  1. Russia deployed its full hybrid warfare toolkit against Moldova in 2025 - energy blackmail, election interference, separatist proxies, even "denazification" rhetoric echoing Ukraine invasion pretexts. It failed. Pro-European forces won parliamentary elections with 50%+ despite Kremlin-funded disinformation and vote-buying schemes. Chisinau severed all Russian gas imports after Gazprom's cutoff, diversifying to the EU and Azerbaijan instead. A new military strategy explicitly names Russia as the primary threat and mandates NATO-standard rearmament. The pro-Russian Gagauzia leader sits in jail while Transnistria's gas-starved economy teeters toward reintegration talks. What remains of Russian influence? A bankrupt Transnistrian enclave and a few thousand demoralized troops Moscow cannot sustain. Thirty-three years after independence, Moldova is finally escaping Moscow's orbit. Not through war, but through the systematic dismantling of every lever Russia once possessed.

  2. Let's check in on Chechnya and see how they are doing.
  3. We got fucking played again. And Europe getting played.
  4. Almost like they believe minorities and women don't vote.
  5. If Bradley actually goes up in front of Congress next week, do we think they'll get the original guy that resigned as well? And will Bradley take the fall? They didn't have that little get-together last night just for shits and giggles, that was all about getting stories straight.
  6. I would sacrifice the white race for a few hours alone with Eva Longoria.
  7. Pardoning Mr. Silk Road was all the proof they should have needed that he doesn’t care about drugs, .
  8. They moved tens of thousands of men and dozens of ships and a lot of aircraft to prepare for their war against Venezuela and it might come undone becauee somebody couldn’t help but kill a couple of dudes floating on some wreckage.
  9. I’m not going to listen to anybody that fucked Puck’s ex.
  10. Trump is an energy vampire. It all makes sense now.
  11. Well we just discovered that they’ve got factories producing cocoaine
  12. The crime is that if you blow up a ship or shoot down an aircraft, and there are survivors in the water, they are no longer considered combatants, and therefore you cannot kill them legally. I don’t know if it was Hegseth or Bradley, but somebody tried to claim they were legitimate targets because they could call their buddies to come pick up the drugs. That is insane. People clinging to pieces of a blown up boat are not thinking “oh, I’m gonna call my buddies to come get the drugs and continue on their way to America. “ We prosecuted Germans and Japanese after World War II, who had killed Americans and other allies in similar situations. We even hung U-Boat commanders who machine gunned people in the water. And that’s before we get into the question of whether we are actually at war with Venezuela or not. Hint: we are not at war. We also cannot designate them as terrorist based on 911 because I’m fairly certain Venezuela was not involved with 911.
  13. He knows that if the US gets their hands on him, he’ll end up like Noriega. He’s not leaving willingly. And one huge difference between this and Panama is we actually had military bases in Panama. We don’t have that here. We would have to put a lot of troops in to the country from ships and that’s not easy with the way their geography is.
  14. In fact, my gut says that those veterans in Congress would not have made that video unless they knew there were illegal orders being given. The timing of their video and the subsequent flip out by Trump and Hegseth speaks volumes. And I may have missed it, but I don’t recall Trump and Hegseth going out there saying the video is meaningless because they’re not giving illegal orders. Instead, they attacked the video and claimed they were telling service members not to obey legal orders. That means they probably thought they were lawful and now they realize they’re not or they believed that nobody outside of the Department of Defense knew what was going on. Or they were trying to project that they were only giving lawful orders.
  15. Kelly might have seen it in a briefing he would have received as the timing matches up. He couldn’t come out and talk about any specifics because it would’ve been classified, but he could’ve put out a generic video saying don’t follow any illegal orders. I think that’s why Trump and Hegseth flipped out so much over Kelly. I know there’s a story floating around earlier today that the Washington Post got it wrong, but they’ve had ample opportunity to spend a few minutes over the weekend or yesterday to look at the video, and if there had been no survivors, Trump and Hegseth would be out there saying that. Hegseth would’ve made sure to tell Trump. And Hegseth is pretty insecure, and he knows that decorated Navy admirals are not gonna go down for some two-bit Army major who had a spotty and short career and never held a major command. Hegseth and Trump are definitely acting like there’s a video out there and it’s out of their control.
  16. Some of it maybe market manipulation. I’ll see stuff like this pop up
  17. Trump stayed up tweeting hundreds of times in just a few hours last night. Is somebody nervous after a meeting? https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/01/politics/trump-venezuela-meeting
  18. Bradley is going to be in front of Congress next week, so get some popcorn between now and then.
  19. Not that anybody cares what Loomer says any more, but I enjoy any infighting.
  20. I'm assuming the US and Hungary won't have access
  21. Silver Serpents were a much better band, but they went downhill for a good decade before merging with the Silver Jews to become the Jewish Serpents. Being that they are a prog-rock band based out of St. Paul, they are frequently confused with the Jewish Servants, the prog-rock band from Minneapolis.
  22. When your boss goes on social media and says you're an American hero and says he stands by the decisions you made, not the decisions he made and ordered you to carry out, but the decisions you made, well, we know where this ends...
  23. Sen. Mark Kelly just OBLITERATED Pete Hegseth - and by extension Trump himself - with one of the most brutal takedowns yet. Kelly says Trump put a man in charge of the Pentagon who “runs around on a stage like he’s a 12-year-old playing army.” A guy so unserious, so reckless, Kelly literally can’t imagine what our allies think watching this clown pretend to lead the world’s greatest military. Hegseth should’ve been fired after SignalGate. He should’ve been fired every single day after that.
