  1. They might also be operating non-fiber optic drones, so there's always some lag and they don't quite stop on a dime, especially if they aren't near the front and are inside Russia proper. I would imagine that a lot of the drone operators are either kids whose parents bribed their way out of a ticket to the front, or disabled soldiers that are useless at the front. They need all of the young able-bodied soldiers for the assaults.
  2. When he tried to rename the DOD to the "Department of War", that should have told you everything you needed to know about where we are headed. I think he enjoys having people killed, based on his recent comments and press conferences. But I don't think he could point out Nigeria on a map, and I doubt he knows how many people actually live there.
  3. Don't buy your drones from Temu?
  4. Yeah how do you even train for that. Battlefield Darwinism.
  5. Yes, let's go in "guns-a-blazing" in a country with 230 million people, where half the people (or more) are Muslims.
  6. I kind of want to take them to Vegas and gamble with them because they are defying the odds.
  7. Marketing for Stranger Things
  8. She does seem to get stuck under sinks or in dryers a lot.
  9. Maduro is not going anywhere. He knows if he flees he will end up in an American prison. He’s got Moscow and Beijing backing him. There is no reason for him to leave. Yesterday both Trump and Rubio said there wouldn’t be strikes on Venezuela. But a few weeks ago he said there would be, so who knows. And Trump won’t be happy if Maduro remains in power after everything that’s been said (but Venezuela is a useful distraction and it helps if Maduro is in power). Maduro has this going for him - any American deaths are solely because Trump chose to pursue this - this is all on him, and he knows it, which is probably why he backed off a bit. This is not a problem he inherited and in fact he’s made it clear that he’s taking action where others wouldn’t. There are even Republicans in Congress who are pissed and making it publicly clear he needs to stop.
  10. This was the aircraft from earlier in the week. Either personnel (Wagoner trainers) or weapons, or both. Could hold plenty of drones, plenty of MANPADs. Russia made sure everybody knew that it was a Russian aircraft tied to Wagoner - they could have used companies that weren't sanctioned by the US or other third-parties/countries, but they used an aircraft tied to Wagoner and operated by a company sanctioned by the US.
  11. Russia is firing everything they produce, with no stockpiles. I would imagine this applies to a lot of other parts of the military-industrial-complex - I'm sure any air defense gets deployed immediately, and we know they aren't keeping up with production of those. And given the state of their logistics system, they aren't replacing their military-grade vehicles nearly fast enough. Wonder how fast they are able to replace their soldiers. This is brutal.
  12. Need to get more Argentinian beef shipped up here.
  13. One of these ships swapped with another from the same class but otherwise looks correct. Also flight restrictions out of Puerto Rico for national security reasons but that doesn’t have to be related to Venezuela. https://tfr.faa.gov/tfr3/?page=detail_5_9106
  14. You mean Bluey or Netflix.
  15. She had a couple of posts about other things leading a banking problems. She talks about how rail revenue is way down because there’s not as much hard cash and goods flowing into Russia and that a lot of the rail stuff is military so there’s not a profit on it.
