Today, June 12th, is Russia Day, a national holiday in the Russian federation. The symbolism of the intentionally timed events happening today seems to be lost on most western media.
A Russian Yasen-class nuclear submarine named “Kazan” arrived in Havana, Cuba today after piloting through the Florida straits. Watching a massive nuclear submarine sail into Havana is something extraordinary considering all the provocations taking place between the USA and Russia surrounding the conflict in Ukraine.
Additionally, in a counteraction to provide clarity to the intents and economic purposes of the Biden administration (DoS, CIA and IC), today the Treasury Dept announces new 2nd round sanctions against Russia. However, in comparative terms, the physical appearance of a nuclear-powered Russian submarine and a set of accompanying warships carrying hypersonic cruise missiles approximately 30 miles from the USA mainland, is a little more dramatic than western saber rattling about sanctioning two Russian banks, Sberbank and VTB.
The Russian submarine fleet, and specifically the Yasen-class submarine group, is the tip of the spear against any military force the USA might choose to deploy in Eastern Europe. Russian President Vladimir Putin is essentially signaling the people behind Joe Biden that he is willing to participate in the provocation approach.
The USA provoked Russia by moving NATO ever closer, including inside Ukraine. Now we see Russia provoking NATO by moving a nuclear capable fleet into position just a few miles from the USA coast. This follows the recent EU election where one of the key messages from the crushing of the pro-war leftists, was an EU citizenry rebuking the possibility of war with Russia.
The EU populists know Ukraine is a proxy fight driven by the United States and they do not want to participate. The European Union leadership wants war and leftist policy, the European Union citizens want peace and increased national sovereignty. The two EU political preferences are diametrically in conflict.
NATO and the proverbial western financial system (WEF group) want to block Russia, China, Iran and the growing economies from impeding with their carbon-trading schemes. The dollar-based digital currency is the largest operational hurdle in the process of creating a system of control based on energy use.
Digital identities and digital currencies are the predicate for digital control of the population. Thus, if you chase the Russian sanctions to their origination point, the motive you will find was/is essentially “the west” building a wall around the dollar-based global trade and finance system. Conflict with Russia set up the justification.
Yes, that is correct; we are heading straight into another banker’s war.

The Russians are Coming! The Russians are Coming! Will they visit Delaware?
Did the Russkies produce the “laptop” as so many gubermint officials confirmed that it was Russkie misinformation?? Shame on those nasty guys!
If they did it would not be the first time. They came within 70 miles in 2017. I believe we were told that it was a preplanned exercise.
Cue the Democrats calling for war to overthrow the government of Cuba, in 10 seconds, 9, 8, . . .
After Iran, Cuba is Obama’s next favorite military dictatorship. Well–after Iran and America.

Poor attempt at support.
Perhaps perusing the archives of this site could bring you up to speed with the rest of us.
Ignorance is bliss.
The intelligence community, per se, is the product of the Democratic Party. Long ago, the Democrats figured out how to use civil service rules to weed out conservatives from eligibility for jobs in the federal agencies. The professionals realized they could appoint anyone they chose to unpaid internships, but when permanent positions were filled, the former interns would be given credit for time on the job, and they would always have an advantage over those who had not served as interns. Examples are Rosenstein and Comey, who each interned with Mueller. Conservatives are eliminated from serving as interns using simple essay questions to identify their political bent.
The IC infiltrated those ranks; and they control the politicians through bribes, extortion, threats and blackmail.
Strange, I’ve noticed you for a while. Long enough to be familiar with Sundance’s stellar research and analysis exposing all of this and you still play this deflection game.
🤔
It is probably a combination of both. “Paul” is not the 1st to say that the IC has been at this awhile through hiring and weeding out the “undesirable conservatives” until there are none left.
No, Paul is not saying the IC has been at this a while.
Paul is saying, and continues to do so, place the blame on politicians or political parties for taking control of and directing the IC.
And that is not how it is done or had been done.
It is a constant deflection away from the IC. And he is not the only one.
It is good to know, that when I am confused about what I am saying, I can rely on you to inform me. I am not one of the boys of the chorus; I have my own perspective, and I attempt to inform or amuse without guile. Thank you for noticing me.
The Democrat Communists are kin to the Cuban Communists. They want economic integration not war.
I’m not laughing about a Russian nuclear sub and 3 warships off the coast of Cuba.
In 1962, JFK and Kruschev, in private negotiations had the wisdom (led by JFK) to work out an agreement. They defied their respective warmongering generals … and the world was spared nuclear holocaust… so that most of us here … could be born.
JFK possessed wisdom, intelligence, superior knowledge of history and personal experience as an officer in the USN so he knew … the hell that is war.
Biden doesn’t even know what room he’s in. He is completely incapable of leading our nation through these potentially repeating dangerous waters.
I’m gonna assume that Putin has the wisdom to be restrained. He does expect a sane, intelligent, and wise President Trump will return to the WH in several months … so it’s probably going to be ok.
Still, this is an aggressive act by Putin… and one that has historical significance attached to it.
The question is what will our imbicilic govt do.
Biden has been funding the weapons of war against Moscow….. and he overthrew Ukraine in 2014. Who is the aggressor again?
Did I say Russia was the aggressor? Nope. I said a Russian nuclear sub off the coast of Cuba is a … aggressive ACT, which it is, obviously.
Same point basically….. who was the aggressor though?
I know….sometimes it is difficult.🤣🤣
Russia makes visits almost yearly…
legally in International Waters to
visit their long time ally in Cuba…
But somehow Russia does it this year….
and it’s an….Aggressive Act.
Go figure. 💁🤷♀️🤷♀️
A reminder, a wake up call ….
gets turned into an aggressive act-
Pretzel Logic?
I don’t think it’s hard to recognize that aggressive acts by US/NATO in Ukraine followed by Russia moving a nuclear sub and 3 warships to the coast of Cuba is dangerously reminiscent of 1962, when we had a sane wise President but don’t this time.
And your … laughing emojis seem unseemly and frivolous to me as we witness what is clearly a dangerous and volatile situation… that could easily spiral out of control … catapaulting the world into another WW, which we all know will be catastrophic for the planet and 100s of millions, if not billions, of human lives.
The missile crisis in 62 was created by our evil government first putting nuclear missiles in Turkey. The Cuban crisis was the Soviets response.
You need to stop believing anything that our government and media says.
The US shamefully, which I’ve said many times.
Nothing wrong with showing their flag across the world, is there?
Hardly aggressive at all. Now, an aircraft carrier in the Red Sea – a constricted waterway – *that* could be considered aggressive. Or two carriers in the Eastern Med…..or carriers etc. in South Korea…..or carriers etc. off Taiwan….
No, the Russians aren’t being aggressive. They are making a point though – *loud and clear*. (aka pee off!)
😂 🤣 🤣 Act of aggression? Nope.
Russian fleet visits Cuba practically
every year.💁🤷♀️
I posted links to articles of their visits
in 2019,2023 and even 2008. There are
probably more articles regarding their
visits.
Russia has been close with Cuba for decades.
See recent visit of Cuban President to Moscow
for unveiling of Cuban statue. I believe it was
last year.
Russia is traveling in International Waters-legally.
Act of aggression…..absolutely not.
Look on page one of this thread for
the links to articles.
There are more articles that you
can probably find by doing a simple
internet search of all the previous
visits to Cuba.
Why I always recommend reading

The perceived “aggressive act” is the sub transiting to port on the surface. That is a show of force.
Maybe (doubtful)….but what are the depths of the waters in those areas?
One doesn’t mess around with billions of dollars worth of submarine (or surface ship).

Western Media Eggs On Cold War Narrative and Russian Nuclear Threat

Even if Joey had all his wits about him, he would still be incapable of leading the U.S. through a crisis such as this. Bidumb has always been a moron and a buffoon.
” in private negotiations had the wisdom (led by JFK) to work out an agreement. They defied their respective warmongering generals … and the world was spared nuclear holocaust”
Kare… why dont you give us the details about what they “worked out” in those private negotiations?
My understanding is that their “deal” pertained to nukes in Turkey but several of those JRF/K communications were private so we may never know exactly. We do know it was resolved in the 11th hour. And we do know JFK did not follow the more aggressive recommendations of his generals.
And, JFK was assassinated a year later and Kruschev was replaced swiftly after resolution of the Cuban Missile crisis.
We know that in 1962 Americans understood the seriousness of that crisis.
Dont forget this is a reaction to NATO doing the biggest naval excercises ever in the Baltic Sea a stones throw from Kalinigrad.

It’s not Russian aggression, its a tit-for-tat.
Was just saying this to my buddy. You can’t even be mad at them. We are all up in their s—t. What else are they supposed to do
I’ve said this many times too.
They’ve been playing this harmful Russia games for so long now.. with lies.
How long do people think Putin is going to take all this?
I am not Russian and I am very weary of it all. I have to give him kudos for having restraint.
The right man in the right job for sure!
It’s not Russian aggression, its a tit-for-tat.
It’s the Bear growling, and showing a little teeth. Best to respect that.
Biden is an idiot and our congress allowed this clownshow to carry on for too long….. Putin sees him not only threatening Russia, but Biden also is threatening the US citizens via F15 attacks…. He is a madman.
Under Trump we were almost becoming industrial allies with Russia. Yet Biden’s EU bosses didn’t want that, so they stirred up this larger WAR and the Nato BS talks with Ukraine.
A commonsense person might say they need to remove the Criminal Regime in DC that is bankrupting us and our banking system….. then sitdown with Putin and pray he comes to a peaceful decision …. to wind down these wars before it gets out of hand.
Wait till The Bear calls in his manicurist….!

Supposedly BALTOPS-22 was when USN divers planted the explosives on the NORDSTREAM pipelines. I wonder what “surprises” come out of this year’s version?
10 MT of bubbling delight in the Baltic Sea?
🙁
Very good point.
Ok. We acted aggressively. Russia is responding in kind… but I sure don’t like this game.
At the end of May, Ukraine, using long range drones destroyed two of Russia’s ten early warning radar systems deep inside Russia. The radars did not detect the attack. That’s because these radars are designed to see strategic ballistic missile (nuclear) launches from over the horizon. They have zero value for anything involving the war in Ukraine.
Now why on earth would we, ahem … they … do that? The level of recklessness and immaturity of those driving this inebriated administration, drunk on hubris and power, is unprecedented. Where is the diplomacy, where are the statesmen?
We should all be worried.
This is like watching a toddler play with a loaded hand gun and the safety is off, and gun is cocked.
I have often referred to the

Biden would be the Toddler 😉
This group of people are adults in the physical and chronological sense but mentally they are adolescents… at best.

THIS is the development to be worried about, according to Col. MacGregor.
In addition to making Russia trigger happy by necessity, it also blinds Russia as to activities to the South of Russia (think Israel versus Syria and Iran).
Uh hmm
Not true. The drones made superficial damage to the outside of what are facilities that would require far more fire power than a drone, and likely a missile to disable it.
So a bunch of balloons filled with paint thrown at the ‘white house’/’capital’ would evoke no response, since it is just a bit of water-based paint?
Mind you, just walking near those buildings can result in decades of prison time…
And as this all goes on, the sheeple are having Pride Month to celebrate being homosexual..
Yes, we should be worried about a whole lot.
Those of us that get all this ARE Worried !!
Think about Sodom and Gomorrah. The men, young and old, from every quarter of Sodom surrounded Lot’s house to sexually assault the two angels in his house. Read Genesis 19.
The perverted evil of homosexuality spreads like cancer and destroys the fabric of society. As I told my husband expect things to get much much worse unless there is divine intervention. The evil of Amerika stinks to high Heaven and absolutely disgusts me. Best to repent and trust Jesus.
yes, that happened during the first Gay Pride month.
Just think of all at the money Blackrock will make when they get the contract to rebuild the nuked world. /s
They didn’t destroy anything of the sort. Photoshopped BS.
The 2 radars specifically monitor to the south, the area correlating over Iran. The US and NATO determine the targets, the target aquistioning and operate the weapon systems we deployed into Ukraine. Russian air defense systems and electronic warfare are very effective, but concentrated in protecting military targets. Which answers why the US chooses soft civilian targets like apartment buildings and Kerch Bridge which are less protected allowing a few missiles to hit their targets. We have a very limited supply of missiles and our MIC industry is unable to expand rapidly. The terror use of our weapons against civilians seems like a waste, but it is all we can do for headlines and maintaining the narratives. Targeting their early warning system opens us to retaliation from any third party against any of our worldwide scattered bases and assets. It was a very bad idea to escalate.
From the first video, it’s said that there are no nuclear warheads on the sub, so there’s no danger. While there may, or may not be nuclear armaments aboard, there’s still danger. Are we really to accept that Putin has gone all Barney Fife on us and sent his boys out with no bullets in the guns?
I’m a little surprised that Geraldo has not volunteered to board the vessel to open up the launch tubes to see what’s in them.
That class of submarine is an ICBM carrier. More gaslighting by the clueless Western media.
News to me. Maybe you are confusing it with the Borei class boats? I guess there is a nuclear warhead variant of the Kalibr which is a ship or sub VLS launched cruise missile. The US gave up its nuclear SLCM, but there is an ongoing battle between Rs in Congress and Biden over the need for a new SLCM (Trump admin approved it). Biden position is the W76-2 warhead for Trident SLBM is sufficient.
In my day the Soviets always had a couple nuclear missile-armed boats off the east coast. Working on that was a major mission of the east coast USN, and NATO had the mission of sealing off the GI-UK gap to prevent Soviet boats from entering the Atlantic.
After the Soviets built better missiles and subs like Delta class, the operating areas that could be used greatly expanded. Since the fall of the USSR it seems like USN ASW capability has been allowed to atrophy, though maybe it is just more covert.
A factoid of those days was since women could not be assigned to combat jobs, sub hunting was a major career field for women line officers in the USN.
The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!

“Today, June 12th, is Russia Day, a national holiday in the Russian federation. The symbolism of the intentionally timed events happening today seems to be lost on most western media.”
In Moscow as in D.C. there are no coincidences.
June 12th 1901 is also the date the Cuban constitutional convention adopted Cuba’s first Constitution after gaining independence from Spain. The US had held up approval of the Cuban constitution until Cuba adopted several provisions demanded by the US (that limited Cuban sovereignty, such as giving the US a lease on Guantanamo Bay.) The US was still militarily occupying Cuba following the Spanish American War. The constitution went into effect in May 1902.
So June 12th marks Cuban post-Spanish Colonial independence (albeit while still under the thumb of the USA) and also marks Russia’s post-Soviet independence (ie Russia Day)
I lived through the last one of these when I was a teenager living a few miles outside D.C. It was terrifying. I could never have imagined the things these horrible people in Washington have done would have been possible here. God only knows what they will do next.
It’s interesting as to how much the sub looks like the Nautilus in the 1953 film ‘20,000 Leagues Under the Sea’
Kazan is an incredibly advance sub and has tremendous destructive capabilities – read up.
Thank you, but you missed my point completely. The Nautilus was ‘an incredibly advance sub and had tremendous destructive capabilities’ for its time, c. 1865. Watch the movie and read ‘up’ the novel!

This seems like a topic to post in the Presidential thread to discuss the merits of Good vs Mcguire.
Mcguire endorsed by President Trump.
Is there actually anything worth discussing considering whats at stake for us all and how little time is left?
Good endorsed Ron DeSantis rather than President Trump. Like Ron and Nikki, Good eventually endorsed PDJT once it was clear that PDJT would be the Republican Presidential nominee.
Choices have consequences.
Hopefully Goods consequences will be losing to McGuire so Good, and other Republicans who heed what happened to him, will live and learn and improve before its too late for ALL of us.

Astonishingly I don’t see this story anywhere else. The WSJ has its usual tabloid hit pieces on Musk, but nary a mention of the Russia armada in our back yard. I wonder if the Pentagon is aware of this? It’s truly mind boggling.
It’s on Zerohedge, who incidentally has better economic news than WSJ also.
Why would you want to read that rag?
The first video that Sundance included with the story was filmed by CNN.
Russia did launched a satellite into low Earth orbit, probably a counterspace weapon for attacking other satellites in the same orbit.
Now they are all up in our house with this Kazan sub,.
No worries,
Biden administration said if they get any closer we’ll pull their hair and scratch their eyes out .
It’s simple turnabout. We/NATO have been doing this in the black sea and Baltics

It’s always our “friends” with little hats.
Pres Biden has just given Zelinsky permission to bomb Moscow and two ( of 10) of Russia’s nuclear attack early warning system have been bombed by Ukraine ie America.
This is not “provocation” this is WAR. The stupid USA has committed an act of WAR against Russia.
Those submarines and ships arriving in Cuba are not there for “provocation”. They are there preparing for war and a clear signal to the US population of what it feels like to be Russia, constantly under a 5 minute threat of being bombed.
It seems from most of the comments on here that even treepers have not yet got the message.
I recommend that people start watching Judge Napolitanos excellent youtube interviews with diplomats, ex UN weapons inspectors, ex CIA and informed others to find out the real situation which has now become extremely dangerous for the whole world.
Mimi, I am glad that you directed folks to check out the Judge’s high-information podcasts. He has many good interviewees. Information you do not find from Western mainstream news outlets.
People think they will be shopping at Walmart when SHTF. Wake up, Walmart shelves are emptying at a rapid rate to feed the pink haired troops! It won’t be Russia who kills you, it will be the New Fascist American Army!
They are trying to starve us out, via inflation….. Prices on some items I buy went up went up again…. ~20%+ in the past 2 weeks. After already seeing an over 100% increase in price since Biden stole the WH.
Regular shoppers are reporting canned goods, and dry goods wiped out in their stores
As soon as they started sending drones into Moscow, Biden bit off more than he can chew.
This is War and Putin isn’t playing around any longer.
Yep. The other night my TV and cell both went down for a long time and that’s the first thing I thought of.
OT BUTT.
Heavy emphasis on the BUTT.
Did you notice he went from “0” for a long time to “10” in a flash like ‘others’ do often? 👀
Sp00ky!
And as I mentioned before, we have parked warships off the coast of many countries for decades. I’m sick of the charade of BS.
Worth noting that when Russian warships leave their local waters they are accompanied by a sea-going tug. Relatively speaking, it’s not that they’ve gotten much better since Reagan, it’s that we’ve gotten much, much worse.
As far as menacing, every morning you wake up within range of a number of Russian ICBMs, and sub-launched SLBMs . Having a single nuclear armed sub within 90 miles is a technical change in the threat – reduced flight time, which has routinely been managed since … what, the first Yankee operated off the coast in the 60s? Unless STRATCOM has lost the ‘how to’ manual it’s not the end of the world.
Some wicked people with underground mansions and mountain top bunkers seem anxious for war.
Yeah but who is going to mow their lawn?
THe EU folks are pushing hard for war, before Trump wins. This is all coordinated with their Rhetoric. Because they are the same ones HRC and now Biden are working for to undermine the USA.
I love Sundance but I don’t think you’re quite right. Digital currency along with nuclear world war doesn’t accomplish anything. Digital currency with the threat of a world war accomplishes a lot. This isn’t a Russian act of aggression but a Russian check mate months in the planning.
I’m a VietVet, I’ve been rooted against by the same sort that is in control of our government(same bloodline, “…I loathe the military…”, etc.); I don’t feel the least bit guilty in rooting against our government in this situation. Who would’ve ever thought?
The upside: It will diminish the perverts, pedos, criminals, fraudsters, the crazies and the elites who think their expensive bunkers will save them. What’s not to like about that? I know, like Aggiegirl, I’ll see myself out.
“our government” =/= our government
“our government” == a government covertly installed via assassinations and coups
Consequently, “rooting against our government” is what sentient patriots who love America are doing.

Yes all wars are bankers wars. That is why WE NEED ALTERNATIVE CURRENCIES NOW!! If the States would develop an alternative currency to the federal reserve note , a currency issued by the state and not in any way tied to the private central bankers we could probably END ALL WARS..or at least greatly reduce the number.
And establish Public Banks that serve the people , like a utility , per Ellen Brown’s Public Banking Institute model
That’s the way the people win back their sovereignty and end these wars!!
Interesting….
Money and currency is the sole constitutional purview of the federal government, but they farmed that out to the Fed in 1913.
States cannot constitutionally issue currency to be used nationwide.
Article 1, Section 10 of the U.S Constitution, states that “No State shall make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts.”
Many states are enacting legislation to make gold and silver legal tender
Furthermore from a “alternative currency guru “ I am working with:
“What I am proposing is really quite simple, and in my view, entirely in harmony with the US Constitution.
It requires no gold or silver coinage nor backing, just (1) the declaration of silver as legal tender in the state, and (2) the use of silver as a standard of value and unit of account for various credit instruments issued either by the state government and/or by private enterprises.
The state might further organize a clearing “house” for managing the process of offsetting credit claims and obligations/commitments of government and private entities within the state”
Oh yes we can. And we MUST!
WE NEED TO FOCUS ON RE ELECTING PRESIDENT TRUMP NOW!
Otherwise none of these wishes, including wishes cast in ALL CAPS, will ever happen.

I respectfully disagree Cozette. The States can practice extreme Federalism now. The Constitution actually requires the States to push back and “nullify”unconstitutional laws. The Constitution recognizes that the protection of human and civil rights enshrined in the Constitution is ultimately the responsibility of the States and their citizens.
I think we are beyond relying on one man and one office (Presidency) to save our Republic and freedoms.
It is up to us and we need to be:
1 Nullifying unconstitutional federal laws now
2 Establishing alternative currencies
3 Establishing public banks (NOT private banks)
IMHO
So, going forward, under whose umbrella do you imagine the states have a better chance of accomplishing anything? We sure as hell better choose the correct umbrella.
Not wishes Cozette. Actionable Items.

Do we see yet what Obama, Biden, Soros, Schwab and others have been fomenting all this time? America has never been weaker; 30+ TRILLION in debt, hopelessly dependent on imported food, manufactured material goods, cars, petroleum, uranium energy and a totally incompetent and dysfunctional Kongress and Administration! Russia, has never been stronger for some time; has formed military, financial and material alliances with the majority of the World; excluding NATO. Further, they are manufacturing with their own workforce, using their own energy and own resources. Sen Lindsay Graham put it into words yesterday; saying we need to double down on Ukraine to TAKE the resources and agricultural wealth from Ukraine, so that Putin cannot come in later and claim them! THAT IS DOWNRIGHT THEFT ! Is that what America has become; is that what motivates our political leadership in this country? WE DESPERATELY NEED A DRAMATIC CHANGE OR ELIMINATION OF CURRENT POLITICS TO RID OURSELVES OF THIS EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO OUR SURVIVAL ON EARTH!
Some may recall we being in this position back in the 60’s! JFK got us out of that spot! JOE BIDEN IS NO JFK; EVER!
I frequently contemplate the opening scenes of “Designated Survivor”
However, DJT is definitely a JFK, only faaaar better. Thank God.
Thank you. I like the way you are thinking. Honestly, a Russian submarine near Cuba gave me the biggest laugh I’ve had all day. But I did not feel that way during the Cuban missile crisis in the sixties. My sister and I were frightened, and tried to put up supplies for a bomb shelter.
Perfect timing methinks. The sub shows up just while everyone in the US political class are wearing Depends over poor baby Biden being found guilty, Merrick Garland in contempt, etc. , etc, etc.
Amazing to think of how self centered the US guvmint is these daze. Honestly, I fear the US guvmint more than I do whatever Putin is doing these daze.
I think the message of the sub showing up is a “big howdy” to the insular, self centered, egoists who are not even aware of how very short their lifespans are. Imagine a one of them recognizing that they are NOT in control of anything.
Have run out of steam. Peace.
Sure, worry about some Russians visiting Cuba.
I am more worried about what happened to the crew on the Eisenhower aircraft carrier.
it was so badly damaged by the Houthis that it likely had to be towed away towards the Saudi coast and it’s entire crew removed.
Isn’t this a bigger deal?
Apparently not.
What were they doing there. Delivering democracy and McDonald’s?
Oh, they were bombing the Yemen goat herders until the Houthis made a pizza delivery that knocked the stuffing out of the Eisenhower putting it out of action. Not sure how many of the Ike’s crew were killed and injuried. The Ike has gone silent. Cover up for sure.
A properly prepared pizza, spinning at tremendous speeds, with matching forward velocities, should leave quite a mark on an old, soon-to-be-decommissioned carrier.
🙂
I had not heard that it was badly damaged or required towing (there’s recent images of it running on its own power), just that they moved the heck away up the Red Sea (so not not Saudi Arabia) once they realized it was in danger because the optics of it getting seriously damaged or, worse, sunk by Houthi rebels would shatter the illusion of US military power both abroad and at home.
Trump can’t get over that Bob Good backed De Santis and not him. That’s why he’s against Good. Period. Vanity.
Is Mueller going to do a Russian Collusion investigation of Joe Biden?
Did Putin already send a trial balloon over the USA from coast to coast?
Should we start learning Russian yet? Nyet?
Just asking.
If there is World War III, only Democrats should be drafted.
Let them make the fatal error of drafting all conservatives to try and kill us off. Bad idea doing that by heavily arming conservatives and throwing in fighter jets and Apache choppers etc…. Just sayin
Fair enough, but sure way to lose a war.

Off topic again Hillary?
Watch Madow the “Mensa” genius flip out and say this is a dog whistle because “salve” is slave to people that read to fast. So Trump is trying to get American speed readers to think he’s mocking slaves calling them “butt hurt”. Watch, it’s coming.
Will Lindsey Graham attack Cuba now? Come on Lindsey, release the hounds.
He’ll end up sending the invasion force to Bahamas instead…..

What was it Putin said? “The Vampire Ball is over. You have gorged yourselves with flesh, but no more. ” (Not an exact quote).
I believe there’s still a Tatar population in
Crimea
And here too. “Turkic” root.
Apparently connotation #4 was not “awaiting for approval”…
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
I think this is a smart move by Putin. Perhaps Russia will double down with some strategic hardware. All in the name of “exercises”. It may show the Europeans how distracted the DC folks can get.
Islamorada reporting?
Russia has nothing on our DEI Generals and mush brain President.
The folks on this site are far too well informed to fall for your disinformation. Trump could not pick Supreme Court nominees that he probably really wanted, because he had to work within the constraints of the Constitution, ie Senate Confirmation. McConnell got to pick Trump’s justices, unfortunately. Your other criticisms of Trump are equally hollow.
The consequences of a stolen election and criminals running our once great nation.
Thank-you, as that was a good picture of Havana Cuba. … + A modern city with a modern Russian nuclear submarine entering the Cuban Harbor in the video.
Joe Biden’s puppet masters are lunatics.
I’m old enough to remember the Cuban Missile Crisis. … + My father paid $65 very used DeSoto car for me, a few years later. I would search around town to pay $0.25 a gallon for gasoline. … The price was usually about $0.30 to $0.35 at most gas stations.
[The Cuban mechanics keep the old American cars on the road. Interesting that the old cars are so durable. The low-rider car clubs here in California still have the old cars too.]
There were nice, old cars in America too – until the dough-head Zero took them off the road forever.
Noticing the huge red flag self identifier, “true conservative”, coupled with parroting Anti Trump squawking points?
Another red flag descriptor == ” principled”.
Bannon has always been on Team Bannon and positioning himself to undermine and ultimately replace DJT.
Remember how McConnell baited him into using Breitbart to slur Alabamas 2017 Special Election Senate candidate who PDJT wanted enuf to not only endorse but hold a rally for? Bannons guy won and then, as PDJT predicted, DEEP RED Alabama rejected Bannons guy, Judge Roy Moore and instead elected a Democrat Senator
Thanks to Bannon, just when PDJT needed a show of support from his base instead he was successfuly sabotaged while Senator Mitch plus his buddy Senator Chuck smirked.
I-Know-Betters, don’t. And I-Know-Betters like Bannon are dangerous loose cannons.
Unfortunately, Bannons motives =/= PDJTs.
One tends to be Self Serving while PDJT is Self Sacrificing.
Obviously, “sloppy Steve” is in my prayers as are all I-Know-Betters who succumb to temptations to rule rather than serve.
