    Here's a fascinating new development in federal law enforcement: U.S. Capitol Police plan to open a Tampa office. Why?

    The US Capital Police with an office in Tampa. The "insurrection" happened 2 1/2 years ago, and these guys can't seem to get anybody charged with the crime of Insurrection. So the logical thing to do is open a field office.

    And another fascinating development: Hawley to Garland: Explain this 25-agent FBI raid over a simple assault allegation – HotAir

    The FBI raids the home of a man charged with simple assault, after the local authorities declined to prosecute him. Assault not being a federal crime, and there being no circumstances that would have made it a federal crime. Granted, the man and his wife don't like abortion, and are publicly pro-life. The federal law enforcement apparatus has become the Democrat Party law enforcement apparatus.

    An article that is really about Trump as the Undemocratic Anti-Christ. And Ukraine is Jesus. Who must spill its blood to save us.

    Now, kiddies, where does copper come from, how is is produced and refined, and how much of it is there? Too many good points to quote, just read it all and share it.
    It seems to me that any conversion of rotating mass into electrical current would use similar amounts of copper. That the rotation is produced by wind, fossil fuel, nuclear, or hydro, wouldn’t change that.

    However, electric motors will use more copper than combustion motors as will the charging infrastructure..

    The same intelligence sources that confirmed it was happening days before Putin's speech. While everyone was clenching their teeth not expecting Putin to be that bat shit, the US flat out said: he's lost his fucking mind, it's happening. Literal days later: "Ukraine is about to genocide 1 million of it's own people. NATO is planning to invade Russia. Daddy's taking his shirt off, jumping on his horse and Judo chopping some NAZI's"

    I don't believe votes actually count, so I don't think most people wanted Meloni, I just think a lot of influential people would have made more money with her in Parliament as opposed to someone else, so her party won.

    The front line of contact is essentially open fields and abandoned villages. I am as far away from being a military expert as possible, but it seems to me that a bit of air cover would help the Russian forces there. There are some sorties every once in a while, but extremely little. It is strange.

    Does this really qualify as « good news » ?

    At this point, certainly not. Prior to 2014 there were other options. The mistake was to treat Ukraine as any other post Soviet state and rely purely on cartoonishly corrupt strongmen (for the same method, see the Donbas past 2010 or so).
