yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 25/08/2026I just don’t think that Putin will tolerate deviation from his instructions. 110
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Ukraine is working to introduce the Russian people to the reality of this war. They now see their infrastructure burning, but they’ve been told it’s NATO attacking so they’re willing to suffer for victory. If they knew the truth they might be less willing.  000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 25/08/2026He probably is, but Trump is the one setting policy. I believe Trump is compromised. 130
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 25/08/2026The IS doesn’t tell the Kremlin what to do, they take instructions from the Kremlin. 130
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 25/08/2026I think he’s there in person to take instructions from the FAB or requirements from Putin to relay to Trump. If Russia requires intelligence information he may also be there to deliver that information personally to ensure that delivery remains secret from the rest of our intelligence community. 030
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 01/04/2026Not really. Mexico is our neighbor and used to be our friend until Trump. Russia isn’t going to use nuclear weapons against the US over a leaky tanker full of oil. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/01/2026And I’ll bet he didn’t stop it just to steal the oil. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/01/2026substack.com/@anchorlight...substack.comAnchor Light Publications (@anchorlightpublications)Trump shared this as a photo. Someone turned it into a video. Much improved! 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026I can’t understand why. The fascists hate the tourists but love their money. Plus they’ve erected so many barriers to entry that it could cost you thousands and tons of stress. Just don’t come here. It’s not worth it and it’s dangerous. Go somewhere nicer. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026Plus we’ve erected lots of barriers that make coming to a country overrun with fascists not nearly worth it. Stay home and watch it all on your tv. You’ll be glad you did. 010
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026We don’t much like fascists. You should take your cracker neo Nazi self over to Twitter where you’ll fit in. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026I’m kind of hoping some teams opt out. It would hurt the sport but would be a very visible protest of what is happening here. Our constitutional republic is being torn down. Putin is calling the shots and showing that we didn’t win the Cold War after all. 020
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026The people I’ve talked to say it’s too difficult and complicated to visit the US anymore. Now we’ve added dangerous to the reasons to avoid us. I’ve asked friends to please not come here while this regime is in power. 100
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026Or go to Oregon and drive the fascists out. Did I just say that out loud? Crap! 010
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 09/01/2026I wish they’d do it, but they won’t. They don’t want to hurt their own businesses which are dependent on US exports and imports. They’ll silently see us as a pariah and discuss our crimes amongst themselves. Maybe they’ll take steps to reduce their dependence on the US. I wish they’d do more. 020
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 12/06/2025Trump is a Russian asset. He and his team will do everything in their power to promote Russian interests over Ukrainian interests. They claim they’re just interested in peace, but that’s just a cover. They don’t care about peace, they care about Russia succeeding in Ukraine and on the world stage. 010
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Density is danger. Spread out, please. 010

yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025None of this will matter. The power seized will not be given back. Separation of powers has been wrecked beyond repair. 100
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Very true. The mob needs to feel like they have a voice and can effect change. It gives them an emotional outlet. Nothing will be changed except messaging and cosmetics. This cake is baked. 020
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025All republicans in all elected positions are complicit in some way. They all need to be voted out. 110
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I’m all for banning X and Facebook, but Europe needs American technology, expertise and tax dollars. Europe has an opportunity now to capture those from the US and use them for good rather than evil. 200
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Cut deals with China and India for expanded trade and start replacing the US in your supply chains. Encourage US companies to relocate to Europe. Europe has been sleeping but they have enormous economic power. 230
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Hitler and Stalin divided Poland and now Trump and Putin are trying to divide Ukraine. No. 0163
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025They should all be yelling at themselves in the mirror. 160
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025The politicians, the red voters or both? 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Poodles are in no way involved in what’s going on. Trump and his goons are definitely NOT related to Poodles or any other type of dog. The Dog Council and representatives from the different dog breeds want to make this very clear. 050
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025F them. They voted for this and now they own it. Time for the US to get taken behind the wood shed for a good licking. They’ve got no excuse for being surprised by what’s going on. Trump and his regime were very clear during the campaign about what they intended to do. Some of us payed attention. 130
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025But Europe has smart people and great weapons quality. Send Ukraine advanced weapons, encourage European veterans to join their Air Force, help them with intelligence. There are ways to efficiently use available resources. Sacrifices will absolutely be needed in the near term, though. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I don’t think Europe can replace the US support. They simply lack the resources and manufacturing capacity and aren’t willing to grow that capacity quickly. A wartime footing would be needed, with emergency efforts to grow capacity and rearm. 210
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I believe this is exactly the case. They’re succeeding and now using the US to pressure Europe into backing down in Ukraine. The only winner is Russia. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Russia has found it’s easier to buy a country quietly than to fight it militarily. 100
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Totally agree. Maybe with a clause governing agricultural goods for 5 years or so to ease the impact on western farmers. That would make it more palatable in the west and I think the Ukraine would quickly agree. Good for all of Europe. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Unfortunately, NATO has no mechanism by which a member can be kicked out. Too bad. Trump will never be punished. That opportunity has passed. His only judge now will come from historians if they’re still free to publish. 010
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Each country in Western Europe has particular defense manufacturing expertise. Allow them to focus on these. Maybe Germany and Britain for tanks, France and Sweden for aircraft, Ukraine and Turkey for drones, Italy and Finland and Poland for artillery ammunition, etc. Better than diluting talent & $ 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Vastly increase your manufacturing base, attract disgruntled US scientists, engineers, defense, healthcare and space experts. Focus on developing near-future export opportunities. Cooperate as allies towards these goals instead of competing with each other. 100
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Ukraine has almost as many tanks, afv, apv, and artillery as the rest of Western Europe combined. They have almost 1 million active troops while most of the largest western countries have less than 250 K. 100
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Europe and Canada could really take advantage of the destruction taking place in the US. Offer fast track citizenship to those with adv degrees from the US. Particularly target those with defense manufacturing and medical expertise. Maybe immediate citizenship if willing to renounce US citizenship. 0130
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025And build up defenses on Greenland quickly and extensively in case Trump decides to move against it. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Republican senators and representatives and their media outlets will absolutely back Trump. They’ll express opposition loudly and then vote to do exactly as Trump says. 100
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025That’s exactly what Russia fears the most. 010
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025But Europe needs to sacrifice for a bit so it can vastly expand its defense manufacturing capacity. It simply doesn’t have enough ammunition to fight Russia on its own. 000
yankee-tick.bsky.social @yankee-tick.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Except a lot of soldiers these days are MAGA fools. 100
