FFS, give it a rest already.
Nobody here believes the US is lily-white and it has no bearing on the topic at hand which is the war in Ukraine.

I don' know if we ever got a formal list of which American politicians were receiving Russian bribe money channeled to them through the NRA. Some politicians really shouldn't be receiving regular security briefings.

Have you seen the other guy? Person Woman Man Camera TV.

In Russia in 1950 there were 77 men for every 100 women, the greatest gender disparity of any nation involved in WWII. Russia has a special knack for killing off its male population.

I think this was posted up thread but it's worth re-iterating.  If this was, I think it probably was, a psyop then it's done it's job.  I don't really think it was an inside job as per the second tweet but having Prig yelling at the management, publicly adds to  the increasing internal tension.

A 'certain political party' threatens to send the US into default for spite about as regularly as Putin threatens to use nuclear weapons... for spite.

You'll notice the height aircraft coming in if you're got AA cannon shooting at them. Depending on the airframe, AA guns will aim anywhere from flat on the horizon to straight up. F4 Phantom comes in at a considerably higher altitude than A-10. Since a lot of maps are shaped like bowls, ringed by hills or treelines, its not so easy to get helicopters to fire at you from the horizon line. They need to clear surrounding obstacles to fire.

I recall some time ago seeing a pie chart of documented attempted terrorist acts in the US since 9-11. Al Qaeda wannabes came in a distant second from the primary malefactors. Left wing organizations made up the tiniest sliver of the pie. Terrorist 'immigrant groups' didn't even make the chart due to round-off error. In some (most) circumstances 'both-sides-ism' just doesn't wash.

If someone were to fly a suicide drone into a shelter storing a (future) Belarussian tac nuke mobile launch vehicle that would get people's attention REAL fast. Russians were already panicking earlier in the week because that raid into Russia came distressingly close to an old nuke weapons storage facility which they evacuated in a big hurry. Butting nuclear launchers up against an active war zone is not the most secure thing to do.

The US is going to have to pay the piper, itself, some  day for the past 75 years operating beyond its means playing 'global superpower', the same way Great Britain paid the price 75 years ago for its own previous century of global ambitions. Heck, that day may be closer than we think if the US is fool enough to default on its sovereign debt. Its a bad negotiating tactic  to threaten to shoot the hostage when you're holding yourself hostage.
