How long before the promised jets arrive? Playing defense all the time is time and resource consuming.

Ukraine seems to be doing pretty good with the drones though.

Last I heard the F16s are scheduled for spring sometime.  But may already be there in tiny numbers.

Ammo is the issue right now.

Maybe she should donate some of her own money instead of stealing from the labor of others and creating an oppressive government in the process.

"..The #Biden Administration Has Reached #Conservation Records in 2023 https://www.americanprogress.org/article/the-biden-administration-has-reached-conservation-records-in-2023/

"After 3 years in office, it is clear that the #BidenAdministration is safeguarding #PublicLands at a record rate... This #progress is seen most clearly through numerous new monument designations and other protections as well as historic funding that has been channeled to local, #Tribal, state, and national #ConservationPrograms... The Biden administration has successfully moved from talk to action".."

"..It's only called "lobbying" in the United States region of the Americas. If it's from anywhere else it's just plain old sparkling bribery.."

"..Dr. Maddkap, Werepsychologist

So here’s what happened. The startup I was working for got fucked by the main investor. With no warning, he fired the whole dev team, took the product, and sold the company - which meant more money for him because he sold the intellectual capital without all the salaries of R&D (my team) and IT.

We all got shitcanned 3 days before launch, when we should have been celebrating.

Oh and to pump his profits more, he fucked us on severance.

This guy has a net worth of over $100 million. It would have cost him about $100,000 to take care of the team after cutting them.

So yeah. What a week.."

Israel should have to pay for every dime of the rebuilding.


"..Palestinians return to a destroyed Gaza City after Israeli forces withdrawal

Palestinians move along a destroyed street in the Remal neighbourhood.."

It is not just him, russia has starved a large number of Ukrainian POWS.

Not surprised - It sounded like he died if you Google his name and pull up the full article. There is a longer one written in Ukrainian - it's possible the translation loses something.

I was writing this 1 1/2 hours ago and my Mom called.

Did you ever see Brazil? One of my favorite all time movies. Terry Gilliam wrote and directed of Monty Python fame.
