  1. This seems way too optimistic
  2. So, the atrocities and the war crimes....
  3. The Fairfax GOP was once a gentle group of fine folk Then the loonies took over and...well, you know
  4. colleague here in Northern VA says that while walking by the parking lot of a Mclean Little League field (Mclean is one of the gold-plated suburb where a lot of the DC types have their suburban abodes), that he watched Tom Cotton yelling at his 7 or 8 yr old son about lack of effort on the baseball field "Great Santini-style." My daughter's team plays a softball team on Saturday from Mclean. I wonder if we will see other congress people with that team as it rides up in its Bugatti team bus.
  5. very enjoyable
  6. For those who think the War in Ukraine distracts from the true threat from China
  7. And the shit birds who are paid by Moscow to spread their shit...spread more shit Those are the enemies of peace and friends of Putin right there.
  8. I'm in favor of this, if true Reports are going to lag. Propaganda is out there indicating all sorts of big sweeping things that isn't necessarily so. The most dangerous thing is people hearing some good news like this and then asking: "who will be in charge in Russia after the Ukrainians win?" That's like asking after the 1969 moon landings what life on Mars will be like.
  9. Meanwhile, Just ok... I mean I recognize the type. The sort of people who rub elbows with dictators because they got caught with kiddie porn (Scott Ritter) or got fired by a black dude for being a lunatic (Mike Flynn).
  10. I don't think their dog crap candidates are going to get any better.
  11. Reminds that sometimes silence is speaking.
  12. Ukraine twitter today is all about the attack on the electrical grid by Russia
  13. this is fantastic. just wonderful stuff
  14. Lots of Russian trolls out today to sell that Russia is winning this. Um, ok.
  15. This is what having strong alliances is like.
  16. Had an interesting discussion with co-workers who were non-Anglophile yesterday about how annoying this all was. None of these people had much appreciation for history. I took a very passive approach. You can't talk to some people about topics which they have only a blunt appreciation.
  17. The Rule of Law matters. That's why we punish as well as we can a My Lai or the guys that Trump pardoned in the Navy SEALs. Its not perfect but part of the product is the effort and the journey. People who actually have discernment need to see that it matters.
  18. The rumored third column of Ukraine's armor? Lets hope they kick some ass!
  19. Thread Not everything can be explained by our current systems analysis.
  20. She survived the attempt to murder her by Trump campaign officials. So there is that.
  21. Technology has really empowered the open source researcher. NASA FIRMS is really interesting. You see where strikes have occurred that haven't been reported otherwise. Some things going on that look very good for Ukraine.
  22. as well and to augment your point. The Baltic and other NATO allies are also answering the bell with the distinct exception of Germany which was completely tainted by Putin's operatives being in control of the governing party.
  23. Cade probably better than what he's shown but, damn... The kid who can put us back in the playoffs was on the field last night and his name is JJ.
  24. You have to go with JJ based on tonight. Wow.
