Biden Admits U.S. Military Running ‘Low’ on Munitions to Give Ukraine
QuotePresident Joe Biden during a recent interview admitted that the United States military was running low on ammunition for Ukraine.
This is a war relating to munitions. And they’re running out of that ammunition, and we’re low on it
controversial decision to send cluster bombs to Ukraine reveals exactly how threadbare those excess supplies are

Report: Ukraine Intelligence Coordinated with FBI to Censor Americans on Social Media
QuoteA new report from the House Judiciary Committee indicates that an effort against “Russian disinformation” on social media platforms, spearheaded by the FBI and Ukrainian intelligence officials, resulted in the censorship of Americans’ accounts. In one case, the FBI and Ukrainian intelligence effort flagged an account run by the U.S. State Department for censorship
that the reported accounts included “even a few accounts of American and Canadian journalists.”

Joe Biden Doesn’t Know What He Is Saying Anymore
QuoteJoe Biden made another crucial blunder this week, proclaiming on national television that the United States is low on a certain type of artillery ammunition.
Joe Biden wasn’t supposed to say the quiet part out loud: ‘We’ve run out of ammunition.’ But now that the cat’s out of the bag, one must ask whether continued support of Ukraine’s military is even feasible as the conflict rages on,” political commentator Ian Miles Cheong remarked.

Biden’s life expectancy — and its implications
QuoteHow likely is it that President Joe Biden would live to finish his second term if he were reelected?
Biden is 80 years old. He will turn 82 just a few weeks after the 2024 election, and would be 86 were he to finish a second term.
According to the Social Security Administration (SSA) “Cohort Life Expectancy” table, a male born in 1942 (Biden’s birth year) had a life expectancy at birth of 71.1 years.
For example, SSA estimates that a male born in 1942 who reached the age of 65 can, on average, expect to live another 12.8 years, which for Biden would take him to the age of 84 about the middle of his second term.

Apparently Zelensky (not the Auto parts King) wants WWIII
Zelensky slams Biden’s ‘unprecedented and absurd’ stance on NATO membership
QuoteUkrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tore into NATO leaders including President Biden on Tuesday for not extending NATO membership to his war-torn country slammed the reticence as “weakness” and “absurd” — just moments after Biden referred to the development of new non-public language under development for NATO ascension.
Biden "We’re determined to commit every inch of territory that is NATO territory,” Biden noted. “If the war is going on, then we’re all in war. We’re at war with Russia, if that were the case.”

Us cluster bombs deal is clear signal the war is not going well for Ukraine.
Even within US government circles, there has been deep unease about supplying its own stockpile of cluster munitions to Ukraine.

CDC gives guidance for trans people ‘chestfeeding’ kids, accused of failing to consider possible health risks
QuoteThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s official website published advice for trans and non-binary individuals on seeking guidance on how to “chestfeed” their infants.
Several doctors criticized the guidance, not simply because CDC has appeared to guide biological men in how to breastfeed children, but because they claimed the CDC has failed to gauge the risks posed to children drinking milk produced by chemicals used in gender-reassignment medical operations.
FDA’s warning that one of these drugs, domperidone, “can pass into breast milk in small amounts and can sometimes give babies an irregular heartbeat as a result.

Ukraine’s Allies Can’t Get Arms Fast Enough as Stockpiles Shrink
QuoteWith Russia’s war in Ukraine in its eighth month, some European nations that have funneled weapons to Kyiv are running low, and it could take years for defense contractors to meet the shortfall.
Kyiv’s allies have already sent in billions of dollars in arms, munitions and equipment since Russia invaded in February. That’s putting pressure on ammunition stockpiles, including 155 mm shells for artillery, some of the people said, of which the US has given Ukraine well over a million rounds since the start of the war.
Ukraine’s partners may be tempted to prune back support as they worry about their own security needs, potentially creating the types of fissures Putin is seeking to exploit alongside tensions over access to energy in Europe.

Biden to Send Cluster Munitions, Banned by 120+ Countries, to Ukraine
QuotePresident Joe Biden has approved sending U.S. cluster munitions to Ukraine, according to reports. The bombs are designed to explode in the air and release smaller submunitions over a large area. More than 120 countries have joined a convention banning the use of cluster munitions because of their high failure rates, leaving territories scattered with unexploded ordnance that can in turn pose a risk to civilians and friendly troops for decades after a conflict has ended.

Former U.S. officials have held secret Ukraine talks with prominent Russians
QuoteA group of former senior U.S. national security officials have held secret talks with prominent Russians believed to be close to the Kremlin — and, in at least one case, with the country’s top diplomat — with the aim of laying the groundwork for potential negotiations to end the war in Ukraine
On the agenda of the April meeting were some of the thorniest issues in the war in Ukraine, like the fate of Russian-held territory that Ukraine may never be able to liberate, and the search for an elusive diplomatic off-ramp that could be tolerable to both sides.

Many of the countries that are supporting Ukraine’s war efforts are struggling with high inflation, rising interest rates and sluggish growth. Their leaders – some of whom are facing elections in the next year and a half – need to justify the huge amount of resources they’ve poured into Ukraine when their own voters are struggling to make ends meet. That can become difficult if there isn’t much battlefield success to show for it.
According to an assessment by the Washington-based think tank Institute for the Study of War (ISW), some of the most strategic sections of the front line are guarded by multiple lines of defense, making it very difficult for the Ukrainians to break through.

QuoteIn the CNN interview, Mr. Zelensky made a familiar plea for even more advanced weapons, and for American-made F-16 fighter jets.
“In some directions we cannot even think of starting” the counteroffensive, he said, “as we don’t have the relevant weapons. And throwing our people to be killed by Russian long-range weapons would be simply inhumane.”

The Ukrainian Army Apparently Downgraded Its New 32nd Brigade, And Deployed It Somewhere Quiet
QuoteThe preparations included the formation of at least a couple dozen new brigades: at least nine of which Ukraine’s NATO allies would equip and train. As recently as this spring, the Ukrainians had planned out which brigades would get which Western weapons.
But the plan changed. For at least one brigade, The new 32nd Mechanized Brigade was supposed to ride in American-made armored trucks supported by some upgraded Czech tanks. But now it seems the brigade has ex-NATO M-113 armored personnel carriers and locally-made T-64 tanks.
32nd Brigade apparently has deployed to the front line just west of Svatove in eastern Ukraine’s Luhansk Oblast. It’s a relatively sleepy sector
It’s a curious disposition for a brigade that U.S. officials once listed alongside the best-equipped, best-trained new Ukrainian units.
