Bold assumption. They could have easily been planning to return and secure their bodies, or in some situations were simply unable to do so because it would be too dangerous.

And then be amazed as suddenly the FBI and the rest of federal law enforcement kick the door in of that government and depose them?

Its forcing the problem onto liberal states because they are the ones forcing Texas et al from policing the border

It is and isn't. This was from Ukraine's latest commercial in order to promote more patriotism and bravery against the Russians, while inducing fear in the Russians (or at least...that was their goal...I personally think it just makes them look like ISIS).

So the vid is definitely real, but no one was actually killed/hurt during its production I hope

In case you haven't noticed, Ukraine is an active warzone. Civilian supply lines are effectively fucked, this means significantly disrupted food deliveries to stores...for what should be fairly obvious reasons. Thus, while the Russian's held the town they provided rations and supplies to those that lived in the town, and there is overwhelming evidence that supports this.

I have seen reports of Russian troops stealing food from stores, I have seen reports of Ukrainian troops stealing food from stores (both levelling the accusations are Ukrainian), I am unsure who is telling the truth or if both are telling the truth. Moreover that doesn't change the fact that the crux of the problem is that Ukraine is literally at war.

Its been above freezing in Bucha (and above refrigeration temperature too) for more than a week now, the hell are you talking about? Additionally, you should see signs of rigor mortis on bodies greater than 24 hours old, these bodies show no signs of that.

Unless somehow the Russian's snuck in a bunch of troops, in the presently militarily occupied by Ukrainian forces Bucha, and somehow managed to shoot a bunch of civilians without also attracting attention from the Ukrainian military....I don't buy it.

Those bodies look far too fresh for the Russians to have killed them, especially since they left days prior

What do you think they are passing out to people? They are giving out emergency ration kits, which are being distributed by the army (and were probably packaged by the army)...is it really so strange to think they would be labeled by country of origin and by whom is responsible for the packaging and/or distribution?

If the dollar fails, remember that the banks have a significant amount of other assets, such as gold available to them. It will probably hurt them, but...not as much as it would hurt everyone else.

Racing is one of those sports that are fun to do, not so much watch (at least in my opinion). When you are doing it you have the adrenaline from the speed, the close calls, the nail-biting turns etc. When you are watching it...well...unless you are very very good at imagining yourself as being in someone else's place you will get none of these feelings.

Agreed, plus reservations exist and it sounds like Tim didn't have one

Honestly I read this as just him venting.

Probably not the best place to do it, but hey...its probably better than bottling it up

Honestly this. Russia has every reason to declare them an enemy of the state

Kinda...except its by the Chinese and I trust them even less than mastercard/visa, and that doesn't mean I trust them either

This. Imagine having nuclear weapons stationed in your country that you have no control over.

Throwing money at the problem doesn't do anything to fix it. If they choose to hire people based off of anything other than merit, then they are effectively pissing that money away, and as far as I've seen that is all they are doing

Honestly I think they are doing this to try to distract from the communist takeover of canada.
