The most outrageous thing Hasan Piker did was a few weeks ago when he casually streamed the addresses of half of all Liberal influencers to his audience of vicious communist goons. Including the address of a friend of mine, who's a journalist working from the frontline in Ukraine.
Didn't he bring on a literal Houthi terrorist onto his stream and glaze him like the kid is fucking Jesus?

Russia is not entitled to a sphere of influence. Russia is not destined to win in Ukraine. Negotiations are not pathways to peace but tools of war. Russia is not powerful – we are - By @johnsipher.bsky.social tomorrowsaffairs.com/putins-lies-...

Putin’s Lies Hide Weakness
Russia has thrived on lies for centuries; its undoing will come when truth proves more powerful than the fictions it desperately spins

Even if this war ends with Russia still occupying territory in Ukraine, that territory, together with the illegitimate gangster regimes of Belarus and Georgia, will be the furthest extent of a sphere of influence that Russia will have. Russian Imperial ambitions reached their limit.

Moscow thinks it can keep its war going.
We are making sure it pays the price for it.

Today, we present our 19th sanctions package. Every sanction reduces the Kremlin’s ability to wage war.

We won’t stop putting pressure on Russia until it ends its war.

Hungary has reached the tipping point the U.S has yet to reach. With public infrastructure falling apart, rising cost of living, and the people in charge flaunting enormous wealth, nobody gives a damn about culture war issues any more. It took Hungary over 10 years to get there.

Because trans school teachers are not the reason a 3-hour train trip now takes 7 hours in Hungary because the trains keep breaking down.
Wait seriously? How do the Orban supporters defend him if they can't bitch about trans school teachers?

Putin and Gerasimov still believe Russia can grind down Ukraine through a war of attrition.

But ISW says victory is far from "inevitable."

Russian top brass believes they can win war of attrition against Ukraine — yet ISW says Russia’s victory “not inevitable”
Putin and Gerasimov continue to promote the idea that Russia's slow advances will ultimately force Ukraine’s collapse.

I know. But you have to keep in mind, that scrambling the aircraft to intercept and identity an aircraft that violates your airspace takes time. In 2022 Mig-31s violated Finish airspace, Finland sent its hornets to intercept, but the Mig-31s were too fast and got away.
12 minutes. They spent in EU airspace 12 minutes.
The Turkey incident was only 15 seconds or so.
There is no excuse.

Mig-31s were built for this kind of stuff. Mig-31 is a further development of the Mig-25. They are meant to be incredibly fast. Initially to quickly intercept U.S spy planes. But because they were so fast and therefore hard to catch, they ironically ended up being used for reconnaissance and spying.

Technically, a Patriot system should be able to take down a Mig-31 even at its maximum speed of Mach 3 and maximum altitude of 20 kilometres. But, our operating procedure is that we have to identify an aircraft, and tell it to leave, first.
i suppose i am talking from ignorance, but don't we have any surface to air missiles for this kind of job?

If this goes hot, then it won't be through an open direct attack. The Russians will try something subversive. The fake car bombings they did in February 2022 or the little Green men of 2014. They will do something like that, or at least try to do it.

Keep in mind that Russia has a deepening fuel crisis. They might be pulling these stunts thinking they will intimidate us into telling Ukraine to back off.

It's so funny watching American leftists now have pointless conversations about the meaning of being a dissident and who is or isn't a dissident. No wonder these people lost.

btw, Václav Havel hated the word dissident. Most "dissidents" of the Eastern block did. It's what Western politicians and journalists called them. They didn't like it, because it implied they were a minority dissenting from a majority consensus, when in reality they represented an oppressed majority

This a Russian warplane falling down after being shot down after breaching Turkey air space for 17 seconds and after it was ‘warned 10 times over the space of 5 min via an "emergency" channel and asked to change direction’ Turkey officials said then back in 2015.

Just saying.
