White House directs officials to draft proposal to lift US sanctions on Russia
-
Well Russia was doing all this same stuff back the too so I'm not really wrong. They certainly aren't more peaceful these days.
-
Trump scammed his investors, loans and bankrupted his casinos. He is doing the same to US to enrich himself.
-
Sounds like thats the Ukrainian SSU's business, and no one elses.

I posted this on a Reddit thread, but we have become very dependent on certain technologies. The resistance is taking a while to get warmed up. One of the biggest issues is our communication channels used in the first administration have all been compromised. Twitter, Whatsapp, and Reddit are all being used against us. There may never be a hashtag protest again.
No one thinks this is normal or okay. But there is an air of fear that the secret police tech bros are listening.

In the Americas, United States, and Canada:
-Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States and Canada to fuel instability and separatism against neoliberal globalist Western hegemony, such as, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists" to create severe backlash against the rotten political state of affairs in the current present-day system of the United States and Canada. Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social, and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics".

Yeah it's kinda crazy that it basically just lived on in the hearts of Putin and his underlings. We moved on. He made it his mission. There's a lesson in there somewhere.
Also, he basically became the thing he hated to win. Killed us with capitalism. There's a story there.

5.56 effective range out of a 16" barrel is 500 yards. Trump was a mere 400 feet from Crooks.
"Brandon Webb, a former Navy SEAL and the former head instructor of the SEAL Sniper course, said a well-trained shooter could shoot very accurately with an AR-15 at the distance at which Crooks shot Trump, especially with a magnified optic such as an ACOG sight."
Dude missed. The weapon and projectile are more than capable of delivering an accurate and lethal hit at that distance.
TL: DR, Skill issue.

Doesn't work when the target is wearing discreet body armor, and the impact has to be instantly lethal. Trump isn't, going to bleed out (they pre-deploy emergency services to large events) Even a lung hit isn't going to kill fast enough. So center mass become "pretty much heart only".
Shooting for the head and neck is pretty much the only option in that scenario.

I've commissioned an art piece of Trump sucking Putins dick. Will share when it's done.
-
Crooks did keep shooting... He killed one person and hit a few others.
-
I meant Yanukovych ran away to hide in Russia at the first sign of trouble and Zelensky stayed in Ukraine even with bombs falling on Kyiv
-
So you're saying those who didn't vote love him? How does that make sense?
-
Fight Canada, help Russia. How in the hell are Republicans just watching this happen? Cowards and frauds, all of them.
-
That's certainly the trajectory Project 2025 wants to really drive home. That's not exactly a defense of Russia.
-
He came into power almost a decade after the Cold War ended, so I don’t get what you mean
-
Both Putin and Trump are 80s relics and so it matters little how much the wor[l]d has changed, the cold war facet applies to the blindly pro-russian stance of Trump.
Of all the stances to take, this one is insane. Almost every violent conflict has shades of gray, nuance rather than unambiguous good and bad. The Ukraine-Russia conflict is one of those supremely rare straightforward ones where Russia is just straight up the bad guys.

Because ultimately, those armed MAGA people's faces are just too delicious for the leopards to resist. There's already been discontent that they aren't seeing the improvements they wanted, and some of them directly getting screwed by Trump and Musk.
