Russia said exactly the same about Ukraine in 2014 - just before sending infantry, tank, airborne and air defence units into Ukraine's Donbas in August 2014. Russia said the same thing again about Ukraine in January 2022 - just before attempting the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

I picture Boebert at one point kind of standing there weighing her two options at life pursuit; a fork in the road if you will. Making films for Pornhub or being a politician? In the end she went with the one that seemed a better fit bc it required less integrity.

This is a pretty amazing article. It gets a little preachy at times. But the goods in the article don’t need it. A whole operation based on buying up long running websites, firing all staff and pumping them full of mountains of AI slop. Fascinating. A sort of boiler room ai dystopia.

What to do? 1. Vote in person 2. If you asked for a ballot and USPS does not send it, go vote in person 3. If you do get a mail in ballot do NOT mail via USPS. Find nearest drop box even if you must go to county courthouse. Help others get there too. 4. Be like France. Take to the damn streets!

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.
