On 4/22/2024 at 9:15 PM, gearhog said: I'd think by now people would understand the playbook. It's just routine now. 1. Find a crisis and exacerbate it. If one doesn't exist, create it. 2. Full-court press on the propaganda front to appeal to public fear and garner support. 3. Transfer hundreds of billions of dollars from the public sector to the private sector. It's like taking candy from a baby and everyone's falling for it. Every. Single. Time. Let's just admit we're completely lost in apathy and gullibility. Edited February 2 by gearhog 1 1

uhhello Posted February 4 Posted February 4 I understand why there hasn't been any media coverage on that statement but why hasn't the Trump office made any waves on it? Maybe I missed it but thats a pretty giant admission to make on the record on video and there hasn't been any coverage or pushback that I've seen.

I speculate that this could be one of, if not the, most complex corruption hairballs he's having to deal with. There are so many subplots to this story: USAID funding of the Maidan protests, Victoria Nuland, Biden, Burisma, Biolabs, Nordstream, Pentagon accounting errors, missing funds, theft of military aid, embezzlement, etc. It's going to take a while to ascertain the scope and scale of the fraud and deception. Even then, if it were all to be untangled and exposed, the implications it may have on the economy, foreign relations, global power balance could even give Trump pause for thought. 1
gearhog Posted February 4 Posted February 4 (edited) Here is why I mentioned USAID and why it is relevant to Ukraine: - The Ukraine Crisis Media Center was founded in 2014 around the time of Maidan protests. It's an NGO that receives money from other foreign NGOs and governments to advance the interests of other nations in Ukraine, against Russia. - Who is the biggest contributor to UCMC? USAID April 2019, Zelensky ran for President promising to fight and expose corruption in the Ukrainian government. May 2019, the UCMC (the donors above), obviously worried that Zelensky might not be 100% on "Team NeoCon" releases a statement that says "As civil society activists, we present a list of “red lines not to be crossed”. Should the President cross these red lines, such actions will inevitably lead to political instability in our country and the deterioration of international relations:" USAID, The Embassy, go on to list in detail all the demands of policies and positions Zelensky must implement, or.... "If the President crosses these red lines, it will indicate that he does not seek real democratic change and does not wish to establish a more honest and responsible government, even though he promised to do so during the election period." An obvious threat to Zelensky. It's all here: https://uacrisis.org/en/71966-joint-appeal-of-civil-society-representatives Check out the list of NGOs who signed it, all of which who are funneling (laundering) money. in 2021, the "leak" of the Pandora Papers showed Zelensky had funded his campaign in part, and continued to receive funds from his off-shore oil company businesses he had established previous to his election. Leverage. Later in 2022, Putin invaded, and Zelensky is pressured to advance the demands and interests of these "Non-Governmental" Organizations. The developments with USAID this week are the tip of the iceberg. Hundreds of Billions of your US dollars are unaccounted for and it's going to take a little while to find it. NGOs are receiving this money and using this money in a way that circumvents the normal US government accounting and audit processes. They don't want you to know how it's being spent. But... It's hard to hide money from a US government administration that wants to find it. Edited February 4 by gearhog 1 1

BashiChuni Posted February 4 Posted February 4 "New Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday that President-elect Donald Trump is “being really dumb” by taking on the intelligence community and its assessments on Russia’s cyber activities. “Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. “So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this.” -Jan 2017 never forget when a sitting US Senator openly said the quiet part out loud. then look at what trump went thru for the next 8 years. He's definitely right over the target. 2
Blue Posted February 4 Posted February 4 So it turns out the CIA and larger US intelligence community was heavily involved in the Maidan Uprising and subsequent regime change in Ukraine. I'm losing count - how many "Conspiracy Theories" of the last ~10 years have subsequently proven to be fact?

Russian soldiers received drone headsets that exploded when switched on, Russian media reported. The state news agency TASS said the sabotaged headsets were supplied via humanitarian aid. 1

I don’t know about “ coolest,” but it was sure an impressive way to die! I was talking with a friend of mine yesterday about CAS. He was a snake eater in Nam. He said they'd periodically call in air strikes from BUFFs. He said the bombs would go off everywhere, sometimes he had to hold onto a tree to help with the shock waves. He laughed when I told him that nowadays, dudes can putt a bomb into someone's butthole from 30,000 feet. Edited February 12 by Biff_T Words are hard

M2 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 New Shots Of Ukrainian F-16s Shine Light On Combat Missions Ukrainian Air Force F-16AM Fighting Falcon returning from a combat air patrol, having expended one of its AIM-120C-series AMRAAM missiles. Appears to be the first confirmation that Ukrainian Falcons are sporting the more advanced and longer-ranged C-series AMRAAMS. A Ukrainian F-16 pilot wearing JHMCS. Plus a video of a Ukrainian F-16 sporting a full loadout of US-supplied GBU-39 SDB glide bombs... 2
