I am losing oil platforms in a land war to a country without a navy in a sea they don't even border. I remain a master strategist.

OTD in 2013 CIA began its “coup” by sending group of unarmed students to repeatedly headbutt the batons & boots of peaceful riot policemen so as to start Euromaidan so Nyland could give them cookies.

This is a good one everyone should give a read!!

Russia has been looking for a pretext(s) to make this accusation, but unfortunately for them, there are none. Baiting the West with drone and jet incursions hasn't worked. And Russian officials are once again ratcheting up nuclear threats. All because their war machine is losing steam. Damn shame.

VIDEO: 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 Images of Trump and Epstein projected onto Windsor Castle Campaign group Led By Donkeys projected a video montage of US President Donald Trump with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein onto the castle, where Trump was due to be received for a historic second state visit

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin? TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

Look, the zombie apocalypse is no cause to neglect the garden and the food it provides. Grab your gloves and boots and read "A Gardener Teaches His Son to Enrich the Soil and Plan for the Future" by Jennifer Hudak in our third issue:

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

Three kids dead in a school shooting. A political leader and her husband assassinated. No flags lowered. No national grief. But one right-wing commentator dies, and suddenly we remember how to mourn. America doesn’t honor lives lost, it markets them.

What is work? C. Feng brings us a story of someone who's gotta get on that grindset in front of a webcam. The powers that be gave him no choice in Subscribe and Lend Me Your Eyes. www.neondystopia.com?p=100043336

Trump sees himself as an elected monarch, and any decision he makes is presumed legitimate because he made it.

Remarkable scenes at Belaya airfield in Irkutsk, Russia. Ukraine has launched a devastating attack on Russia’s fleet of strategic bombers. The base is over 4000 km from Ukraine, but $500 drones are currently wiping out $100 million planes. Russia’s Pearl Harbor.
