Do a simple search on NATO in twitter and see how much that platform has been taken over by propaganda bots and trolls. Pig smugglers abound

Polar launches are a thing for certain necessities. But, the mid latitudes are considered better for most stuff. I doubt Europe or the big companies (except for Spacex) goes back to using Baikanur anytime soon.

But, i'm happy to hear about how Russia emptied its jails and is using ancient tanks because its economy the size of Italy is so fierce.

Of course this is a bigger deal destroying the Russian navy would be child's play.

Now, you can sneer that its the Daily Mail. This is an awesome video. I see F-16s, F-18s, and Typhoons. Pretty mfing BAD ASS! Air Power for the win! I gather that's Italy, Spain and Romanian acft. And they are escorting the muther of global airpower.

You know if Russia were in a last ditch battle for survival I might think they could muster some amazing performance. Trying to be the baddies in another person's country -- at gunpoint -- next to felons. Yeah, I'm not seeing any improvement in Russian battlefield performance. Now, throw in the fact that their industrial base is a joke and they can't even pay to keep their vaunted space launch capability at Baikanur (Kazakhstan is foreclosing on stuff Russia has defaulted on at the space station there). Russia is screwed. Now, throw in the fact that the best or near best western gear is coming. It will have modern C4ISR systems not handheld motorola bricks but actual tactical communications gear. It will have depleted uranium shells. It will have Mirage 2000, F-16s, Patriots backing it up. Yeah, I'm liking Ukraine's chance of recapturing Crimea.

Dan Dickerson sounds really down after the lead change.

Nothing focuses the mind like...

This is interesting

Code Pink is not your friend

I actually do wish to travel to Kyiv once the war ends. i would like to visit Bucha and Babi Yar and maybe while in Poland Katyn Forrest.

Van Jones is merely demonstrating the cowardice of the Eastern Establishment

what was it? Some sort of Soros thing?

Nice.

Please spare me the watch out for open windows jokes.

nice

That does seem like weirdly shabby treatment.

This is sounding like the Monty Python Pirana brothers sketch.

I know how he behaved.

You know that's not something i really track or care about. Wonderful that you and a former mlive message board guy had arguments. He does seem pretty argumentative.

He is prolific.

this is the overwhelming overreach of the desperate MANDELA!?

Who used a bunch of Saudi and other offshore money to buy the loudest megaphone in the political system and who keeps steering bullshit agitprop into the feeds of anyone who mistakenly clicks on the "for you" button instead of "following"

Animal Control has been good and enjoyable. Former Washington Huskies football TE, Joel McHale clearly wanted to move back to Seattle area to do a show.
