  1. Yeah, Johnson (and Trump) have lost control of the House and I fully expect that Thune played Johnson like a fiddle. Johnson not only looks incompetent, but weak. He was clearly shocked that the Senate just went and voted on it. Blaming Schumer was a weak move, because the GOP is in power. And the bad news for the GOP, on top of the elections from earlier this month, is that no matter what Trump does or says, it's going to be his DOJ holding up the files, and there are MAGA who are obsessed with these files and they are not happy and will be even more pissed. And Trump is going to be constantly asked about the files and he's going to constantly lose his temper, lose his train of thought, he's going to rail about Democrats, but people on the right are going to ask why so many files of criminal Democrats are blacked out or being withheld. When Nick Fuentes is out there literally saying "MAGA is dead"....It's going to be amusing if it turns out that the Qanon/Pizzagaters end up being a part of the reason why MAGA fails.
  2. There are a ton of old-school Republicans who are pissed that money got diverted from them to Trump and Co., and they have been waiting their turn in line and think it's their time (and that Trump and Co. interrupted their chances), and they are not going to let the Trump-lites continue feeding at their hog trough. Edit: And none of Trump's people are even close to having the grasp on MAGA that he has, whether it's his kids or the people in his orbit. A whole shitload of those MAGA types will probably go back to not voting like they did before.
  3. My understanding of hashed US-Russian peace plan. As ugly as you’d expect: — Ukr army 2.5 x reduction. Only Ukr army. Note: not 2x as speculated — No foreign troops in Ukraine — No foreign diplomatic planes in Ukraine — Ban on long range weapons that can reach St. Petersburg, Moscow — Ceding territory --------------------------------- This has to be a joke, especially when Trump is out there talking about sanctioning any and all countries doing business with Russia.
  4. Rosneft’s Ryazan refinery suspended crude processing after drone strike, sources say | Reuters
  5. If it was a big enough/profitable enough revenue stream, I bet they would, since besides the revenue, it would be major advertising in theaters for Netflix.
  6. Motherfucker doesn't even realize that if you step back to a 35,000 foot level, the Roman empire never truly fell in the sense that people like Musk claim or think - it split up, with the Western half eventually splitting up into smaller empires/nations - not surprising as their populations surged and national identities were established through language/culture. But the Eastern half, the Byzantine Empire lasted for another 1,100 years. He really is worried about the plight of the white people. He probably read Stirling's Draka/Domination series and doesn't realize it's a A) Dystopian and B) Stirling literally writing a series where all of the worst decisions that could happen in history were rewarded and that Stirling was not holding those people up as ideals to strive for.
  7. Well the Slovakian people are rising up and making it clear that they are on the side of Europe and not Russia. And Hungary is isolating itself, which is pissing off the people - it will hurt them economically and socially.
  8. Tying into the themes of the American Revolution series currently showing on PBS, Trump does not understand that Ukraine doesn't have to outright win, they just have to not lose, and they are doing to the Russians what we did to the Brits - make it too costly for them. Same for the Vietnamese and the French and then the US. It's just that in this case, the Russians are literally next door to the fighting, unlike North America/England where it took 6 weeks to get troops across the ocean, or Vietnam being halfway around the world. Ukraine continues hitting power infrastructure, oil and gas, etc., every single day, and they are probably close to some major breaking points. Well, they already hit one - their ability to sell to other countries has taken a huge hit. They were already dipping into their cash reserves as it is to buy foreign hardware.
  9. Yeah, he has plenty of cash. At his level of access/info, he could probably see a bit of a crash long before others do.
  10. Russians sending cruise missiles into residential buildings because that’s who they’ve always fucking been,
  11. Johnson is not happy at all. He’s lost control, and Trump by proxy. He was trying to blame Schumer, but he’s rattled it went straight to the floor and was voted on.
  12. Mikey seems actually shook up and pissed that “Chuck Schumer rushed it to the floor”. It’s not going to die down, and the media knows they can get reactions out of him, and reactions make great soundbites. There are people on the right who are wondering why the GOP keeps trying to cover for a dead child sex trafficker.
  13. You join The Lemon Party?
  14. Isn't this one of those red lines that Russia complained about? OSINTtechnical on X: "Earlier today, Ukrainian forces carried out an ATACMS ballistic missile strike on a Russian target in the city of Voronezh. The attack is one of the deepest strikes into Russian territory with U.S.-supplied ballistic missiles. https://t.co/jZLhUaqJAh" / X OSINTtechnical on X: "https://t.co/k7cDysfOI9" / X
  15. Massie can read names and the victims can name names. The GOP has a problem that the DOJ can try and downplay, but not completely shut down.
  16. Mace going after Cory Mills. MTG going after Republicans defying her on the Epstein stuff. Laura Loomer saying the GOP has a Nazi problem.
  17. Brisket gets paid to talk. Ain’t nobody silencing him.
  18. Already been done back in the 1950s and only takes a couple of minutes to watch
  19. They can’t shut up the survivors. This was all done with a wink, knowing the DOJ will prevent their release because it’s an active investigation. Let’s not forget that Trump will pardon Maxwell, after she’s already gotten a puppy and ended up in Club Fed. He doesn’t do that unless he has to.
  20. She knows how to fight in the mud, and even though she’s a True Believer, she seems aware that True Believers are there to be used and tossed aside. I think she will survive her next primary.
