Who had a shadow fleet tanker sinking at Ust Luga alongside the dock on their bingo card? 164,000 DWT thus crude oil capacity around 1 million barrels

If the US churned out tanks like the Russians supposedly do, wouldn't that be supporting the MIC which is anathema to the anti-Ukraine folks?

Quite the condundrum

This could be why Russia outproduces all of NATO. Size of famed Uralvagonzavod plant in Nizhny Tagil which produces T-72s compared to the Abrams plant:


I think this points more toward a manufacturing flaw on the Russian side than it does a problem with the US side. Assuming the Russian plant is focused on volume, build quality is likely fairly low (and we know Russian build quality isn't highly touted to begin with). You don't need a ton of separate manufacturing lines if your manufacturing lines are optimized.

The only thing that graphic tells me is that the US tank has either a design advantage or manufacturing advantage, if not both.

The advantage on the Russian side is that one line going down doesn't impact the process much, but If I were a betting man I'd say they have lines going down at a substantially higher rate than the US factories do.

The most strange thing about the USAID melts is that Trump has said himself the concept of USAID is a good idea... the execution of that concept since the time JFK created it is the issue. Its not doing what its supposed to do.

Truth.

Keith Olbermann (formerly known as Leon aka Lee B), Bill Kristol (aka GOP Tiger) and the Ukrainian Minister of Propaganda Cypher have been ranting and melting for days.

3 ad hominems in one sentence. Convincing argument.

Speaking of ranting and melting, were you the one that promised to derail the thread by posting all instances of USAID corruption?

Let me say that your efforts as Minister of Ukrainian Propaganda are no match to your Russian counterpart JB. The loss of USAID has really hurt you and your efforts.

I would guess they were grants to pay that stuff for the Ukrainian government.


To me it looks like aggregate sums of direct SS payments to expats living in Ukraine For example "aggregate retirement insurance benefits"

If I'm right, the numbers displayed would roughly correspond to a monthly payout for approximately 100 to 200 recipients.

I’m part of the pro Ukranian crowd, and I want to keep supporting Ukraine as long as they are willing to fight for their freedom from Russian domination.

The pro-USAID bros like cypher, CitizenK and GOP_Tiger are still in the denial stage. They have not yet made it to the acceptance stage.
