Russia has lost a large-scale tank battle for Vuhledar in Donetsk Oblast, getting ambushed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine — just as it did during the attack when using tank convoys at the beginning of the full-scale invasion. Source: The New York Time Quote: "In the extended battle, both sides sent tanks into the fray, rumbling over dirt roads and manoeuvring around tree lines, with the Russians thrusting forward in columns and the Ukrainians manoeuvring defensively, firing from a distance or from hideouts as Russian convoys came into their sights. When it was over, not only had Russia failed to capture Vuhledar, but it also had made the same mistake

Doing the same things over and over again. Not an ideal military strategy.

As told by Ukranian Pravda. Uh huh. But if true, it sounds like Russia should quit with the tanks and go with their long-range artillery and missiles.

It's time to admit to ourselves that there are no good guys in this fight. The Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries in the world and Russia is no better. But don't fool yourself, we're only in it for the money. Biden craves his 10% of all that "aid" money and the weapons sellers are drooling over the same huge pile of our dough. No more! Get out of the Ukraine, let the Eurpopeans handle it, if they think they need to. No more money, no more weapons, and for God's sake, don't send any personnel!

Don’t believe it for one second. After the NATO guarantee, doubt Russia is going anywhere. I’ve got an idea; let’s push Russia into the hands of the Chinese. Pretty sure it’s biblical. Gog and Magog, right? Their plan is to ruin the petro dollar. That will be interesting. Maybe our politicians will stop with the deficit spending insanity. I’m surprised the whiz boys at the stock market aren’t more concerned. They should be.

The war about which this post is ... is an 8-year-old civil war. The confederates (now known at the UK) started it and was losing until the United States got involved.

It sure is a major problem when you are receiving huge chunks of income from two sources at war with competing interests. China has pumped millions of dollars into various Biden initiatives. They own him, and he isn't going to blame them for anything--and that will include aggression toward Taiwan well beyond flying a balloon over their airspace. Ukraine has pumped millions of dollars into Biden family members. If he doesn't keep sending money to them, they will spill the beans on the 10% deals and Hunters lucrative "employment". it sure is a tightrope for an old crook with dementia to try to focus on. This can end in two years when a Republican president (Trump or DeSantis), tells the other crook Zelenskyy that future assistance requires that he fess up to the Ukrainian participation in the sweet deals to the Biden family. This is going to get interesting.

Interesting assertion #3. Have you any facts to support the "most corrupt " assertion about Ukraine other than Russian propaganda about Ukraine? IMO, US Dems are easily as corrupt or even more corrupt than Ukrainian officials. And Russian corruption in in a class of it's own, based on having done business in Russia for a decade in the 2000s. I also did business with Ukraine in that same time frame, and found substantially less corruption, although not ideal. I also found a strong Christian church attendance in Ukraine at a grass roots level., with SRO in Catholic church services in Kiev.

CNN Poll: One-third of Americans say Biden
deserves to be reelected in 2024

Posted by Dreadnought 4/6/2023 6:02:33 PM Post Reply
Just a third of Americans say President Joe Biden deserves to be reelected, according to a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS, as a majority in his party say they would like to see someone else as the Democratic nominee for president next year. The survey fielded throughout the month of March and was completed almost entirely before a Manhattan grand jury voted to indict former President Donald Trump last week. It cannot reflect any shifts in public opinion after news of that vote was revealed. CNN polling released Monday, which was conducted after the vote to indict him, suggested that it had little effect on views of Trump himself.
Biden administration’s Title IX changes

Blanket bans on transgender athletes participating on school sports teams consistent with their gender identity would constitute a violation of Title IX under a set of proposed changes unveiled Thursday by the Biden administration. Under the administration’s proposal, schools would be prohibited from adopting or applying a “one-size-fits-all” policy that categorically bans transgender students from participating on sports teams consistent with their gender identity. “Such bans fail to account for differences among students across grade and education levels,” the Education Department said Thursday in a news release. “They also fail to account for different levels of competition — including no-cut teams that let all students participate

Washington - The Supreme Court on Thursday denied West Virginia's request to let it fully enforce a state law that bans transgender women and girls from participating on public school sports teams consistent with their gender identity. In an unsigned order, the court denied West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey's emergency request to let the state enforce the 2021 law. Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas dissented, saying they would have granted the request. Earlier this year, a lower federal court ordered the state to temporarily stop halt the ban against Becky Pepper-Jackson, a 12-year-old transgender girl who sued the state over the law shortly after its passage.

House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) escalated Republicans’ investigation into the Manhattan district attorney’s indictment of former President Donald Trump by subpoenaing a prosecutor on Thursday who resigned from the office last year over the district attorney’s initial reluctance to pursue Trump’s case. Jordan’s subpoena, reviewed by Breitbart News, directs Mark Pomerantz, who resigned from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office in February 2022, to appear before the committee for a deposition on April 20. In a cover letter accompanying the subpoena, Jordan said his committee had legislative reasons to demand Pomerantz’s testimony.
Gavin Newsom Gets the 'Welcome' He Deserves

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is quickly (and calculatingly) attempting to solidify himself as a top contender for the Democratic nomination for president in the event Joe Biden bows out, and he’s gone about it primarily by sniffing around in the backyards of the red states that many of his former constituents have fled to by hundreds of thousands. Most recently Newsom traveled to Florida, ostensibly on grounds to note his supposed concern about kids allegedly not being taught “real history” (read: woke history). But in reality, his visit was to try and tweak the state’s governor, Ron DeSantis, ahead of what is being widely speculated to be an announcement next month

Ever since the New York Attorney General’s indictment of Donald Trump was released (following a now-understandable attempt to keep it sealed) the media has been excitable over the former President facing charges, but gradually a welling tide in the press has been that this case is a mess. Make that, an utter disaster. Now we have the New York Times agreeing that this indictment is a fiasco, but it does so by delivering a telling caveat. The flaws in this are so obvious that many in the media have been grudgingly admitting so. I saw at The Atlantic, its assessment of the case was a litany of personal grievances about Trump,

The Justice Department acknowledged Thursday that it “inadvertently” withheld evidence from defense attorneys representing a former top FBI official who was involved in the Trump-Russia collusion investigation and is now charged with conspiring with Russia to violate U.S. sanctions. In a letter to Manhattan U.S. District Judge Jennifer Rearden, Justice Department prosecutor Damian Williams said his team mistakenly forgot to turn over four categories of evidence to ex-FBI official Charles McGonigal’s defense team during the discovery process. “In reviewing our files, the government identified certain items that were inadvertently omitted from the government’s prior productions,” Mr. Williams wrote. “The government expects to make a supplemental discovery production

Back in 2008, Don Lemon was co-anchoring CNN’s “Live From” weekday show with Kyra Phillips, a gig that he landed after he arrived at the network two years prior from local news in Chicago. For months, tensions between the pair kept mounting. On more than one occasion, a “Live From” producer and a newsroom supervisor had to pull Lemon off the air during a commercial break because of the anchor’s provocative antics, not unlike his recent declaration that the 51-year-old Nikki Haley isn’t a viable presidential candidate because she “isn’t in her prime.” Amid the charged atmosphere, sources say Lemon disrespected colleague Nancy Grace

If you read through the conservative internet today, you’ll see myriad articles and videos pointing out that Alvin Bragg’s Statement of Facts and Indictment against Donald Trump are utterly baseless. In a decent system, they would be tossed out of court immediately. However, I’m here to tell you that this is not how things work in progressive/leftist judicial systems. They like going through the motions, but the system always works toward a single leftist end, law and rules be damned. As I said, lots of lawyers have pointed out that Alvin Bragg’s indictment is so flawed that it should be thrown out on an immediate motion to dismiss.

Twitter has made it official, National Public Radio (NPR) is now classified as a "US state-affiliated media" outlet on the platform. It’s a label that has traditionally applied to state-run media outlets in foreign autocracies, like Russia’s RT and China’s Xinhua. Twitter CEO Elon Musk shared the company’s guidance on state-affiliated media Wednesday. "State-affiliated media is defined as outlets where the state exercises control over editorial content through financial resources, direct or indirect political pressures, and/or control over production and distribution," the Twitter policy read. "Seems accurate," Musk wrote, referring to NPR's new title.

Marvel Entertainment’s former chairman Isaac “Ike” Perlmutter said Wednesday he will hold on to his Disney shares, a week after reports of his termination from the role. Reuters reported last Wednesday that Disney had laid off the 80-year-old Perlmutter, Disney’s largest individual shareholder, as part of a cost-cutting campaign. Perlmutter, however, told the Wall Street Journal that he was fired for pushing Disney too aggressively to cut costs and running afoul of the creative executives whom newly returned CEO Robert Iger wanted to empower. Disney did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. News of Perlmutter’s termination had come after he supported activist shareholder Nelson Peltz’s unsuccessful bid
