Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland says Ukraine has "biological research facilities" and they're "concerned" Russia may capture them.
That stupid establishment schill Rubio was just hoping for a fast "nope!" from Nuland. When she concocted this contorted answer he shut-up fast and didn't ask the obvious follow-up.
Why? Why is she concerned? Why is it a concern if Russia captures a lab doing experiments to develop insect-resistant wheat? Or create a cure for Athlete's Foot?
The average American is too dumb to put 2 and 2 together. The thought to ask why is there a concern -- and the obvious implications any answer to that question would have -- never enters their empty little heads. Thoughts extend to the limits allowed by the regime, tightly circumscribed by a mental playpen.

I don't think you understand how armed conflicts work.
I don’t think you understand the meaning of the word “we” in this context.
Since we were discussing the US Point-Of-View, and since I am an American who cares primarily about American interests, the “we” referees to the expense to the USofA.
I mean you're completely proving my point with a response like this.
No. I’m rebutting a different point.
but if you want to claim I said “get me an apple” when I really said “get me an orange” just because “both are fruit” OK.
Most of you people have never studied science or logic.
We can discuss big picture or we can discuss discrete points… if I make a comment about a discrete point it cannot automatically be expanded to some related bug-picture question. Worse… you can’t take a discrete point comment; expand it to big picture… then shrink it back down to try to apply it to some OTHER discrete point.

And you are so much smarter, saxi? You have a low opinion of others, don't you?

I’m done with you fucks.
Since I have studied science and understand logic, it would seem that jimb does value my opinions.

Ukraine winning territory, Ukraine also winning hearts and minds!
Today Ukrainian President Zelensky's top advisor has gone on TV to declare that India and China have low intellectual capacity and that Indians don't understand the modern world:

For the mathematically challenged, that comes out to $ 1,595,744,680.85 per liberated square kilometer.
Or $148.25 for every square foot.
Roughly.
The financial trajectory of this, is to liberate the rest of Ukraine we are on target to spend about 256 Trillion.
or precisely $256,839,893,480,040.75
The powers that be that will be earning interest payments on all this debt, thank you for your lack of math skills and encourage you to keep waving your Ukraine flags.
256 trilion, when you split these with 300 milion of American citizens you get 850000 dollars per citizen,,, wow every american could be rich.
The Atlantic - one of the most rabidly pro-war publications out there - is now writing how the final few months of the war will go down. They've come to accept it.
I'll admit, the Ukes put up a more spirited fight than I thought they would. But in the end, it wasn't enough. And it was a bad move. They could have enjoyed some Manchukuo-like state with a degree of internal governance. Now they get nothing.

I'm introducing a bill this week to congress where illegal immigrants from Central America have a path to legal citizenship by signing up to the Ukrainian army for a 3 year term. If they survive they get citizenship to USA or Ukraine (their choice, but only get one), along with a Russian mail order bride/husband and 1 million Ruples each all stolen from Russia during the counteroffensive invasion (not an invasion) of 2025

More a opinion piece, but hard to say without orig source.
But yeah it looked better already, still Putin needs Trump to win the election and that wont happen despite your wet feverdreams about the polling. lol
Chances are better for the dems to get all 3 branches than Trump winning.
And thats it then for you favourite war criminal.
I hear the Tucker interwiew was thrilling. lol
Suppression of Western interviews of Putin has been a thing for as long as I can remember, but Tucker Carlson has no credibility to me.
I LOVED 'The Putin Interviews' by Oliver Stone, it from like 8-10 years ago but is still extremely relevant. Totally worth a watch if anyone hasn't.

The irony is that afterwards, most of them will be literally begging to get back to the banana plantations.

Havent seen that but wasnt Stone heavily criticised for that being way too Putin sided?
Idk if thats availaible somewhere but when you come across Armin Wolfs interview with Putin for austrian TV, i recommend that. Think that was the last big one Putin made before the war. And Wolf was very good.

Yes he was, and obviously it's a tricky balance but I think if Oprah Winfrey interviewed Putin the western media would claim it was too pro Putin. In my view he got access to someone we rarely hear from in the west, and actually asked deep meaningful questions and got answers that really got at the core of how Putin/Russia see the world.

So what I'm hearing is everybody but Putin wins?
