Now that Lyndsey Graham,the hawk of hawks(bomb Iran 2wks. ago) has come out in opposition to Ukraine funding(Senate attempt after border bill collapse) in his latest ball washing of Agent Orange,in combination w/Johnson's House of scumbags,Ukraine looks like they are on their own regarding US help at least til a Biden W in Nov. As an American I feel shame that we can actually leave them to dry on the vine and that we have pols. so blind to
history's lessons and so obtuse to our nation's reputation. To pass up a chance to grind Putin's dick in the dirt for what is less than 5% of our Defense budget while supporting a brave,fledgling democracy is criminal,and the trembling ground I feel in my feet are all past R's rolling in their graves.
Watching PBS Newshour just now I listened to Rand Paul bloviating about how the border should be the priority while his party keeps doing it's best to prevent any bill passing so their cult leader can swoop in and fix things a year from now except it will be Biden getting forced to wait a year before he can get it done.

How many f'n years has the border crisis been going on and the repubs keep pushing the false narrative that it's the dems fault? 10, more than 10?

The priority should be to keep promises made to Ukraine to support them no matter how long it takes and it's only taken this long because needed help is being doled out piecemeal to force russia to use up all their munitions and men while Ukrainians die. Now they're running out of everything and the repubs seem happy to let Pootin prevail.

The whole lot of them disgust me.

:peace:

Man that guy can babble on. I read that first document in it's entirety while he was mumbling about shit in the first paragraph. Kind of old news too isn't it?

Life is too short and there's so much content out there to see we all need 3 lifetimes to see even a tiny portion of it.

Thanks for posting stuff like that tho. Wish there were more good news stories about Ukraine kicking russian butt tho we won't see many of those until somebody kicks repub butt. :(

:peace:

I first watched Denys talking about the war, then realized he did not have that much to offer. Found our army vet, who gave some interesting analysis a time or two. Then he was demonetized on Youtube and started his own site for it. Since then he has not been of too great an interest. I like our British fella as he has a lot of relevant links. He is currently visiting the frontline area with a charity that is supplying the soldiers with first aid kits, drones, metal detectors, I think a remote wheeled drone to evacuate wounded or to supply soldiers with. Sent them another $100 USD. Then there is Andrew who does the analyzing the video and satellite images to count the pieces of equipment being damaged and destroyed. You need to have a lot of patience watching his analysis but what he has said about the state of the fighting outshines the others. He has said a number of things that has come true, he has said over a month ago that Avdiivka was lost by spring.

I hear ya,OM,I just heard that FKN weirdo Speaker Johnson say that the Senate bill is a no go due to the border,WTF,you just killed a border deal that was advantageous as a MF from a R perspective.HOW can Americans not see this "Peanuts",Lucy pulling back the football from Charlie B,it's that FKN obvious,OBSTRUCTION,w/a hard on to impeach Mayorkus for no crimes while bending over to suit Agent Orange (twice impeached) while he holds no office(VILE,wish stronger adjectives existed). Have to rub my eyes(AM I SEEING THIS)all these hard line R tough guys (Tubberville,Cotton,Rand,etc.) now have sympathy for Putin,if there were justice in this world Agent Orange and about a dozen or more of these traitorous pricks should be lined up for a firing squad for the damage they have done and continue to perpetrate. I don't say that lightly this BS is off the charts in my country WAAAAAAY past political conflict. BTW these terds just lost a NY Congress seat last night,hope it's a harbinger of what's to come.

Another Russian warship from the Black Sea fleet sunk by a sea drone,damn, the future of surface naval warfare has gotten exponentially dangerous. The fact that highly technical attack submarines whose expense limited the potential players has been transformed the landscape w/these successful drone attacks.Huge naval assets requiring time to mfg.,$$$$,and skilled industrial know how can now be sent to the bottom by adversaries who 10 yrs. ago would have virtually no chance of threatening navies of powerful sovereign states.

yep they lost another one, and a rather important one at that......looks like 3 hits to the side..ck it:


what more interesting is the transformation of the UAV's they're useing and the tech (which imo should be highly secret so that way no other country or faction can use it), overall for a country that has litterally no navy to take out 20% or more of the black fleet is rather impresive

The ship was named after a Russian WWII hero who died on February 14 near Crimea. Strange coincidence, the timing of the ship sinking. But I hear Putin has a thing for dates.

"largest manufacturer of radar equipment designed for monitoring ground targets" Sounds like a good target for Ukraine.
Permians are called to make artillery reconnaissance systems for 200 thousand rubles
Residents of the Perm Territory were offered work on a rotational basis at the military-industrial complex NPO Strela in Tula. This plant is the largest Russian manufacturer of radar stations and ground reconnaissance systems, including artillery. They promise to pay 200 thousand rubles for a month's shift as an operator-setter of computer-controlled machines.

“Job offers for job seekers from the Perm region. Operators-setters of computer-controlled machine tools are required for the Strela defense plant. Work on a rotational basis in Tula. Salary from 200 thousand rubles for 30 shifts. Shift duration is 11 hours. Night shifts are paid at an increased rate,” according to the job description on the free classifieds website.

Conditions include free housing, lunch and work equipment. Employees will also undergo a medical examination at the employer’s expense. Responsibilities include operating lathes or milling machines with the Fanuc system. NPO Strela is located in Tula and is Russia's largest manufacturer of radar equipment designed for monitoring ground targets. The plant produces portable ground reconnaissance radars "Kredo-M1", complexes for reconnaissance of missile and artillery positions "Zoo-1", mortar firing positions "Aistenok" and other military products.

Earlier, URA.RU reported that residents of the Perm Territory are offered work on a rotational basis at a defense enterprise in St. Petersburg. There you have to work in the production of shells for Armata tanks for a salary of 140 thousand rubles.

Good message starting off the election season?
Putin: Russia is close to creating a vaccine against cancer
Russia has come close to developing vaccines against cancer. Russian President Vladimir Putin stated this. According to him, the country is preparing for the effective use of vaccines.

“Russia has come close to creating cancer vaccines and hopes for their rapid and effective use,” Putin said at a plenary session of the Future Technologies Forum. His speech is broadcast on the Rossiya-24 TV channel.

Earlier, Health Minister Veronika Skvortsova promised Putin to release a unique cancer vaccine. According to her, Russian specialists rely on the experience of Western medicine, but go further.

i hear that too.....that is strange.......

looks like UA used a 3rd gen for this strike, i'm surprised the RA didn't have a spotter or anything on that ship, seems like this was a complete surprise hit. Makes me wonder if UA has a spotter USV out to find them. Still rather impressive overall....

While I'm tickled pink at Ukraine's success,I'm saying what's up w/the Russians,this ain't their first rodeo w/losing ships to drones as a good portion of their Black Sea fleet is future scuba diving adventure. What's up w/their radar,and if that's insufficient do to small drones you'd sure as hell think they'd have sailors on watch w/searchlights looking out,I mean duh,it's not like the Ukrainian Navy is out there w/surface combatants or subs,I hope the USN isn't this vulnerable or stupid or a combination of both.

Part of the reason for the strike and the success was that there was fog on the water and not the greatest visibility. That is not much of an excuse when you are being marinated in salt water for the fishies.

Just for fun, want to see a lot more of these.

I just hope my country stops dicking around w/the na na nana na games in Congress and gets military equipment delivered, when you consider that less than 5% of our defense budget is hollowing out the Russian military and a huge % of Russia's initial invasion force is KIA/MIA/wounded which by all accounts were their most skilled/veteran professional forces(paratroops/special force Spetsnaz/best infantry).More importantly Ukraine is on the left foot now and holding on precariously,they need a morale boost that a fresh injection of resources would provide.

Unfortunately the Southern Border of the U.S. should take priority as we're looking down the barrel of Texit! Maybe time to sell a mansion or a couple yachts that he bought with tax payer money. More money doesn't solve a listless war with zero tactics or strategy for a win. They'll have to pay off Mike Johnson and get buy in from the Mexican Cartels before we send more money than we budget for the Marine Corps. Black Rock will find a way I'm sure though; however, it shouldn't be a loan from China to pull their ass out of the fire that US tax payers are on the hook for. They'd be better suited to start peace negotiations and stop the nonsense!!
