Please remember that a lot of the information about oily oligarch and fuckerists funds were exposed because of the bravery of Natalie Edwards. buzzfeednews.com/article/anthon…
Why does the name Trump keep coming up in my head? home.treasury.gov/about/offices/…
"foreign money played a large role in reviving his fortunes, in particular investment by wealthy people from Russia and the former Soviet republics."

I guess back then we called them "wealthy people from Russia"

“A very dirty martini, Russian vodka,” he tells the waiter. “A collusion martini.” forbes.com/sites/danalexa…
The backstory is worth a read. "Edwards notified FinCEN security of counterintelligence threats at Treasury and submitted additional whistleblower complaints concerning Treasury officials communicating with Russian officials on throwaway Gmail accounts." whistleblowersblog.org/whistleblower-…
It's not just Trump, there are thousands of oligarch investments in America. Some of them high profile. icij.org/investigations…
A lot of dirty offshore money ends up in onshore real estate deals...didn't Donald sell his Florida fixer upper in 2008 for $95 million to 10th richest Russian, Dmitry Rybolovlev aka "largest producer of potassium fertilizer in all of Russia" (Borat voice) nbcnews.com/business/real-…
When Russian stuff goes out of style I will miss those dubbed movies where the same guy reads the entire script in Russian and you can still hear the original soundtrack cuz they are too cheap to do a remix.

Wagner is desperately trying to recruit more cannon fodder. Lots of trickery as to who is who with radio coms, uniforms and deceit. Plenty of eyes in the sky and ambushes. We are entering the dark part of the conflict. Journos beware. Teams being tracked by cel. #DesperateTimes
Ukraine/"Other" sources are also feeding data into the system. gulagu-net.ru is getting leaked intel assessments reports and Christo Grozev of Bellingcat is putting up some translations here:
Hackers abound. From Global Hawk vacuuming up ELINT to freelancers helping Russians. The badly labeled "cyberwar" is real. It seems like everyone is listening, watching and then attacking. Electronically or kinetically. thehackernews.com/2022/03/ukrain…

Someone needs to translate this into Ukrainian. "The smartest loitering missile in the market"
Ukraine forces are already manufacturing and deploying the Warmate UAV
Poland works with Ukraine on deploying this system. wbgroup.pl/en/produkt/fly…

Here come the “Suicide Drones”. Manufacturers hate that term so we will call them “Single Serving Size” newsweek.com/switchblade-dr…
I am calling it. We are officially in 80's Afghanistan mode. 800 Stingers are on their way to Ukraine. We sent 1000 Stingers to the muj in Afghanistan in the 80s' and they estimated the Russians lost 1 aircraft per day. We are going to wipe out Russia's army in Ukraine. Image
Now remember all this cool gear required training by guys in plainclothes. My friends used to train Afghans in the dark arts in the 80's and the rush of Euro looking"volunteers" is going to make this a turkey shoot.coffeeordie.com/operation-cycl…

“Ziegler has also said on a rightwing podcast that he and others in Navarro’s office – seemingly referring to Trump White House aides Christopher Abbott and Hannah Robertson – started working on Navarro’s report about two weeks before the 2020 election” theguardian.com/us-news/2022/m…
Like a pilot working on multiple ways to sabotage and crash a flight before take off, Trump was desperately trying to crash our government …before the vote. My question is…for who?
Or “whom”. Was it just to ensure Donald and Prince Jared held onto the throne or were their Russian and Gulf backers terrified that their Abraham Accord would fall apart?

Every time Steve does a courthouse press conference on overthrowing the government I still can't believe"Derelique", "Boone's Farm", "Salvation Army" and "Bumfight" aren't getting in on this influencer action.
and who will defend Steve from outrageous fashion attacks from GQ, Esquire and the fashion media? White men have earned the right to wear cargo shorts and multiple dino-prep golf shirts. gq.com/story/steve-ba…
And which broke ass "billionaire" will Remora Steve attach himself to next? Things don't look good for Oligarch Yoda career sector. crainsnewyork.com/residential-re…

Margarine PegToes can help America understand all this complicated war stuff.
Falsely Gibberish is concerned that Putin will seize secret biolabs and start poisoning people.
