Transnistria appears to have vanished from google maps lol

Apparently there aren't actually any defensive lines beyond Avdiivka? Whoops.

West of Avdiivka, no significant defense line has been built for Ukrainian troops, and the Russian army continues to advance. This was announced by the editor-in-chief of Censor, Yuri Butusov, following his trip to this area.

"There are no words. Gap: here in Kiev, the supreme commander-in-chief says one thing, but at the front something completely different is happening. I want to say that no field lines of fortifications have been built beyond Avdiivka so far. I saw Russian drones attacking our soldiers in their burrows in the middle of a field, " Butusov said.

According to him, no conclusions are drawn from previous failures. "If the government can't find builders to build at least basic rear lines of defense, if they can't find engineers to maintain modern equipment, drones, sensors, communications, if they can't find workers and technologists to produce ammunition, then there will never be enough attack aircraft," the journalist added.

Even the NYT is admitting it:

Sparse, rudimentary trench lines populate the area west of Avdiivka that Ukraine is trying to defend, according to a Times review of imagery by Planet Labs, a commercial satellite company. These trench lines lack many of the additional fortifications that could help slow Russian tanks and help defend major roads and important terrain.

I'm not an expert on El Salvador by any means, but it seems kinda funny that Bukele's "solution" to gangs in the country is the same thing that caused the creation of those gangs in the first place: creating a huge prison system and throwing a bunch of people into it.

I'm sure that won't backfire at all in the future.

Putin confirmed that Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles had been used for the first time in Ukraine (RIA)

Russian President Vladimir Putin, during his address to the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, said that the Zircon complex had already been used in combat.

“Obviously, we are talking about the use of the latest hypersonic missiles for attacks on military targets of Ukraine. Surely these missiles were used within the framework of the air defense as part of the so-called combined strikes, which involve the use of various types of weapons in one strike with synchronization in time and place. That is this is a combination, for example, of Zircons, Calibers, Geran UAVs, and Kh-101 long-range air-launched cruise missiles,” Murakhovsky said. In his opinion, no more than two or three Zircons were used in one strike, because this stage of use is a test of the weapon system in real combat conditions.

“Most likely, combined strikes with the participation of Zircons were carried out against Ukrainian targets in areas most densely covered by layered air defense, including with the participation of Western Patriot-type systems, in order to confirm the capabilities of hypersonic missiles to overcome air defense. I think that in this regard there were targets have been selected for destruction in the Odessa or Kiev region,” Murakhovsky noted.

The specialist added that, judging by the lack of “media activity” on this matter from the enemy, the missiles were not shot down. He recalled that the Kinzhal hypersonic missiles had previously confirmed their effectiveness in overcoming the layered air defense of Ukraine, which includes Western-style air defense systems.

The Zircon missile was developed and produced at the Reutov NPO Mashinostroyenia (part of the Tactical Missiles Corporation). The missile has a range of 1000 kilometers and can reach a speed of Mach 9.

Better start believing in it. Scramjet hypersonic cruise missiles are real.

But a part of me wants Biden to win just to see what happens like how he continues to become a zombie on live TV every day. Like if now it's bad, imagine four more years lmao

A video shows what it’s like inside an IOF troop carrier after it was targeted by the Palestinian resistance using a Al-Yassin 105 Shell, resulting in deaths and injuries of the IOF tеrrorists. You can hear the sound of the carrier burning in the background (CW: Dead and Bloodied fascists)

Argentina's Foreign Minister, ancap Diana Mondino, remembers the passing of Akira Toriyama with this insane "how do you do fellow kids" post

"Now and Forever"

"SHRINK THE STATE

ELIMINATE TAXES

INCREASE FREEDOMS"

Yeah, that's EXACTLY what Goku would have wanted... Anarcho-Capitalism. She never even watched Dragon Ball lmfao, she's a 65 year old demon.

In other news, our ancap-in-chief gave a speech in his boyhood school, which is dangerously close to where I live. The school itself is a private one, made by the rich and only for the rich Anyway, he gave a speech to a bunch of kids, he spoke about Davos and how he "fought the Communists" there, he actually spoke alot about Communism and Socialism, saying how dangerous it is. To kids.

However, during his speech, one kid fainted. He actually showed some compassion and ordered his medics to assist the kid. The speech resumed, he continued to talk about the dangers of Communism when ANOTHER KID FAINTED, this one was directly next to him (It was caught on live TV even). Compassion was gone by this point, and he made a joke about the kid fainting, because reasons. Terrible aura, Chávez walked by and said he smells of sulfur.

A lot of the even progressive or nominally leftist streamers, podcasters, and other talking heads who are covering the lies about sexual violence on Oct 7 always include disclaimers like, "I'm not saying no sexual violence occurred, in fact I find it very likely it did, but no evidence has been produced...."

Find it very likely why? Because it was Palestinians? Because some of them were Hamas? Because any incident of mass violence is likely to include sexual violence? Because they were overwhelmingly young men? Because Israel said so? What? It strikes me as still buying heavily into "gotta condemn Hamas, no matter what" bullshit. Or am I missing something, other than the obvious racism?

CAIR calls for probe of Israeli flag at polling station

Is it possible that the increasingly flagrant warcrimes being committed by Israel is a sign that this war's really not going so well for them? They're taking their frustrations out on civilians who they know aren't able to fight back, just so they can feel like they're "powerful" and "winning."

There's a new Biden interview with some actually interesting moments.

The interviewer asks Biden about calling a person "an illegal" during his SOTU speech. Biden says that he now regrets using the word "illegal" and should have said undocumented person. Then Biden go on to say "we have to control the border", but also that he's different from Trump because Trump uses words like Vermin. Biden basically says that he's doing Trump's border policy but with Civility (TM).

The interviewer asks Biden about the hot mic footage after the speech, where Biden says "I told Bibi, and don't repeat this, 'You and I are about to have a come to Jesus meeting'." Biden says that Bibi has the right to protect Israel but that it's now Biden's view that Israel's actions are hurting Israel by making them look bad. Then Biden says that he's trying to get a ceasefire, 6-week ceasefire. The notable thing here is that the Democratic establishment is redefining what a ceasefire is. Ceasefire is meant to be an end of the war, not a 6-week pause.

The interviewer asks Biden about the "no red lines" policy on Israel. Biden says that he won't stop supplying weapons to Israel under any circumstance. Then he says "We can't have another 30,000 Palestinians dead". Biden says that he told Israel "Don't make the mistakes that America made with Bin Laden" Then he has a Freudian slip and says "But we shouldn't have gone into Ukraine". Biden winces. Then he says "I mean we shouldn't have gone into Iraq or Afghanistan."

The interviewers asks Biden about the port that Biden promised during the SOTU to build in Gaza for aid, saying that a port would take 60 days to build. The interviewer asks Biden what he will do to give aid to Gaza for the next 60 days. Biden talks about the air drops and acknowledges that several people were killed by the air drops falling on them.

The interviewer asks Biden about the Uncommitted primary voting campaign and says that many people have pledged to never vote for Biden because Biden actively armed a genocide. Biden says that the interviewer is lying and that people don't believe that. Biden says that people are upset and asking him to do something, but Biden says that he believes most people don't think that Israel is doing a genocide. Biden denies that Israel is doing genocide and he also denies that other people believe Israel is doing genocide.

Germany: Far-left group claims act of sabotage on Tesla - DW

I've been thinking about all of the articles about NATO troops possibly deploying in Ukraine and the whole will they won't they of it all. I think that this piece by Bhadrakumar got me to finally understand what NATO is planning. There will be bilateral troop deployments from some willing NATO countries and because they won't be in NATO territory they will not be able to trigger article five. I'm convinced that the Brandon regime will push for this in an absurd attempt to win reelection. Try to go full wartime president with it with non-US NATO troops fighting Russia. They will try flying close to the sun on this one.

I don't know what that looks like in practice exactly but I can see a rough shape. said that France will move after certain red lines are crossed. I could also see staggered announcements and entrance into the plan.

First, after Russia goes on the offensive, announce some ghoulish framework for helping Ukraine and how it will be conducted. Next, announce noncombat troop deployments as "advisors" and such from France and a few other countries. Then, after NATO troops die in combat (like they're supposed to), they can announce limited combat forces and work their way up the escalation ladder. This would be a slow buildup with countries entering the new "coalition of the willing" over a few months, but I can see it happening this way.

This could also all be bullshit to try to scare the Russians though. I think that I'm around 50-50 between the two options.

Biden referred to an immigrant as 'an illegal'. He flubs his words afterwards. I think from the video, he says "how many innocent people are killed by legals?". Like he was trying to make the claim that more people are killed by documented american citizens. He's out of breath when he talks. The newsweeks article interpreted what he said differently. It's very bad that he referred to a person as illegal.

A huge jobs massacre is looming in German industry. Hundreds of thousands of jobs, some of them highly skilled, are at stake. The main focus is on the gutting of jobs in the automotive and parts industry, where—not including repair shops, petrol stations, trade and sales—more than 800,000 people are employed. Depending on the source and forecast, more than half of these jobs are at risk.

However, the layoffs are not limited to the automotive sector. The chemical, steel, construction, household appliances and even the IT sector are also affected. In retail, in the health sector, where dozens of hospitals are threatened with bankruptcy, and in rail freight, tens of thousands of jobs are also at risk.

The job massacre ranges from the factories to administration and development centres. “Suddenly, mid-level executives and experienced engineers are also at risk of losing their jobs,” writes the Handelsblatt, which published an extensive article on the subject at the end of February under the headline “And out you are – The new wave of staff reductions.”

“Those in the current wave of dismissals don’t just wear overalls, but more often than not also a suit, lab coat or hoodie,” according to the Handelsblatt. Citing labour market experts, it warned against the illusion “that most of the affected employees can easily switch to other vacancies.” Even if this were the case, “then these new jobs are often paid significantly less than the traditional position in the large corporation.”

...

According to a survey by the Institute of the German Economy (IW), only five out of 47 industry associations expect an increase in the number of employees in 2024, and 23 industries expect a reduction, including such employment-intensive sectors as wholesale and retail, machine manufacture, trades and construction. Credit insurer Allianz Trade expects the number of insolvencies in Germany to rise to 20,260 in 2024. That is 5 per cent more than in the previous year.

Trump should get Joe worked up to the point one of them keels over dead on the spot.

Heads up, there's photos of a Palestinian boy who has starved to death floating around in Twitter. The expression "nothing but skin and bones" isn't just an expression.

It's long so I'll give you the jist of it. They are suggesting that Diana was killed by the royals because she was going to expose Jimmy Saville and the royal family, bringing down the monarchy.

It fits with Andrew, Charles and existing shit. It has strong potential as a theory, and people will be willing to believe it in the current climate particularly because nobody likes Charles.

A succdem city councillor in Copenhagen is investigating the possibility of renaming the street the Russian embassy is located on to Alexey Navalny Street. He explicitly states that the intent of the proposal is to annoy russia. If it turns out not to be "too expensive or troublesome" he will make a formal proposal to the city council.

In 2022 a similar proposal attempted to change the name to Ukraine Street. That proposal was voted down as the committee for street names is very reluctant to rename existing streets due to the inconvenience it causes to residents. They did however add a several Ukraine-themed names to the list they draw names for new developments from.

In Oslo a similar proposal was passed, renaming the intersection in front of the Russian embassy to Ukraine Square.

HELL FUCKING YEAH

Mondino alleges 'Cuban and Venezuelan moles' are in Argentina to destabilise government

Without presenting evidence, Argentina's foreign minister claims there are "specialist and highty skilled" Cuban and Venezuelan moles active in the country that are trying to destabilise President Javier Milei's government.

Argentina's Foreign Minister Diana Mondino said Thursday that there are undercover "Cuban and Venezuelan" spies active in the country that are trying to destabilise President Javier Milei's government. Speaking a day before President Milei is due to deliver his state-of-the-nation address to Congress, Mondino alleged during a television interview that foreign actors were trying to damage the government. Mondino claimed that “there are Cuban and Venezuelan moles in the country who specialise in destabilising governments."

“It’s already a proven fact, some of them journalists, they are highly skilled," the official told the TN news channel.

Without presenting evidence for her claims, Mondino said that "we have proven it in different ways," alleging that some of the alleged foreign actors were journalists. "The same thing happened in the riots from a few years ago in Chile, so they are obviously highly skilled," continued Mondino, Argentina's top diplomat. She said the goal of the rogue agents is to “make a fuss” to “get Milei out" of office.

They heard our calls for Freedom and answered. Blessed be the Cuban and Venezuelan Revolutionary Moles sacrificing everything for us.

“They are here to make a fuss, someone’s paying them to do it or stop doing it. The reward to oust Javier must be large,” she claimed.

The reward is a strong socialist Argentina. LETS FUCKING GOOO
