perhaps.... but honestly if cenk could just drop the TDS and defense of trannies he could be palatable and I would not be opposed to working with someone like him on areas we agree on. I think like bill maher he's too prideful to ever admit he was that glaringly wrong about trump and other related topics though so into the crystal he must go.

There's been a lot of rumors about ol' Doug over the months and none of it seems to stick. Wouldn't surprise me though, that guy's such a sleaze. And that washed up Jo is the female Harry Sisson, paid DNC activist only.

Speaking of sleazy..

Cenk's idea would probably to start using horse drawn carriages to save on fuel costs because he wants to fuck horses.

Why the fuck did I learn about Russia’s response through a damn meme video.

Because Memeology 101 is a very educational taco. He's been doing this snippet news content for years and is very dedicated to the craft. He's very quick to report things and get it out to the masses, and is inoffensive enough to not get shitcanned by pajeet overlords. He used to cover DSP before his sanity went over the edge because of, well, you know, everything.

fructose has the unfortunate effect of being processed by the liver though, which although not a big deal occasionally if it's all the time and paired with alcohol and/or seed oils contributes to fatty liver. You can induce it in monkeys that way.

There's no such thing as a free lunch when it comes to sugary drinks, so it's better to have them rarely if at all.

it's not a 'free lunch' sucrose is the way most sugars appear in plant sources and the delayed blood sugar hit is probably a benefit when its mixed with glucose. that means a soda made entirely out of glucose syrup and dextrose powder isn't healthier its just a diabetic rescue drink

Ok... What the hell is this? I can't confirm. Flynn has nothing I can spot for archiving.

They aren't doing it to start WW3
More so they want to portray Trump as a Russian agent when he inevitable tries to calm tensions down

They'll do it. It ain't rainbows. Now as to if that's the sole reasoning... Seems unlikely. Its not crazy to see the desperation of the dems not wanting voter ID laws ...

The Russian boogeyman thing isn't working anymore. Most normal people don't see Russia that way, it's just the Fanny Traggots on bluesky and the liberal media.

People too young to remember the USSR freaking out over a nation that's struggled to invade Ukraine and had to ask North Korea for help is hilarious.

They are willing to use nukes on Kiev.

Why? What benefit would this give them? What would it cost them? Don't just go OH NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOKS!!!!, think.

If Putin did nuke Kiev:

Xi would absolutely lose his shit on him and he's made that clear. That would make it easy for India to be out maneuvered into siding with the west and likely force it to. Putin would still have Iran, woo hoo! The entire rest of the world would change its clothes and come back to see that NATO had flattened the base used to launch the nuke, and then would promptly cut almost all ties with Russia entirely.

Putin would then have to deal with internal threats, the oligarchs, since he just demonstrated he's risking their lives for this expedition of his, and the people who carried the orders out would also be forced to run to Putin for safety, or find themselves capped.

Clandestine operations that have been on standby ran by the USA, China, and maybe even a few others would be activated.

Null would post "It happened lol" and people would sneed real hard and then it would fade into memory in a month at most.

If Putin only threatens:

Scared people lobby their governments to stop helping Ukraine. The cost of him flapping his gums is free and maybe a few loaves of bread and a plane ticket for Mr Carlson to visit him again. He might get sued by GW for copying them.

🤔

Oh no Russia has tried nuclear blackmail for the 6 gorillionth time since 1949

Anyway...

And it's been effective on both sides, As it wont cause a war, but mutual assured destruction (and destroying a fair chunk of the planet)

This particular decree gives permission to their military allowing a nuclear strikes, in the case of direct assistance of any hostile nuclear powers.

You think the Americans should call this bluff?

Kahn's Escalation Ladder is a good way to analyze this brought to you by people who know how brinkmanship works.

I don't know why everyone thinks that "you either capitulate or we skip to the end!!!!" these days. I think for younger people it's because of how overbearing schools and parents have been. When you're not a helpless child, or a pussy, people tend to escalate in a reasonable way if they have things to lose.

Putin has a lot to lose. He won't do this unless he stands to gain. He will lie because he thinks it will help him and it's basically free.

Let me ask you this: Why should Russia call the USA's bluff? Why should a militarily more powerful nation get bullied by a nation that can't even invade Ukraine successfully and has resorted to years of "don't cross that line or else" and "don't cross THAT line or else!"

Unless tac nukes are traded back and forth I'm not worried and I really don't get why people are so goddamn pussified.
