@ThatWouldBeTelling @sj_zero Don't forget CAFE, which adds huge amounts through mandating ever-increasing mileage, which requires ever more esoteric technologies to implement (or the fines, which a number of cars already have included in the prices).

Russia advances faster in 2025 than in 2024, but nowhere near as fast as it needs to fulfill the Belousov's promise for 2025 (to liberate all 4 regions). To accomplish that, they needed to reach 60 km^2/day at the beginning of the year and keep it up for the whole year. They're not doing that. And don't say anything about "Ukrainian collapse". There will be no collapse in the foreseeable future.

Asks for missiles to do the negotiating. When they do, screams "not like this".

Now hold on just a second. We're sanctioning Russia like never before, all the while buying their Uranium? Don't these purchases support Putin's war machine?

Saw a great example of a pawn neocon delusion (link below). Here's a transcript:"Dana: So, if they (Russians) want to have attitude with us, I highly recommend that we remind them of that fact. And I have lots of other suggestions for how we can remind the Russians of things. Just ask me.Moderator: I'm asking you. You havew a microphone.Dana: Okay. Well, here's one. So, you know, how did Russians end up in Syria? By the Russians telling the legitimate government of Syria invited them to come in. Well, the Zelensky government has invited us to come in to provide some sort of air defense protection of Western Ukraine. They invited us in for multiple reasons. So, if Russians want to have an attitude about foreign presense in Ukraine, I have two pieces of advice.Dana: Rmemind them of that fact. And then also, my advice for anyone considering putting boots on the ground, they really turn up the noise on the escalation question against you. Ignore that. But if you're going to put people into Ukraine, do it quickly. Don't give them the opportunity to do anything about it. Just have them there. They're not going to do anything once you're there, but just don't have a long lead. Put them in. My two cents, my soap box."Astonishing in many regards.https://youtu.be/e6Hhl-6DNvE?t=1409

First of all, good for the moderator (he's a sidekick of Kofman normally). That woman was bullshitting and being extremely arrogant, without providing any substance before the start of the quote. He pinned her, and made her reveal that she has absolutely nothing, short of an all-out WW3. Which she literally proposes!Second, she styles herself as some kind of military analyst, but she thinks that side B can deploy troops into a theatre where side A is already deployed, and do it before A can react. Just the absurdity of this idea should get her fired immediately.And third, the idea that "(Russians are) not going to do anything once you're there" is deluded in extreme. Of course they will! Realizing this is why Macron et al called off all the previous attempts at deploying NATO troops. Russians told them clearly that they will immediately kill any NATO troops deployed in Ukraine. Macron believed it, but a crazy woman didn't. Or perhaps she already forgot. Or was ignorant of it to begin with.

The transcript feature on Youtube allows me to copy-paste this quote from The Duran instead of typing it in:"And my second question is, will this be used as as an excuse to push the UK back into into the EU? Will they say, "Well, the real reason that we have problems is because we had Brexit, so let's just go back into the EU." They'll never admit that the real reason that this is going on is because of their stupid war against Russia. They've lost the the economic war. They've lost the military war, and they've lost the the economic war. And then it's really hurt the UK in in immeasurable ways. Anyway, uh what are your thoughts there?"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0Tu_5fBUlo#uk #eu #brexit #war

@deprecated_ii @Elliptica @Terry Russians fighting by preserving the men is beyond comprehension of many commentators. They just cannot reconcile their worldview with what's happening.

Okay, so U.S. buys chicken eggs in Russia for human consumption. I suppose it's pretty funny in the context of NATO and saber rattling.But I have a question: how does U.S. pay for those eggs? Russian banks are sanctioned, with narrow exceptions for those that accept payments for Uranium, Titanium, and rare earths.Back in the day, in the run-up for the 2024 elections, Biden added an exception for Russian banks that handled payments for Russian oil. He intended for an injection of Russian oil to drive the transportation fuel costs down, and improve his election chances. But that exception expired on November 1, 2024.Did we add an additional exception for egg payments? Or is there a sleeper channel to pay Russians if need arises? Or did Trump deliver cash like Obama did to Iran?

@piggo @meowski @Leyonhjelm @sun Stonetoss noticed it years ago, and made a comic strip. Its script ran approximately like this:SHITLIB: America is a nation of immigrants!A GUY: Sure, and predominately European emigrants.SHITLIB: But America is also a nation of change!

https://x.com/PeteHegseth/status/1995291042346852861Pete Hegseth's scope-backwards moment. Can't wait to see if Brandon Herrera profiles it at Gun Meme Review. He's running for Congress for the same party, so he might want to pretend he's not seen it.

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/jacques-baud-sanctioned-pro-russian-propagandist-ukrainian-reto-zogg-erkoe/Sanctioning of Baud is asinine and a fine indicator of where Europe is today. But I'm pretty sure they aren't going to stop at that. Sanctioning of Larry Johnson, John Mearsheimer, Doug McGregor, Alexander Mercouris, and Tucker Carlson is sure to follow. Glenn Diesen is going to be straight up imprisoned next (he's a citizen of EUNATO).

Scott Ritter was debanked. Just in case you thought this sort of thing was only at the level of EU when they sanctioned Jack Baud.https://scottritter.substack.com/p/de-banked

@scathach @HackyScientress A technology being fantastic never stopped legislators from mandating it, especially when guns are concerned. Consider the microstamping for example.
