The amount of money NATO could save by ensuring a few of these get delivered directly to Alabuga is in the 9-10 figures.

Russia’s refining capacity is collapsing at an unprecedented rate, deepening its soaring government deficit and making the war in Ukraine increasingly unsustainable.

This pressure could have been applied years ago if not for one person and his fear of “escalation”.

Danish airspace is being closed to all civilian drones for the next week.

This is being done in relation to the 7th European Political Community Summit hosted in Copenhagen next week and in order to rule out legal civilian drone use in regard to reported drone sightings.

The drone incursions over airports and other installations will keep happening and continue to spread as long as it remains a risk-free way of destabilising Western Europe without any consequences.

Sikkerhedsaftanden bliver også markant større jo længere vi kommer op.

Ikke en vildt effektiv metode at løse problemet i “fredstid”.

The sooner Western European politicians actually realize that we have been at war with Russia for the past 4 years the better.

🧵Here are 17 things the drone incursions into NATO airspace have taught me about B2B SaaS sales

Man kan ikke bare “skyde dem ned” når de først bliver erkendt over en af Danmarks største lufthavne uden en seriøs trusselsvurdering.

Sikkerhedsaftanden for 5.56mm mod luftmål i fredstid er 3500m.

Det er relativt svært at opnå i nærheden af Aalborg lufthavn.

If the drones over Aalborg Airport are tied to a certain state actor, this is significant escalation given the fact that the airport is also home to SOKOM and Jægerkorpset.

This does however also mean that it will be one of the places best equipped to get an ID on the drones.

The timing is suspect given the recent news involving drones at Kastrup Airport in Copenhagen, but no evidence yet that it isn’t just some moron playing with his DJI.

Luckily there are some pretty competent people a few hundred meters away.

Now if we can just ensure Trump doesn’t speak to anyone else for the next three months, we will be in a very good position.

After having miserably failed in North Korea, DEVGRU managed to successfully recover the “Trump piss tape” from Moscow.

We are so back!

Trump very obviously still believes that “asylum seekers” are people from insane asylums.

NATO could permanently solve the Baltic airspace violation problem with a quick statement from the Russian playbook:

“In Estonia anyone can purchase a Patriot system in the local supermarket. There is no way of knowing who shot down the Russian MiG-31.”

If Russia does this 4, 5 or 6 more times this year, I’m sure the strongly worded letters and summoning of ambassadors across Western Europe will begin.

A 12 minute MiG-31 incursion into Estonian airspace vectored toward Tallinn.

Just another rung on the escalation ladder being normalized and with no major response. Russia only responds to strength and immediate consequences.

Telling a guy who’s defining trait was his Christian faith that you will see him in Valhalla is so hilariously out of touch that it almost hurts.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 26d

Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?

TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

I find it amusing that almost every single pro “civil war” / 2nd Amendment influencer is outing themself as a terrible marksman by claiming you need 25 years experience as a CAG sniper in order to badly hit a stationary target at 130m with a scoped .30-06 rifle.

The shooter was on the roof here approximately 130m from Charlie Kirk's position.
