Paranoid Putin’s war is unravelling



Battlefield data analyzed by The Telegraph suggest the Kremlin’s war machine is under serious strain.

After years of grinding, attritional offensives and a high number of casualties, Russia’s battlefield momentum has slowed sharply in recent months. In some sectors, it is reversing altogether.

In April, Russian forces suffered a net territorial loss in Ukraine, the first such setback since Ukraine’s incursion into Kursk in 2024, according to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

The Washington-based think tank assessed that Moscow lost control of 46 square miles over the month...

But now you are posting fake stories

Please explain what part of the "story" I posted and quoted in my OP is "fake."

FYI, there have been several really good, thought provoking posts in this thread about the 5 amendments, especially the posts discussing the inventory tax amendment.

I learned something about that amendment which I had not considered before I started this thread. And for that I am grateful to those posters. :bow:

It's a shame your deep-seated paranoia keeps you from adding anything intelligent to this discussion.

Thank you!!

and you are acting extremely defensive.

Pot meet kettle...

While I 100% agree with Pres Trump's position about stopping large hedge funds and other mega corporations from buying single family residences en masse, I don't like using Executive Orders to create laws bypassing congress.

To me that opens the door for the next Barry Obama or Joe Biden to do the same thing.

Please quote anything I've posted in this thread which indicates I am "adamantly opposed to a group of people being able to address the educational opportunities for their children..."

If you can't do that it just proves my aforementioned statement about your extreme paranoia problem. :popcorn:

Is this another passive aggressive post meant to nudge the electorate in a certain direction?

Not really.

But I do lay awake most nights trying to think of new & creative ways to exacerbate (Stop giggling, Joey!) your chronic paranoia.

Mission accomplished!! :nana:

if the polling places aren’t being monitored it does no good. This is where our system is vulnerable and really only in certain voting precincts.

Early voting is not held at the regular voting precincts, at least in EBR.

For example, in East Baton Rouge Parish there are only 5 locations for early voting:

1) MOTOR VEHICLE BLDG
BAKER

2) FIRE STATION BLDG
11010 COURSEY BLVD
BATON ROUGE

3) LOUISIANA STATE ARCHIVES BLDG
3851 ESSEN LANE
BATON ROUGE

4) CENTRAL BRANCH LIBRARY
11260 JOOR ROAD
BATON ROUGE

5) BATON ROUGE CITY HALL
BATON ROUGE

When I vote early I use the State Archives Building on Essen Lane and it appears to me the voter identification process is strict.

You have to show your voter ID at the door of the building before you can even enter the room where the voting machines are.

Then when you approach the line of voting machines a person again asks for your ID card and then he walks you to the voting machine for your precinct.

In Orleans Parish there are only 4 early voting locations.
