Did read that FDR devalued USD vs gold to 70% at one time in an effort to help ppl. But still think it was different bc ppl didn't have money at all vs had money that wasn't worth much
more like an F-16. It's a capable air craft. You would think that column is pretty well covered with SAMs / AAA so idk about throwing your best fighters at it. Most important thing for Ukraine's air force right now is covering their supply lines through western Ukraine. At least according to my opinion.
Its very cool their national referendum took less than a couple hours to totally count. No funny business at all

Mig 29 was historically a fighter, they may have created a version over the years for all purpose use, like the -E variant of the F15.
yeah it’s nerve racking the other possibility is not much happens till after the Monday meeting if it happens
One of their drones took out a Buk and it seemed like it hovered right over it for like 30 seconds before shooting. I'm not sure about AA.
Right and he proposed a way to do it so they wouldn’t know it was the US. I’m sure he shares that concern
I could see it if Russia uses a nuclear weapon or bombs a nuclear power plant leading to a meltdown. Other than that, I pray to my atheist god that NATO doesn't do something daft and start shooting down Russian planes. That's WW3 and we do not want WW3.
Russia probably will cancel it once they realize its not going to calm the markets like they were hoping
Of course. It also puts us in the brink of global annihilation. Wonder if China will continue to hope for both sides to seek a peaceful solution.
that shocked me. Those Turkish drones have been shot down by Armenians, Kurds and Libyan militias. It's a good drone, but it's not stealthy or anything.
this was taken way out of context. the reporter was highlighting the double standard as to why these refugees are accepted but Syrians weren’t
I blame the MSM for leading me to believe that Putin was the Petyr Baelish of geopolitics just because he created a bunch of bots that manipulated a bunch of suburban soccer moms and was able to compromise DJT, a fucking baboon with a double digit IQ.
Trump was Putin’s favorite reality star, not zelensky. Damn it had we only known better this could’ve been avoided!
i said this the other day. Putin using a nuke doesnt mean dropping a bomb on a European capital or slinging icbms over to the US. He could be crazy enough to use a tactical nuke on like a radar station or something just to show he will do it and call our bluff that we won’t retaliate in order to get his positioning back after this disaster and get what he wants in territory Slim chance, but if it happens that is how I think it goes
Thanks for the context but I don't think it makes it that much better? Unless she was admonishing it which it didn't sound like she was. But you're right hard to make a judgement on 10 second clip Edit here is a longer clip
If Vlad nukes Kyiv Moscow gets erased, right? That seems like a stretch. Or if a nuke hits the air do we/Nato intercept it and get dragged in?
Not really, just got off a phone with a relative in China talking about what's been reported over there, so far the news in China is basically just "reporting the developments" with no sign of any outright condemnation. They've gotten their talking points from Beijing to just stay off the radar basically.
To be fair those bots completely fucked the US up. I guess breaking chud brains isn't actually all that impressive in retrospect
My buddy and I were just talking about this. If he decides to go nuclear, he would definitely start with a tactical nuke, the question in my mind is does he do it on a military target or a city.
This was so absurd I was looking for tweets 2-6 where they compared it to 9/11 or something then it hit me what he was doing
