The United States is not worried about debt. We just gave 300 billion to dumb-arse kids who don't know what a promissory note is and their obligations to pay the money back

Great idea. If we chip in among thread regulars, it would probably cost us no more than a quarter each in OML-geld.

FWIW, with your rants about NUCLEAR WAR, I was offered some old butane tanks to buy. These are uncharacteristically made from manganese steel which is harder. 8 each 11'6" diameter by 65 feet long. Since you know so much about everything, you could make a nice survival shelter of these with plenty of storage.
I posted it on the Politard board, but those incels don't have any money.

Nothing new in the UK, a blocking high made them freeze last winter. They went to wind and solar, along with wood pellets in dry bulk carriers from Baton Rouge and elsewhere

What do each of those weigh and what would they sell for?

Do you dummies think Europe is going to stand for this for much longer just so you warmongers can continue your drunken LARP? You’re an idiot if you don’t think this is going to come to a major end or at least massive change once winter hits. I know y’all are having fun with this, but y’all are in for such a rude awakening.
Europe is not going to stand for it. That is why Europe is delaying the shutdown of nuclear power plants, buying LNG, and using more coal. Are you stupid enough to think that they would just go back to buying Russian gas like they did before? Europe has learned the hard way why it should not be at Russia's mercy. Also Ukraine can keep fighting if western Europe backs out because very little aid has actually come from western europe. It is mostly eastern and central europe as well as the USA that is helping Ukraine.

Why so angry that Russia isn't rolling over Ukriane?

I know you morons simply treat this as if this were a game of World of Warcraft and get pissed when anyone interrupts your little fantasy war game, but enough is enough. Not one more fricking penny to Ukraine, especially when Europe is refusing to pay for it.
1. Eastern and central Europe are helping. It is western Europe mainly Germany, France, and Italy that are not.
2. Only the US and the UK signed the treaty to help Ukraine if their territorial integrity was threatened. So we are bound to help Ukraine while Germany, France, and Italy are not.
3. The tax dollars that you have paid probably would not even afford the aviation fuel for one C-17 to taxi to the runway and take off.

Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance
did we not do that? again doesnt say we have to give any certain amount.
I posted some opinions from legal scholars a few weeks and several hundred pages ago. Since the Budapest Memorandum is written in international legalese there is no one interpretation about how much aide we are suppose to give. Some international legal scholars believe that we are just suppose to raise the issue at the UNSC. Some believe that the USA and the UK are supposed to give Ukraine any aid it asks for including deploying forces to aid Ukraine. However, most believe that it calls for the USA and the UK do more than just raise the issue at the UNSC but we are not bound to give Ukraine anything they ask for. Most legal scholars as well as the Clinton, GWB, Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations have interpreted the Budapest Memorandum to say that we are bound to give Ukraine any aid which the State Department and DOD determine to be reasonable given the threat Ukraine faces. Which is what the current administration is doing. It is giving Ukraine aid but not all that it has asked for. For example, we did not use the USAF to enforce a no fly zone over Ukraine like Ukraine asked us to do back in March. As an independent voter who is not a neo-warmonger like OMLandshark claims, I think that is the sensible path. If Ukraine had refused to fight like Afghanistan did then I would not want to support them, but since they are fighting and taking down an American rival without the USA having to spend blood to do it then I am all for supporting them as we have. I would go a step farther though and would have sold them F16s and Patriot missile systems and started training their ppl on how to use them back in March.

Here's the daily roundup from Malcontent News:
Bakhmut
Private Military Company Wagner Group, supported by terrorist elements of the Imperial Legion, fought positional battles near Soledar and Bakhmutske. Lacking armor support, they were unsuccessful.
In the Svitlodarsk bulge, Russian forces fought positional battles south and east of Kodema but did not improve the tactical situation. There were reports of fighting around the train station at Mayorsk.
Southwest Donetsk – Zaporizhia
The 1st Army Corps of the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) lost control of parts of Pisky. Separatist troops attempted to push Ukrainian forces out of their positions in the direction of Pervomaiske but were unsuccessful.
Russian forces tried to advance on Nevelske using main battle tanks and infantry fighting vehicles with inadequate light infantry support. After suffering losses, separatist troops had to retreat.
Unable to advance further into Marinka, Russian forces attempted to flank Ukrainian positions but failed to advance into Pobieda.
On the Donetsk-Zaporizhia administrative border, Russian forces attempted to advance on Pavlivka and continued to press toward Velyka Novosilka but did not move the line of conflict.
Izyum
Russian forces attempted to advance on Dolyna. Due to diminishing artillery support, lack of fire control, and the advance conducted mainly by conscripts and unskilled forces, the attack was unsuccessful. There was an attempted advance in the direction of Nova Dmytrivka by a small Russian force, but they were sent back to Sherwood Forest.
Kherson
Ukraine struck the Kakhovka Bridge again with rockets fired by HIMARS. The bridge was severely damaged. The Antonovsky Bridge was attacked twice overnight. Its condition is unknown.
Several sources reported that Russian airborne troops (VDV) attempted to advance north from Oleksandrivka [Kherson] but could not traverse the open fields.
Russian troops tried to expand their area of control north of Blahodatne [Mykolaiv]. Due to the canal north of the town, only a small force could advance through a chokepoint and suffered heavy losses.
Russian forces attempted to break through Ukrainian lines near Arkhanhelske, trying to advance in the direction of Mykolaivka [Kherson] and were unsuccessful.
Dnipropetrovsk
The situation at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant is unchanged, with rhetoric and accusations continuing by both belligerents.
In a stunning news report on August 24, Russian state media released a video that shows Russian BTR-80 infantry fighting vehicles within the power plant compound by Reactor 2. Russian occupiers claim they arrested two Ukrainian spies working for Energoatom. Leaders of the military garrison at the power plant allege that the duo documented military troop movements and equipment located at the plant and was sharing the information with Ukrainian officials.
Nikopol and Marhanets were shelled again by rockets fired by MLRS from across the Dnipro River. The attack was much smaller than at the start of the month, with 11 Grad rockets damaging homes.
Russian missiles struck the railway station in Chaplyne, which was full of civilians at the time The attack killed 25 and wounded 31. Just before midnight and about 20 kilometers away, Russian missiles crashed into the town of Velykomykhailivka, wounding eight as they slept in their homes.
Sumy and Chernihiv
Dmytro Zhyvytskyi, Sumy Oblast Administrative and Military Governor, reported that Russian forces shelled the settlements of Esman, Znob-Novhorod, Krasnopillia, and Bilopillia.
Kyiv
Two Russian missiles struck the Vyshhorod area north of Kyiv just after midnight. There were no reports of injuries.
Poltava
At least one Calibr cruise missile launched by the Black Sea fleet slammed into the ground near Myrhorod in the Poltava oblast. The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed they hit the Ukrainian air force base outside of the city, but video after the attack showed the missile successfully carved out a six-meter-deep crater in the middle of a dirt road.
Khmelnytskyi
Russian cruise missiles landed in Shepetivka, according to Serhiy Gamaly, Khmelnytskyi Oblast Administrative and Military Governor. Damage was reported to “critical infrastructure,” and three people were wounded.
Daily Assessment
1. Unfortunately, our assessment that there would be punitive strikes on civilians and civilian infrastructure on Independence Day was accurate, with 25 people killed and 47 hospitalized in missile attacks across Ukraine.
2. We anticipate more attacks on civilians, civilian infrastructure, and government decision-making centers over the next 24 to 72 hours.
3. The Russian military within Ukraine has become combat ineffective theaterwide, with ground attacks becoming smaller along the entire 2,450-kilometer-long front.

Is anyone else surprised we haven't seen any widespread effects of the Russia cyber attacks that are certainly going full tilt aimed at the US and others right now?
Does anyone have any industry poop regarding upticks coming out of Russia since we started giving aid?
