There's probably going to be ongoing attempts to be less reliant on the US while Trump is going on about needing Greenland and the like. His last odd 'truth' about it was six hours ago https://truthsocial.com/

I don't think attacking the Baltics would stop Europe funding Ukraine. If anything it would make them get more involved. But at least Putin could say he was defeated by NATO rather than defeated by a peaceful agricultural country a qua

>The antidote is not more content. It is more courage – the courage to insist that objective reality exists, that evidence matters, and that some things are simply true. I think that is maybe a little naive. In a world where Russia spend

There are over 190 countries around the world provoking Russia by having their own nationality and not giving special privilege to Russia. I guess it'll just have to go killing and invading those people too as they are obviously nazis

>2018 Petrov & Boshirov... too scared to say it out loud There was a lot of saying out loud on that one and it's hard to figure cause and effect on consequences but the UK has sent a lot of missiles and drones to Ukraine.

Aw - didn't work for me although the top result was the Techcrunch story so that's kind of broken. Had to scroll about one screen for the definition.

Technically, the site doesn't show profits, it shows something like cash flow excluding investment flows, or has more money been spent than has come back in from customers. This will always be negative for any new business as you are e

I read The Art of the Deal years ago, before I'd really heard of Trump and thought this is cool. I was disappointed to find later on it was ghost written. If only the real Trump was more like the one in the book.
