Feel the same way. Except I won't vote for either Biden or Trump. Their ages disqualify them for me if nothing els


So GOP_Tiger and SteelersBravesDawgs are to the LEFT of the radical No Colours, as they are both torn between voting for the most liberal administration in American history and not voting at all.

Disgraceful. They are okay with Trans Visability day taking precedence over Easter. They are okay with criminal illegals getting free plane tickets and housing and monthly stipends while our own citizens face 20% to 30% inflation. They are both okay with student loans being forgiven and just “tough luck” to all who repaid them. They embrace the Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan that left 13 American soldiers dead at the hands of Moslem terrorists.

INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 02 April 2024

It is likely that as a result of continued successful Ukrainian strikes on military locations, Russia has been forced to implement a number of decoy and deception techniques in an attempt to obfuscate Ukrainian targeting efforts.

At Kirovskoe Airfield on occupied Crimea there are decoy Russian fighter aircraft painted on the concrete. Such paintings have also been observed across at least 12 more Russian air bases, demonstrating the extent of Russian concern of future Ukrainian strikes and their ability to repel them.

However, Russian helicopters still regularly land on the painted decoy fighter silhouettes, completely
undermining the deception attempt. This also reveals the true order of battle or aircraft strength at these airbases, which Russia is likely trying to mask from Ukraine's intelligence picture.

Drone attack reportedly targets oil refinery in Russia's Tatarstan

by Dinara Khalilova and The Kyiv Independent news desk April 2, 2024 2:46 PM

During an April 2 attack on industrial facilities in Russia's Tatarstan, a drone targeted one of the country's largest oil refineries, located in the city of Nizhnekamsk, emergency services told Russian state-controlled news agency RIA Novosti.

Fossil fuels are the primary drivers of the Russian economy and the main source of revenue for the Kremlin's war machine. Despite Western sanctions, Russia still provides oil and gas to other countries around the world, primarily India and China.

Over the last weeks, Ukraine has carried out increasingly regular attacks on Russian oil refineries and other industrial facilities with long-range drones. An attack on March 17 targeted a dozen Russian oil refineries, reportedly amounting to about 12% of Russia's oil-processing capacity.

The attack on Tatarstan also hit a manufacturing facility for Shahed-type attack drones at the Alabuga special economic zone in the Yelabuga district, a source in Ukraine's military intelligence agency (HUR) told the Kyiv Independent.

The Taneco oil refining complex came under drone attack in the morning, which led to a fire that was extinguished in 20 minutes, the emergency services said.

I'm confused how you vote third party the last two elections, disagree with Biden's policies, think this presidency is an abject failure, and yet you're still considering voting for him?



Because I don't agree with coup attempts, love the Constitution and believe in freedom, and don't want insane idiots like SirWinston as cabinet secretaries.

The GOP is a post-truth party now, and I prefer to live in the real world. For someone like me who refuses to believe in fantasies about stolen elections, COVID conspiracies, globalist elites controlling the world, etc. ... there's no place for me in today's GOP.

The Left has long nurtured post-truth fantasy, but the GOP shift didn't really start until 2014 when the RNC denounced Common Core as a Communist plot, even though it was actually a conservative project to circumvent the teachers unions that always opposed educational standards. That was when I resigned my seat on the Louisiana Republican State Central Committee. But Donald Trump has been a uniquely evil figure in American history, and no healing of the GOP can begin until he's defeated.

Is that enough for you?

Come on now. You’re smarter than this. You know full well the so-called “bipartisan border bill” was an absolute joke and would have done nothing to secure the border.

The bipartisan bill was just like the infrastructure bill and the affordable care act. All a pact of lies designed to fool the American public that Congress is doing something. Their titles are meant to fool the people. They become huge boondoggles.

The border can be sealed right now if the government would just follow the law.

The democrats play these political tricks on the American people and they work because the people are gullible and ignorant. It’s tried and true.

I see zero refineries in this clip. There is a medium sized refinery in the area, 140,000 BPD which did receive some upgrades and expansion a decade ago to expand to approx 180,000 BPD. Not even close to the largest refineries in Russia, way smaller than say Exxon Baton Rouge.

There is a very large petrochemical complex there with ammonia production 1/6 of CF Industries in Donaldsonville, but CF's plant is the largest in the world.
