This is the only war in my life that I fully support. Ukraine needs full support and the consequences of losing are extremely costly to all who hate fascism.
This asshole doesn’t even have the balls to state plainly what he’s doing. Delaying Ukraine aid for as long as humanly possible, to the point of dodging meetings with some of the US’s most important allies. Absolute coward with innocent blood on his hands.
The HUR thinks it can disable the bridge soon. “We will do it in the first half of 2024,” one official told the Guardian, adding that Kyrylo Budanov, the head of the main directorate of intelligence, already had “most of the means to carry out this goal”. He was following a plan approved by Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, to “minimise” Russia’s naval presence in the Black Sea.
Over the past five months Ukraine has sunk seven landing boats and large ships belonging to Moscow’s Black Sea fleet. The latest, the Sergei Kotov, capsized in March after a night-time raid involving 10 Ukrainian Magura V5 amphibious drones packed with explosives as it was on patrol south of the Kerch bridge. HUR officials indicated this was a “shaping operation” prior to another attack on the crossing.
Another interesting piece of the article:
Pro-Kremlin Russian channels last month released an intercepted phone call in which high-ranking German military officials discussed the capabilities of Taurus. The experts estimated that 10 to 20 missiles would probably be enough to destroy the bridge.
Ulf Kristersson is a criminal who used an apartment meant for battered women as his “sleep-over” place in central Stockholm. When confronted about it he claimed he “technically didn’t do anything illegal”. Fuck that piece of shit and his party of nazi-supporters.
Is it just an easy way to deflect from critics by blaming tucker? If tucker had actually asked tough questions would he have been arrested or something?
Tucker went in with the explicit purpose of bootlicking; there were never going to be tough questions asked. Perhaps Putin was genuinely surprised at how naked Tucker's sycophancy was, or perhaps Putin is just trying to make himself look more legitimate by being 'totally prepared for tough questions, no doubt, you guys!'
If Tucker had asked tough questions, the worst that would have happened is that the interview would have been cut short.
Seems like it. Then Putin can say “I’m ready to answer any difficult questions and tell you the whole truth! Carlson just decided not to ask difficult questions for some reason… I’m totally super surprised…”
My bet is Putin is vetting Tucker Carlson for Trump’s running mate.
Once Tucker kisses the ring, and likely commits a crime (or other misdeeds) on Putin’s orders (to serve as puppet-string kompromat for Putin’s plans), Putin will give the blessing for Trump to announce Tucker Carlson as his VP running mate.
Then, just imagine a 2028 Presidential bid from Tucker (win or lose in ‘24)…
I mean in an inverse or parallel way. Just replace the names.
The “interview” is just cover.
My bet is Soros is vetting AOC for Biden’s running mate.
Once AOC kisses the ring, and likely commits a crime (or other misdeeds) on Soros’s orders (to serve as puppet-string kompromat for Soros’s plans), Soros will give the blessing for Biden to announce AOC as his VP running mate.
Then, just imagine a 2028 Presidential bid from AOC (win or lose in ‘24)…
I’m not saying this never occurs. I studied russia/easten Europe for years and am very familiar with the kremlin’s history. Of course it happens. It’s one of their bread and butter tactics.
I’m saying that the string of events this person is theorizing is cut whole cloth from speculation. I think we can both acknowledge that.
Just because something “makes sense” doesn’t mean it’s true.
There’s no “thought to” about it. You can clearly see it sinking in the longer video (pic below). Incredible job in fairness. The 2nd one that hit in the exact spot on the port side where the first one hit looks like it caused a cook off of some kind too. There was no surviving that.
Republicans want Democrats to agree to crackdown on immigration in return for supporting funds
Nothing but an excuse. The White House has already offered considerable concessions, and the GOP just increased their demands in response. It's not made in good faith.
