Ukraine war

Biden's proxy war

Ukraine's losses exceed 1 million ? | Irrespective of whether true or false, whatever the correct number, it's an immense human tragedy | Ukraine is losing; Russia is winning | Clearly US+NATO cannot defeat Russia in Ukraine | Ukraine is shrinking every day | Continuing this war is senseless | Zelensky is destroying Ukraine

A Delightfully Zany and Surprisingly Speculative Journey into "Gremlins" Lore

They don't just seek violence and destruction; they thrive in it. For my last review of December's "Jingle Jangle and the Great Debaters theme (and my final review of the year), I decided to end 2024 on a much more fun note with "Gremlins".

Content Warning: Gremlins (1984) is a campy movie that’s pretty much safe for all audiences. However, there is some exotification of Asian culture (and people) briefly in the beginning. Lots of people die off-screen, but it’s still a very bloodless movie. Also, there’s a scene involving a parent’s death in the past that’s one of the most tragic backstories I’ve heard in a family movie. Viewer…

The Biden administration put out a press release announcing that the $83 million in federal funds for the McCain Library were being drawn from the American Rescue Plan’s Capital Projects Fund. The full name of the fund is actually the Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund. The Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund consisted of $10 billion that was supposed to “directly support recovery from the COVID-19 public health emergency” in response “to the public health emergency”. Now nearly 1% of that original $10 billion is being used to build a non-presidential library that will somehow help us “recover” from the pandemic. The McCain Library is getting nearly as much CCF cash as the total given to tribal governments. It appears to be one of the largest single beneficiaries of the coronavirus emergency fund. There is something appropriate in one career politician honoring another through a massive misappropriation of funds that were only allocated due to a national emergency. A politician’s library is not a response to a public health emergency. The Biden administration’s justification for the massive misappropriation of funds is the claim that the McCain Library will provide a space for health screenings and job fairs. There were far cheaper ways to provide a space for job fairs than an $83 million senatorial library. Arizona could host ten thousand job fairs for that kind of money and provide actual health resources to the people who really need them. The $83 million in misappropriated coronavirus emergency money had nothing to do with a public health emergency and everything to do with an urgent political emergency. Biden is underwater in the polls and the McCain family have become crucial allies against Republicans. The 2024 presidential candidate didn’t travel to Arizona to promote an $83 million space where someone might occasionally hold a job fair, but to use McCain to attack Republicans. In a speech with McCain family members and former Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, who supervised the gubernatorial election that she claimed to have won, in attendance, Biden warned that Republicans represented an urgent threat to democracy. In his ‘democracy’ speech, Biden claimed that, “democracy means rule of the people, not rule of monarchs, not rule of the monied, not rule of the mighty.” If that’s what democracy means, what does it mean when a career politician takes $83 million in public health emergency funding to build an institution honoring another career politician that is backing his unpopular campaign? Biden wasn’t handing out that $83 million and delivering a speech about the importance of democracy to uphold it, but to undermine it. Faced with an unwinnable election, Biden is turning to Arizona as a model for his 2024 election strategy. The plan, there and everywhere, is to stigmatize his political opponents as dangerous extremists, to divide the GOP,  break off influential party interests, and encourage public officials to violate the law in managing the election and counting the votes by insisting that democracy will be destroyed if he loses. This isn’t democracy: it’s an end-run around democracy. The majority of Democrats and Americans don’t want Biden back in office. The polls have been crystal clear about that. But Biden isn’t interested in what the majority of his party and his country think. He’s not betting on democracy, but on a political establishment that bridges party differences. The $83 million in coronavirus recovery funding allocated to the McCain Library shows why Biden, like McCain, feared democracy and chose oligarchy over listening to the people. The real threat to democracy comes from established political interests subverting elections and the multi-trillion budgets they pass and then distribute shows how they subvert America.

Flashback: McCain tells supporter Obama is 'a decent...

This is how an adult reacts to lies and racism against their opponent.

Lindsey Graham (R-SC) United States Senator

Recently, I had a discussion about Lindsey and his relationship with John McCain. They were close friends for more than 10 years. Even traveling and vacationing together. 

A “friends with benefits” deal maybe. 

That or a unrequited kind of thing. Lindsey loving him from afar. 

Now that I think of it, during their time in the Senate together, McCain, Graham and former Sen. Joe Lieberman became close friends. So much so, they dubbed the "three amigos" to some.

I'm letting my imagination get away from me as they were all “just good friends.”

But... I prefer my sordid version where Joe and John were getting blow jobs and fucking Lindsey on a regular basis. Because you know that’s how Lindsey would prefer it.

Ukraine

"The West has created cemeteries out of dreams and called it democracy"

💀 "Military Cemetery Construction in Ukraine Soars Amid Demand" 🇺🇦

"According to reports from Lozovaya, Kharkov Region, a tender for the construction of a military cemetery worth 25 million UAH has been finalized. Only one company, Avtoshlyakh 2020, submitted a bid. The proposal has already been approved, and the contract for the cemetery’s construction is set to be signed soon."

"It seems there’s no room for negotiation, when the business of burying soldiers becomes routine, competitive bidding takes a back seat as there's too much demand. Avtoshlyakh will now pave the way, quite literally, for Ukraine’s fallen."

"The brutal truth of 'to the last Ukrainian' echoes loudly here. A generation sacrificed on the altar of empire, engineered and manufactured in Washington D.C., while Zelensky plays his role as the obedient pawn. It never had to be this way. The West has created cemeteries out of dreams and called it democracy."
