Why does Trump think Harris/walz is “radical”? lol like what about fucking Kamala Harris is “radical”?

I don't think tonight's the night but a few of these signs make me think we are getting very close. Sun now rising in Iran.

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir today said his party will send a letter to the United Nations calling for a probe into the "genocide" carried out by the Awami League government and forces on protesters "prior to the victory" on August 5.

Maybe he should take a good look in the mirror. 'Genocide' my ass, it was just regular state repression, he is devaluing the word. There is a whole Wiki article dedicated to military coups in Bangladesh.

Reports of clashes breaking out across the Euphrates river between SDF & "Iranian backed" militants after a buildup that occurred over the last few days. Town of Dhiban.

help my country lacks the means of production to engage in warfare and our military industry just bought a ~~munitions factory~~ engineering firm thousands of miles away in a country currently arguing to the UN that we are engaged in genocide, someone please help me budget for proxy wars in ukraine

PARIS – Germany’s Rheinmetall is boosting its plant-engineering business to meet growing demand for ammunition factories, with an agreement to buy a majority stake in the South African engineering firm Resonant Holdings for an undisclosed price.

Rheinmetall will own 51% of a new joint venture, with current Resonant shareholders holding the remainder, the defense company said in a statement late Friday. Resonant employs around 150 people and will add expertise in building chemical and explosives plants, with annual sales potential for the new company of more than €100 million (U.S. $109 million), Rheinmetall said.

edit: not a munitions factory, an engineering firm... made this post while some dicknose was shouting at me over the phone because I love my job

Venezuela's post-electoral tensions have also spilled beyond its borders, w/ the leftist Brazil+Colombia+Mexico governments allegedly assuming a mediation role. Lula's foreign policy strongman Celso Amorim said the delay in the publication of results is "regrettable" but that he doesn't trust the parallel tallies published by the opposition

In an interview with Globo, Celso Amorim, Chief Advisor to the Brazilian President on Foreign Relations, said "I don't trust the ballot information supplied by the Venezuelan opposition."

Supreme Court hearings continue this morning, with candidates and party representatives answering questions and submitting eventual evidence of the recent electoral process. It has declared a 15-day process.

Senegalese president proves to be neocolonial stooge:

SENEGALESE PAN-AFRICANISTS DEMAND FRENCH MILITARY EXPULSION

Senegalese organisers from dozens of Pan-African groups demanded that newly elected President Bassirou Diomaye Faye expel the French military from Senegalese soil.

A few days later, on 14 July, Diomaye Faye said to the media, ‘I do not think there is any need today, whoever the partner may be, to go in the direction of brutal ruptures.’ This is a significant blow for Pan-Africanists and Diomaye Faye’s young working-class base.

While there was initially much hope that the new president would join his revolutionary neighbours’ Alliance of Sahel States (AES) confederation, Diomaye Faye instead visited the conservative neo-colonial governments of Ivory Coast, Nigeria and Ghana to meet their presidents in his first few months in office. Then, the 44-year-old’s first visit outside the African continent occurred in Paris, where he met with French President Emmanuel Macron.

When Diomaye Faye finally made his way to Burkina Faso, he asked President Ibrahim Traoré to abandon the AES project and rejoin the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).

The organisations behind this recent memorandum addressed to Diomaye Faye include Urgences Panafricanistes (@urgences_panafricanistes), Africa First, Jif’Afrik (@jifafrik), La Ligue Panafricaine Umoja (@liguepanafricaineumoja), Sénégal Notre Priorité (@senegalnotrepriorite) and others.

I'm surprised that Walz got the nod. I really thought it was going to Shapiro to reassure AIPAC and the Israel lobby that Kamala wasn't got to rock the boat on that front (the same reason that Biden was picked in '08). It doesn't mean that she's changing anything about the Biden policy, I am sure some zionists are freaking out regardless.

Ukraine invaded Russia?

Russia Launches Anti-terrorist Measures in Three Regions Under Ukrainian Attack

These measures are enacted to protect citizens and prevent potential terrorist acts. On Saturday, the Russian National Anti-Terrorism Committee (NAC) initiated a counterterrorism operation (CTO) regime across the Belgorod, Bryansk, and Kursk regions in response to recent security threats.
