Not sure of how besides it maybe being on YouTube, but I saw something earlier clocking it at 4AM EST, so that would put you at 3 AM CST.

I’ll be long asleep by then lol.

Are there specific channels on YouTube for these speeches? Not just bits and pieces but the entire speech?

I never saw his full partial mobilization speech and of course, the problem is finding it translated. There was one Twitter account that did real time translated tweets with bullet points during that speech, I am not sure but it may have been Anton Gerashchenko.

The machine gun is fitted with a quick-change barrel attached to the receiver by a wedge latch. The barrel should be cooled or replaced after 100 shots ft can be changed without removing the machine gun from a tripod or a mount. There is a handle on the barrel or carrying the machine gun and easy replacement of the barrel.


From: Gunrf - NSV 12.7 Large Cal Machine Gun.

Sounds like it isn't hard so I would say poor training or an intense firefight which didn't give them the chance to do one or let the alternate barrel cool if they did.

Pretty big deal for a few reasons, first and foremost because it’s Japan who has been almost exclusively defensive military philosophy only since 1945. For reference Japan’s total defense budget is $55 billion, a 26% increase from prior years budget, so this is 9% of their defense budget.

Also for reference, Germany contributed $2.3 billion to Ukraine in 2022.

Biden had to ask Putin for permission to visit Ukraine.

I’m going to watch Putin declare WWIII live while eating breakfast, drinking a Bloody Mary and having my makeup done for Zulu? What a time to be alive.

You’re right. I’m sorry. Our president was so brave walking the streets as the air raid sirens were going off. Henry V is rolling in his grave because of jealousy.

The Japanese are not stupid. It’s as obvious to them as it is to those not indoctrinated into the cult of Zelensky that the US is escalating this proxy war at every opportunity. This is defensive spending for them. They’re hoping you fricking idiots don’t start WW3 with your LARP.

Were there actually raids to set off the sirens or did Ukraine do it to make Biden look better?

If you understand Russian, then have at it, on a VPN to get around any censorship. Otherwise there will be translations later

If Russian aircraft were detected airborne then they go off.

If anyone wants to watch live you can watch it on Russia 1 at the link below. The channel guide says Putin comes on at noon Moscow time which is 3 AM Central.

Russian TV

These should provide English translations if interested in approx 5 mins

RT Putins address

Ruptly Putins address

Also there is reported shelling from artillery located in Belarus on Ukrainian positions, interesting timing.

I tried to listen. It was a bunch of rambling nonsense about how the Ukrainians are Nazis and the west is ganging up on poor little Russia. If he says anything noteworthy I'll read about it tomorrow.
