The bill did have some hundreds of millions of dollars for 'refugee and entrant assistance' included on its own, and was intentionally split apart from HR2 (the 'sweetener' border bill that was talked about in prior months--much as I don't think that one was a good idea just because e-verify is...

Shitposting music to accompany your drone attack was not something I had on my 21st-century warfare bingo card.

This may be the ignorant-civilian and ignorant-of-Russian-industry in me, but... Russia is big. Some say really big. And I would presume they have aircraft plants amidst all that bigness that are further away from Ukraine than this one? Like...this is barely outside of Ukraine's pre-war Eastern...

But...how? Against whom? Are they going to declare double-war (okay, double-'special military operation') on Ukraine? Has the war up till now just been an elaborate feint?

Yeah, as I've seen somebody comment, it's practically the 'theme song' of the Ukraine war on the internet. Apparently it was a hit in Ukraine's electronica scene last October. I remain confused myself why it's showing up on so many of the war-porn videos--including, I think, some of those...

'Russia came, smashed the neo-nazis, and left' is a good propaganda line to tout as well. So probably no progress even on a fast peace-deal until Mariupol falls and that can be portrayed as the real objective all along.

You can't lie in here! This is the War Room College! Could be some kind of local-to-the-area truce going on or getting organized by them, or maybe the Russians/Donbas are using it as a humanitarian corridor-clearer or transport? I think they could use the white flag if they're, say, directing a...

You know, you keep mentioning this, and as far as I can tell it's based off an article where some teenager who had been a university student got three days of training before getting plopped into a checkpoint in downtown Kyiv well behind the frontlines. Yeah, here we go, found the interview...

Ummm... I am no military expert or identification weenie by any means whatsoever so consider this me asking folks here, but at five seconds in it rather looks like el rocket trucko still has rocketos on it. And even presuming the warheads won't go pop unless they're armed (which I'm not sure is...

That was actually an amusing bit. ...unless Rational prinCZess: "Don't be an idiot, you know how unstable and failure-prone a dual-executive, switch-in switch-out system like that is. It buggered Rome over so many times it became their equivalent of a meme. It's not a good system for resolving...

Their ancestors had better logistics. But, then, their ancestors had American trucks, so I guess it checks out.

1) Photoshop would be adding the invasion letters/stripes in post. 2) Do Ukrainians even have T-80s? Is their camo/paint pattern the same as Russia's? 3) Ukrainian mechanics erasing the invasion-letter designators from Russian tanks they're working on makes sense as being thing number one on...

Zelensky clearly has access to ancient Jewish magics that give him status buffs in persuasion attempts. -Globalists are captivated by his hava nagila-playing penis because they love penis more than they hate nationalism. -Journos eat up Ukrainian propaganda because they love ratings more than...

On the contrary, his rank (and related responsibility for the situation--both that of his men, himself, and even, to extent, the prosecution of the war itself) makes him a more acceptable target to celebrate a victory over than the yabo-Ivan BTR-drivers incinerated by antiarmor weaponry who...

In fairness, it's not like there hasn't been heaping helpings of it from the other side (both Ukraine and more broadly NATO/Europe/US) as well over this whole shitshow of a catastrophe. I mean, he and the Russian propaganda remain more likely to be right in that Ukraine is doomed and it's all...

In fairness, I'm reasonably certain there were nutters in the Duma calling for Trump or Obama before him to be assassinated or torn apart by ravenous mobs of Americans and what-have-you. And the defining aspect of politician tough-talk like this, especially when it's popular, is that there is...

I, for one, am somehow just a little uncertain that crediting Russian military planners with Zap Brannigan-like strategic genius is a compliment to their military planning acumen.
