    A stunning new development: The Biden Administration is offering the people of Maui displaced by the fire a one-time payment of $700, while at the same time sending $200 million to the Ukraine, having already sent them $113 BILLION.

    Biden Offers Maui Fire Survivors 'One-Time' Pittance on Same Day $200 Million Announced for Ukraine

    Nauseating.

    Wagner chief among passengers on crashed plane – officials

    Looks like Prigozhin might have finally been taken care of. I'm still agnostic on what really happened here, and have no theories about it that I think really click.

    I don't think it's haphazard at all. What the left loved about the Soviets is that they were anti-Christian and anti-tradition. Putin is bolstering tradition and Orthodox Christianity. It's that simple. The left has always hated Russians. What they loved was a system of government that worked to destroy the Russian people and replace them with a "new Soviet man". Putin spouts none of that nonsense, instead promoting rhetoric that aims to revive the traditional Russian man. Of course leftists are going to hate him because leftists hate all such "fascists".

    In the war between Clown World and the traditional West, Putin's Russia would make a natural ally for the American and European remnants. Both Trump and Hillary understood this, which is why Trump tried hard to cultivate a friendship, and why Hillary publicly lead the left's fanatical attempts to drive a wedge between Americans and Russia. Such an alliance was absolutely terrifying to the left, and had to be stopped at all costs.

I just hope I'm not getting a new job and moving into a mask/vax mandate trap.
    They are distracting people from the resounding defeat in Ukraine, which presents them with a situation that they have to wind down and start making a retreat. It is a far bigger debacle than the pullout from Afghanistan, because of the obviously direct engagement of NATO personnel on the battlefield. A bit of scare of weather lockdowns will come back and stuff like that serves as good fodder.

    My understanding is illegals are getting $2200/month, and of course free medical and dental insurance, etc...

    Yep, climate crisis will be the go-to for distracting the sheep. Along with another coof crisis and maybe an alien invasion, that should keep the fear level cranked up for the masses.

    Another financial system "collapse" would certainly help their agenda too.

    If that doesn't work, WW3 is probably in the playbook to finish things off.

    Good post.
    The Bolsheviks hated the ethnic Russians, just as the leftists in the United States do.
    They have always cared about communism, not the Russians.

    Global censorship has been implemented for the Russian news website, "SouthFront.org"

    The Tucker Carlson interview of Macgregor is very important:
    $1400 per month for American workers who have paid into the pension system for 50 years, but an average of $2200 per month in welfare to illegal aliens.
    Illegals get $2200 but only $1400 for US Retirees - Invidious
    Why doesn't Myorkas care about Americans?

    "Who is Victoria [AKA 'War Pig'] Nuland?"
    🔥 Colonel Douglas Macgregor Answers the Question: 'Who Is Victoria Nuland?'🔥
    "...someone I would not characterize as Republican or Democrat..."

    "...Russia has special appeal, because I think these people had ancestors who came from that region of the world and have a permanent axe to grind with Russians...."

    "...I don't think anyone in government should shape policy based on whatever unhappiness their ancestors experienced in a place like Russia..."
    "...Wherever she goes, there is crisis, conflict and fighting and she is a strong proponent of fighting to the last Ukrainian..."

    This is the problem with having rulers who do not share your heritage, traditions, culture, values or religion.
    Whether it is Zelensky ruling the Ukrainians, the Rothschilds ruling the British, Green ruling the Hawaiians or Myorkas, Nuland, Blinken, Fink and Soros ruling the Americans, they do not represent the interests of 98% of their constituents.

    The same goes for the powerful media and finance systems; these systems were only supposed to operate to advance the interests of the American people.
    Now, they operate against the interests of the American people to promote the interests of a select minority.

    Are there special hospitals that you go to as an illegal, or are regular hospitals required to treat them?

    Strange. On the one hand, the west is apparently lying about the death count on both sides. Russia hasn't lost many, Ukraine has lost nearly half a million. The war is going exactly how Putin planned and he's just being merciful by not crushing Ukraine. Not only that but careful or the US is next!

    On the other.. you have Putin's dog preferring mutiny over continuing to lose men. Now he's heen put down.

    The covid "election variant" is a good name for this charade.

    I think I mentioned this before, but at the time, my daughters had been out on their own for 6 years, and none of them ever lived at my current address or within 250 miles of here.

    I received three mail-in ballots in 2022, unsolicited. They just sent them here. One for me, one for one of my daughters, and one, "just in case I had someone living here who wanted an absentee ballot."

    Here we go again.... - YouTube

    I had rescinded my voter registration several years before the absentee ballots were mailed to me.

    Maybe, the Ukrainian offensive seems to have failed, but we'll have to find out for sure if there was a solid defeat. Seems more like it's just back to an attritional meat-grinder. Russia doesn't seem to be taking over the place, and Ukraine doesn't seem to be kicking them out. There's not really a good impartial source for news of how the war is actually going. Anyone who'd be in the know is deeply incentivized to put the hardest propaganda spin on any information they give. Both sides have been telling us the other is totally fucked and on the brink of defeat almost since this thing began.

    It's not that great a song on its own. If someone else performed it it wouldn't really have the power it does. The power is in the genuine feeling behind it you can detect from the singer. Some of the lyrics are really well done though. I really like, "livin' in the new world...with an old soul".
