So, how worried is Putin about a coup right now, and what might that drive him to do?
I doubt he is. From Taibbi…
Emphasis added.
I don’t know, there’s so much bullshit flying it’s hard to tell what the reality is.
Don’t believe anything from anyone on any side when it comes to this and that includes me. The propaganda is thicker than flies on a rib roast.
Not seeing it. Sorry, but the stated reasons for going into Ukraine were NATO expansion, abuse of Russians in Ukraine, denazification of Ukraine, that kind of thing. Parallels with the casus belli in Iraq escape me.
Yeah, I guess they’re similar, in that the Russians partly used a pre-emptive rationalization. But they are far from identical, and that’s just a part of Russia’s justification.
And it’s so laughable that you also have to wonder if Russia included that just to tweak the Americans.
Because the unstated goals in both cases were “you’ve been a thorn in my side for too long and fytw”
Well, that’s been the rationale for just about every invasion since the Romans.
Carthago delenda est!
Agreed, and I think the US’s misguided intentions in Iraq are a different animal than what Vlad is up to, but we had a policy objective and our stated reasons were not the full or most of the story of why we invaded.
I believe it is the lack of casus belli that is the basis of the comparison. Particularly when Rice is denouncing the Russians for doing what we did (or, with arguably even LESS justification).
Base-bolll has been not very good, to me.
Baseball has never been very good.
Baseball’s only good when my team wins.
So, once in a lifetime.
Same as it ever was.
You would not have been a happy Dayton Dragons fan for most of the last 20 years. ?⚾?
Fairweather fan. Not afraid to admit it.
Wagoneer!
Frontrunner apologist!
I nearly spit beer out! Shame on you!
Cricket is better.
I get what you mean about the White Sox. But I also feel that baseball has too many games every year.
I agree, but not in regular season.
They play enough to determine a champion in each league, then it can go straight to World Series.
With 15 teams in each, they can go back to 154 game schedule, as 11x 14 works exactly.
Except then there’s one team that has to be off every day.
Good?
No wait, I don’t really care about baseball anymore.
Okay, and?
That would require 11 off days, currently they have about twice that number. Scheduling would be slightly more difficult, but doable.
You can’t have teams play series, because the same team would have to be off multiple days in a row.
And if you don’t want that, then there’s a lot more travel involved.
Sure you can, you just have to stagger the series. I have played with it in the past, totally doable.
Same amount of travel, you just dont have a series ending on Sunday. Sometimes it does, sometimes Sunday is in the middle, sometimes you begin on Sunday.
Just like Mozart’s music has “too many notes”?
“Well… there it is.”

@Tulip, on the zoom a couple of weeks ago, when we were talking about movies, you re’d something to me I had remembered wanting to watch and now I can’t remember what it was. CTRL-F does not work on my brain. Had a female protagonist, I believe.
Also, the dub on Beforeigners is awful. Besides that, it’s like they didn’t even TRY to match their voices.

Extra link, but on-topic: Roscosmos director-general claims sanctions would threaten the ISS, including de-orbiting on the US or Europe. So much fun.

Shame about the Swiss ditching neutrality a while back – that and the Irish corporate tax rate seemed like excellent business draws, and screw the global financial cabal.
Or maybe I’m just in a bad mood. Hope everyone’s having a decent start to the week.
Nope. Found out my change request for tomorrow morning is royally screwed and trying to get it fixed. Not working so far.
So they are threatening an act of war in a direct attack on the US which would require a retaliatory response? Doesn’t seem like a very good plan.
Not exactly, they were just pointing out that without Russian aid the ISS would become unstable and could land on the US or Europe.

The subway story reminds me of how we’ve been told that poop was smeared on the walls of the Capitol during the “Insurrection”. Did that actually happen? Are there pictures of that? Or is this just another line of BS?
I always assumed it was Nancy Pelosi who smeared the shit on the Capitol walls.
No, that was just on the Constitution.
Someone should have kept her off of the poop deck, then.
“poop was smeared” … “another line of BS”
What you did there, it was observed.
The feds are trying to prove possession of a gun on the Capitol grounds based on essentially nothing. Funny thing is, the guy had a GoPro on – wonder if that is going to be prosecution or defense evidence.

Asked whether Switzerland, a major financial centre and commodities trading hub, would follow the EU in freezing Russian assets, he said: “It is very probable that the government will decide to do so tomorrow, but I cannot anticipate decisions not yet taken.”

One of these things is not like the other.
C’mon, we were neutral in WW2 before December 1941, in spite of the Lend-Lease Act, and freezing Japanese assets and starting an oil embargo!

Makes sense to me.
I would fight for New Order, but only if they make amends with Peter Hook.
Nah. I read his book. He’s an asshole.
I expect it would take someone with true faith, given the state of the nation. The subculture that’s into the new order lacks regret as they run the rest of us round & round.
But with the world in motion, there’s no confusion when they avoid fighting — they’d have to have shellshock to do so.

I saw some professor online calling for the Ukrainians to tie-up captured Russian soldiers and then hide them under debris in the streets so that the invading tanks will crush them. I don’t know what compels someone to go on the internets to advocate for war crimes in a country half way around, but it seems like the people least likely to serve overseas or have family serve overseas are the most bloodthirsty and psychopathetic right now. What a clown world
I wouldn’t want anyone to do that, because it would harm the person doing it as well. Good to see you apologist.

The Colonel I linked to in the old thread will probably never be seen again on Fox after throwing cold water all over their war boners.
Despite his twenty year old cockup, Macgregor has been the surprising voice of reason in the past few years on military adventurism.

So he “distanced himself” by continuing to work with them on other projects.
Is there really any doubt that he’d be in jail if not for his Daddy’s political connections?
Kinda like Bush twins getting away with shit…though Hunter’s activities are much much worse.
What did they get away with?
I think normal teenage shit that shouldn’t land anyone in jail but would have landed normies in jail. Fake IDs, alcohol, using secret service to get a boyfriend to the hospital cause of alcohol poisoning. Like I said, normal college teenaged stuff, but no one of us could get away with it.
Not sure what you’re talking about, I got away with it, lots of my friends and acquaintances did, too.
A DUI would get you arrested and a record (but not jail time for a first offense). And I knew somebody who got some jail time and then probation because he was legal age, and bought alcohol for a minor (under 18). But most minor offenses got a slap on the wrist, particularly if it was a first offense.
I dunno. We had all of that when I was in college, and nobody went to jail.
Sorry I was fast forwarding that to today’s times.
Fake ID and alcohol are things I got away with. Didn’t have the opportunity to take anyone to the hospital with alcohol poisoning.
I actually did. Well, I don’t think the guy had alcohol poisoning; he just got extremely drunk and broke his nose. I was supposed to take him back to his room, but he had gotten so drunk he lost his keys.
I did. No questions were asked. They don’t want to have kids hesitate to bring in a friend in trouble to avoid themselves getting into trouble.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10560183/Fencing-National-Guard-deployed-Bidens-address-tomorrow-truckers-convoy-heads-DC.html
Because they are soldiers not a theater troupe?
This is why their delay, albeit somewhat accelerated plans, to do this convey is a bad idea now. Biden has all the agencies and states reversing mask mandates and such that all they have to do now is claim the convoy is for overthrowing the government since there are no mandates to reverse.
Correct.
Hey Ron. I need a bunch of your guys to take time out of their day jobs to come up here and bivouac in a parking garage for a couple of weeks.
So, naturally, they’ve leaked the state of the union to the WP
Biden wanted to use the State of the Union for his agenda. Then Russia started a land war.
Original plan was to downplay the Ukraine and say life is going to be great if we spend, spend, spend.
Now it’s Ukraine is awful, but life is going to be great if we spend, spend, spend.

I’m really hoping that thing happens where Biden wanders off-script, he starts mumbling nonsense, and an army of terrified aides starts shouting “Okay! Okay! Thank you everyone! That’s it!” and ushers him off the stage. It’s happened several times in press conferences.
That would be glorious! “You’ve had the prerelease and it has been delivered to Congress” Thank you!
I wish they would go back to the old way of just delivering a letter to congress.
Well, if Biden dies mid-address we may just get that.

From Berenson:
“ Six weeks after becoming “fully vaccinated,” kids under 12 are 40 percent MORE likely to be infected Covid than those who never received mRNA shots, a huge New York state database shows.
The mRNA jabs provide some protection for the first two weeks of “full vaccination.” But it declines rapidly, turns negative by the fifth week, and more sharply negative in the sixth.”
Haha!
Potential Stadium Locations For The Washington Commies
I dare them to go with the Potomac Shores location. Farthest from DC at 30 miles down the parking lot known as I-95. Farthest from major highways putting much traffic on local streets. The only rail nearby is a commuter line that has a maximum capacity of ~1,000 every 15 minutes. It would be a CF.
What’s wrong with the current stadium?
Why stay at the current stadium if you can get taxpayers to pay for a new one?
Rebuild at RFK or don’t bother.
I prefer they stay in Maryland. That is as far from my wallet as I can expect.

Yes – even the cheering MSM hasn’t been able to spin this news to anything even vaguely promising. You’ll note they never mention how many healthy 5-11 years olds were hospitalized from COVID prior to vaccine eligibility.

Still wondering how the ‘he wants to kill all gays and queers’ propaganda took hold. I mean, by all accounts, he was quite the pioneer in that arena his whole life…unlike you know, Obama that switched stances when the political winds told him to.
He could have run as a Democrat and been hailed as the most gay-friendly president in history.
I don’t know that there is any claim, no matter how outlandish, that the MSM couldn’t push and not have the NPCs wholeheartedly buy into.
Obama that switched stances when the political winds told him to
This is precisely why Obama is “good”, and Trump is “bad”. Trump was pro-gay before it was politically acceptable. He remained that way after it was politically acceptable. He doesn’t do what he’s told, he does what he wants. So they will literally invent some new thing, which the Obamas of the world would never oppose out loud, just to get Trump to oppose it, and therefore make him reveal his badness. The politicians are not really supposed to be in charge of anything, least of all their own opinions.
Sure, Jan.

GIlmored again.
I’ve been watching Bald and Bankrupt’s and Johnny FD’s YouTube channels re: the Ukraine invasion, and they’re very interesting in a number of ways, not the least of which is that, even though they were basically walking and taking the train together for several days to get out of Kiev, their respective vlogs are quite different about the shared experience, with Baldy’s being a lot darker in some ways. This, to me, illuminates the power of video editing (for good or evil), and why we probably shouldn’t be paying attention to ANY of the legacy media right now. It’s too easy to bend the video presentation to a narrative.
