But then, they’d fall into the trap.

Bondi and the rest of the muppets like Hegseth, Pirro, Duffy, theyre all there to create content. Theyre there for the cameras, while Miller &. Vought runs things in the background

And if MAGA is screeching about Autopen, Miller probably has that running 24/7

JFC, Russia is running out of fuel, its collapse can’t come soon enough

If Ukraine manages to kneecap Muscovy now, they will not just save themselves but also break Putin’s money flow towards the international 5th columns like MAGA & their EU counterparts, crippling their networks significantly

Oh im sure they wanted

I doubt that the capability exists, meaningfully.

The budget to maintain such an arsenal is not there. The money is not being spent there.

Would the button work ? Would the silo cap open ? Is the wiring still there ? Do hydraulics still work ?

They are not sure either.

The #EPPO has investigations running in #Greece, with common threads among them being the immunity from the law that GR politicians enjoy, their chronic corruption & lack of trust on the part of our society

Greek media are silent, they are talking about “what if ex-PM Tsipras made a new party ?”

I believe the second point you’re making to be closer to what Kremlin wants

An exit from the war that can be sold as a defeat to a superior force, maybe even a reason to mobilize Moscow

wipedroot @dailygrift.xyz · 2d

They can’t escalate to nuclear, not without total annihilation of Muscovy, but mostly because the math of maintaining a nuclear arsenal the size that Russia claims doesnt math.

The *entire* RuMOD budget is less than the US nuclear forces budget

I mean, they have been attacking NATO nations for some time now, with sabotage and online attacks being more prominent, but I guess they could attempt a kinetic strike and test this once and for all

It seems Yarvin is beginning to recognise that power doesn't really believe in his ideas, and he has only been kept around as long as his ideas flatter the powerful.

I’m not Ukrainian. I have no family or personal link to Ukraine.

But I believe in the just and fair defence of a nation standing on the frontlines of a genocidal, unprovoked attack.

Let me explain why the bravery of Ukrainians changed me forever.

Since there's been remarkably little media interest in #Farage's mate Nathan Gill & the bribes he took to promote the interests of Putin's mafia state, please share this photo.

The stench of fraud, bribery & money-laundering around the "patriots" of Reform UK is overwhelming.

Photo: Nigel Farage with Nathan Gill and George Cottrell.
Captions:
Nigel Farage: Said Putin is the leader he most admires "as an operator".
Nathan Gill: Took bribes from an oligarch to promote Russian propaganda on Ukraine.
George Cottrell: Convicted fraudster and money-laundering expert. Farage's friend Andy Wigmore passed documents on Cottrell's arrest to Russian officials.

Norway sends F-35 fighters to patrol Polish skies with authorization to shoot down Russian aircraft crossing the border.

The mission serves both operational defense and as a deterrent against Kremlin provocations, according to Norwegian Defense Minister Tore Sandvik.

⚡️ Warehouses hit in Lviv during Russia’s strike were storing clothing for Polish fashion giant LPP — brands like Reserved, Cropp, and Sinsay — along with tobacco products.

Flames tore through the site, sending thick smoke visible for miles.
