Senator Lindsey Graham (U-DC) is trying to get the Libyan band back together as part of the effort to escalate a NATO war against Russia. In the latest development, according to the U.S. version of events, Russia took down a Reaper drone over the Black Sea:
The MQ-9 Reaper drone was making a routine flight before it was intercepted by two Russian Su-27 fighter jets on Tuesday. The warplanes dumped jet fuel on the drone and flew in front of it in a “reckless, environmentally unsound and unprofessional manner,” according to a statement from U.S. European Command.
One of the Russian aircraft then struck the drone’s propeller, rendering it unflyable and prompting U.S. operators to ditch it in the Black Sea. (link)
The Russian version of events outlines something akin to Russian pilots throwing a Pepsi at it. As relayed by Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov:
[…] “I explained the position of the Russian Federation,” Antonov said. “I stressed that the American UAV that was moving deliberately and provocatively towards the Russian territory with its transponders turned off violated the boundaries of the temporary airspace regime established for the special military operation, which was communicated to all concerned users of international airspace in accordance with international norms.”
“At the same time,” he added, “the Russian fighters scrambled to identify the intruder did not use on-board weapons or come into contact with the UAV.”
“The unacceptable actions of the United States military in the close proximity to our borders are cause for concern,” Antonov said. “We are well aware of the missions such reconnaissance and strike drones are used for.” […] “What do they do thousands of miles away from the United States? The answer is obvious – they gather intelligence which is later used by the Kiev regime to attack our armed forces and territory,” Antonov said.
[…] “Let us ask a rhetorical question: if, for example, a Russian strike drone appeared near New York or San Francisco, how would the US Air Force and Navy react? I am quite confident that the US military would act in an uncompromising way and would not allow its airspace or territorial waters to be breached,” Antonov said. “We proceed from the fact that the United States will refrain from further speculations in the media landscape and stop making sorties near the Russian borders,” he added. (link)
The United States govt/military justified their operation near the Russian border by saying we patrol everywhere in the globe doing these surveillance missions, so the Russians just need to stop being so sensitive:
[…] U.S. Air Forces in Europe – Air Forces Africa routinely fly aircraft throughout Europe over sovereign territory and throughout international airspace in coordination with applicable host nation and international laws. In order to bolster collective European defense and security, these missions support Allied, partner, and U.S. national objectives. (link)
And, of course, Senator Lindsey Graham demands an immediate U.S. declaration of war against Russia:
More “nation building” via the corrupt US political dragon… Don’t they know many of us don’t believe a word they spout.? Totally lacking in credibility
I really don’t give a shit. Phony War, Phony Press.
Yeah sure.
Maybe as far as this particular story goes, it is easy to ignore.
But the underlying insane aggressiveness and arrogant assumptions of the USA’s “right” of global “peacekeeping” control (while they spark various color revolutions with impunity) that runs.throughout FAR too many of our military brass, Intel Community, defense contractor leadership, and warmongering political buffoons in Congress and other federal agencies poses an existential risk to ALL of our lives.
Kind of like the “aggressiveness and arrogant assumptions of the USA’s “right”” to demand and determine fair elections in third world nations by inking a finger when someone voted?
And all these jack wagons said PDJT was engaging in nuclear brinkmanship with regard to North Korea.
REMEMBER – ANY accusations made against President Trump or pro-MAGA voters is almost always 180 degrees OPPOSITE of what we are actually doing and EXACTLY what the Left are doing.
It is a tactic called “psychological PROJECTION” that is frequently and repeatedly used by the accusers – reflecting what THEY are actually guilty of doing but then trying to deflect attention away from their own crimes by falsely accusing Deplorables and/or PDJT of doing the same.
Radio/podcast host Dan Bongino has been nicknaming the Left’s false accusations (projection) as their “Dipsy Do Fliparoo” tactic.
I remember feeling that if Hillary won she would be starting a war over N Korea. Trump magnificently showed how to deal with it. Two years of FJB and look where we are…
Yep, we need to give these idiots a day job.
How about breaking rocks while chained together with leg irons, or making license plates inside a penitentiary?
Can they do that from the other side of the grass?
No, but rocks need to be broken, and license plates need to be made, so….. 😁
Don’t forget phony president
Quick, start shooting down Russians, or Russia will commit war against us! And with that, Lindsey surpasses ‘Guam will capsize’ Hank Johnson for stupidity.
And is that all Hannity can do? Drum us to war over nonsense, or tick tocks, or some such garbage?
Who is Hannity? /sarc
But was it?
Who knows what to believe? With all the lies and propaganda spewing from our woke leaders and compliant press – truth’s critical mass most likely lies toward the Russian explanation.
We’ve concluded that before the shooting even started.
World War Reddit is led by virtue signaling fools and liars.
Reddit is run by China.
“Let us ask a rhetorical question: if, for example, a Russian strike drone appeared near New York or San Francisco, how would the US Air Force and Navy react? I am quite confident that the US military would act in an uncompromising way and would not allow its airspace or territorial waters to be breached,” Antonov said. “We proceed from the fact that the United States will refrain from further speculations in the media landscape and stop making sorties near the Russian borders,” he added.
Antonov baby… What a missed opportunity. This was the perfect chance to mock this illegitimate regime’s reaction to the Chinese spy balloons and point out how serious Russia is about territorial integrity.
I nominate you Russian propaganda minister, comrade! Da? Da! Now stop typing from your Macedonian bot Farm!
hahahahahaha … I amuse myself at the expense of HER and all the LGBTQueers running our State Dept. and military.
or operating in the gulf of mexico
Let em have SF.
And why does he always appear on Fox , let him go to OTHER cable shows -I hope Anybody STILL watching Fox isn’t buying his worn out and stale but dangerous stupid act
Why does he appear on Fox? About the Ukraine war? Because he represents the LGBTQueer struggle against Putin’s traditional values of man-woman, husband-wife.
I know right?!
That was spew worthy inanity.
IT IS SURE BETTER THAN WAR. Inanity is how you keep this from blowing up.
Spouting environmental virtue signalling is an effort to avert war?
It’s weak ass stupidity.
They embarrass us.

Can Trump Replace the Vichy Republican Party and Reclaim the American Democratic Impulse?
The only person in America that can make that happen is Trump.
Note to readers: This article is the introduction of a much longer article available on Substack. http://www.civildissolution.substack.com
The other sections of the longer article include:
Section 1. The Logic of Hate of the Anti-Trump Lincoln Project Republicans.
Section 2. Trump, The Man and MAGA, the Political Movement.
Section 3. The Restoration of Ruling Class Republicanism.
Section 4. The New Populist Fusion of a Working/Middle Class Conservative Political Party.
Conclusion: Trump’s 4 Year Window of Opportunity to Replace the Crony Capitalist Vichy Republican Party.
The entire archive of books about national divorce and civil dissolution, written by Laurie Thomas Vass, is available for purchase at http://www.gabbypress,com
Introduction.
We begin our argument that deep state agents, the crony corporate lobbyists of the military-industrial complex and PR firms constitute the authentic Republican Party of crony corporate capitalists and global central bankers.
In other words, we deny that there is some shadow imaginary, conservative version of Republicans, who are in competition with the so-called RINO wing of the Party.
There is only one institutional Republican Party, and that is the RINO Republicans, who represent what Angelo Codevilla describes as America’s ruling class.
We argue that Trump is the only person in America that can replace the crony capitalist Republican Party with a new national political movement that represents the interests of working and middle class citizens.
We place our analysis of the anti-Trump Lincoln Project into the bigger analytical framework of 5 distinct American social classes, defined by their source of income and their political ideology.
MAGA Baby!
SC needs to find Graham’s replacement already. I was already sick of him a few years ago. Also, to hell with Fox News. They’re beating the war drums just as much as the traitorous politicians are. Let them give their own money to the Ukraine and send their own children to die in Europe.
Never! The same process that is rigged against Trump , is rigged in favor of Lindsay and his friends on both sides of the aisle.
That is why they never investigate it, they are in on it.
With all due respect, Workingman PHD, there is a glaring misspelling
in your excellent commentary. Proper spelling is, “Faux news.”
SC has open Primaries. The Democrat-marxists vote for the Fairy if she has a conservative/MAGA opponent like last time. It is designed to be rigged
Along with other stalwarts from South Carolina like Trey roster, nikki, tim scott, and nancy mace……What is going on with South Carolina?
What the heck are you babbling about?
The Nordstream Pipeline was in INTERNATIONAL WATERS too!
The missile came from where? Say another U.S. Drone, or was it just guided to the Russian ship by the Drone.
Another Russian Warship Is Burning In The Black Sea
A Russian frigate is on fire in the Black Sea after being hit by Ukrainian missiles, according to Ukrainian media. The ship is reportedly a frigate-sized vessel, possibly the Admiral Makarov , one of Russia’s newest and most advanced frigates.
The ship is reportedly a frigate-sized vessel, possibly the Admiral Makarov, one of Russia’s newest and most advanced frigates. The 4,000-ton vessel is one of the largest warships in Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, which is a key part of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

This is terrible – so if OUR Reaper drone was involved in causing thus, couldn’t it have been prorammed to self-destruct OR have another US drone hit it OR get hit by a Ukrainian missile OR maybe not even destroyed?
Lindsey The Light Hearted can lead the charge by rounding up the 6 million military age males that he helped allow to invade our nation and press them into service. White kids have shed enough blood over the last 100 years protecting the interests of the Bankster Fruadster Bolsheviks. White young people need to stay home and make babies and replenish the White Race. Mother F everyone else.
“Bankster Fraudster Bolsheviks”
Adam Schiff has a direct ancestor Wall St. bankster who helped fund the original bolsheviks. There has always been an overlap between international financialism and international communism. They all want to rule the world and make everyone else their slaves; they just differ on how to go about it.
….and he-SCHIFF- financed Trotsky-Lev Davidovich Bronstein-….his dream establish one world godless government and to doing so with permanent revolution around the world ( today’ color revolutions?…if Stalin did one good thing his NKVD visit him in the MEXICO ……….
Lindsey could lead our top secret new strikeforce……a d division of transvestites
armed with magic wands and fairy dust wearing “Rainbow” uniforms and Gucci sandals.
Lighthearted? More like light in the loafers
You lost me when we went to Hannity. I hate that guy I can’t stand him. Having said that we’ve got to get rid of these sort of politicians or we’re in trouble.
What do you mean lost you?
We have to keep tabs on the weasels you know.
Not like we are praising his NookieLeer fantasies.
Remember! Our government insisted our war against Russia, err defense of Ukraine was really a “narrative” about Western values. You know … the “values” of climate-suicide and Drag Queen story hour.
The Rainbow flag of Vanguard, Blackrock, Rothschilds, and Goldman Sachs (& many, many others transnational corps) will never fly over the Kremlin. It is to our shame and our ruin that it flies over Washington DC.
Aptly stated Horace. Sadly, the “shame” of that fact affects only we Patriots. The communist posers, those traitors who planted that abominable flag in OUR Capitol, are incapable of shame. That would require speaking truth and walking in His light. Thanks
Shut up, Lindsey. Don’t you have a plantation to tend to or something? Retire already.👿
Hannity is a media whore for the deep state, he has Lindsey Graham on his show on a regular basis. Hannity isn’t worth watching unless you want to watch MSM propaganda.
They must really have some bad blackmailing material on old Lindsey
Uh…what? The current administration of idiots provoked this thing by daring Putin to do something that he said years ago that he would do. Putin is an asshat, but we induced this and could have easily avoided this.
OBTW, avoiding this kind of stupidity is exactly what Trump says he is about. Has nothing to do with US world power. We’re killing that economically, just like the rest of the world’s dominant nations have.
Nice deflection, little Lindsey, from the banking sectors in the world imploding…start a war….yeah right! /s
people too long in government develop a kind of delusion about themselves.
People compromised by ugly proclivities well documented by the Derp State do as they are told.
Whenever I read or am told something … the very FIRST analytical process in my brain asks “does this have the ring of truth to it?” … and the story of a Russian supersonic jet brushing against (striking) … only … the propeller of our drone sounds totally implausible.
So I ask WHY? would Bidinh’s liars come up with THAT lie of a story? Did they not want to admit how the Russians ACTUALLY forced down our drone revealing potential vulnerabilities of the platform? That sounds far more logical to my brain than a supersonic jet “striking the propeller” in a drive-by accident.

Stay tuned for the next episode of dancing soldiers…
The propeller is on the aft end of the aircraft and it would be a small matter to nose into it enough to mess it up.
Would make for some work on the ground, might have to replace a radome and some instrumentation, but worth the cost I’m sure.
Frankly, if I was working on ways to take out these assets I’d be developing a system that flings bolas to entangle the prop, but I’d never mention such possibilities on a publicly accessible website…
Funny you would say that … because this video appears to show something similar being deployed …
Clever Russkies readsing my mind?
The thing no one is mentioning that the attack drone was gathering intel and targeting info for Ukraine to kill Russians.
Why would anyone expect Russia to allow this just 35 miles from it’s border?
Which expert told you that?
Yep, I was right there as he was wailing about dead bodies floating outside the Ritz-Carlton in Norlens.
Same fraud, different hoax
Did you say hoax?

Seems our adversaries don’t know how to “fly safe”. Right?
https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/29/politics/chinese-fighter-jet-intercepts-us-reconnaissance-aircraft/index.html
I can’t recall a single General or Fighter pilot in WWII ever accuse a Zero pilot of flying … unsafe. That was when our military understood their MISSION was to kill people and break things. Period. And we sure as hell weren’t flying Rainbow Flags … just a rainbow of battle ribbons.
Diversity hires. 🤨
Perversity is our stench.
Fear us!
Incompetent, dangerous, US Senators cry like little babies because the Russians took a pi&& on a drone. But Sen Lindsey Graham has NO PROBLEM sending our kids to die over it.
When we say DC is unhinged from reality – from trannies, to COVID, to inflation, to going to war over a corrupt Eastern European kleptocracy – we are not exaggerating.
They’ve gone insane.
Another pedo ,beta boy acting out from behind a desk. I bet he will be on Hannity snarling and saying tough words again tonight.
The guy who says Pedo Biden is one of the most decent men he ever met. When do we get rid of the Lindsays and his ilk. I keep saying , it is great that we see and confront what the Dems are doing to us, but until we see the same in most Repubs, nothing will change. They are opposames.
Miss Lindsey should sign up. He would fit right in with our gender-confused military.
(Slapping my own wrist)
I bet even the trannies would question his mental fitness.
No doubt!
Donald Trump is against EVERY war for any reason and would stop it before it even began. You don’t know much, do you? Do a little research before speaking about something you obviously know nothing about.
Can you imagine the outcry if they had dropped a gas stove on it.
And I’m beginning to think I should have voted Democrat rather than Lindsey McCain.
We would all be better served by voting “anyone but Republican”.
The GOP must be destroyed. It cannot be reformed and it cannot be redeemed.
Miss Lindsay looking refreshed and wrinkle free. Someone had some work done.
Uses a very special cream.
Lionel Twain, AKA Miss Lindsay: How do I look so young? Quite simple. A complete vegetable diet, twelve hours sleep a night, and *lots* and *lots* of makeup.
May their sons and daughters be deployed to their war first!
That leaves Miss Lindsey out.
We dysfunctional military and we have zero manufacturing base, and China makes all our parts for war and our medicine comes from another country aka China. WAKE UP!
Of all the places to yell at folks to wake up, CTH seems the least likely place to need such encouragement.
How fast does the drone fly compared to the speed of a Russian fight jet? I don’t know about anyone else but I tend to pass and get in front of slower moving vehicles. I realize there are no lanes in airspace, but if you are going somewhere in one direction then you wouldn’t change direction because you are passing someone. Similar to being in a boat on a lake.
Putin is playing a very wise game. He’s doing just enough to let the US destroy itself from within. The sad part of that strategy is that if he’d just go ahead and nuke DC, he’d be doing us all a favor
Wha wha whaaaaat? A wise game? But … our media, military, and State Dept. told me that Putin expected to seize Kiev and all of Ukraine in 72 hours! And so he has been LOSING the War against Ukraine ever since then.
I know … because I read in the Sunday papers, err Sunday Fox cable programs, err Sunday internets …
They all said it.
That’s all we need to know it ain’t so.
The CFR and the Media
Largely unbeknownst to the general public, executives and top journalists of almost all major US news outlets have long been members of the influential Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).

Derka Derka Mohmad Jihad, Ms Lindsey.
McCains errand boy, Lindsey Graham. He has been so right on so many things.
How about going to the front lines of Bakhmut for a closer look with your boyfriend Little Adam Kinzinger and report back to us. A$$ Clown.
Wonder how much these drones cost. Got to be some happy contractors.
Are you sure it wasnt a balloon?
No not sure?
Twenty-three-million reportedly.
chump change…BlackLiesMatter got over $83 Billion.

Commies gonna grift.
case in point
Zero loves his race war.
I hate that we may well have to fight it.
Some fish don’t belong in the same aquarium, especially when the aggressive species are trained and goaded and never face consequences.
Question: For the purpose of these FBI statistics (retch) … did they count a Mexican gang member’s shooting of a black gang member as an anti-black hate crime? How about when a black kid shoots another black kid … like dozens of times every weekend in Chicago? Are those counted as anti-black hate crimes?
Asking for a brother
Those numbers are so unbelievably skewed they can only be half accurate if they are including MicroAggressions and ignoring the daily efforts to count coup on Whites and murder Asians.
Our own FAKE POTUS counts coup on us with every speech ! We’re all racists now. We’re all homophobics now. We’re all Islamophobics now …
Calling Senator Proxmire!
What shite show! And WTH does “environmentally unsound manner” mean?
It means “our better story” is pure virtue signalling bullshit.
They got nothing.
I don’t think even JK Rowling makes $110 billion for her … good stories. What an author that Zelensky guy is … !
He’s just an actor.
A very bad actor.
Derps write the scripts, with helpful suggestions from UkroNazis.
We need a law where every politician that calls for war are the first ones sent to fight the war they want so bad.
Let’s swap Lindsey for the Marine imprisoned for spying.
“Take me to the brig, I want to see the real marines.”
I guess since the IC/MIC/Uniparty blamed it on Russia, Russia, Russia, then it’s not the US’s fault that the US military participated in one of the world’s largest man-made environmental disasters since BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico
Uh, I don’t think you comprehended what DeSantis said. His comment is sly. He says we shouldn’t send F-16’s or troops, but that leaves a lot that he would be willing to send – ammunition, tanks, artillery systems, air defense systems, drones, armored vehicles, etc.
He also said the the goal of the US “should be” peace. He didn’t say that he would work toward peace at all. Just because something should be done doesn’t mean that it will be done or even contemplated. He’s a total phony.
President Trump is the only candidate who said he would make peace immediately.
We have not been attacked by anyone since WWII. But since WWII, we have attacked many countries, attempted 50 regime changes in the world, fought wars for the last 70 years all but 16 years in which we were at peace, and built 800 military bases over the world. It’s time we started providing for the people of this country instead of wasting blood and treasure in foreign wars. Build up our own country.
So we probably took down our own drone to justify increased spending against Russia and to add to that justification I’m expecting soon to hear from some military stooge “we didn’t act as aggressively when China floated their balloon across our restricted airspace.” … “There’s been a precedent established”.
That’s how I see it anyway.
the russian explanation is more believable than anything coming from washington
Now here’s the plan……….we immediately send little Lindsey to the front lines…….
Stuff it, Lindsey! Retire soon so you can go spout your crap of FAUX News.
FJB
FLG
Get your gun Ms. Lindsay and go fight , we will not miss you!
FILTHY tick tock InSannity and Linda Graham. The childless War Monger.
America you are freefalling. I hope and pray we get through the next manufactured crisis and maybe have a President Trump leading real men soon.

So which was it? Is this a peaceful eco-drone operating in International airspace? Or is it a US War Plane? Hey SD! Your Gov. cowers before the NCAALGBTQqueers … and your Senator implies we’re at WAR with Russia! Because, evidently, everyone in SD is fighting for LGBTQqueer rights … even going to WAR with Russia over it
SD?
Sorry … my mistake … that could be confused with Sundance. I meant South Dakota. The South Dakota politicians aren’t impressing me. Although their Gov. is a fine looking woman.
Yeah, Kinthenorthwestnomore has offered sobering documentation of their purplish state.
Is there a Russian version of the Monroe Doctrice?
Are they claiming a hemisphere while putting an 800 base footprint on the entire globe?
Miss Lindsey should go visit the grave of his former butt buddy McStain, and lament the good old days of fomenting endless wars, in the name of democratization. May he join McStain soon.
Methinks someone has Miss Lindsey by the short and curlies.
