Russia Invades Ukraine

[PerthDomer]

But did they put a flag in their profile picture? 1 Ukrainian flag profile pic = 1 dead Russian.

The Dutch also went all in on blocking their Lithography equipment from helping China make high end chips (they have close to a monopoly on lithography). The Dutch are redeeming themselves in my eyes. Austin Powers had the. All wrong.

In all seriousness, if China starts openly supporting Russia they'll have done what we never could. Get Western Europe entirely on our side vs. China. China relies on European Markets and high end European intermediate parts.

Mitt was right. China should be paying attention to the wests response to Russia.

Change to policy allows transgender Soldiers to serve openly

Transgender personnel and individuals with gender dysphoria who can meet the Army's standards for military service can now serve openly.

Transgender personnel in the United States military - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Transgenders are expressly allowed to serve as the gender they identify as….about 21.4% of the total transgender population in the US is estimated to have served in the military. Have you thanked a transgendered service person today?

Lol oof

Domestic abuse runs a lot higher in those of service families than nonservice families. Have you thanked a wife beating service man today? Yes I’m comparing the two because serviceman are all flawed in some way… we thank them for their service not their demographic or identity issues.

The economic isolation of China would be very different from that of Russia. It would also hurt a lot more and require some serious bravery in the elected ranks which I doubt is there. China has invested a lot here.

‘Something Was Badly Wrong’: When Washington Realized Russia Was Actually Invading Ukraine

A first-ever oral history of how top U.S. and Western officials saw the warning signs of a European land war, their frantic attempts to stop it — and the moment Putin actually crossed the border.

Good article on the war. Milley says 1200 to 1300 Russian soldiers are dying a day in their current offensive (drew parallel to Iwo Jima in casualty levels). It also shows how long the build up to the war lasted and everything we did to try and dissuade Russia

I guess I’m confused by your initial post as it comes out of left field to make an odd point. Your post I think is symbolic of the err in thinking by the left that just because someone has gender confusion the right thinks they bad in whole. I think the vast majority would thank any serviceman (or service person if you are offended) for serving this country. We have all types of people committing to service to the country and they should all be thanked… I’m not understanding your point. I assume you just needed to get your virtue signaling points or quota for the day.

You compared a transgender to a wife beater. That says a whole hell of a lot more about you than it it ever will me.

Well, this is the only time you'll get them to saying anything bad about the 40%.

The point is every service member is flawed, but we still thank each one of them. Stop being a virtue signaling ding dong. I think we know each other well enough to not play the game of pretending to get to know one another.

My point exactly against the idea that transgenders need to be stopped from being funded or whatever that meant. They aren’t funded. They are and have been a part of our society. Virtue signaling nah bruh I just don’t mind pointing out things as part of the discussion. I’m not going out of my way.

Bien’s team announced some more sanctions on the anniversary of the attack. Hunter’s business associate was able to stay off the list. Baturina and Hunter met and moved millions of dollars together, so why would she be on the list?

Toronto, Cack? What’s your thoughts on this Russian not being on the list?

I will say I've seen a noticeable shift in your views, it's been refreshing to see - progress!

Full disclosure. Owning businesses in a hot bed area for crime with no consequences for the criminals got me jaded. I probably still have a lot of the same views just not as entrenched and dug in with those views and less shoot first ask questions later sort of attitude. I sold or just liquidated everything and now just living much simpler.

Yelena Baturina, Russia’s richest woman, is declared a fugitive

A court in Russia has declared the country’s richest woman and former “first lady of Moscow” a fugitive over a case of alleged libel against her brother’s financial manager.Yelena Baturina, 56, who has an estimated fortune of £1.2 billion, settled in Britain almost a decade ago and has been a truste

www.thetimes.co.uk

It appears she's a fugitive from Russia and wanted by the state. We're sanctioning people involved in the war effort, not every Russian who's ever had money.

We've also let some Russian firms continue to operate because we want worldwide energy/food markets to function. Sanctions are a complicated process.

 

[drayer54]

She’s a loaded Russian elite. 3.5 Million makes things less complicated, I guess.

Ah yes, the first step of the infamous Toronto Vortex.

Posted a light hearted response because I know if I engage in anything you'll revert to "oh my god VoRtEX", some like to run when challenged and that's ok.

I simply said I don’t know about her and that presidents children who do business deals with foreign countries are not necessarily wrong or corrupt and provided two points of evidence to support that.

Exactly, it’s never a straight answer to an honest question.

It was a good effort to avoiding answering. You knew the intent of the question, but I’ll take the blame. I should have asked in a specific manner so you couldn’t answer without answering. Lol
