'Be afraid': Ukraine hit by cyberattack
as Russia moves more troops

Original Article

Posted By: MDConservative, 1/14/2022 10:31:58 AM

Ukraine was hit by a cyberattack splashing a warning across government websites to "be afraid and expect the worst", while Russia, which has massed 100,000 troops on its neighbour's frontier, released pictures of more of its forces on the move. The cyber attack unfolded hours after talks wrapped up with no breakthrough between Russia and Western allies, which fear Moscow could launch a new military assault on a country it invaded in 2014.

Comments:

The Russians are turning up the heat. The Ukrainian government is now being subjected to cyber-propaganda. One considers that the Russians are in hacked control of their systems. Ready now...what should the US do if an invasion occurs? Send troops? Will that "coalition of the willing", a.k.a NATO, follow the Leader of the Free World into the fray? Is this the hill on which NATO dies? Or, simply withers.

RE# OP NATO withers..... There will be condemnations at the UN. Strongly worded speeches. Maybe some sanctions. Anything more and Russia cuts off their gas. NATO is not going to war over Ukraine. Of course China, North Korea and Iran will be watching very closely. We have very little, if any, leverage over any of them.

This is a war that the DS wants us to get involved in. The MSM is onboard. Putin won't invade. But there might be people dressed up as Trump supporters, oh I mean Russian soldiers that might start something.

Sadly, I have many friends and former colleagues in Ukraine. I hope that they will remain safe, and able to heat their homes and feed themselves and their families.

The Ukrainian response? Hands up don't shoot. Biden the cheater doesn't even have his memo to Putie ready yet. When Ukrainian President Zelenskiy boards a helicopter and is flown to his place of exile, then we'll know that Putie is serious. He will invade Ukraine on the same day biden the cheater is scheduled to deliver his SOTU address on March 1st to make an example of a very weak Amerika.

Doesn't matter, it's going to happen and no one is going to stop them. Europe cares about buying Russian natural gas to keep from freezing to death a lot more than care about Ukraine. No way Russia and China doesn't capitalize on the Biden weakness sometime before the collapse of his regime. The question is if North Korea will as well in the aftermath. Or, maybe Mexico invades and takes back New Mexico. Don't worry about California, they don't want it. Even a nation with Tijuana has its standards.

As I have said previously, Putin believes that the breakup of the Soviet Union was (in his own words, translated) "The greatest calamity of the twentieth century". He wrote this in a master's degree paper in college. He sees his life's work as reassembling the Soviet Union under the name Greater Russia. He has been working towards this end since he came to power. He will continue to do this until he is dead, I am sure. He sees this as a historic correction of a great wrong, and believes that he is doing an important "good thing". That he is a dangerous, delusional, vicious monster....he doesn't see or care.

Russia made it very clear that Nato Expansion up to the borders of Russia is unacceptable. Blinken is an idiot and has pushed and opened the doors for several failed military adventures. Nuland is in on this and is simply a Neocon happy to start another war. Biden has not a clue. Obama started this with the color revolution in Ukraine. Russia will and should protect herself. Ukraine, although a flashpoint, is probably not where pain will be administered first. Russia is correct in its actions and it is the same response the US has just given if Russia were to put troops ad missiles in Venezuela or Cuba. So this government is leading us to war. The problem is we do not have a leader and NATO is useless. Difficult decisions lie ahead for all us,

In 1994 Ukraine agreed to relinquish the Soviet era nukes in exchange for security guarantees from the US, the UK and Russia. At the time the Ukraine had one of the largest nuclear arsenals in the world. So much for guarantees.

Why is NATO on the border of the Ukraine? Russia is no longer Communist. As always $/gas/oil. WWIV on the horizon. (WWIII is covid).

With Milwaukee's Police Chief Jeffrey Norman standing by his side, Acting Mayor Cavalier Johnson announced sweeping policy proposals Wednesday to help combat crime as Milwaukee faces rising homicides, gun violence, car thefts and reckless driving.

More Milwaukee restaurants have begun requiring proof of vaccination from dine-in customers, saying it's necessary for the safety of staff and patrons and to keep their businesses operating. "It’s not meant to be punitive; it’s meant to be protective," in the way cutting off a customer from drinking is, said Melissa Buchholz, co-owner of Odd Duck, 2352 S. Kinnickinnic Ave. The restaurant this week announced on social media that it would require proof of vaccination — a vaccination card, a photo of the card or the online vaccine record filed with the state — along with photo ID.

The emergence of Web3, a vision of the internet built on blockchain-based, decentralized systems, has many investors licking their chops because of its financial upside. Meanwhile, others are betting on Web3’s downfall. The rise of NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, in popularity and demand may be the clearest indication of Web3’s promise. “NFTs will be ubiquitous,” Brandon Buchanan, founder and managing partner of Meta4 Capital, a crypto-focused investment management firm, told Yahoo Finance this week. “Everything we're doing now, and we're starting with art and collectives, will shift to gaming and everything from ticketing to events.”

Summit View Elementary special education kindergarten teacher Sarah Whaley pinned a LGBTQ pride flag in her classroom and refused to take it down after the school district requested she do so. As a result, the district suspended her for a day and removed the flag in her absence. The local teachers' union responded by encouraging staff to wear rainbows in solidarity with Whaley on Friday. That idea spread to parents and students.

Joe Zich doesn't have one secret to staying on a baseball diamond at age 81. He has several, and he'll tell you all about them. It's the running two to three times a week, the stretching regimen, the tossing to a backstop two to three times a week with a rubber ball he bought from Dunham's Sports. He'll tell you all about the mechanics he uses on the mound, skills that have enabled him to keep pitching after all these years. To reiterate: "Lefty Joe" pitches for his baseball team.

President Joe Biden was not making a 'human' comparison between opponents of his voter rights push with racists and segregationists in a speech this week, said the White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Friday. Rather he simply meant to compare the actions of those who opposed reform with the likes of George Wallace and other notorious figures. The clean-up came after critics accused Biden of divisive rhetoric, and the president has since seen his initiative collapse as two hold-out Democratic senators said they could not support his plan to change Senate rules in order to pass the legislation.

Just over a year ago, millions of energized young people, women, voters of color and independents joined forces to send Joe Biden to the White House. But 12 months into his presidency, many describe a coalition in crisis. Leading voices across Biden’s diverse political base openly decry the slow pace of progress on key campaign promises. The frustration was especially pronounced this past week after Biden’s push for voting rights legislation effectively stalled, intensifying concerns in his party that fundamental democratic principles are at risk and reinforcing a broader sense that the president is faltering at a moment of historic consequence.

A county judge in Texas dealt a blow to Governor Greg Abbott's controversial 'Operation Lone Star' after ruling his national guard's apprehension of an illegal immigrant unconstitutional Thursday. Operation Lone Star was created by Abbott amidst a wave of illegal immigrants from Central America crossing the US-Mexico border. It deploys law enforcement in areas human and drug smugglers are known to use. The ruling could see the initiative stifled with attorneys saying that it could open a path for other immigrants to challenge their detention.(Snip)On Thursday, Judge Jan Soifer ruled in favor of Jesus Alberto Guzman Curipoma, an Ecuadorian engineer arrested in September and charged with criminal trespassing.
