NimdaQA

Because I peruse tons of Russian sites.

This is a sign of people expecting a future recession, btw.

Default on America’s debt? Do a blanket pardon on everyone who committed a federal crime?

Although because of Trump’s history of bankrupting Casinos and pardoning felons, maybe soon he will.

Hmmm, I wonder what this reminds me of…

Although unfortunately, I have my doubts that they will be reinstated.

Let us see what happened.

The pro-Maidan movement conducted a false flag operation where pro-maidan snipers shot their own protestors in order to incite public backlash against Yanukovych.

This has been confirmed by several hundred witness testimonies including wounded protestors, 2,000 videos, 6,000 photos, and 30 gigabytes of radio intercepts.

This allowed the coup to succeed and they proceeded to massacre the anti-maidan movement. I will PM you examples of these massacres.

The coup also resulted in a civil war breaking out between the new illegitimate government and those in Eastern Ukraine who supported the legitimate government.

Russia annexed Crimea according to them because they made an agreement with the legitimate government of Ukraine before Maidan to continue their lease over Sevastapol. Russia stated that the formation of this illegimate government threatened military infrastructure in Crimea which they rightfully owned due to an agreement with the previous government. Russia also named the massacres that were being conducted in Eastern Ukraine to annex Crimea to safeguard the lives of people in Crimea.

Oh and the majority of DPR and LPR forces were locals. People like to quote GRU war criminal Girkin who stated that the War in the Donbas would not have happened without him but they forget the rest of the quote. Girkin was stating that the separatists would have been crushed without the intelligence and weapons he provided them naming Mariupol as an example where the anti-Maidan movement got crushed (as the mostly unarmed civilians had no support and got gunned down by the AFU). He never said that he was the one who caused the unrest, only that it would have gotten crushed without his weapons and intelligence. Outside of volunteers from Russia or Crimea, the actual Russian Armed Forces did not participate outside of providing weapons and intelligence in any significant number until 2015 when DPR and LPR forces were being pushed back leading to Russia sending BTGs into Ukraine although they also sent in some forces on August 2014 which resulted in Minsk agreements which was violated by both sides resulting in Minsk II which Ukraine failed to implement.

Instead, Ukraine proceeded to implement new language laws which discriminated against the Russian language (going against the agreement), continued to imprison and torture political dissidents after the agreement was made as per Amnesty International which was also in violation of the Minsk Agreement which explicity stated that Ukraine was not allowed to imprison or punish people due to events related to the war in Donbas. Ukraine also refused to allow local elections in violation of the agreement.

"Ukraine insists that local elections can take place only after a complete ceasefire and withdrawal of all Russian troops and weapons.

Also a clear violation of the agreement as the entire agreement was Ukraine allows local elections, Russia withdraws then everyone’s happy. Russia can’t do its part if Ukraine doesn’t. The agreement specifically stated that elections come first and then withdrawal not the other way around. Ukraine clearly violated the agreement. This would lead to 2022 invasion.

China is expected to be ready to invade Taiwan in 2027, Trump should still be in office at that time so yes.

Can we all just unilaterally agree to cut Russia off from the internet?

No.

I mean, it’s like no one fucking remembers Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan?

Apparently not, I have seen MAGAites seriously advocating for an invasion of Mexico or advocating for an invasion of Iran.

I can only hate the Muskrat.

As I once said, my good ‘friend’ Ramzan Kadyrov had his cybertruck remotely disabled by Elon Musk.

Even Steve Bannon thinks Elon Musk is too racist and that should tell people something.

Beautiful masterpiece btw.

They’ve sent elements. Small groups.

Yes, US strength at the border is currently not ready for an invasion, not without substantial build-up (sending in a thousand troops into Mexico assuming the other 2k are support would be well stupid).

Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance assets including U-2S, RC-135V Rivet Joint aircraft, and P-8As are in Mexican airspace and some US Cyber Command teams have been pulled and refocused onto Mexico. This doesn't mean that they are preparing for an invasion (with several high-level arrests being claimed to have resulted from these Surveillance Flight which if true, would mean cooperation with Mexican government) but does mean that some type of operation might be conducted in Mexico.

“sustainment support” which is things like running food service

Hence why I referred to them as "additional support units".

But nonetheless, yes you are right. It ain’t quite an invasion force yet.

Not mutually exclusive.

Australia has a trade deficit with America.

American tariffs impact Australia's exports to America which frankly aren't much.

If Australia retaliates, this would impact America's exports to Australia which would be far more economically damaging.
