while there are still a few Ukrainians left to save.
    2
  570. Now if Russia produced a coin made out of captured US artillery pieces - I could buy that.
    2
  571. I apologise for calling you a "sulky Liver sausage". I was wrong - you're more like a moody bratwurst.
    2
  572. Looks like Biden is trying hard to disassemble the United States. Just who is he working for?
    2
  573. EU will be sanctioning Heaven next - no Russians allowed in.
    2
  574. Did Biden pardon Hillary?? A get out of Jail free card - nice!
    2
  575. The entire western media has lost its reputation. Even the BBC. Once that trust goes – impossible to get it back. A huge loss for the West.
    2
  576. As long as he gets paid in Rubles or gold
    2
  577. But no leaf blower - so I found it quite OK
    2
  578. They only scream senselessly to be polite.
    2
  579. Where is the real Lloyd Austin?
    2
  580. The EU is doing all it can - and all it can do is pass resolutions - spinning off into a dream world.
    2
  581. Last thing Putin would want - getting rid of an adversary's incompetents? Not a good idea - let 'em keep digging.
    2
  582. A certain irony here - the main “benefit” that Globalism advertises is we end up with one big happy world – no more warring countries – great! So nice in theory. But to get there, we need a huge, maybe world ending war. Really nice. To quote a US officer in Vietnam:“We had to destroy the village to save it.”.
    2
  583. Ukrainian math - remember the Ghost of Kiev? He tossed a hand grenade, and killed 10 Russians! And then the grenade exploded!
    2
  584. First?
    2
  585. The West moves from the Golden Age to the Golden Shower Age.
    2
  586. Kissinger's proposal seems to be 30 years out of date. Ignorant of the new realities. Perhaps, like Joe, he's past his "best before" date.
    2
  587. NYC - the "symbolic warrant" - nice. Fits with the "Ghost of Ukraine". Populating the dream world.
    2
  588. Biden just keeps bob bob bobbing along.
    2
  589. The EU becomes the old authoritarian Soviet Russia. Keep those values going!
    2
  590.  @galaxyrider9599  Check -
    2
  591. Ukraine War? Is this the Nuland/Zelensky love child?
    2
  592. China and the USA are so tied together economically that going to war with China would be like conjoined twins deciding to fight to the death.
    2
  593. Putin is winning, draining the West, and the West, for its part, is actually fighting now against Farage, who's simply saying - "stop playing Putin's game - get out and stop the losing!" . Shows how far Putin's got into the West's minds.
    2
  594. Back to sleep Kissinger - on your bed of your native earth, Oh, and stay out of the sunlight.
    2
  595. For sure - once the other side knows you've cracked their code - your advantage is rendered useless.
    2
  596. Full of Ebras, Ebus but with ero ulus.
    2
  597. Difficult to hit the black keys.
    2
  598. Good plan - send over balloons - use up the Ukrainian defensive ammo.
    2
  599. The Democrats in the USA got hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and they have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - but currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness, the control of vote counting - and will be very hard to excise.
    2
  600. All the USA military training assumes a base of air superiority - this doesn't apply in Ukraine - so training is less than useful.
    2
  601. Compare Lavrov's speech of controlled rationality, with Joe Biden trying to find his way off stage....Someone do a mash-up please!
    2
  602. Hold up a vial of lip gloss? Fools the UN.
    2
  603. I see them in colorful sleep wear and capes - funny sort of superheroes.

  604. Seems to be a rule re naming aircraft carriers - Lincoln, Roosevelt, Eisenhower ...- I wonder when the aircraft carrier "Biden" will be laid down.?
    2
  605. How many politicians does it take to fix a turbine? Well, none, but we can put a spin on it.
    2
  606. Price caps - A tale for Ursula: A flea market Vendor I know had among his wares a rarish tea cup - a buyer came by and said he'd been looking for that teacup pattern for decades! - how much do you want?. My vendor friend, holding the tea cup, replied $10 - a pretty good bargain. The buyer replied oh, no, too much! I can only give you $2. My friend just dropped the teacup, let it shatter on the concrete.
    2
  607. We are going to sanction Russian statistics - does that make sense? It keeps us happy.
    2
  608.  @d1c186  Pay no attention to the couple behind the curtain!
    2
  609. How can Russia keep firing those million dollar missiles? What’s that you say? They only cost Russia $10,000 each? Oh. OK.
    2
  610. Hunter Biden's paintings have plummeted in value. The fickle world of fine art eh?
    2
  611. judo moves...use the enemy's momentum against him.
    2
  612. The Democrats in the USA got hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and they have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - but currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness, the control of vote counting - and will be very hard to excise.
    2
  613. The USA could have planted remote control explosives years ago - makes sense they would do this.
    2
  614. Inflationistas. They're out there.
    2
  615. Western leaders are coming across - not as leaders, but as rather dim victims - they even claim to be dim victims! Amazing.
    2
  616. Alex, please never mention hanky-panky within an hour of Nancy Pelosi ever again. I think I've just been rendered impotent.
    2
  617. Yeah the "hatred for Trump" - has been largely created by the Dems' and supporters propaganda. Little substance behind the hatred that's being pumped. Maybe the key message is that one side (the Dems) are stirring up hatred and division. Not good for the US for sure.
    2
  618. Where did all the Russian missiles come from, that ruined all our many (taken as fact) speculations??? Maybe just good planning.
    2
  619. The Stoltenator - he looked so happy when the senile one, presented him with a book prize or whatever it was. NATO touted as a dragon, but now we see it's actually an inflatable swimming pool toy.
    2
  620. Yes, Mrs. Trudeau's little boy. Mostly harmless.
    2
  621. Boris - the bizarro Churchill.
    2
  622. Putin will encourage the West to drain themselves, letting the West throw as much as they can into Ukraine for disposal - and then gloves off and take over Ukraine.
    2
  623. I think that it'd be prudent for high level Russians to just stay out of the air - you're way too vulnerable in an aircraft.
    2
  624. Speaking of the plan/wish to balkanize Russia - I note on GOOGLE EARTH that Russia is displayed by default, as being apparently divided into many smaller regions - provinces? - I note that no other country has these division lines shown.
    2
  625. gad, so now we'll have Ink and Irconium!
    2
  626. Love that French strategy:"Strategic Amibiguity" - I think it actually translates to vagueness and confusion.
    2
  627. Biden was quiet because the official Whitehouse ventriloquist was off sick.
    2
  628. Biden has tried several dirty tricks to get Trump out of the picture - weaponizing the judicial system, draining him financially, false narrative character assasination - none worked. But now they are cementing a loser (Biden) as their candidate - to me this implies the Dems still have confidence in getting Trump out of the picture somehow. Their options have narrowed...worrying to say the least.
    2
  629.  Modi WhinyThePoor  Singapore has some super places for sure!
    2
  630. I can think of some great posters - featuring that quote and an image of a guilliotine.
    2
  631. Ursula's problem is that "people are not believeing OUR narrative - we must pre-censor all others."
    2
  632. Well, the USA is putting their Patriot System's reputation on the line for all the world, for all potential customers to see. If they’re flops - big buck losses for the States
    2
  633. I suspect Russia did a "pre emptive Force Majeur" using the missing turbine as the reason - with the FJ in place Russia is no longer held legally to the gas contracts. They can now freely ignore the contract stipulations - if they want.
    2
  634. If you've got big pipelines in deep water - it takes a heck of a lot of properly positioned water proof explosives to fight against the water pressure....
    2
  635. Hey Zelensky - better to be seen as weak, rather than go to war and prove it.
    2
  636. He shold retire to spend more time with his family.
    2
  637. Wonder if Elenski will make a few ga-ga statements? How stable is his translator?
    2
  638. Wait, we can't all be first!
    2
  639. Is the EU (Europe) going to run out of money? Having to spend more for energy, donating big cash to Ukraine, more businesses leaving and shutting down and more refugees to be supported - at some point surely the EU will have nothing to trade for energy...
    2
  640. Trump seems to be prepping the West for a "graceful" exit from Ukraine, so even if Ukraine becomes Russian, the USA comes out with acceptable winnings.
    2
  641. The West wants Russia's oil more than Russia wants the West's fiat currency. Price caps? A non-starter.
    2
  642. Next for that Ukrainian plane, scrawled = "For a good Time, Ph 1-800 -Elenski 69 (toll free)"
    2
  643. Biden - thinking? BWAH HA HA
    2
  644. The West and the Wall Street Journal are getting a bit berserk - tying in and mixing things up - seems insane.
    2
  645. When Finland's mission statement is cut down to the essentials like that - I wonder how many Finns would be supportive?
    2
  646.  @FunnyBunny-pd5xx  Ruthenia? Well, that's where Ruthenium was first found
    2
  647. BIDEN: "I know the big man on campus!" "He's talked to me and everything!".
    2
  648. Pretty sure Biden wanted to take out Trump - some very suspicious lapses of security....sins of omission.
    2
  649. hoping to be first! Nope, 24th.
    2
  650. Von der Crazy - I said 100,000 KIAs - those are cars right?
    2
  651. I wonder why the West keeps poking the bear? For fun? Didn't Bismark or somebody say: "I know a hundred ways to get the bear out of the cave, but I don't know single way to get him back in."
    2
  652. It's the petro dollar - US can just print more and use them to get what it wants - sort of for free.
    2
  653. LOL I could see Richard Gere coming back to the USA now we have a rational administration.
    2
  654. better make sure that the hidden UK trainers don't use fitbit devices...or cell phones
    2
  655. US in a conflict with China - "Uhh, China, old pal , we're a little short on artillary shells to shoot at you, can you maybe produce some we can buy from you? Are regular fiat payment arrangements OK?"
    2
  656. The Pipeline removal - no involvement of any US government agency - according to Blinken - I suspect it (an act of war) was initiated and carried through by Biden and the cabal in the Whitehouse - all on their own, bypassing gov’t approval - using”slush fund” money.
    2
  657. Worry is that a large concentration of Russian troops is hit by a tactical nuke. That then gets blamed (somehow) on the Russians themselves.
    2
  658. Heads - I win. Tails - you lose.
    2
  659. The EU: "We had to destroy our values in order to save them"
    2
  660. I'm waiting for Elensky's green outfit to match the green of the green screens - it's a great effect when it happens.
    2
  661. I can see young guys joining up to get money for his family - a sad thing. Don't do it.... From war grave in Kahima northern India Dear Charlie, to all the world you were only a soldier. To us, you were all the world.”
    2
  662.  @stephendgreen1502  we don't worry about ore deposits because the ore isn't on our land, in our food, or in our air. DU is. While U238 itself isn't madly radioactive - its "daughter" products - the elements produced when it decays (including polonium218, Radium226, lead214 etc.) are more radioactive and dangerous. A long lasting poisoning of an area.
    2
  663. Kamala's talk was just fine - for a kindergarten class maybe. For folks and kids beyond Grade 4 it was positively squirm-worthy.
    2
  664. CIA gives the Whitehouse a list of Russians to sanction - based on the Moscow phone book - as provided by Christopher Steele. These things don't come cheap.
    2
  665. Meanwhile, in "Boris's Hints to Homemakers", he recommends UK homemakers purchase new kettles.
    2
  666. Thought the same thing - "I have some EU energy to sell you"
    2
  667. or a comma.
    2
  668. I think he may develop a dandy medical problem - orrr - he could be poisoned and the blame put you-know-where.
    2
  669.  @billburnhope2176  Oh, absolutely
    2
  670. Trump and Putin - we both want this war to end - how can we "spin" our respective sides - so we both appear to win. Working together.
    2
  671. Ursula: "Thanks to our sanctions, Russians are now just living on POTATOES - their economy is in TATERS, TATERS, I tell you!"
    2
  672.  @robertgadziola1601  Check a mirror? She's tried - they always break for some reason
    2
  673. dump in blocks of dry ice.
    2
  674. No Clown World? Maybe fill with your famous Trudeau impression - him being sorry that he couldn't provide a clown world for you.
    2
  675. or two.
    2
  676. “Always gift your billion dollar military equipments to your enemy.": Joe Tzu, Art of Dementia
    2
  677. So the truck bomb had large rolls of construction film - that accounts for all the "confetti" seen in the vids of the explosion
    2
  678. Boris knows that Elensky has a ton of cash and properties stashed away - Nice to have rich friends.
    2
  679. Biden singing “Happy Birthday” – arggh – it’s like in the movie 2001, where the HAL 9000 super computer, as he’s being slowly disassembled against his will, starts singing songs from his early training period - “Daisy, Daisy, …” and just sings slower and slower, deeper and deeper, down to incoherence. Sad and grotesque.
    2
  680. WAPO "anonymous sources" - we're doubting that source now - they've done "A little bird told us", I'd suggest they start with "Aliens told us that...."
    2
  681. They've gone mercifully hoarse.
    2
  682. Trudeau is a Judo master - Back Belt? Hah! Much more, he's at the Black Suspenders level.
    2
  683. It's very hard to recognize the devil.
    2
  684. "Who knew her wooden leg concealed a mini-gun?" says surviving team leader from hospital rooms 141 and 142.
    2
  685. Lindsay Graham telling Zelenski that "not one real person (an American) has been killed - just a bunch of foreigners - thank you!"
    2
  686. Nothing like a curvey woman in overly tight jeans and high-heels to get the respect of devout muslim diplomats...
    2
  687. Odd that apparently Iran's desire to harm the USA (by killing Trump), coincides with Biden's desire to save the USA by targetting Trump.
    2
  688. Looks like Biden is trying for a double win - have Trump assassinated, blame this "act of war" on Iran ... and away we go.
    2
  689. A bit concerning that the pranksters could call up the European leaders, pretend to be Putin, and declare war.
    2
  690. They have an odd number of people now, so we have to get one more to match up with little Dwayne.
    2
  691. I wonder if actor Elensky is aware of Shakespeare's stage direction "Exit, pursued by a bear". Might be good to review.
    2
  692. Alpha particles if emitted inside the body (from ingested or breathed in particulates) do the main damage to DNA. Plus the U238 has a whole list of very radioactive daughter products including radium - not good inside...
    2
  693. So... the EU Chihuahua is fighting the Russian Husky, in order to scare off the watching Chinese Rottweiler. Good Chihuahua thinking there.
    2
  694. That concocted nord stream cover story reads like a comic book - something for kids that has no possibility of working in the real world.
    2
  695. I could see a Time cover with the EU and NATO as prostrated maidens with Elenski looming over as "Nemesis".
    2
  696. More sanctions - seem to backfire quite perfectly - and now tariffs - aren't tariffs just like sanctioning yourself?
    2
  697. That's a lotta love
    2
  698. Sorry, you mean Orro. What One are you in? Ariona?
    2
  699. Our sanctions are in tatters! Tatters!
    2
  700. You are the man!
    2
  701. Boris is not only irrelevant, he demonstrates that he's spectacularly irrelevant. Alien articles? Why, thank you Boris.
    2
  702. The ZZZZelenski PR guys are in danger of over egging the pudding. The propaganda is so over the top that "belief cracks" are starting to appear - folks are saying this is just too ridiculous and too hateful.
    2
  703. Air superiority. Possibly a Siberian Grouse.
    2
  704. which of your enemies are you referring to?
    2
  705. Seems the vids of NK troops are actually of penguins.
    2
  706. Used to be in the States the pres. was there as a tempering force - like Kennedy stopping LeMay invading Cuba and deploying nuclear weapons - the current admin is simply missing in action - and the crazies are running wild. A ship with no captain in a sea of icebergs.
    2
  707. Be satisfying if the Russians could use an air defence system to shoot down the planes delivering the Ukrainian's air defence systems.
    2
  708. God smiles on you - but he's a bit of a trickster...
    2
  709. I suspect Russia invited North Korea in just to troll the West - keep 'em distracted, keep 'em looking at squirrels, while we quietly remove their jewelery and money.
    2
  710. Depends if it were floors or solid earth - 20, 30 stories - no problem. Just count the floors and then go off. Current ones can do 20m of solid reinforced concrete.
    2
  711. UK is into poisoning the land one of the world's major grain suppliers. Gad!
    2
  712. Stupidity is a greatly unappreciated force in human history.
    2
  713. Europe is being played by the USA - they are the mark in the poker game. And they don't know it - DUH - such innocence.
    2
  714. If the US is providing location info to enable an attack on the Russian AWACs plane - a plane critical for manageing an air war - implies that Ukraine is going to get F16s or equivalents.
    2
  715. Most experts can be bought, or threatened.
    2
  716. foist?
    2
  717. Or sees any Russian aluminium, titanium, rare earths, uranium
    2
  718. One of the longest titles I've ever seen!!
    2
  719. Thank goodness the US forced all Russian assets out of the US banking system - Russia's assets are safe. Whew!
    2
  720. Laughing at your own joke - but that's OK - it's a good one.
    2
  721. Ukrainine troops were trained the Western way - "assume total air superiority" - so yes, they do have to be re-trained - to get rid of the Western methods and assumptions
    2
  722. Re the hospital missile - It is a bit odd to see leaves still on the nearby trees - usually a tree is stripped clear by any nearby explosion of any size.
    2
  723. LOL - there was no free speech in Nazi Germany - there was the Party narrative and that was it - if a German had a radio that could receive British broadcasts - they could be executed. It seems to be starting again. That poor CBS woman (free speech caused the holocaust) has it 180 degrees wrong. Amazing.
    2
  724. Took a heck of a lot of EU time and EU resources and many EU meetings (with lunch) to get the exact, exact correct price cap for Russian gas. I can see them all on the deck of the Titanic measuring and remeasuring to get the exact placement of a deck chair.
    2
  725. How does Biden punish Big Oil? By sanctioning them? That should work.
    2
  726. Ia Austin OK? he seems smaller and a bit pale.
    2
  727. For the US in battle it's important to have equal numbers for white deaths, black deaths, female deaths, and trans deaths - fair is fair. They're on it.
    2
  728. My dignity is in tatters! Tatters!
    2
  729. Tanks these days seem pretty well useless unless you have air superiority. Just lumbering targets.
    2
  730. Elenski: "We're not interested in ultimatums. Take it or leave it!".
    2
  731. Trudeau: "Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, let me go Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, For meee." Olaf Schultz: "Trudeau you idiot, what are you saying? What about my turbine?". "Oh, sorry, Olaf. I was just singing."
    2
  732. Zelenski goes country and western "Tears in My Coke - Over You"
    2
  733. Sorry, not pizza, it's now pia. Please keep up.
    2
  734. Another mistranslation - it was a COUPÉ - seen in Moscow. A four-wheeled closed horse-drawn carriage for two persons inside. Extraordinary news from Ukraine intelligence.
    2
  735. So Ursula wants to "siphon off" gas intended for Germany? I believe her quote was "we can steal some of the Russian gas - no problem!"
    2
  736. Boris wants to carry out uni-lateral disarmament - a brave move!
    2
  737. Yes, in Poland you'll see us training women to stand in front of Russian tanks. Our main line of defense. It's part of our new set of WOKE strategies.
    2
  738. He showed up for a double tusk removal.
    2
  739. UK's Ben Wallace says the UK military can learn a lot from the Ukranian troops, I understand those Ukranian troops were trained by the Western militaries. What is Ben saying? Maybe the Western curriculum has a few holes?
    2
  740. "I am definitely not a crook!", I told Corn Pop. "True story"
    2
  741. Russia is happy to have Ukraine keep draining resources and money from the West - (the larger war). Every bit of aid to Ukraine is a win for Russia.
    2
  742. They regard an apology as a mistake.
    2
  743.  @aliciaczechowski3281  But the dog isn't talking. Gave a false name - Montmorency he claims. Ha! It is to laugh.
    2
  744. Netanyathu is growing more and more terrorists as he goes along.
    2
  745. Imagine Kamala in place of Vance - it make me wake up screaming.
    2
  746. The G7?? They all looked like sulky liver sausages. Except Biden, he looked like a lost corndog.
    2
  747. There seems to be an easy counter to the "glue yourself to something" strategy - which is simply: take no action. Come back in a week.
    2
  748. Sad that the young impressionable kids who beleived the Western propaganda are now ending up trapped (no passports) or dead - and all for the wrong side, fighting for the AZOV facists, and for the millionaire oligarchs (Zelenski and co.) who looted Ukraine.
    2
  749. Biden was always unpleasant - and he's getting more and more so.
    2
  750. The mess in S Korea? where from? It sure has the Biden signature - of fouling things up.
    2
  751. "Peace through strength" only works before a possible conflict. During a conflict it just leads to escalation.
    2
  752. We can see it coming - Blinken finds that American citizens are interfering in the US elections by actually voting the wrong way. Must be stopped!
    2
  753. I think Trudeau would like the freedom of leaving politics, so he could indulge his penchant for doing "black face" skits that he loved so much. A real crowd pleaser they were.
    2
  754. He's the biggest asset Russia has.
    2
  755. No, please. Not possible.
    2
  756. Could very well have been a plot to assassinate Trump - but not from Iran. Has the earmarks of an inside job.
    2
  757. Or score an own goal.
    2
  758. Yes, but a note of caution too....
    2
  759. A year ago AnnaLena said Germany can negotiate with Putin, "only if he changes his position by 360 degrees "- Putin should have said "OK, we can do that! Let's negotiate!"
    2
  760. So Bush excused his lapse into truth by saying "75" - the old age excuse. I note that Biden is 79.
    2
  761. No Russian ever called me a far right white privileged domestic terrorist garbage.
    2
  762. I think Russia and China are playing the West into draining itself, destroying itself, dividing itself. Keep Ukraine going for as long as possible. The West continues to be sucked in and continues to weaken itself. Meanwhile, below the radar, China and Russia go from strength to strength.
    2
  763. Gosh, when all the German troops go to Ukraine, it might be a good time for Russian troops to take 50,000 or so holiday travel packages to Germany.
    2
  764. he's just pretending to be a goof - what a card!
    2
  765. Anonymous EU spokesman claims that Russia is weaponizing EU stupidity.

  766. "The Idiot's Guide to Misgovernment" - V. Zelensky
    2
  767. Fish jokes? Batter up!
    2
  768. That's only because he is.
    2
  769. Pathetic Boris - maybe he should limit himself to just farting in Putin's general direction.
    2
  770. Biden is just like Hitler at the end - Germany had failed Hitler, so he thought to destroy it totally - Biden seems to want to destroy Ukraine totally - eliminate the population - just out of spite. An evil guy.
    2
  771. Russia is not playing the West's game. Sure, Russia fients some warlike moves from NATO et al, but on the strategic, economic, political fronts Russia is winning big time and continues. West doesn't even know it's being played. Check the number of friends the US has, how the economies of the West are doing.
    2
  772. If you sanction everybody and everything, it's sort of like you're sanctioning yourself.
    2
  773. Siemens is trolling the German government - showing up the idiocy of the politicians - the idiots that Siemens can't make see sense.
    2
  774. Yes, I was wondering that too. Artifical arm maybe?
    2
  775. Maybe Blinken knows that if all of the US gov't says Russia did it - it's pretty well an admission of US guilt. So by saying "it's in no-ones interest" is a cleverer way to support a false flag.
    2
  776. If you put a piece of pitchblende (uranium ore) in a cloud chamber it pretty well saturates it - so many radioactive emissions - spectacular - due to the daughter products of the uranium accumulated in the ore. That's the danger, plus the uranium is vapourized when used in a shell - the small size of the particles mean they are NOT excreted from the body - just like the nano particles from diesel.
    2
  777. LOL - the White House is discreditting itself - defending the indefensible - there are so many videos that show Joe as a goof. A rich field. You say it's just too many to bother demonstrating them as fake - really? just show the real footage - easy. Worth doing if you can. Not doing this implies you can't.
    2
  778. The Nobel Pieces Prize?
    2
  779. Seems Bolton wants Assad gone, wants Putin gone, wants Erdogan gone, wants Maduro gone - actually most leaders he wants them gone. I think he wants everyone gone - sounds like a frustrated grumpy old man. Looks like one.
    2
  780.  @gregoryjones2457  Not enough? Needs a higher price, then there will be enough.
    2
  781. Can quotes from the Koran be classified as "hate speech"? - or do we get two tier censorship too?
    2
  782. fly over the cities with infra red cameras
    2
  783. Totally disagree - those moments are what connect Alex to reality and to his audience.
    2
  784. Already in the USA we have the famous Rutte 66.
    2
  785. Could it be? First?....nope.
    2
  786. USA is sounding like: "It was the other guy" - sounds pretty suspicious, pretty shrill - guilty even.
    2
  787. He was close to "getting lucky"
    2
  788. Yep, free speech, but not a peep. People know.
    2
  789. How big is Snakes Island compared to the central square you walked around?
    2
  790. Seems a bit Ironic - Hillary wanting to imprison americans who spread misinformation. Plus, it's Kamala that Putin would prefer as Pres, so the MSM is playing right along with this.
    2
  791. Wonder what Zelensky means by a "preemptive strike"?. Exactly what is he hoping to pre-empt or stop? I think it would be more of a “start” than a “stop”. Russia has multiple submarines around the world. Even in the best scenario it will have enough weapons to destroy Europe and the big urban centers in the US.
    2
  792. Mr. Moon is so proud of you
    2
  793. Can to UK end them though? Would require cooperation from Russia and that might not be forthcoming...
    2
  794. "Ukraine Fatigue"? Surely it's cured by suppositories?
    2
  795. NATO: “Hey, Finland, Sweden! We’re about to stage a nuclear war! C’mon in and join the fun!”. Girlish giggles from Sweden and Finland.
    2

  797. To have "peackeepers" seems that first you need peace. Otherwise you're just sending in war-fighters to a war zone.

  804. I like that Nancy and her hubby are known to often taiwan on. (you have to say it).

  805. Elon is an oligarch with a difference - he honestly wants to make a difference in how the world runs - electric cars, rockets to Mars etc. - progress - and he's realizing that a nuclear war would put a grade-A crimp in his plans. And he's maybe getting updated on the true situation in Ukraine.

  806. EU to China: "WE WILL NAME AND SHAME YOUR COMPANIES!..." - China's response: "in the words of your great Western philosopher, Musk, - Fuck you".

  808. The Telegraph style guide is: For "winning" substitute "losing" - and so on.
    2
  809. Seems the EU politicians are all off target as usual - they're all pseudo-concerned about citizens suffering and having to do with less (tsk, tsk) - more important to them I would think, is the weakening and impoverishment of their respective nations - shrinking wealth, shrinking power, shrinking options and growing irrelevance.

  812.  @richardyatesyates3893  Let NATO in - but don't let them out.
    2
  813. Yep.
    2
  814. Kursk was a trap set by the Russians - brilliant. US intel could see there was an easy invasion/incursion route, told Elensky - too easy. Suckered in.
    2
  815. It's proving a long process to get free of Biden's personal Ukraine obsession. All the West bought in so easily. Now the guy who drummed it all up is gone, but the momentum carries on, mindlessly, pointlessly, tragically.
    2
  816.  @mochiebellina8190  Nope, but Biden tops them all - latest speech he comes across as a staring unblinking zombie. Totally weird and spooky.

  817. Alex, we hear that all the deserting Ukraine officials are bolting to live in Cyprus. "It seems a nice place." They were heard to say.

  818. "Hello, Javelin help desk","Uh huh, uh huh - OK, why don't you just try re-booting it?". Ukrainian kicks the thing. Call suddenly ends.

  819. Wonder how big the pipelines leading to and from Germany's emergency gas supply are. Can they carry 100% of Germany's required gas flow?

  821. tired, brave old vets - having to listen to a war mongering president. They know...he doesn't.

  822. Kamala's a step above Biden - when her teleprompter hicupped she didn't just read out - "error 404 page not found" - Joe would have simply read it out as given. Of course could have been a system 32 error - so we got a riff on 32.
    2
  823. LOL if things contnue as they are – the EU waning, draining itself, and Russia growing and thriving, Russia may soon have a border problem, as impoverished Europeans try to work their way in.

  824. Gold is denser than Uranium - not a bad idea to use it instead. Except for the way Uranium behaves in a shell - it sort of "self-lubricates" its way through steel, thus much favoured, despite its poisoning effects.
    2
  825. So the member states pay the EU - and then the EU pays them back their own money for various things. Such a deal.

  832. Good old Habeck - he doesn't know that cashflow is like oxygen for a business - can only do without it for a short time - then you're dead. The body, or the business, doesn't just "rest" until the oxygen (cash flow) comes back - it's dead and gone.
    2
  833. Amazing how the West "weaponized" its financial advantages - SWIFT system, The Petro Dollar, Trustworthy Financial system - for short term "gains" and has now lost these huge advantages, these crown jewels. I suspect the decision makers in the West had no idea of the foundational nature of these things and the huge advantage sthey gave the West - now all gambled away.

  834. Yes, apparently. But he has "Depends".

  837. So 4 or 5 AZOV guys have dizzy spells - have to have an investigation, could be a callous attack! But the Ukranian missile (a Tochka U) - anti personell design - that came from direction of Ukranian forces and that killed many civilians at the train station - no need for an investigation here! Tell me LIz, - do you ever get dizzy spells?
    2
  838. The buzzing bees are too.

  839. It’s concerning that the USA seems to be winning the “soft” war – the war of words and narratives. I see in my paper yet another false flag massacre automatically ascribed to the Russians, reported as truth, same spiel on radio, and of course on self affirming, self amplifying social media. Once a false narrative (the big lie) becomes “truth”, it’s just reality for everyone, the way the world “is”, and everyone, high and low, bases decisions on this falsehood. The “army” grows. Seems to be working. Dangerous.

  840. Hillary and Rachel - well, they have two of Macbeth's witches lined up. But who for the third?

    2
  844. No one is above the law - yep, we can railroad anybody!
    2
  845. The government in the USA has been hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and these folks have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - but currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness, the control of vote counting - and will be very hard to excise.
    1
  846. No, actually - we don't.
    1
  847. A clash of civilizations? I suspect it’s already over. The USA has turned itself into a highly divided corrupt oligarchy, getting more and more dictatorial - a Ministy of Truth, President can declare war by himself, crime families in charge, corrupt media…. So the old USA – the free, the prosperous, the “shining house on the hill” example we’d fight for, is pretty well destroyed. Gone. Defeated. Sad indeed.
    1
  848. Binoculars.
    1
  849. Seems that the USA continues to inflict huge soft damage on itself – its way of dealing with Russian bonds, its weaponization of Swift, its arbitrary abrogation of contracts, its attempted regime changes of its Allies, its abandonment of Afganistan…. – who the heck would deal with, or trust, the States? Does it have any friends left?

  868. Those MSM journos who got their noses out of joint - they must be aware that the first amendment is free speech - except if you falsely call out "FIRE" in a crowded theatre. If DOXing, that they are so proud of, results in murder - would they be accessories?

  869. offer Russia Odessa -
    1
  870. Heck why not individual price caps? $30 for Poland, $50 for France, $10 for GB, I'm sure that we can find a set of numbers we all agree on - meetings are required. Many meetings. Call in the people we keep on hand for meetings!
    1
  871. The West and the MSM are desperately trying to explain events in terms of their own propaganda - MSM: we say Russia is weak, disorganized, has poor weapons and is losing. Now, how do we wrestle a version of current events to match those givens? And not appear like idiots. It's getting hard.
    1
  872. Yes, and no money going back to the former head office in the States. Nice. Sanctions we can live with.

  876. The UK becomes what they're supposedly fighting against.

  877. Speaking of sanctions – when the embargo on Cuban cane sugar was implemente\d the USA switched to high fructose corn syrup. It’s in everything now - not a good sweetener, metabolized differently from straight sucrose, cheap though. HFC is now in major use and vested interests want to keep it that way. Looking at the trend in death stats in the States due to diabetes, heart attacks, and other obesity related diseases related to overuse of HFCs - hey! Maybe Castro won!

    1
  881. I wouldn't suppose such diplomatic meetings (as USA vs India) to be productive as they appear to be inherently combative. Among generally equal sides, one might well suppose that a 'carrot or stick' approach would produce rancour, rather than cooperation

  896. Whenever the West feels it’s maybe behind in one of its many wars – it dependably rolls out the tired old trope: ”They’re using gas!” We warned them and warned them! Don’t use gas!”. And so convenient, that sure enough, right after the West warned them – they started to use gas! Amazing isn’t it? A very tired false flag – sounds like once again, once again, the West is going to try to trot this chesnut out in the Ukraine conflict. It's what the USA does. There's absolutely no strategic benefit to Russia to use chemical weapons, and a real propaganda "dis-benefit" - so they won't. Wouldn't make any sense. Just watch though, we’ll see a USA staged false flag. With videos. And dead people. - wonder if they'll try nuclear false flag?

  897. Biden's legacy: The defeat of the West.
    1
  898. Besides losing on the military and economic fronts, the West has been drawn into losing on the "soft power" front – by weaponizing and frittering away: trust in USA as a reliable ally; status of US dollar as reserve currency; credibility of the West's MSM; trust in UK's financial markets; - all going. Biggest defeat of all.

  900. Every time this comedy team is trotted out, their credibility plummets - keep it up - your true characters come shining through the make up, through the production values. We hear the prepared tautologies, the fatuous off the cuff comments, your strange behaviour - it's stupidity on display. Yoo Hoo! We see you!

  904. Britain has constructed a great propaganda story - but now they’re actually beleiving it!! And using it for planning! And it’s all made it up in the first place! A fantasy. Combine this with the intrepid, Boys Own, 007 myths - Sure dangerous to use such mirages for planning. Very scarey.

  905. Denisova can easily get work with the Tabloids – “Woman Killed by Fur Coat!”, “Titanic Survivors Alive”, Giant Bats Attack Planes”, Farmer Shoots 23lb Grasshopper”, “Alien in Slammer After Fist Fight with Bill – Over Hillary!”- are all headlines she could well have crafted.

  915. You've really tortoise something!

  916. Biden's speech, the rabble-rousing tone, the militaristic staging, the encouragement of hostility towards American voters - like a scene from "1984" and echoes Dr. Goebbels at his best! Pretty darn bizarre and scarey.

  917.  Track you down  Secret Ukranian secret forces seized in secret a secret warehouse with secret ammunition worth a secret amount.

  918. A lot of Ukrainian immigrants in Canada, and they've bought the Ukrainian narrative, and don't want Canada to return the turbine to Germany because it might help Russia. They don't care about Germany.

  919. War of attrition - the West is getting weaker and weaker and more and more disorganized - Russian war aims working well.

  920. With ex Biden guy Sam Brinton wearing someone else's stolen custom dress, I can't help wondering whose teeth Biden is wearing?? Obviously not his....

  921. If the West used nukes - the Russians could respond: "In a measured response, next week ONE of your capital cities will be targetted. We're warning you, so you have a chance to evacuate."
    1
  922. We can't all be first
    1
  923. Talk about the madness of crowds - the West sure seems to have it bad - someone starts a narrative for whatever reason - and it just takes off and grows and becomes a new reality - like the Salem witch trials. Untill finally someone and then everyone "wakes up" and looks around and womders "what the heck was that all about?".

  928. Every time I hear "Trudeau, you idiot!" in a guttural German accent I break up. It's so right!
    1
  929. A sudden, startling view of reality in the UK - the papered over discontent of the population suddenly revealed - and dismissed, ironically, by racist type thinking to oddly characterize the concerns of a huge segment of the UK population as "Far right", and "Nazi" - and make these labels arrestable! Give me a break. Once those terms are used, it demonizes and dismisses. It's not that simple. It's deeper than that.

  930. Little mouse EU fixed on destroying Russia by frontal assault – Trump, on the other hand, is following Pres. Lincoln's quote: “Do I not destroy my enemies when I make them my friends?”

    1
  935. At some point - no more popcorn or soda
    1
  936. Elenski should give his pep talks while walking around Kiev, and maybe give a tour of one of his mansions. That would help more than all this green screen photo studio stuff.
    1
  937. If Russia is now an EU certified - "State Sponsor of Terrorism" - I guess that puts a kibosh on the Uranium, Titanium, Aluminium trades.

  945. LOL I suspect that if Russia were balkanized - that CHINA would step in, take over a good part of Russia, and increase its power - so the US again will build up its enemies

  957. NATO air defence designed for the manned fighter, manned bomber model. Not for the hundreds of cheap drones model.
    1
  958. Is Biden continuing to be"suckered" into actions destructive to the USA? Putting 4 of the top US prime irreplaceable military assets into restricted waterways, surrounded by near and hostile shores - seems a tad risky to me. Who knows where missiles may come from, or where supersonic torpedos originate?
    1
  959. I sincerely hope so - they have access to tons of money, and to anonymous violence (hitmen) so it's pretty hard to go against them.
    1
  960.  @Xaq_udirir  That gender thing again!
    1
  961. Now, with video repeated over and over, and deep fakes - maybe beleiving 1/2 of what you see is too much - maybe beleive 1/8. Also video is designed not so much to make you see/beleive, but to make you feel a certain way - that's why a tipped over stroller (from somewhere) is added to the footage.

  964. I see in the screen shot of the Pentagon statement 17:38 that they report on Russian ordinance - so, an "ordinance" is a bylaw of some sort. Russians are sending bylaws instead of ordnance?

  973. Re Musk deactivating a cyber truck: Yeah, and I'm sure the fancier USAsupplied weapons like the F35 can be "switched off" remotely from the USA if India (say) uses them for something the USA disapproves of.
    1
  974. good observation
    1
  975. Assad is still there - only hope to get him deposed is to arrange a meeting with Zelensky.
    1
  976. Talk about the madness of crowds - the West has it bad - someone starts a crazy narrative - for whatever reason - and it just takes off and grows and becomes a new self-supporting reality - exactly like the Salem witch trials. Untill finally someone, and then everyone, "wakes up" and looks around and wonders "what the heck was that all about?".
    1
  977. ????
    1
  978. I hope you're not a BOT - taking that title from a real person.
    1
  979. EU in a conflict with China - "Uhh, China, old pal , old buddy, we're a little short on artillary shells to shoot at you and your friends. Can you maybe produce some we can buy from you? Are regular fiat payment arrangements OK?" USD? EURO? Cowrie shells?
    1
  980. Kamala and the Democrats talk about a breath of fresh air! a new start! and a brand new refreshing administration! - then they double down on their old stale policies that've failed the USA and the world so spectacularly over the past 4 years. Oh, and Hope. One of their main initiatives seems to be hope.
    1
  981. now we have two orange men.
    1
  982. China should pull out of the construction of the UK's Hinkley Point nuclear plant. Don't trust the UK with uranium.
    1
  983. Do you suppose Scottish midges could be harvested and processed into an OK fish substitute?
    1
  984. He fought the USA corrupt oligarchic structure - but lost.
    1
  985. Biden is hired to wreck the USA - needs 6 more years and it'll be done.
    1
  986. The Sea Sparrow - isn't that a later derivative of the "Sea Budgie"?
    1
  987. Pompeo says any sign of weakness is bad - and then the USA trots out Biden. The mind boggles. Wait, let me check...yes, yes, the mind boggles.
    1
  988. They beleived their own propaganda - used it for planning (smites brow!)
    1
  989. But fatter.
    1
  990. 83 yr old Nancy's parting gift to Humanity - doom.
    1
  991. The West had a chance to integrate Russia more into Europe - but Biden has managed to make Russia an overt enemy and drive Russia and China together to form a very large opponent of the West. Total disaster.
    1
  992. A tenth sanction package? It's like giving Russia vitamin pills.
    1
  993. So no Russian toilet paper - tough. Though I find Euros are a fine workable substitute.
    1
  994. Citing an "anonymous source" - more truthful maybe to change this up and cite an "anonymous man in the street".
    1
  995. There were reports, but they were so horrendous that no one beleived them.
    1
  996. Here's hoping Haley hasn't been assured that Trump will be "no problem" in a few months....
    1
  997. 4 Women run for head of NATO. Does the position come with a ceremonial winged horned helmut? As worn by the Valkyries? The sisters of Brünnhilde?
    1
  998. We should do a health check on world leaders - Putin - looks and sounds fine. Joe Biden? Well, he's able to totter, mostly. Nancy Pelosi? She appears strange with her hanky twisting and weird motions. Kamala? A nice smile, but a tad vacuous. And Boris - I think he has long COVID with the attendant brain fog.
    1
  999. Why does the Press bother attending those information-free White House press briefings? Is attendance down?
    1
  1000. National athletes barging along the Siene - did anyone spot the Russian submarine?
    1
  1001. Maybe OPEC+ will cap oil production until Biden drains the strategic oil reserve to zero, hobbling the US military.
    1
  1002. A belly dancer?...Surely he's over qualified?
    1
  1003. We haf to hafe ero tolerance for that last letter in the alphabet. Here in Canada we have a mattress seller called "La-Z-Boy" - how is this possible? How can they rest easy no matter now good the mattress?
    1
  1004. Ironic indeed that the German PM calls a realist a Putin troll, when it's actually the German PM who's doing exactly what Putin wants - by keeping the Germany-weakening sanctions going.
    1
  1005. clothing store metaphor - each manufacturer has differnent sizing systems - just like US sizes and Eu sizes. Another confounding factor
    1
  1006. he could sell lighters on a street corner in Kiev.
    1
  1007. It's like a poker game - the two big boys have most of the chips - the third, little player EU, is wondering how to parley its 3 chips into an overwhelming win
    1
  1008. Trump: "Canada could be our 51st state!" Trudeau: "ho, ho good one sir"
    1
  1009. The USA seems stuck in a world view based upon WWII war films – war in Pacific, superior technology, certainty of winning, huge but acceptable casualties. The GIs win out as they always do. Planning for the last war. A comforting, dangerous delusion.
    1
  1010. Just finished a book by a Canadian soldier of his WWII experiences ... Baerbock has no idea, no idea. Just a pushy gal who gets ticked if she doesn't get her way. Absolutely no idea what's she's risking.
    1
  1011. Yep. Amerika Uber Alles.
    1
  1012. No staggered seating along the Siene so most people couldn't see the athletes at all.
    1
  1013. "To support the people of Ukraine"... the best way is to NOT support the current government of Ukraine -
    1
  1014. The government in the USA has been hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and those folks have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - but currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness, the control of vote counting - and will be very hard to excise.
    1
  1015. There are many UK women who could amply fufill the RN leader role of "Rear Admirable".
    1
  1016. The tanks are there already - chemical plant - Kiev is just saying to mine them so they can spill 100 tons of nitric acid - and make a giant mess.
    1
  1017. Dilithium crystal!
    1
  1018. The whole point is interpretation and analysis -
    1
  1019. Hate to see that mention of chemical weapons - sounds like we're being set up for a false flag and an excuse for more escalation. There's absolutely no strategic benefit to Russia to use chemical weapons, and a real propaganda "dis-benefit" - so they won't. Wouldn't make any sense. I suspect the USA will stage a false flag. With videos.
    1
  1020. Russia is serving as a responsible steward to look after and guard the nuclear power plant. With so many crazy factions roaming around there - who knows what any of them would do. If Ukraine has lost some territory - happy to do the scorched earth thing....
    1
  1021. Meanwhile, in other news, I see that the US Congress is holding an open hearing on UFOs!
    1
  1022. Oh good - some guy on the bridge says: "Gort, Klaatu barada nikto" and the sub sinks.
    1
  1023. Joe has wrecked a lot of things - faith in the USA financial system, faith in the USA legal system, Faith in the USA media, now it looks like his path of destruction may actually include the Democatic party itself.
    1
  1024. They should print the Koran on guncotton - that way it blows up if you try to burn it.
    1
  1025. So is Canada giving 350 million to Ukraine to buy Russian gas? Is that allowed? $350 million to Russia?
    1
  1026. So the Finnish PM wants to make Russia poorer by stopping Russian tourists spending their money in the EU. Huh. Well, well.
    1
  1027. Send the bills to Van der Crazy - she's the one that "maneuvered" Putin into halting gas and oil by placing sanctions and refusing to buy.
    1
  1028. Zelensky is doing ethnic cleansing on the Ukraine. All from inside. Like a bellwether sheep. ..."commonly used to lead their fellow sheep to slaughter. However, the bellwether never was killed.."
    1
  1029. repeating my post: >>Hate to see that mention of chemical weapons - sounds like we're being set up for a false flag and an excuse for more escalation. There's absolutely no strategic benefit to Russia to use chemical weapons, and a real propaganda "dis-benefit" - so they won't. Wouldn't make any sense. I suspect the USA will stage a false flag. With videos.
    1
  1030. 2 hours = 1000 comments. An interesting metric.
    1
  1031. The US thinks it's using Ukraine as a proxy in a war with Russia. I suspect that Russia is doing the same thing - but better - using Ukraine as a proxy against the US in an economic and political war. Huge US bank collapses, China turning against the West, Iran and Saudi joining together, boomerang sanctions, a discreditting of the West's financial/business structures - all freely happening while the US focusses on Ukraine. Well played Russia!
    1
  1032. On the 30 billion and the 180 million that's going to Ukraine - sure be nice to see the documentation, the spreadsheets, the invoices as to where it's going, where it's deposited.
    1
  1033. Cockroaches! The Shrimp of the Land! Yum.
    1
  1034. Sure he wouldn't be in Ukrainian territory - be killed right away, or silenced. No chance of getting valid interviews from the Ukrainian side - total intimidation over there.
    1
  1035. And a turd from Ireland!
    1
  1036. He's the one with the paintball gun.
    1
  1037. They are now "Ebras" we hafe ero tolerance for the last letter in the alphabet. Hafing some trouble with bees though - they insist on bussing and making that "Ssssss" sound - like snakes now. But correct politically.
    1
  1038. Hope the neocons don't say: "OK, If we can't have the World - no-one can!" and they start WWIII
    1
  1039. Blatent Blinken blather - losing the info space because they are so kack-handed at trying to get their misinformation out - over egged, and easy to see the inner workings, the Keystone Cops behind the curtain are visible. And laughable.
    1
  1040. In a council of clowns - like the EU, or Zelensky's government - they have court jesters charged with giving rational observations, making logical suggestions, being reasonable - all very humourous indeed - provides much laughter and amusement.
    1
  1041. Blinken and his pronouncements and manner have puzzled me - but now I realize he's just doing a wonderful Mr. Bean imitation! Just look next time - you'll see it!
    1
  1042. I wonder what shoes he wears to hide his cloven hooves.
    1
  1043. Victoria Nuland - the face of US diplomacy. GAK. No wonder there's a problem here.
    1
  1044. Perhaps Mavis in the typing pool.
    1
  1045. To get into Joe’s big boy presser, you may have to lie about your height.
    1
  1046. My son is named "Howie" - short for "Howitzer".
    1
  1047. Is Biden continuing to be"suckered" into actions destructive to the USA? Putting 4 of the top US prime, irreplaceable, military assets into restricted waterways, surrounded by near and hostile shores - seems a tad risky to me. Who knows where missiles may come from, or where supersonic torpedos originate? Seems a good idea to get your ships out of harm's way
    1
  1048. Keep changing coffee shops....
    1
  1049.  @eastcoastsailingcenter7768  Rub that crystal ball a little harder - it may clear up for you.
    1
  1050. Looks like the individual States in the US are feeling their oats - a power vacuum at the top, so they're making their own ways - breakup of the USA? Just like the Neocons wanted for Russia?
    1
  1051. You first! Ukraine is looking for gullible cannon fodder!
    1
  1052. Where's Tennyson when you need him
    1
  1053. The Emperor is really chilly. All sorts of solutions are being suggested - but...no-one dares mention that he has no clothes. No-one dares mention that Biden's sanctions have caused the price hikes - it's Biden's price hike, not Putin's.
    1
  1054. Nancy Pelosi runs again - can US House of Representatives have members who have actually passed away? Just asking.
    1
  1055. So ironic that NATO was formed to prevent war by presenting a unified front that no-one could attack - but now, NATO seems to be the cause of the current conflict and is making it worse.
    1
  1056. Elensky just is coming across as simply mad - like crazy.
    1
  1057. USA would just flatten it all - shock and awe - this is USA's main strategy. Fast and telegenic and savage. Russia wants Ukraine and its people to survive and continue to function - so just wear down the opposing army and leave the cities alone as much as possible. Slower, better.
    1
  1058. Amazing the story that Russia, instead of attacking enemy troops, is throwing away valuable arms on a gratuitous attack on their own people - with no benefit to Russia, but a great propaganda loss - Russia just wouldn't do this - doesn't make sense.
    1
  1059. Macron takes a licken but keeps on ticken!
    1
  1060. Maybe you should put out a DURAN coin - could do well. BTW the snake island thing is called a coin - it's not really, can't use it to buy anything. It's just a round medal or token, no intrinsic value. And there will be lots, so probably no collector value either.
    1
  1061. The protests aren't just about pensions - it's the general failing of the French economy due to the billions of French citizen's Euros blown in Ukraine and the very expensive self harming sanctions. Macron is just incompetent - bleeding his country. How to get the bad captain off the bridge is the problem.
    1
  1062. He's off in left field somewhere - calling out imaginary plays.
    1
  1063. The EU is expecting to soon be flushed with victory!
    1
  1064. Trying to Imagine Kamala playing poker. She's not got a poker face - her expression for a royal flush - just has to be seen.
    1
  1065. So the USA is willing to give Ukraine old, barely functional weapons that the Ukraine soldiers can die using - pretty insulting. If I were Ukrainian, this insulting offer of help would turn me against the USA as it's clear they just don't care.
    1
  1066. Elensky: "hey you EU guys - keep sending me your weapons, give me your cash til it's all gone - that will surely "tenderize" you all for the big Russian confrontation I see coming."
    1
  1067. It'll be buzzing for sure
    1
  1068. Biden, "we had to destroy democracy in order to save it."
    1
  1069. The Queen's not aiming that thing at Andrew is she?
    1
  1070. Well, if the USA runs out of aluminum, they could switch pop cans over to use depleted uranium
    1
  1071. Biden was on the White House escalator when it broke down - he was marooned for hours!
    1
  1072. All those Ukrainians trained in Canada since 2015? All dead.
    1
  1073. Man! I didn't fully realize just how stupid they must be!
    1
  1074. The seizure of Russian art sure gives a bad image to Finland and the EU - it's so reminiscent of the German Policy art seizures of the 1930's - 1940's. I think another case of shooting one's own foot.
    1
  1075. Interesting to contrast the pictures of Putin and Lukashenko with those images of Biden addressing the people with his garish, red lit, militaristic background - Biden seems crazed and bombastic, Putin seems cultured and concerned.
    1
  1076. In further news my Aunt Boonie also stipulates that sanctions must continue until Russia is defeated.
    1
  1077. If the majority of European citizens come to understand that the USA is behind the suffering that they HAVE to go through (no lifeline anymore), the pipeline sabotage may end up constituting a big political loss for the States.
    1
  1078. The Democrats in the USA got hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and they have little interest in the health of the USA. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. Those are the people to remove - they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness - and will be very hard to remove.
    1
  1079. Trudeau appears resigned.
    1
  1080. Man! That 2016 Russia-Gate campaign ploy for Hillary that John Podesta came up with - sure has legs. It's the fantasy that just keeps giving!
    1
  1081. Wonder if the US and the West are using Lithuania to try and goad the Russians into performing a "retaliation/escalation worthy" act - so that the West can then enthusiastially enter the conflict.
    1
  1082. Maybe the Ukrainian TV station was trying to patch in a prepared video clip where Ukraine actually won. And they got Putin instead.
    1
  1083. You seem to have the entire US Congress there..
    1
  1084. A lot of square bashing and incomprehensible Sgt Majors - that'll help big time.
    1
  1085. Blinken, Lavrov, seems like we're picking teams for he next World Series.
    1
  1086. Germany needs a new defense minister - key requirement is: "must be a woman". Gosh. Just before WWII Britain's Air Ministry needed a new bomber - requirements issued for weight, range, etc. - but key requirement stipulated was: "must fit inside our existing hanger". Nice. Into production, huge costs, but it never suceeded - wings too short. Easy to store though. A lesson here somewhere.
    1
  1087. The longer the Ukraine war goes on, the weaker the West gets - a strange correlation. Russia is playing the West.
    1
  1088. You lucky devil!
    1
  1089. Can they sanction Russian humour? No more laughing allowed at Russian jokes?
    1
  1090. Europe has been played - convinced to weaken themselves, to drain their economies, to send treasure out to Ukraine for destruction, to emphasize their own societal divisions, and now, fading away, they imagine they still matter, and insist on weakening themselves even further.
    1
  1091. Macron: "Putin called me! He actually called me! Yay!" "He's holding a course in international politics and has offerred me a free placement!"
    1
  1092. Sure, if Russia had gone full in it would have been over fast - but Russia does not want a destroyed, depopulated Ukraine. It want a demilitarized Ukraine
    1
  1093. if it talks like a duck, walks like a duck....
    1
  1094. It's hard to maintain that democracy is a viable form of governement - if total goofs are elected. Otherwise OK - it works.
    1
  1095. Like another poster said -" The USA paid $3000 for a pack of ciggys" - a good swap for Russia.
    1
  1096. Whenever the West feels it’s maybe behind in one of its many wars – it dependably rolls out the tired old trope: ”They’re using gas!” We warned them and warned them! Don’t use gas!”. And so convenient, that sure enough, right after the West warned them – they started to use gas! Amazing isn’t it? A very tired false flag – sounds like once again, once again, the West is going to try to trot this chesnut out in the Ukraine conflict. It's what the USA does. There's absolutely no strategic benefit to Russia to use chemical weapons, and a real propaganda "dis-benefit" - so they won't. Wouldn't make any sense. Just watch though, we’ll see a USA staged false flag. With videos. And dead people. - wonder if they'll try nuclear false flag?
    1
  1097. He: A doddering old fool. Him: a well meaning goof. Biden and Trudeau! They fight crime!
    1
  1098. So the West does a false flag and nukes Kiev - and blames Russia. I can see that - and WWIII and total destruction of the West starts due to a false accusation of "who did it?"
    1
  1099. The West thought it had a big economy - but the numbers it uses are reporting on paper transactions - zero sum betting games, not real stuff.
    1
  1100. Is Monaco a NATO member?
    1
  1101. Thus this comment - NATO: “Hey Finland, Sweden! We’re about to stage a nuclear war! C’mon in and join the fun!”. Girlish giggles from Sweden and Finland.
    1
  1102. Eurovision values are reflected: Corruption, not about talent, able to be bought....
    1
  1103. Zelensky has red line envy.
    1
  1104. Biden appeared delusional too.
    1
  1105. Hubris is OK - but boneheaded hubris is bad.
    1
  1106.  @paulies5407  spinning its wheels for sure.
    1
  1107. Wali went there to shoot people. It's his thing. No patrotism, no moral reason - nope - just shoot people. Seems like some targets shot back though. More than Wali bargained for - he's back home now.
    1
  1108. I hope the Western media thinks it's OK for Russians to inspect for underwater damage, and I hope that in the future there will be inspection of all pylons plus security monitoring put in place on each support. And checking of each truck and car using the bridge, similar to what's in place for marine traffic - ferries etc.
    1
  1109. In this Opera Buffa currently on the world stage I’m anticipating that great aria “La NATO è mobile.”
    1
  1110. Sounds like Ukraine wants to turn the whole UN into a military ally - like NATO
    1
  1111. Too far gone to be charged with a crime.
    1
  1112. The third biggest wheat producer the world? Empty supermarkets? I don't thnk so.
    1
  1113. Will the dept. of Justice send Trump's $355 million fine to Estonia do you think?
    1
  1114. AWK!
    1
  1115. No more income for the Bidens.
    1
  1116. I think that the CIA is preparing to blame Ukraine for more assassination attempts.
    1
  1117. Nuclear weapons are such dull tools - an all or nothing type thing, so much collateral damage, almost useless.
    1
  1118. Yep, keep moving, use a "burner phone" if you can.
    1
  1119. Check your sources.
    1
  1120. Biden plans to issue scrips of paper that say on them: "dinner", "lunch" etc. and we get to swallow them. Maybe for a treat they could say "Christmas Dinner". Yum.
    1
  1121. They believed their own propaganda - used it for planning. Not a good idea.
    1
  1122. Wow! There's Vikky Newland working against the best interests of the USA - and she doesn't know she's doing it - or maybe she does. And Maddow helps. Whoosh. Hard to recognize the devil.
    1
  1123. Talent? Biden would be perfect as the Ghost of Christmas Past.
    1
  1124. Very Kafka I look forward to a darkish Opera Buffa.
    1
  1125. The AZOV guy sure looked a thug - hopefully folks will see through these attempts to influence the weak minded. It was how Goebbels worked - works well.
    1
  1126. Russian oil? Don't ask, don't tell.
    1
  1127. And what have you been saying?
    1
  1128. one way to destroy an enemy's armed forces is to take away its funding - this seems to have worked, as the UK and French and German economies collapse. And these three seem set on giving money and resources to Ukraine for Russia to dispose of. So strange.
    1
  1129. So is Salzburg, in Germany, now Salsburg? I missed that.
    1
  1130. Good point! Could have filled in a bit more for Kamala's discussion.
    1
  1131. Like a million lemmings commanded to march over the Russian cliff.
    1
  1132. "estimate that more than 2,000 residents have been killed in IDF strikes" - you mean "2000 Hezbollah operatives" surely
    1
  1133. A comment that's a bit overly dramatic don't you think?
    1
  1134. If I were paid with frozen russian assets - I'd feel a little insecure - ownership of stolen assets can be problematic. Buy a stolen car - it goes back to the original owner - the buyer is just out of luck.
    1
  1135. Who's running the USA now? I understand it's Mavis from the secretarial pool - she issues the walkbacks where the White House says what Joe really meant.
    1
  1136. Not as high as the States though.
    1
  1137. EU, US playing Jenga is a better metaphor.
    1
  1138. Seems Ukraine is putting itself into a big Kursk cauldron.
    1
  1139. Here's hoping the crazy guys in the US don't go too crazy - if sanctions don't work....what's next to try?
    1
  1140. What are the Dutch folks on the Uideree going to do? Maybe use "S"? Or flip the "Z" 90 degrees so that we then have NuiderNee - this could work
    1
  1141. Yez it doez. How can cartoonists now symbolize "sleep"? A bunch of "esses" issueing from the sleeping character?
    1
  1142. The face that launched a 1000 ships! Nancy! Gad!
    1
  1143. Switzerland is also holding a world gathering of cheese makers to discuss the state of steel production world wide.
    1
  1144. It's part of the exam.
    1
  1145. Pretty good mug shot of Hillary. Is she wearing a stocking?
    1
  1146. Cutting off hot water is sure a good way of telling the public that "we're losing". And vividly reminding them several times every day. Great PR!
    1
  1147. Wonder when Russia will sanction Uranium, Titanium, Aluminium, rare earths...
    1
  1148. It is. Too bad it's also the name of a species of wild pig. A peccary.
    1
  1149. So the Czech Republic is totally hard on the letter "Z" - somewhat ironic as their name appears to be built around it. When will they rename themselves?
    1
  1150. Even with OK Visas there's been so much anti-Russian hate propaganda that Russian tourists won't have a good time or a welcome anwhere in the EU.
    1
  1151. LCI shouldn't deny reality so blatently - the thousands that took part in the demonstrations and the hundreds of thousands that have direct connections - now all have first hand knowledge of the lying of the MSM - so LCI is simpy blowing away its "credibilty capital". Very hard to get back.
    1
  1152. If a bunch of U.S. missiles come deep into Russia - how will Russia know if they are nuclear tipped or not - should Russia initiate MAD protocols? Or wait. And see if it's an attempt at a pre-emptive nuclear attack?
    1
  1153. Yeah - the West is far overdoing the constant stream of misinformation and propaganda - gets pretty ridiculous, and like the Indian Foreign minister says: "You're not fooling anybody"

  1154.  @dethray1000  Born on US embassy grounds in Cape Town - US soil.

  1155. Nice tight sweat pants to wear in an extreme muslim's appartment.
    1
  1156. Wonder if Russia will BUY gas and oil for amounts above the capped price.
    1
  1157. Can AI auto translate do Gibberish to English? We could have used that for Joe's sessions.
    1
  1158. A general is chock a block full of the West's military secrets - hard to believe he was allowed to simply "run away'.
    1
  1159. Now it waives the rules.
    1
  1160. 3 minutes in and I'm happy to be in the first 20 club.
    1
  1161. Biden: Keep up with the metaphors. You mix them up to great effect - maybe not the effect you want, but hey, it lightens peoples lives.
    1
  1162. Another report from Fantasy Land.
    1
  1163. Barking mad perhaps.
    1
  1164. Bill's lie is simply to promote the idea that Ukraine just needs nukes to win - even now.
    1
  1165. Was that filmed in a "protected workshop" for failed statesmen?
    1
  1166. first ten club 59 seconds in
    1
  1167. It wouldn't surprise me. Random general destabilization seems to be the goal of the USA>
    1
  1168. Seems to me it's time for Russia to demand Rubles for all exports.
    1
  1169. Well, no more Russian uranium exports to the West (including France), and China pulls out of Hinckley Point reactor construction.
    1
  1170. Funny that Biden doesn't mention Mary Barra - "You led Mary. And it matters". "Leave GM and help us here - that leading thing that you do."
    1
  1171. There's absolutely no strategic benefit to Russia to use chemical weapons, and a real propaganda "dis-benefit" - so they won't. Wouldn't make any sense. Just watch though, we’ll see a USA staged false flag. With videos. And dead people. It's what the USA does.
    1
  1172. Whenever the West feels it’s maybe behind in one of its many wars – it dependably rolls out the tired old trope:”They’re using gas!” We warned them and warned them! Don’t use gas!”. And so convenient, that sure enough, right after the West warned them – they started to use gas! Amazing isn’t it? A very tired false flag – sounds like once again, once again, the West is going to try to trot this chesnut out in the Ukraine conflict. It's what the USA does. There's absolutely no strategic benefit to Russia to use chemical weapons, and a real propaganda "dis-benefit" - so they won't. Wouldn't make any sense. Just watch though, we’ll see a USA staged false flag. With videos. And dead people.
    1
  1173. Ursula van der Z is not a deep or reflective thinker, but she's good at ruminating.
    1
  1174. would Russia cooperate in rolling back sanctions? They seem to suit Russia just fine.
    1
  1175. So if Putin were replaced by a woman...? Yes. I can see Hillary Clinton there or Madeline Albright...we'd be in broad sunlit uplands if only a sweet young thing were in charge. Steven - don't tweet - too revealing.
    1
  1176. Seems the West have over-egged the propaganda pudding. So many ridiculous claims, so many "experts" spouting obviously false analyses, so many cartoon versions of Russia, - and most of this guff stays on the net, highlighting and reminding people of how various "predictions" worked out - Seems most Western sources are now automatically discounted by folks. Blown through their "credibility capital".
    1
  1177. More confiscations! Man, if I were China I'd pull everything I could out of US control - Slightest pretext and the USA steals it.
    1
  1178. Man, you could get 40yrs in the clink for that one!
    1
  1179. sounds like a lot of folks are just getting fed up with the West and its transparent ploys and betrayals - can you trust them? No. Enter into an agreement with them? No. Not a good idea. Not trustworthy.
    1
  1180. US helped win WWII by simply out producing Germany and Japan - no way they can do similar here.
    1
  1181. now, now, keep it clean.
    1
  1182. Surely Biden could avoid confusing metaphors and just say: "Amerika Uber Alles"
    1
  1183. It's not genes. Old folksy Joe is talking bib overalls. That type of jeans. Patched ones.
    1
  1184. In WWII Canada took away Japanese Canadian's assets and moved the Japanese Canadians to camps. Regarded as Canada's shame - taught in schools as shameful - seems we're doing it again - target an ethnic group and demonize them and steal their assets - good old Canada.
    1
  1185. EU doubling down - shutting off yet another source of income - no Russian tourists allowed to spend any money in the EU. A good plan! What's next? The EU bureaucrats threaten to hold their breath until Russia gives in?
    1
  1186. The UK sending depleted uranium shells seems yet another self-goal by the West - a few Uranium rounds to destroy maybe 2, 3 tanks - meanwhile the world-wide propaganda loss is huge. The West seems to be losing the larger wars - the propaganda and political and economic wars, the big ones, the ones that matter, and the West doesn't even seem to know they're in these other, bigger wars.
    1
  1187. Boris always wanted to be wartime prime minister. Only one problem – no war! OK says Boris – no problem…I can fix that.
    1
  1188. A great visual - thanks!
    1
  1189. No guarantee that Russia would resume pre-sanction trade. Just keep the sanctions on - we're not hurting. Might be a one-way switch.
    1
  1190. Something big coming? Maybe the outbreak of common sense!!
    1
  1191. You Kayakallas. Me Jungle Joseph.
    1
  1192. Pro-ZZZelenski propaganda is coming apart at the seams - first you have old Joe absolutely prattling on, tossing off casual comments about genocide, war criminals, monsters etc - in his manner - sounding demented and easily dismissed, and then you have Elenski proudly showing Ukraine's official opposition leader in chains - arrested by old democratic Elenski. Whose side are these guys on?
    1
  1193. Very becoming indeed. Sigh.
    1
  1194. Talk about the madness of crowds - the West has it bad - someone starts a crazy Ukranian narrative - for whatever reason - and the MSM accepts it, runs with it, and it takes off and grows and becomes a new self-supporting reality – exactly like the Salem witch trials. Untill finally someone, and then everyone, "wakes up" and looks around and wonders "what the heck was that all about?". Meanwhile the young girls (witches) are all dead.
    1
  1195. I suspect Russia invited North Korea in just to troll the West - keep 'em distracted, keep 'em looking at squirrels, while we quietly remove their jewelery and money.
    1
  1196. The space between here ears isn't vast. It's only half vast. (you have to say it out loud)
    1
  1197. "...at the behest of a corrupt and an idiot comedian who is..." being guided by a dangerously delusional man with loaded guns. This is fine. What can go wrong?
    1
  1198. Biden has misused the justice department, the tax department, the State department, all in attempts to remove a rival candidate - all failed, they only suceeded in the World seeing high corruption in the USA's institutions. So it almost looks as though Biden got to the Secret Service, to maybe be a bit slack and just let things happen - It all seems like planned negligence - just help it happen by doing nothing. Joe did seem pretty sad that it failed....
    1
  1199. NYT and WAPO could help Ukraine by sending 100 million keyboards over to Zelenski.
    1
  1200. The British have a fine tradition of grand incompetence. They even have a word for it - blunder, as in "Someone blundered." Glad to see Lammy trying to perpetuate this heritage.
    1
  1201. So Biden had a wallaby loose in his upper paddock - for 4 years.
    1
  1202. War of attrition - the West is getting weaker and weaker and more and more disorganized - Russian war aims working well.
    1
  1203. A strange truth - is that the off-ramp? Ukraine going? Or will the West just keep on fighting and escalating?
    1
  1204. On the Kursk media spin - I could see Russia being OK with it - the narrative gets more and more forces into the Kursk trap for elimination.
    1
  1205. 'Javelina" - sort of OK - but why do I think of the name "Bazooka" when I see Joe Biden? His secret name perhaps?
    1
  1206. Impatient are you? Turn around - as the Ukrainian situation continues - look behind you, it's bigger - the West is being drained of military hardware, their economies are tanking, they are showing disunity, and their world wide reputation and power is plummetting. Why would Russia want to stop this downward spiral?
    1
  1207. Dirty tricks - Joe was the master at that. And with cash and goons he knew how to be mob boss. Almost wrecked the USA.
    1
  1208. He looks so like Humpty Dumpty. Is it a thyroid problem??
    1
  1209. Maybe there was more on the oil rig than just drilling stuff - radar etc.
    1
  1210. The Emperor is really chilly. All sorts of solutions are being suggested - but...no-one dares mention that he has no clothes. No-one dares mention that Biden’s sanctions have caused the price hikes - it's Biden's price hike, not Putin's.
    1
  1211. Update 1 looks fine on Rumble
    1
  1212. Does Liz provide her own support?
    1
  1213. Peloisi is not the "it" girl - more the "was" girl.
    1
  1214. I thought that maybe Trudeau was there to consult with the Canadian general. I guess not.
    1
  1215. "Blinken and the Bandeites" - good one. How about: "Winken, Blinken and Nod"
    1
  1216. I guess now in the MSM, criminals will be evacuated by the police. "Yes, we found the killer and sucessfully evacuated him to a jail cell."
    1
  1217. How long will the US pour resources into Ukraine? Biden: "As long as it takes... to fully deplete our resources"
    1
  1218. He's quite a guy! He'll be replacing Biden soon.
    1
  1219. There soon should be a vacancy at the White House - may I recommend General Pavel? He could adequately fill the gap.
    1
  1220. Oh, Alex, a tip. When you get a bit mixed with all the Ukranian and Russian names in Ukraine - just give Joe a call. He'll sort it all out for you.
    1
  1221. If the polling is very strong for Kamala - they might have the effect they did on the Trump/Hillary election. There, Hillary was a shoo-in, bound to win according to the polls - result - a lot of Hillary fans didn't bother to vote. No need. On the other hand, the riled up Trump guys were galvanized. So if you're ahead in the polls - don't boast about it.
    1
  1222. redoing his makeup??
    1
  1223. His defense: It was all an elaborate joke. Haven't you any sense of humour?
    1
  1224. A PR media stunt! Stageing a strong defteat - is that good?
    1
  1225. I guess that with Putin being "duped" (twice) when he assumed the West was honorable and would honor signed treaties, he now knows that the only security assurance Russia has is to have weakened adversaries. Weakened militarily, financially, and politically so as to be powerless. NATO sure woke up the bear.
    1
  1226. Lao Tsu – The Art of War – says to “know your enemy” – oddly it seems that the Biden White House is doing all it can to “disguise your enemy” - and hide reality behind clouds of propaganda and misinformation. And then bases its strategies on this false reality. Old Lao T. must be smiting his forehead.
    1
  1227. I'm sure each US aircraft carrier has at lest two mini nukes constantly trained on it.
    1
  1228. France is shutting down 3 nuclear plants and stopping work on a fourth. Probably due to high temperatures and not enough water to cool them. Needs extra energy to run those air conditioners at the Olympics (sarc).
    1
  1229. LOL the EU would fight the USA with all those fancy USAsupplied weapons like the F35 - which I'm sure can be "switched off" remotely from the USA if the EU uses them for something the USA disapproves of.
    1
  1230. Le mot just
    1
  1231. In the first 100 club! Not like the old days when number one in the comments was achievable.
    1
  1232. Elensky's slick vid has a ton of wreckage behind him - the sort of wreckage he has produced, and he, with some more money can produce a lot more. I get the message.
    1
  1233. Is he constipated?
    1
  1234.  @aitchtea  LOL how well you describe the West's failings. Plus you're very patronizing - a smug westerner it seems.
    1
  1235.  @aitchtea  So, where do you get that wonderful assurance that you have access to all the news/input? The West supresses very well - while assuring you that they don't.
    1
  1236. Ukraine will indeed win - IF - the "Brave Little Ukrainian Dictatorship" goes away before it completely destroys Ukraine and its people..
    1
  1237. A limitless source of twaddle. If only we could harness it for the good of mankind.
    1
  1238. Ukraine, riffing on the price cap method, is now refusing to accept any Russian missiles that may explode.
    1
  1239. Be nice to see the rest of Biden leave.
    1
  1240. I have a bridge to sell you - it's a little bit blown up, but that can be easily buffed out. A bargain!
    1
  1241. Using the stick in diplomacy leads not towards cooperation - but towards rancour and non-cooperation.
    1
  1242. Beware the clever assassination parakeet drones.
    1
  1243.  @martinbartosik2440  CO = Carbon Monoxide. I suspect CO2 was meant - as a normal exhaled gas. A problem with submarines if you get too high a percentage in the air.
    1
  1244. @Charles White Natural gas is lighter than air CH4, propane C3H8 is heavier.
    1
  1245. Tend to think they're more aggressive 'cause they just don't know how bad wars can be - innocents in some ways.
    1
  1246. Wimbledon needs to institute blood and genetic tests to make sure only pure-bloods can play.
    1
  1247. The whole Biden admin seemed to pervade like a poison, a poison that is slowly becoming drained from the body politic. Afew left overs are still spouting the poisonous rhetoric, but it's fading.
    1
  1248. I felt it was too bad your saying the kindergarten kids on a field trip having to wear masks was "a terrible, terrible crime" - sort of zapped your credibility - the sort of thing that Biden would say.
    1
  1249. Maybe over the viewing ports. Custard pies are a staple of slapstick comedy - but with tanks - ho ho - a lotta laffs for sure.
    1
  1250. Boris: "Imagine if Baerbock and Nuland were both men, instead of nice women - just how much worse the situation would be!"
    1
  1251.  @johndoe-vc1we  You describe the EU's sanctions and cash grabs - yep - don't deal with the West - and don't keep your accounts with them
    1
  1252. They're being played - and don't even know it.
    1
  1253. IS the shattered glass on the inside or outside?
    1
  1254. You'd almost think Russia was feeding ridiculous stories to the DOD and the BBC to get them both to repeat, to parrot, obvious nonsense - such that they discredit themselves. Slick way to destroy your opponent's propaganda credibility. Sort of like getting the enemy to spike their own guns. Nice.
    1
  1255. British media doing Putin's job for him - keeping the enemy (UK) confused with false stories. Perfect!
    1
  1256. So a mugger stole your wallet with $1000 in it. I must say, you're highly fiscally irresponsible!
    1
  1257.  @janjorgendevries2927  Got a bit too convoluted on the metaphors for me.
    1
  1258. If Boris can't make a clear video - like clean the lens - how can we possibly assume he has any sort of competence at all?
    1
  1259. The Nordstream thing was Russia's fault! Imagine building a pipeline just where we wanted to set off some explosives!
    1
  1260. so they tell us.
    1
  1261. The EU is like a wimpy boxer in the ring: "He looked a little guy, so I set out with my best trickey punch!" ""Yay!" ... "And then he hit me back!' "Criminal! Who does he think he is?" "Let me talk to the referee" "as soon as I get rid of these teeth here"
    1
  1262. Now we know - Joes lied about his height too!
    1
  1263. All the US has to offer is war and weapons.
    1
  1264. If Sweden really cared they'd rename Sweden itself to Ukraine. That would confuse Putin for sure. Might stymie him even.
    1
  1265. I suspect targetted infrastructure attacks until the first frosts - then debilitating infrastructure attacks including the Kiev airport and then a wholesale invasion.
    1
  1266. SoyFish and Chips - mmm, great! Yum.
    1
  1267. re phone security: Trudeau knew he was actually talking to the real Elenski because Elenski knew the official pass phrase - which is: "Trudeau, you idiot!"
    1
  1268. Democrats have pulled out all the stops to try and hobble Trump. Here's hoping they don't do a Kennedy" on him
    1
  1269. Hearing Stoltenberg....Is Bidenitis contagious?
    1
  1270. Elon's wrong on this one.
    1
  1271. Biden seemed in a rush to get out some memorized comments - like he has to hurry before he forgets them or just loses his train of thought - all runs together into a word salad. Putin and the Chinese are rubbing their hands in glee.
    1
  1272. The USA and the West is being "played" in Ukraine - but to point this out is regarded as traitorius - the US is set up just so well, so solidly.
    1
  1273. Sun Tsu says "to know your enemy" - it's key. Ironically the West has spent decades propagandizing, disguising Russia and hiding its true attributes. We're now seeing the results of basing planning on a made up cartoon version of an adversary. Putin couldn't ask for better allies than the MSM – or the UK Ministry of Defense, planting false and "comforting" stories.
    1
  1274. New sanctions! Now Russian women can non longer by Coach bags!! The horror!
    1
  1275. "Drink to defeat Putin!" - now that'll work - we may have to drink quite a bit.
    1
  1276. Gosh, you have internet connectivity at the front??
    1
  1277. war is hell (munch, munch) says BBC reporter.
    1
  1278. Odd to get to a point where the German Economics Ministry is bigger than the actual German economy.
    1
  1279. The Democrats in the USA got hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and they have little interest in the health of the USA. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. This is the regime to change - they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness - and will be very hard to remove.
    1
  1280.  @davidgray5776  - slang for shooting your officers in the back.
    1
  1281. She might have an epiphany - and come to realize the good guys are actually the bad guys and vice versa. Oh! She says "I didn't know. I do feel silly.".
    1
  1282. Another sign - the RAF refuses to consider white males for pilots - the RAF has hiring quotas for women and people of colour that are not filled - so, if you're a white male - look elsewhere. Or maybe re-define yourself.
    1
  1283. That Telegraph arcticle is bleeding ridiculous! What a rag!
    1
  1284. They managed to get Russia and China to Coalesce into a larger adversary. Wonder if the West was being played by China here?
    1
  1285. There are bad metaphors, and then there are strange excursions of mental processes. Does Boris think he's Robby the Robot?
    1
  1286. Boris has to be a mole of some sort - or maybe a blind mole rat.
    1
  1287. Let's consult with Biden re war with Russia - he has a wallaby loose in the upper paddock, but we need guidance.
    1
  1288. It was sulky liver sausage.
    1
  1289. I get an image of the EU leaders, having lit their big firework – standing there, blackened face, no eyebrows, smoking hair – “This is fine.”
    1
  1290. Never revealed.
    1
  1291. ​ @first-up-best-dressed5548  True - but can't use gas of any type - even oxygen - as the MSM just takes the magic word "gas" and runs with it.
    1
  1292. Seems the EU politicians are off target as usual - they're all concerned about citizens suffering and having to do with less - more important I would think is the macro weakening and impoverishment of their entire respective nations - shrinking wealth, shrinking power, shrinking options and growing irrelevance.
    1
  1293. Boris wanted to be a war time leader - one problem: no war. OK. I can fix that says Boris.
    1
  1294. All those 2000 handy dandy little shoulder fired anti aircraft missiles - manpads - Stingers - that the USA has shipped - can now be bought for a few hundred dollars on the black market. What a boon to civil aviation!
    1
  1295. Gosh, that Macron is pure genius! A Ponzi scheme but totally based on stolen money and loans! The amazing "Macron Move" - update the economic text books!
    1
  1296. Big Headline! EU Has A Snit!
    1
  1297. "The Emperor Has No Cothes" - ReDux - now the little boy who points out that the King is naked - is slapped in jail. Parents sanctioned.
    1
  1298. Wonder if Joe got paid off by the Chinese to do exactly that. They bought him off for other favours.
    1
  1299. Seems a lot of those top jobs in the US are regarded as sinecures - nice pay, no duties, few qualifications.
    1
  1300. Nancy and Schiff and the others are out there making supportive speeches - but... it's not a good look. They are not impressive - seem more like a clown show. Are they winning converts? I think the opposite. Just scarey buffoons is the image they present.
    1
  1301. Seems all the EU can offer is "sticks" - where are the carrots?
    1
  1302. So the EU price for a visa for Russians goes from 55 Euro to 85 Euro - but in Rubles it's more or less the same.
    1
  1303. I wonder when Steven King speculated that this whole war would be over if macho Putin were replaced by a testosterone free woman? Was he thinking of the motherly charms of Virginia Nuland? Or Hillary Clinton? Or Madeline Albright? A bloodthirsty crew all - like the 3 witches in MacBeth. Bubble bubble toil and trouble.
    1
  1304. I used to think that Biden was just a doddering, delusional zero. Now I’m coming to the view that he’s delusional and very dangerous. He has delusions, (seriously, a symptom of senility) and he’s acting on these delusions.
    1
  1305. I see Zelensky getting the "bum's rush" out of Trump's office. A great photo op!
    1
  1306. Do I detect a note of sarcasm?
    1
  1307. I think Trump want's to pre-empt any "Putin puppet" type of flak, before he deals with Russia.
    1
  1308. So far the punishments (sanctions) of Russia have worked out very well for Russia. I expect the "punishments" of Saudi will work out very well for the Saudis.
    1
  1309. Starmer: "No cost is too great to save Zelenski - the destruction of Ukraine, the destruction of Europe, World War III - mere bagatelles compared to saving Zelenski!"
    1
  1310. Ukraine strategy: Replace a Delusional with a Zaluzhnyi.
    1
  1311. All suicidal.
    1
  1312. Kamala was asked to produce a book of blank verse - good work Kamala! You got it!
    1
  1313. Is Syrsky a Russian mole?
    1
  1314. LOL - a lot of supposed Russian plans are merely Western assumptions - then the West can say "see, the Russians didn't meet their objectives!" - the West - poor fools - being played into self-destructuve behaviour.
    1
  1315. A string has two ends....
    1
  1316. If a bunch of U.S. missiles come deep into Russia - how will Russia know if they are nuclear tipped or not - should Russia initiate MAD protocols? Or wait. And see if it's an attempt at a pre-emptive nuclear attack?
    1
  1317. So Lindsay says that on the freeway to Nuclear armagedden - there's no off-ramp.
    1
  1318. Your re-assurance force? Umm, all I can reassure you is that it's gone. Not sure where, but there you are.
    1
  1319. Dim the screen. Zone a bit.
    1
  1320. So the EU is working to wreck their own secure in-country food production, in favour of importing and relying on temporarily cheaper food from sketchy old Ukraine. That should work out well. I suspect the EU is being "played" here - weaker and weaker.
    1
  1321. They should re-build LA out of brick.
    1
  1322. Is Biden continuing to be"suckered" into actions destructive to the USA? Putting 4 of the top US prime irreplaceable military assets into restricted waterways, surrounded by near and hostile shores - seems a tad risky to me. Who knows where missiles may come from, or where supersonic torpedos originate?
    1
  1323. When you identified the orange (which was plainly an orange) as an orange, your credibility was confirmed and enhanced. Good work.
    1
  1324. So, the acceptable plan is: "Russia didn't defeat us - we did it ourselves - we could have won, but Biden stopped our long range missile magic.
    1
  1325. A lot of "misreadings" - Alex - please don't get overpowered or confused by over the top Western hypocrisy LOL
    1
  1326. The USA tried that once already - Erdogan remembers. It's a good way to make friends.
    1
  1327. It will cost the West a lot of money to transition to a Green economy - too bad all that money is now going for more expensive oil and gas.
    1
  1328. Russian women will no longer be able to buy Coach bags.
    1
  1329. one hour > 435 comments. Will I ever be first again?
    1
  1330. So if England sanctions Scotland and refuses to bail it out - I guess Putin or China could come in and bail them out - seems a standard Western sanction.
    1
  1331. Biden has done huge damage to the USA - world loses trust in USA’s financial system, in its legal system, in the US dollar, in its military, in its media - all largely thanks to Joe. Scarey indeed. All to weaponize and misuse government institutions against a political opponent. The bad effects are going to take years to fix - if ever.
    1
  1332. 5% of GDP? As the EU's respective GDPs shrink - not too bad....
    1
  1333. Macron, Scholz - a coalition of the despised.
    1
  1334. Don't let Coke or Pepsi in - keep the profits in Russia, the way it is now...
    1
  1335. Seems Europe is trying to excise itself from the body politic. Cutting itself off from everything. A tumour with illusions of grandeur.
    1
  1336. Donors want to take it up a notch!
    1
  1337. Why is the West disarming itself?
    1
  1338.  @KennethITGuru  LOL very very few actually elected leaders in the West
    1
  1339. MI6 is blowing its credibility - surely that story was planted in MI6 by the Russians. No other possible explanation - except maybe galloping stupidity.
    1
  1340. Speaking of sanctions – when the embargo on Cuban cane sugar was implemented the USA switched to high fructose corn syrup. It’s in everything now - not a good sweetener, metabolized differently from straight sucrose, cheap though. HFC is now in major use and vested interests want to keep it that way. Looking at the trend in death stats in the States due to diabetes, heart attacks, and other obesity related diseases - hey! Maybe Castro won!
    1
  1341. I bet Biden and co shouted direct threats at Zuck - family, friends, type Mafia threats.
    1
  1342. Little enough to lose.
    1
  1343. Uk provides woolen fighting mittens to Ukraine.
    1
  1344. Well, if the USA sanctions the entire world - in effect this will leave the USA as the most sanctioned of all. An island of sanctimoniousness - in a sea of commerce.
    1
  1345. The US is upping its false narrative game - folks are onto the standard USA "we don't need evidence" trope. And are trying to appear reasonable - more credible
    1
  1346. Yeah, we've provoked before! Always got good results! Of course, provoking mice is a tad different from provoking both a bear and a tiger at the same time.
    1
  1347. Aussi Election laws 1) no true statements are allowed. Penalties apply.
    1
  1348. Scholz - buck up old fellow - I beleive that Trudeau still loves ya!
    1
  1349. A great KEYSTONE COPS tribute group.
    1
  1350. gosh, you think?
    1
  1351. I object to the "Sulky Liver Sausage" description - not accurate, he looks more like a Petulant Liver Sausage to me. Or maybe just a moody liver sausage. But definitely a liver sausage.
    1
  1352. Raw toast maybe.
    1
  1353. Wonderful and right-on imitation of Trudeau - but Joe, well, he needs a bit more wandering, a touch of maundering, a bit more losing the thread, maybe a Corn Pop with balloons anecdote or two. Not a joke.
    1
  1354. But Ursula, who will bell the cat?
    1
  1355. Seems another self-goal by the West - a few Uranium rounds to maybe get 2, 3 tanks - meanwhile the world-wide propaganda loss is huge. The West seems to be losing the larger political and economic wars, the wars that really matter, and doesn't even know it.
    1
  1356. Odd coincidence.
    1
  1357. LOL Boris is so off-topic these days.
    1
  1358. Biden's speech, the rabble-rousing tone, the militaristic staging, the encouragement of hostility towards American voters - like a scene from "1984" and echoes Dr. Goebbels at his best! Pretty darn bizarre and scarey. Hopefully will lose him lots of votes.
    1
  1359. So the NATO operation would be over in three days? - yes, NATO would last three days - then it's over. Clear thinking from the crying sage of Washiington.
    1
  1360. There are two Andromeda stories - one from the Greek, one from the New York Times. Oddly, I find the Greek one more believable.
    1
  1361. Dangers of auto-correct - changed "taters" to "tatters". Oops Ursula
    1
  1362. Seems if a Western country displays some signs of sanity, some appreciation of reality - it gets sanctioned too. Gotta keep that dream alive!
    1
  1363. If they venture into Ukrainian airspace they may have to change their name to the 101st Formerly Airborne.
    1
  1364. Trump should redirect that 4 Billion directly to the people of southern California. It's the right thing to do and I think folks would recognize this.
    1
  1365. it's a diversity policy - draft all the LBGTQ folks (a real opportunity) and send them to Ukraine.
    1
  1366. So Elensky says the Russians hide the number of North Korean casualities, by marking them specially by burning their faces. Maybe Zelensky hasn't twigged to this easy counting thing....
    1
  1367. EU doesn't have 800 billion - and even if it just printed money it has no defense production infrastructure. So it's just talk and continued weakening of the EU. All to try to build tons of out-moded weapons.
    1
  1368. Except he's lost his touch, a failing con man, the old ploys look obvious and pathetic.
    1
  1369. Well, the Roman citizens had no say in choosing leaders, just as we today, and the citizens of Ukraine certainly didn't.
    1
  1370. Biden pushes the Red Button. The (now smouldering Whitehouse) walks it back. “Joe honestly thought it was the Bathroom Help Button.”. “An honest mis-push. We still love him.”
    1
  1371. Pathetic that the EU is going around begging - asking for handouts. A loss of face - more to come as they continue to get weaker and poorer.
    1
  1372. The pinprick attacks on Russia might inspire Russia to speed up their full takeover of Ukraine.
    1
  1373. Why doesn't Boris go for a "credible look" hairdo? Is his hairdresser a Russian mole? His deranged appearance - combined with his frantic paper shuffling delivery and strange content, creates a wonderful Monty Python caricature of a mad political prattler.
    1
  1374. The West works hard to disguise Russia and hide reality behind clouds of propaganda and misinformation. And then bases its strategies on this false reality!! Lao Tzu says to “always know your enemy”. Looks like the West is actually fulfilling a major part of Russia’s war work for it. Quite amazing.
    1
  1375. A "pacified Russia"? - easy. Just stop poking it.
    1
  1376. Ursula seems to have a "small woman" complex.
    1
  1377. Pelosi looks like a suitable romantic date for King Tut.
    1
  1378. If you sanction everybody, it's sort of like sanctioning yourself.
    1
  1379. Second shot - after the 2nd and successful fuel drop - is all in shade - if you look really closely you can catch a glimpse of the sun lit side - stripes still there.
    1
  1380. I wonder if the USA blowing up part of Germany's infrastructure will make any Germans or Europeans question who's really on their side?
    1
  1381. Trudeau (tenor) and Podalyak (bass) - a barbershop quartet minus 2.
    1
  1382. Yeah a dandy way to affect an election - simply remove the voters.
    1
  1383. Seeing those young Ukranian soldiers fooling around in a kindergarten made me sad - They're just recalling to each other "remember when we were just innocent little kids?" "Amazing! Now we're grown up soldiers..." No. You're still just sons or little brothers, - and always will be...
    1
  1384. With all those disparate air defence systems firing off, there's sure going to be lots of things in the air for them to shoot at.
    1
  1385. Talk about the Zelensky Curse - the Biden Curse is much more effective - slower acting perhaps, but it's there. And virulent.
    1
  1386. Elenski curse is transmissible by green tee shirt.
    1
  1387. CIA - open for business - great opportunity for Russia to plant some double agents!!
    1
  1388. The Way of the Wombat!
    1
  1389. Man, the so called "report" on Putin's list of purported symptoms - it sure emphasizes the arm long length of symptoms that creaky Joe has - and that are clearly, painfully visible.
    1
  1390. France just sending troops in - without air superiority - is a recipe for an embarrassing disaster.
    1
  1391. Biden is a sheep with its head stuck in a fence.
    1
  1392. most of Western civilization has benefitted from trading with Mrs. Caterina Smith! Come and join our happy band! Cash only please. Don't crowd the aisles.
    1
  1393. If they're taking money out of the "Peace Fund", perhaps it should be renamed to the "Lethal Weapons' Fund". Just to clarify.
    1
  1394. Amazing how the EU and the USA continue believing in, and keep trying to fulfill, Biden's fever dreams. Biden's initiatives (Ukraine, sanctions, weaponizing and discreditting the US government agencies, sending billions of dollars to Ukraine for Russia to dispose of, open borders) - all of them, all of them, mental vapourings of a man whose brain was, and is, clearly going. Time to come up for air folks.
    1
  1395. If Turkey left NATO, then all the West's considerable military assets there - such as the Incirlik air base, would have to be removed or evacuated. Wonder if the US would fight to keep them - like they have with portions of Cuba and Syria.
    1
  1396. Biden hates Scott - he'll try and get him.
    1
  1397. A mellow manner, very inoffensive, very ineffective.
    1
  1398. War criminals giving medals to other war criminals.
    1
  1399. All the bridges have been sold - we're working on re-hypothecating them. Patience.
    1
  1400. Well, the UK and the US can certainly help Ukrainian grain exports by using depleted uranium armaments there. EU says we have to import Ukrainian grain - the depleted uranium? Ignore it.
    1
  1401. I wonder if Don Lemon would say Janet Yellen 'ISN'T IN HER PRIME'
    1
  1402. SUPPORT TRUSS! Is the new rallying cry!
    1
  1403. A certain irony here -  the main “benefit” that Globalism advertises is we end up with one big happy world – no more warring countries – great! So nice in theory. But to get there, we need a huge, maybe world ending war. Really nice. To quote a US officer in Vietnam:“We had to destroy the village to save it.”.
    1
  1404. Seems the West puts words (that they make up) into Putins mouth, and then rail against the words they've created - odd indeed, but sort of works sadly.
    1
  1405. Ah, Nancy - the Wicked Witch of the West - "Take the apple, my child".
    1
  1406. If anyone greives for Wali it's the relatives of the men he's killed who are sad he didn't die sooner.
    1
  1407. So Ukraine can sneak drones several hundred KM into Russia? Makes me think that Russia can sneak drones if required into Serbia.
    1
  1408. How will Biden, once he forgets his stated MORAL OUTRAGE, trade with Saudi and M. b. Salman? Perhaps: "We demand more of your oil, but we can trade, we can trade, maybe we can give you a few more journalists to cut up. Will that work?"
    1
  1409.  @yurichtube1162  Too dictatorial - all stick - no carrot.
    1
  1410. A great example of a voice from the MSM narrative cloud.
    1
  1411. We can't all be first!
    1
  1412. Speaking of sanctions – when Cuban cane sugar was banned, the USA switched to High Fructose Corn syrup. It’s in everything now - not a good sweetener, metabolized differently from straight sucrose, cheap though. HFC is now in major, major use in US food, and vested interests want to keep it that way. Looking at the trend in death stats in the States due to diabetes, heart attacks, and other obesity related diseases - hey! Maybe Castro won!
    1
  1413. Ukraine has lots of pensioners - I trust the US will now ship 1000's of shotguns (and shells) so they (the pensioners) can earn their keep by clearing the air of jet fighters and establishing air superiority.
    1
  1414. Thinking of a ship being attacked by a coordinated swarm of 500+ drones - it'd be like trying to swat gnats. First they spell out: "you're going down" then they attack. Or then the real hidden hyper drones do.
    1
  1415. Obesity in America? Put it down to high fructose corn syrup which is in everything now - not a good sweetener, metabolized differently from straight sucrose, cheap though. HFC came into use big time when the embargo on Cuban cane sugar was implemented. Now HFC is in major use and vested interests want to keep it going. Looking at the death stats in the States due to diabetes, heart attacks, and other obesity related diseases - hey! Maybe Castro won!
    1
  1416. So, Erdogan is now the de-facto head of the EU? Interesting.
    1
  1417. BORIS: "If Ursula Von Der Leyen were a black widow spider, which she obviously isn't, she would have eaten the entire G7."
    1
  1418. Add a few "F's and you have it: "FFFFT".
    1
  1419. I see Biden maundering on, and Kamala doing her uncomprehending giggles, and Nancy Pelosi doing her strange old woman gestures - these three bizarre buffoons are the leaders of the USA - the asylum metaphor really strikes home.
    1
  1420. The Idiot, institutes a prosecution for being called an idiot - so now he's a criminal idiot.
    1
  1421. Ukraine running through so much ammo because when a soldier is killed, his unused ammo goes with him....
    1
  1422. Drones were taken out in the air - some falling debris dented a wing or two. So, close but no cigar.
    1
  1423. Boris Johnson: "You doubt that Putin is working against us behind the scenes? ? I mean, just look at my hair! What more proof do you need?"
    1
  1424. Hillary's looking ever more spooky.
    1
  1425. Oeuf! That's harsh!
    1
  1426. Well, the USA is putting their Patriot System's reputation on the line for all the world, for all potential customers to see. Big buck losses for the States if they’re flops.
    1
  1427. Johnson does look very well fed.
    1
  1428. China to Macron: "YOU're the accomplice!" - don't you see it?
    1
  1429. The world wants regime change - in the USA. Even the Saudis want Biden gone and are doing what they can here.
    1
  1430. Hopefully Trump drops the misguided Biden views on Russia - the way is simply to out compete, not try and hold them back through military action or threats
    1
  1431. I think the Russians have found the way - to finally ditch the tyranny of the USD.
    1
  1432. In Britain Heinz sells Beanz
    1
  1433. Uhh Frank... May I be frank? You've got it backwards.
    1
  1434.  @franksmith417  Don't get tied up by the river - Ukraine took over a village street, but in doing so lost a huge amount of resources and men - a Pyrric victory for the Ukrainians, a real victory for the Russians.
    1
  1435. Nuland's cookies - yum! She times the cooking with a smoke alarm.
    1
  1436. "Germany has some gaul attempting to do so." - best typo of the day! I suspect the correct statement (given Macron's recent win) would be : " ...some Gaul has Germany".
    1
  1437. A lot of the GDP of the West's countries is just shuffling paper - no real product - just zero sum gambling. Russia produces real things - not just paper.
    1
  1438. The security badge required to sit at the G7 round table is now actually a red nose. Foam rubber. You clip it on. Your nose. Says it right there Joe. Confirms your bona fides.
    1
  1439. Seems Russia is doing well, draining Ukraine's military - I bet they also are happy draining the West's ability to fight too.
    1
  1440. Seems Europe's main ally (the USA) wants to cut off Europe from ANY energy supplies - Gad! I suspect the "friend" is a charming psychotic.
    1
  1441. US would like Germany arrest Putin - US wants Germany gone anyway.
    1
  1442. No! Keep him going - one of Russia's main unknowing assets.
    1
  1443. Focus, focus.
    1
  1444. Lord Dannat - a question - if Putin goes, why do you expect a new leader that is less hawkish than Putin? Why? - the generals I 'm aware of are much more warlike than Putin. Seems you have hopeful fantasies nested inside other hopeful fantasies.
    1
  1445. Like kids taking apart a clock.
    1
  1446. War-Mongering for Laffs with Bouncing Boris!
    1
  1447. 29% of those polled want Biden to run again - and they're all pro-Russian!
    1
  1448. French folks can't retire until 3 years after death.
    1
  1449. Right on - good for the corn farmers but bad for everyone else.
    1
  1450. Seems like Putin was effectively subsidizing all the EU 's and UK's energy bills. Now the EU has forced the removal of those subsidies they're all upset and blaming the "gift giver".
    1
  1451. Putin's like a policeman warning a guy breaking into a car - "if you steal that car I'll have to use my truncheon!". Crook and his mother start to shout "Police brutality!"
    1
  1452. A cap on what a country can pay for gas and oil? There are already a lot of poverty stricken countries who can't pay the price. So now the EU wants to voluntarily join that happy band?
    1
  1453. Ursula: "We must give our citizens money to afford boat tickets. That ship may come back."
    1
  1454. Because Mr. Moon is angry.
    1
  1455. Maybe Poland can get a special bit of legalize from Germany for tank exports - sort of a "Baerbock Rider" - this fits with the circus aspect of it all.
    1
  1456. Biden has done so much to destroy the States - not just the economy, foreign affairs, but the internal destruction of the US institutions and traditions - the very things that made the USA different and powerful - the freedom, the trust, the nation that had done it right - now all in tatters. Joe was a one-man wrecking crew.
    1
  1457. Questionable assertions you've got there.
    1
  1458. Good (sort of) to hear you mention “suspicious” in relation to the attempted assassination.. Dems perverted the US justice system, perverted the US financial system, perverted the US media, - all in big gun attempts to eliminate a rival candidate, all failed. Only one option left – pervert the Secret Service – leads to a conclusion that’s just too evil.
    1
  1459. I see a great Harlequin Romance novel. Whoosh! She, a high powered but lonely bureaucrat, he, a bear riding but sensitive dictator. They find love.😍
    1
  1460. Russia is happy to have Ukraine keep draining resources and money from the West. In the larger strategic war every bit of aid to Ukraine is a win for Russia. It’s like the West is focussing on the little war Russia has set up for them, meanwhile the West doesn't appear to know it’s in a larger war that it’s clearly losing. Van der Crazy is sooo outclassed.
    1
  1461. He already looks the part for sure -
    1
  1462. Once Trump is in prision all bets are off - they have full physical control over him then - an easy "off".
    1
  1463. For every Taurus that hits Moscow, one (or equivalent) should be returned to Berlin. Seems fair
    1
  1464. If Russia withdrew - there'd be a massacre when the Azov guys returned to all those "collaborators".
    1
  1465. Biden: we don't want to escalate, and I hate my self for escalating. I really do.
    1
  1466. Kamala talk show? Could be economical - all it needs are 6 or so Kamala clips that could be played back at random to interact with her guests.
    1
  1467. No, she was advising the pilots how best to fly and navigate. It's a hard habit to break.
    1
  1468. ZZZelenski and his scammers are starting to overplay their hand - the suckers are starting to look at each other, glance at each other, and think: "what?", "something smells here", "are we being played?".
    1
  1469. Boris wanted to do a "pinkie promise" with Putin. How childish of Putin to refuse.
    1
  1470. Putin knows.
    1
  1471. Gold is denser than Uranium - not a bad idea to use it in shells instead. Except for the way Uranium behaves in a shell - it sort of "self-lubricates" its way through steel, thus much favoured, despite its poisoning effects.
    1
  1472. Biden's speech is interesting in that he gives equal weight to "inflation" and "genocide" - gee, seems like he doesn't know or care how to weight issues. Just words to him.
    1
  1473. Macron hugging Trump - maybe Macron is hoping for some sort of osmotic effect - and to gert some of Trumps political poer to be absorbed.
    1
  1474. If Tulsi Gabbard also went over to Trump we'd have a triumvirate of intelligence, competence and realism, - against the ga-ga word salad party whose main plank is ill defined "hope".
    1
  1475. it'll come
    1
  1476. Ironically I can't help but suspect that it's Russia itself behind the EU-weakening sanctions....
    1
  1477. Austria is going to get into "hot water" with the EU - just how is the EU planning to heat up that hot water?
    1
  1478. Focus, brother, focus.
    1
  1479. Biden's going to start wearing one of those water squirting button hole flowers - a good laugh. No joke.
    1
  1480. Martial law in South Korea - could it be because the most hated US influencer - Johnny Somali - is currently there?
    1
  1481. EU sounds like it's on a diet - we can only allow LNG to go to non-EU pipeline ports, plus we can't eat fattening foods anymore .
    1
  1482. LOL who would trust a "security guarantee" from the EU nations? It's never worked before...
    1
  1483.  @franksmith417  LOL no excuses needed.
    1
  1484. If Russia has access to that Transnistra weapon dump, perhaps "poisoning" a certain % of the rounds, so the detonate in the barrel, would be a good idea.
    1
  1485. While U238 itself isn't madly radioactive - its "daughter" products - the elements produced when it decays (including polonium218, Radium226, lead214 etc.) are more radioactive and dangerous. A long lasting poisoning of an area.
    1
  1486. Besides losing the physical war and the economic war, I suspect the West is losing the PR war too. Its claims are getting more and more bizarre and blatent and easily dismissed.
    1
  1487. Trudeau: "Yes, Olaf. Your turbines, why, I remember wearing one when the family and I visited India. Mine was pink silk! What a great dress-up that was! A bit hot though..". Olaf: "sput sput, Trudeau you idio..." (expires).
    1
  1488. plus Russians and Ukrainians have many bonds. The Ukrainian dictatorship - not so much.
    1
  1489. Kamala's little pep talk reminds me of a press conference president Kennedy gave - the question from the press was in regards to rumours of some sort of plot involving the White House - Kennedy replied that it was indeed true - the code name was "VAT69".
    1
  1490. "according to UK sources - Shoigu is too slow on the Russian advances..." - Impatient are you, UK sources? Turn around - as the Ukrainian situation continues - look behind you, it's bigger - the West is being drained of military hardware, their economies are tanking, they are showing disunity and their world wide reputation and power is plummetting. Why would Russia stop this spiral?
    1
  1491. With tariffs, and sanctions and counter sanctions - I think we're getting the geopolitical version of "pilot induced oscillation" - just release the controls and it'll right itself.
    1
  1492. Maybe Iran wants to show up just who the war-mongers are - Israel can do all the preemptive thing and just look a bit like a child with a tantrum.
    1
  1493. Should have a Russian looking guy coming in and blowing out that little lighter flame.
    1
  1494. I'm afraid you're looking in the wrong direction old chap. Unless you've got the <sarc> flag on.
    1
  1495. Nuland has magical thinking. She also has nukes...
    1
  1496. Gosh, I guess if Stoltentberg gave a loaded gun to a child, and the kid shot several schoolmates - Stoltenberg would claim he wasn't responsible in any way. "It happens.."
    1
  1497. It'd be best for Ukraine to get into BRICS.
    1
  1498. Zelensky is afraid the USA might come (partially) to its senses.
    1
  1499. I think Macron was let in on a little secret: "Pas de problèm, we'll take care of Trump, " <wink, wink>.... but the guy missed....merde!
    1
  1500. I could vote for a Musk\Gabbard ticket.
    1
  1501. If you sanction everybody and everything, it's sort of like you're sanctioning yourself.
    1
  1502. The West has constructed a great propaganda story - but now Lindsay is actually beleiving it!! And uses it for planning! And it’s all made it up in the first place! A fantasy. Sure dangerous to use a mirage for planning. Very scarey.
    1
  1503. Not sure on the EU protocol here - if a country's leader has put you on an active "to kill list" - are you still supposed to applaud him?
    1
  1504. MS Inman should have brought up how China has successfully re calibated free speech. And how we should follow them I suppose.
    1
  1505. With lots of disparate air defence systems all operating, I think Russia just has to send a few dummy missiles over to stir up a hornets' nest, and then in the confsuion, slip in several real ones.
    1
  1506. Not what Russia does - that's the USA's way.
    1
  1507. The Canadian general in Moscow is holding out for a more diverse set of interrogators.
    1
  1508. I understand that the 8th round of sanctions consists of all senior EU politicians looking Putin in the eye (on Zoom) and holding their breaths until Russia concedes.
    1
  1509. Sounds like the US economy is in tatters! Tatters!
    1
  1510. "So, how did you end up in the clink?" - "I typed too many forbidden "N"s (flipped 90 degrees)".
    1
  1511. A small beam of reality shines in? Maybe.
    1
  1512. "'I'll show myself out." "If I can find the exit.".
    1
  1513. Forced evacuation of an entire population to points unknown sure has an ominous ring to it....
    1
  1514. All non-Guardian opinions - equals mis information - Easy
    1
  1515. Well, if Joe has sent 40-50 billion to Ukraine, he could boast that he's sent $1000 per peson out of the country.
    1
  1516. Another big loser is the White House press secretary - KJP - she no longer has to make up non-comments to cover the obvious. Or, maybe she's a winner - telling truth can be very releasing - feels good.
    1
  1517. Her Washington code name is: "The mindermast" - you see how it's tricky there?
    1
  1518. so with Biden do we humour the tumour rumour or what?
    1
  1519. The West is acting crazy for sure - we just don't want berserk-crazy
    1
  1520. seems USA wants to de-populate Ukraine - might be easier to exploit it then. Ruthless capitalism.
    1
  1521. Wasp? Looks more like a dead pterodactyl to me.
    1
  1522. Romantic actually, Jill on the streets of Paris, playing the wind-up organ, with a trained imp on a string with a cup for the money
    1
  1523. Odd, for sure. Every action seems to benefit Russia or China - and yet they claim to be fighting them - I sort of think of Biden as being the ultimate mole.
    1
  1524. Russia should release a cloud of little "dummy" drones in Kiev - to fly around and follow Elensky - the buzzing would drive him mad.
    1
  1525. All those things that we drove Russia to: like alliance with China, alliance with Iran, with North Korea, the invigoration of its economy, strengthening of its military, land gains in Ukraine, - we will want Putin to reverse all these good things! It's like we're global puppet masters, you know?
    1
  1526. A loss is the kind of victory that you don't feel good about....
    1
  1527. A lot of tough street talk!
    1
  1528. The good old boys joking about taking off their shirts. A very bad and flabby visual. Also forgetting, in their own classless way, that there is a lady amongst them. Talk about team building!
    1
  1529. In WWII Canada took away Japanese Canadian's assets and moved the Japanese Canadians to camps. Regarded as Canada's shame - taught in schools as shameful - seems we're doing it again - target an ethnic group and demonize them and steal their assets - good old Canada.
    1
  1530. The tour would have much more the desired result if Nancy was replaced by Tulsi Gabbard...
    1
  1531. Strolls with the trolls.
    1
  1532. What a combo!
    1
  1533. not first, not second, but present and meaning well.
    1
  1534. I sure hope Putin attends virtually - too risky to meet with the "mafia" in person.
    1
  1535. Every time "convicted felon" is used - it reminds folks of the way Biden warped the judicial system to thwart justice.
    1
  1536. Has Zelenzky thought of Patreon? Every bit helps.
    1
  1537. It and its daughter products are long term radioactive - it's like a dirty bomb.
    1
  1538. Javelina is a type of Peccary - a wild pig.
    1
  1539. just fill it with propane - sure to be an open light somewhere. Works for gophers.
    1
  1540. Seems if a leader, such as Putin, wants to state the simple truth - we need a motive. Lots of imagined motives floating around - we have to assign a motive of our choice to the statement. Can't have a motive-free statement. We must tilt it our way!!
    1
  1541. AOC and Joy have done more to elect Trump than they know. And they continue...
    1
  1542. The West and the NYT are desperately trying to explain events in terms of their own propaganda - NYT: we say Russia is weak, disorganized, has poor weapons and is losing. Now, how do we wrestle current events into a version to match those givens? And not appear like idiots. It's getting hard.
    1
  1543. Those anonymous UK sources - one of them I know - with those hyphenated English names - Major Little-Bird - is a reliable leaker.
    1
  1544. Gosh. Trying to interfere with the US election by telling the truth? Outrageous!
    1
  1545. It was a victor's smile, "no-one messes with the Bidens." (smile)
    1
  1546. Is the EU going to re-hypothecate the Leopard tanks? Like they do with gold?
    1
  1547. Yep, the Dems could still win - they still control the US government agencies - including the Secret Service, and access to the voting machines.
    1
  1548. Seems a lot of the West's economies are simply paper - shuffling exercises moving paper financial statements back and forth in a huge zero-sum gambling game - and this movement of numbers back and forth gets counted as real economic activity - but it's just numbers, paper, not hard assets or resources or production.
    1
  1549. Your news reporting style - the way to go. The MSM news reporters are so plasticized, so well coifed and made up, that they enter into "uncanny valley" where they are really distanced from us and sort of weird and creepy. Over produced.
    1
  1550. Ironic that if a European country has open elections - guess who moves in to take advantage of this openness? Yep, the EU or the US. So the proper defense is to not have open elections.
    1
  1551. Big loser is the US Justice system.
    1
  1552. Putin comes across as an honest man, who expected honesty in others - he was wrong. But exposes the West as untrustworthy and not worthy of negotiations.
    1
  1553. And all shipped in ships burning bunker oil.
    1
  1554. Ukranian secret services. Hide in plain sight is their creed.
    1
  1555. Not too worry - the Canadian military is simply giving the AZOV guys sensitivity training.
    1
  1556. I wonder if the UK DOD is basing its strategy and advice to the UK Gov't on its press releases? Heaven help us. Pronouncements from a dream world floating in a comforting cloud of propaganda and wishful thinking.
    1
  1557.  @alrent2992  It's not much in Rubles - about the same as before.
    1
  1558. Felt very sad about Vlad the whale, I just blubbered.
    1
  1559. Some of the Russian troops have epicanthic folds! you see! A problem!
    1
  1560. Joe's still "in charge" - that makes him dangerous - like a cranky old grandpa with a submachine gun. He's still fouling up the Ukraine war - trying to make it impossible for Trump to resolve - so he's keeping a dangerous war going just out of personal spite. Sort of evil actually.
    1
  1561. Who benefitted by Epstein's?
    1
  1562. Biden could be on Mt Rushmore I suppose, but he'd have to be facing backwards.
    1
  1563. Like Elon the engineer says: "the best part is no part" - "the best wars are the wars we avoid"
    1
  1564. report didn't specify which model of Cessna it was.
    1
  1565. First ten club - OK - I'm fulfilled.
    1
  1566. Now Anibar. Thanks EU!
    1
  1567. Hmmm in War you don't need to apologise - is that why the pentagon doesn't want one?
    1
  1568. The photo: - Scholz is like the exasperated dad, Elensky is like the hopeless, clueless, nere-do-well son.
    1
  1569. So Ukraine offensive failed because Ukraine was believing its own propaganda and using it for planning. Even now we see lots of Utube guys who put out similar propaganda to mask Russia's successes. Unless it's Russia itself putting out these "anti-Russia" posts.
    1
  1570. Seems if all the Western leaders instantly and automatically sing in unison: "sham referendum!" , with no information on methods or details of the referendum itself, this strongly implies "Sham judgements, sham comments". And easily discounted.
    1
  1571. Boris at one time seemed sharp enough - now he seems dopey and prone to stupid ideas - the edge is gone. I honestly suspect he's had an "event" - a minor stroke perhaps or the "brain fog" associated with long COVID. He and Biden - what a brain trust they are.
    1
  1572. Luv to see Kamala and Zelenski in a debate - now THAT would be a salad!
    1
  1573. gotta warm the place somehow...
    1
  1574. Yeah - it seems that "genocide" is the slur of the week. Of course if you use it too much it looses its power - the word gets discounted - except if you use it to describe your hangnail - in front of the Israel Knesset - as Zelensky did.
    1
  1575. Ötzi! I never knew ya! You've gained weight!
    1
  1576. Looks like a Russian ship got zapped in harbour - wonder about Tomahawk missiles - seems such missiles can come in pretty anonymously from a long way away. Like - who fired the missile and from where?
    1
  1577. That vid of Nuland, if you pan downwards - you almost can see the cloven hooves.
    1
  1578. Nice to see Zelensku posed on the third floor landing of an apartment in front of the hotwater radiators. Impressive.
    1
  1579. Zadly that's the case - "Sorro" is acceptable. It's the bees I feel sorry for - now they can just "Sssss" - no buzzing allowed - now they sound just like snakes for God's sake.
    1
  1580. Snow White and the 8 dwarves. Let's see, there was Grumpy, Bratwurst, Dopey, Blackie, Chunky, - I forget the rest.
    1
  1581. Ironic that the 10 day lettuce would have made a better PM than Liz Truss.
    1
  1582.  @grissom2023  Club him with the dog.
    1
  1583. With gummy bears.
    1
  1584. Joe's still "in charge" - that makes him dangerous - like a cranky old grandpa with a submachine gun. He's still fouling up the Ukraine war - trying to make it impossible for Trump to resolve - so he's keeping a dangerous war going just out of personal spite. Sort of evil actually.
    1
  1585. Love the way that your microphone cover matches your beard. A bit more grey needed perhaps, but a good fashion statement.
    1
  1586. Starmer to send 25,000 bobbies with truncheons to Ukraine.
    1
  1587. It was too warm in the G7 conference room - a problem. We heard lots of inane comments/solutions from the G7 leaders. There's fighting in Ukraine - a problem. We heard lots of inane comments/solutions from the G7 leaders. Do we see a pattern? Are we down hearted?
    1
  1588. To get into the "BIG BOY" press conference you may have to lie about your height.
    1
  1589. US in a conflict with China - "Uhh, China, old pal , we're a little short on artillary shells to shoot at you, can you maybe produce some we can buy from you? Are regular fiat payment arrangements OK?"
    1
  1590. That's a pretty big leap to assume that a regime change in Russia or China would magically lead to sweetness and light outcomes - could be a heck of a lot worse.
    1
  1591. "I'll gladly pay you tomorrow for a hamburger today" - Wimpy's statement - wouldn't be out of place in the Ukraine analysis document.
    1
  1592. Those positive Kamala polls…they might have the same effect as in the Trump/Hillary election. There, Hillary was a shoo-in, bound to win according to the polls - result - a lot of Hillary fans didn't bother to vote. No need. On the other hand the riled up Trump guys were galvanized. So if you're ahead in the polls - don't boast about it.
    1
  1593. How will Biden, once he puts aside his moral outrage, trade with M. b. Salman? Perhaps: "We demand more of your oil, but we can trade, we can trade, maybe we can give you a few more journalists to cut up. Will that work?"
    1
  1594. a 360 degree reversal? You retreat to the East and suddenly, surprisingly you attack from the West - a good surprise move, AnaLeana
    1
  1595. We must remember that other Greek, Aeschylus, who was killed outside of Gela, Sicily by a tortoise. Dropped by an eagle which had mistaken his head (bald) for a rock suitable for shattering the shell, and killed him (Aeschylus) stone dead. A word to the wise.
    1
  1596. So the Russians make casualties unrecognizable - but we know they are Korean.
    1
  1597. The Face that launched 1000 ships! Nancy Pelosi! Gad!
    1
  1598. So NATO can send missiles that can be used to hit "legitimate" targets. Who defines the legitimate targets? Russia? They say OK you can send some here and here etc.
    1
  1599. very becoming!
    1
  1600. Anybody can delete a comment - just report it as pornography - it goes right away.
    1
  1601. I think I see it now. AZOV is being targetted - the "Z" is banned, now the "V", so we're left with AO. I bet those go next and AZOV will simply evaporate.
    1
  1602. That last vid where Nurse Obama wakes up Joe and leads him off stage - it's not fake - I see lots of cell phones up there recording the same event - can they all magically record the same cheap fake?
    1
  1603. Laughably over the top😂
    1
  1604. Zelensky want's to meet Trump as equals... I guess Trump could find a logger's shirt and bib overalls to match the rustic Zelensky look....
    1
  1605.  @Maximer77  Like sleepy Joe.
    1
  1606. Well if Putin was arrested - it would be like the assassination of Arch Duke Ferdinand - and have giant snowball effects....
    1
  1607. The Democrats in the USA got hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and they have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness - and will be very hard to excise.
    1
  1608. Biden's defintely got a wallaby loose in the upper paddock - not consistent or reliable.
    1
  1609. Hi Mistress's name was Olga, or was it Ludmilla?
    1
  1610. Maybe next to sanction are Russian names – if they do, that leaves Boris in an awkward position, and Ursula – well isn’t Ursula the female variant of “Ursa” or “Bear”? And isn’t the Bear, Ursa, the symbol of Russia? Ursula? We’re waiting...
    1
  1611. There are no friends when you're playing musical chairs.
    1
  1612. Besides losing on the military and economic fronts, the West has been drawn into losing on the "soft power" front. Weaponizing and thus frittering away all of: trust in USA as a reliable ally; status of US dollar as reserve currency; credibility of the West's MSM; trust in UK's financial markets; - all going. Biggest defeat of all.
    1
  1613. The government in the USA has been hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and those folks have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - but currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness, the control of vote counting - and will be very hard to excise.
    1
  1614. not the benefit of America - just the imagined benefit of the Biden administration. - Yes, sickening.
    1
  1615. Macron might have heard about some deep state plans to make sure Trump is not available to take office.
    1
  1616. So the West continues to exploit African resources - now human resources - by extracting the best and the brightest citizens from these countries - leaving behind a population of poorer, slower folks to stew in their own juices - absolutely OK - in fact if you speak against this explotation by emigration you're shouted down as racist. PC says very good.
    1
  1617. Can Russia buy Italian bonds?
    1
  1618. Why would delicate little Finland join NATO - an actively at-war opponent of mighty Russia? Seems counter intuitive. Finland becomes, right away, at war with Russia. Odd.
    1
  1619. I see how Disney can save Snow White - cast Cookies Newland as the evil witch "Have a cookie my dear..."
    1
  1620. I could see Russia really upping their military game to capture one of these signature missiles....
    1
  1621. So Russia refuses to sell at a dictated price, takes its oil off the market - thereby driving oil up to $300 and taking away the West's ability to finance all its military aid to Ukraine. Is this yet another West produced backfire?
    1
  1622. Love that Ukrainian apologist saying Ukraine can win because we can call up more troops - "we have 40 million available" - does that include the girls under 15 - about 2 million, the men and women above 65 - another 3 million or so, the boys under 5, and of course nursing mothers? - plus I guess you need folks to farm and run the economy....
    1
  1623. The entire western media has lost its reputation. Once that trust goes – impossible to get it back. A huge loss for the West.
    1
  1624. Looks like her face could hold a two day rain
    1
  1625. re the Russian agents in Mexico pushing illegal US immigration - a much simpler, more logical conclusion is that Biden is a Russian agent. A mole.
    1
  1626.  @kazimierzspaczynski7401  But very funny. His deadpan humour is a laugh riot.
    1
  1627. Well, we now know why they're caledl EU VICE-presidents. And why they need so many.
    1
  1628. I'd like to see Macron and Starmer do a turn on stage as a pantomime war horse. I always like those pantomine horse things - always good for a laugh.
    1
  1629. LOL sleepy Joe - one of his standard things when speaking is to say "Ah Mary you really did it, where are you Mary? Ah, there you are...". You'll often see this trope of his, it's a signature thing he does - recently he used it for a senator who died last month - oops. LOL "where are you Jackie, are you here?" Jackie: "Follow me, Joe."
    1
  1630.  @jaemate21  While U238 itself isn't madly radioactive - its "daughter" products - the elements produced when it decays (including polonium218, Radium226, lead214 etc.) are more radioactive and dangerous. A long lasting poisoning of an area.
    1
  1631. one hour, and 837 comments - gad! The first 1000 club is all we can hope for these days.
    1
  1632. Another Peace Prize winner in 2009, Barack ("I have a drone")H. Obama “for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”
    1
  1633. Tesla just sells cars... sure - remember when Amazon just sold books....
    1
  1634. And the Church of England has told God, that for all those millennia, he's(its) been mixed up about his/her gender. Can they arrange an operation of some sort?
    1
  1635. Biden: "uuh, whose funeral is this anyway? It's not mine I don't think."
    1
  1636. Amazing - the real thing that Putin wants is for the US to send (misallocate) more of its treasure for disposal. So those who vote for more cash are actually the Putin supporters - they just don't know it.
    1
  1637. The Kellogg plan - you accept and you get a magic de-coder ring, a baking powder submarine and a Captain Video plastic raygun.
    1
  1638. Well arresting your opponents on fake charges is a good method - they're using it on Trump. Weaponizing the justice system. Long tradition of this method.
    1
  1639. That Elenski version lurking, hiding in the background, is the real Elenski - just being cautious you know, testing the waters with a double...I mean, being right next to an obviously animatronic Biden - anything could happen. Animatronic Biden could be a bomb.
    1
  1640. Zelensky: "Mark, I am your father!"
    1
  1641. Walk and Talk - Virginia N.? - Waddle and Twaddle is more like it.
    1
  1642. It's not a fission bomb - it's radioactive poisoning - like a dirty bomb.
    1
  1643. The whole thing in Ukraine seems like ethnic cleansing on a massive scale - and the country itself (Ukraine) has been tricked into doing this "cleansing" to itself.
    1
  1644. To clarify the New York Times' headline: "The laughable ICC warrant emphasizes Putin's aura of impunity."
    1
  1645. Little known fact: Alexander the Great also saved turtles when he could.
    1
  1646. Hmm, good idea to switch rooms at the last minute.
    1
  1647. Biden to the 85th Paras: “Yes, in Poland you'll see us training women to stand in front of Russian tanks. Our main line of defense. It's part of our new set of WOKE strategies.”.
    1
  1648. Due to military complexities, the Ukrainians are advancing backwards whereas the Russians are retreating forward.
    1
  1649. Oh Bill - If Ukraine had had the nukes - it simply wouldn't exist now.
    1
  1650. Wasn't there a report of Ukrainian soldiers recently going through re-occupied territory and hunting down "Russian sympathizers" and killing them? Another media gaffe?
    1
  1651. Ah, those good old European values, stealing, nationalization, support of dictatorship that jails any voters, shelling of civilian areas - Yep! promote this stuff - it's the European way.
    1
  1652. LOL sleepy Joe - one of his standard things when speaking is to say "Ah, Mary you really did it, where are you Mary? Ah, there you are." You'll often see this trope, it's a signature thing he does - then he uses it on a long dead person - oops. LOL
    1
  1653. Walz used that written referral death phrase: : 'He means well" - on himself. Thus demonstrating....
    1
  1654. Kallas is so secure in her world view - she "knows" she's right - like the Nastys"knew" they were right, like Mao's red guards "knew" they were right, like Pol Pot's guys "knew" they were right. Unshakable conviction. Makes it easy to demonize other human beings, other races. Leads to inhuman results...
    1
  1655. Great if Elenski could meet a nice German woman and maybe settle down somewhere.
    1
  1656. He's not dead. He's just resting.
    1
  1657. A new word for the lexicon!
    1
  1658. All those thousands of handy dandy little shoulder fired anti-aircraft missiles - can now be bought on the black market. What a boon this will be to world-wide civil aviation!

  1659.  @markbowden7238  buttocks or bollocks - make up your mind.
    1
  1660. 179th! It's getting hard to be number one here.
    1
  1661. How can we weaken the US military? I know! Take away its fuel! Lets drain the strategic oil reserve! That'll work! Is Biden channeling Putin?
    1
  1662. LOL So Russia has some individuals shoplifting butter - OK - the USA has organized gangs going in and looting entire stores.
    1
  1663. Could Elenski defect? Just stay in the US?
    1
  1664. I wonder who controls the video feeds from the debate? Will there be independant feeds?
    1
  1665. so no-one messes with a Biden ... Is there such a thing as self-inflicted messing with? Or is that just incompetence?
    1
  1666. Canadian kids are taught about Mr. H.'s facists - and that we Canadians are so ethically far above those horrible 1930's German people! Didn't teach that the Germans were ordinary people (just like Canadians) but they got totally misled. We're seeing that now in Canada as the popualtion is learning, and taking on, the Gov't approved hate for an ethnic group - Russians.
    1
  1667. If he behaved as the CDN gov't reports - he was mentally ill -

  1668. It's like the White house has become a "protected workshop" - where the handicapped can work and produce happily without answering to the real world... except... there is a real world.

  1672. A few Blackhawk helicopters could get 'em out - no problem.
    1
  1673. Well, Bill: it takes a lot of energy to build out renewables, to build the generation, the storage. Too bad the EU no longer has that excess energy. In extremis, (energy emergency) it's easier just to revert to coal.
    1
  1674. Her outfit was rather outré - like a Mondrian, but the blue blending exactly with the flag behind - is it like a green screen effect they're hoping for? If they got the entire EU parliment to wear that colour, then stand them up against an EU-blue background - it'd just be floating, talking heads - too spooky.
    1
  1675. Maybe Trump is trying to engineer or set up a "graceful" exit from Ukraine that would be acceptable to the NeoCons and the US public - an exit that could be characterized as a win of some sort.
    1
  1676. Leader of the Free World? Get somebody good. Maybe Putin.
    1
  1677. Bolton and the neo cons are all fixed on military issues and regime changes - meanwhile, the USD is being zapped and the Western economies too. That's where the real battles are - once your resources are gone - pretty hard to get a strong military going..

  1680. LOL - the anticholesterol drugs' (statins) side effects reportedly include subtle brain fog - every leader in the West is probably on these....
    1
  1681. Leopards? Abrams? We're a little low, though we have a quite a few Think Tanks we could let you have....
    1
  1682. The over-the-top CIA disinformation campaigns are causing confusion and mistrust - for the West - as the stories are just too bizarre to be believeable and so very easily disproved. Pentagon is just saying "hold off CIA! - you're srpeading skepticism about OUR carefully crafted narratives."
    1
  1683. Windy, was it?
    1
  1684. Yes, trowel it on
    1
  1685. Is it true that the CzechRepublic is considering renaming to the CechRepublic? and is also looking at improving Mucha's "Slav Epic" art work, to ensure no hint of Russia is in it? Just a little retouching.
    1
  1686. The Baltic States - it's like the 3 little mice figuring how they can best frighten the cat. Sort of cute actually.
    1
  1687. Should Russia help out the EU and pre-place sanctions for them on Uranium, Titanium, Aluminium and rare earths?
    1
  1688. Ahh, Macron..another flip flop flap! Give it up.
    1
  1689. Farage is doing the right thing - to stand up and confront the strident liars! The ones that have got us in such a mess. Good for you Farage!

  1690. Soon they will be at Trump's feet and gently wag their tails - nice visual. Thinking of The View...does twerking count here?

  1692. Yeah, once the Joy Stick was surgically removed, it was largely uncontrollable. @rashmigupta9 
    1
  1693. So no border between Ukraine and Poland? So Russia just keeps going?
    1
  1694. So the press secretary says the video of Joe Freezing on stage is a deep fake - can she in fact show us the actual video of the event - so we can compare?
    1
  1695. Seems the EU has been suckered into fighting itself - like a good jiu jitsu move from Russia and China
    1
  1696. Biden, Biden....Wasn't he the brains behind the Finchley Mothers' Christmas draw?
    1
  1697. The USA is starting to realize, that if you consistently betray your friends - you lose your friends. Does the US have any left? Who wishes them well?

  1698. In fact I want to have your baby.
    1
  1699. Putin's main asset in all this is Biden.
    1
  1700. The West has constructed a great propaganda story - but now they're starting to believe it! And use it for planning! And proposals! And they made it up in the first place! Like little kids playing imaginary games. With real guns.
    1
  1701. So... Philly Cheese Socks.

  1702. disagree - he's more strategic - he's working the bigger issues beautifully, like a judo champ, getting his opponents to work against themselves - It's more than just plain tactical.

  1706. Ya gotta express support for Biden - Biden's "machine" still has power, still has the power to "get you".
    1
  1707. West seems to have a goal of breaking up Russia. Is this so China can easily storm in and take over the bits, the resource rich areas? To expand China, and make it even stronger?
    1
  1708. The West thought that Bruce Lee was a 98 pound weakling. Oof!
    1
  1709. When you see Putin - taking care of business - and then you see Biden struggling with an inappropriate attempt at "Happy Birthday" - Clown World? Clown Country.
    1
  1710. I suspect BOJO has long COVID and its brain fog symptom.
    1
  1711. Boris as a boy's name is pronounced BOR-iss. It is of Russian and Slavic origin, and the meaning of Boris is "small; battle glory".

  1712. ICC has just demonstrated that it's bought – and now completely invalid as a legit justice organization. Nice work gentlemen.

  1715. If you flip the narrative, you've described the West's MSM - try it. It works, and makes your screed a bit more sensible.
    1
  1716. Ah, the books - "Peppa Does Ukraine" is a good one. "Peppa Meets Javelina", another corker.
    1
  1717. Trump could agree to supply body bags, but any more support? I don't think so.
    1
  1718. The West works hard to disguise Russia and hide reality behind clouds of propaganda and misinformation. And then bases its strategies on this false reality. Lao Tzu says to “always know your enemy”. Looks like the West is actually fulfilling a major part of Russia’s war work for it. Quite amazing.
    1
  1719. OK - all of you folks reading these comments, please try and keep that secret Uk/Ukrainian rocket deal that Alex mentions secret. Don't want the Russians to be warned.
    1
  1720. USA thinks that strikes in Crimea will frighten the bear? I think not - it'll harden the bear's resolve and bring on a nice big counter strike. Another example of the West believing its own propaganda and using it for planning.
    1
  1721. That toilet bug was just part of Bibi's biome. He produces "listening stools" - all part of IDF intel. Clever.
    1
  1722. Bojo's writing is a sort of road map to world destruction. The steps are well laid out. Good work Boris.
    1
  1723. Would be nice to see Zelensky arrested - and his mansions confiscated
    1
  1724. Biden's speech seemed to be all about "not questioning the results of an election" - and if you do, you're going to jail - well, if anybody knows how to fix an election it's the Democrats - we may see a landslide for the Democrats. Surprising but these things happen.
    1
  1725. Get old Baerbeck lecturing China - whoosh! Whatever can Germany offer China? Why would they pay any attention at all? Boggles the mind - not realpolitik - but fantasy politik
    1
  1726. they have lots of male immigrants who have no loyalty for the country they are in - not good as soldiers.
    1
  1727. Well, no more Russian uranium exports to the West, and China pulls out of Hinckley Point reactor construction.
    1
  1728. A fine point - but valid.
    1
  1729. Used to be good - now just seems a MSM propaganda parrot. Odd. Like a friend having a stroke and being totally changed.
    1
  1730. Ben Wallace is angry because Macron wants out of the mutual suicide pact. Makes a lot of sense - makes the others appear simply mad.
    1
  1731. So the Uk wants to get off dependence on foriegn oil and is tossing sanctions around like party confetti - meanwhile Britain is having China build and run Britain's huge new set of nuclear power plants at Hinkley Point - tens of billons of dollars, all to sell electricity to Britons at above market rates. If China and Britain "fall out" it could be a huuge loss for Britain. It's a massive vulnerability. Pretty sure the reactors would have remote China access only "turn off" software hidden in it somewhere.

  1732. $400 thousand per
    1
  1733. The Democrats in the USA got hi-jacked by a couple of crime families (Clintons, Bidens), and they have little interest in the health of the USA or of the West. They're driving it down, just the way the Mafia wrecked Sicily for so long. These folks make up the regime to change - but currently they have the money, the power, the impunity , the ruthlessness, the control of vote counting - and will be very hard to excise.
    1
  1734. Over prepared, with a cold, and no teleprompter - OK, you get a pass Biden.
    1
  1735.  @johnlandis6430  Yup, a very anti woman move
    1
  1736. Maybe draw all the Ukrainian forces down South to continue with an oddly "too easy" advance - and then blitz kreig across to Kiev.
    1
  1737. Yeah, clear the area for nukes?
    1
  1738. Biden and co. have the power, and have had a lot of time, to fiddle with the actual voting processes - masters at playing the system. And whomever owns the voting and vote tabulating machines, owns the election. Black boxes. No cross checking. Dial in who you want. Maybe this is why an “unwinnable” candidate is OK with the Dems. Make sure to take exit polls to give the results a sanity check. BTW Elon made a veiled comment re this very problem at Madison rally
    1
  1739. We talk about "stupid moves" - maybe for Joe B. we need a new one - "existentially stupid moves".

  1740.  @jerryshul8482  You're a bit boring Jerry. Get more info and we can talk later.

  1741. Trudeau and Ursula should elope. "I like you Urse (may I call you Urse?), you see, my electorate doesn't understand me.."
    1
  1742. Seems the West is still believing its own propaganda re Russia - and basing its planning on this cartoon version. Maybe it's just me, but I think things go better if plans are based on reality.
    1
  1743. Got the start of a great stage play there....
    1
  1744. Looking ahead, I wonder how the Dems will spin Biden's death? Just a hiccup?, A bad night? He's still sharp? How?

  1745. "No biden Commander, no more biden!"."otherwise you get impeached!"
    1
  1746. So Russia has to import more ammo from North Korea, is the brave little Ukrainian Government now going to have to import Cannon Fodder from other countries?
    1
  1747. Seeing as China is central to the UK's massive new Hinkley Point nuclear reactor - slated to produce a good proportion of the UK's energy - well, here's hoping the UK doesn't get sanctions here - and China extricates itself.

  1748. Whoopi and her gang in the top positions of the US Gov! Someone do a skit, please.

  1749. Nuland: how to cook delicious treats - Without gas!

  1750. It's more than stupidity - it smacks of the evil of the Nazis - promoting race hatred. Is that something that Germans do?
    1
  1751. Why does the Democratic party have "Incompetent" as a candidate requirement??
    1
  1752. Well, if the USA runs out of aluminum, they could switch pop cans over to use depleted uranium.
    1
  1753.  @somethingsavedmylife.1341  Gas? Nope: PR disaster, a defeat for the Russians if they do that. Use water, flood them out or just starve them out.
    1
  1754. You echo the experience of a lot of us. The Western propaganda is so pervasive, and once you buy into it - almost impossible to wake up.
    1
  1755.  @geoffreydahl6843  In the West if you want to get rid of a public figure - it's easy, just trot out the "sexual misconduct" card - a simple erasure - done. Person is no longer a human being worth considering.
    1
  1756. Frozen Russian assets - they're being re-hypothicated - like with gold - one ounce of gold - many owners. Don't all ask at once.
    1
  1757. LOL - give your troops viagra - that should help their focus, help them do their job. Help them stay alive and dodge bullets. Good planning!
    1
  1758.  @canadude2010  Most Russians are clearly NOT welcome in the West due to the tsunami of anti-Russian propaganda.

  1759. The houses of Parliment? That's near Barking isn't it?
    1
  1760. Not Musk's way. He has a vision and works for that. Not working for another McMansion like most billionaires.

  1764. From a previous UK Russia conflict: Half a league, half a league, Half a league onward, All in the valley of Death Rode the six hundred. “Forward, the Light Brigade!
    1
  1765. If the long range missiles go into Russia, I'm sure Russia's retaliation will be hidden, or subtle, not suitable for escalation, but things will unexplainably seem to go badly for the UK.
    1
  1766. I wonder if the West is allowed to buy Aluminium, titanium, uranium from a state sponser of terrorism?

  1767. In Odessa replace the statue with one of Joe Biden (two hands out, facing backwards) and rename the square to NeoCon Square.

  1768. The EU: "we always win! Haven't you seen all those Black and White documentaries?" "Inconceivable!"

  1773. Wonder how China feels? Happy to see the other 2 big guys tire each other out? Then they can step in and get the girl (so to speak)
    1
  1774. Late breaking! Presence of N Korean troops proven to be the result of autocorrect. No longer there - thanks to "White-out".
    1
  1775. The US thinks it's using Ukraine as a proxy in a war with Russia. I suspect that Russia is doing the same thing (but better) - using Ukraine as a proxy against the US in an economic and political war. Huge US bank collapses, China turning against the West, Iran and Saudi joining together, a discreditting of the West's financial/business structures - all freely happening while the US focusses on Ukraine.

  1776. Not trenches.... graves.

  1777. Interesting thought - once we see the rationality of Russia clearly, through non-translated, clear English...good stuff

  1778. Not sure, but it doesn't sound like a compliment.

  1779. They overplayed their hand for sure. I wonder if Biden plays bridge?

  1780. Fort Bragg seems to be an extremist generator - maybe boot camp is radicalizing....

  1781. 850 McDonalds rebranded and reopening across Russia, and no money going back to the former head office in the States. Nice. Sanctions we can live with.

  1783. Biden has classified his entire brain.

  1784. The only thing about Starmer, is how can he be so boring? A spark of interest there.
    1
  1785. Someone seems to have got all the white Christian countries (the West and Russia) trying to decimate each other. Balkanize Russia, destroy the EU and its economy, de-industrialize Germany, depopulate Ukraine. Is this Lao Tzu at work? China sure would like to add big parts of Russia to itself, it sure would like to take over parts of the near East from a weakened USA.
