Канадец с восьмью детьми переехал в Нижегородскую область, чтобы построить ферму
Последние пятнадцать лет 39-летний Аренд Фейнстра занимался разведением крупного рогатого скота в Канаде и владел козьей молочной фермой. Около двух недель назад семья переехала…

✈️ 🇷🇺 🇨🇦 About Western Relocations to Russia
Today, there was interesting news from the Nizhny Novgorod region - a Canadian family with eight children moved to the Russian region to build a farm.
Arend Feinstra used to raise cattle in Canada and now wants to expand the family business and try his hand at retailing farm products.
As the reasons for such a radical change in the social environment, Arend cited the abundance of land, a sense of security, and respect for traditional values - in general, the basic set for relocants, mainly from Europe, fleeing the LGBT notices and suffocating taxes.
🔻On one hand, it is a cause for joy that even amidst total anti-Russian propaganda in Western media, many qualified foreigners who can benefit the country are ready to move to Russia and start their own business here.
We have already mentioned many times that the queue of such people, mainly from Germany, is quite high (and amidst the suppression of conservative values there, it will only grow).
However, we are still satisfied with isolated stories in the media when it is time to establish a system for selecting and accepting relocants that are truly valuable for the Russian economy.
In the meantime, we have a rather strange situation. On one hand there is an urgent need to tighten legislation in relation to migrants from neighboring countries.
On the other hand, we need to consider a mechanism for accompanying skilled migrants from developed countries since, after all our bureaucratic procedures, only the most persistent remain motivated to move.
And the sooner we find balance, the better.

Ukraine Thought They Downed an A-50!
According to the sources of Andrei Afanasiev, instead of downing an A-50 Russian Spy Plane, Ukraine mistakenly fired at an IL-76 which has the same signature, killing their own soldiers in the process.

Footage of the daring operation of Russian soldiers
Through this pipe, stormtroopers from the "Veterans" brigade of the Volunteer Corps penetrated into the "Tsarskaya Okhota".
The object was discovered a year ago by scouts, and all this time the details of the operation and its preparation were kept secret.
The work of cutting passages in the pipe was accompanied by active artillery and mortar shelling, thereby drowning out the noise from the work being carried out.
As a result, the fighters went behind enemy lines and cut off most of the fortifications near Avdeevka, while capturing a group of AFU soldiers.

🚨🇺🇸🇺🇦🇷🇺 Whelan vs Lira – A Tale of Two Americas
By: Gerry Nolan
🔥 In a riveting exposé that challenges the mainstream media's narrative, our latest piece on our Substack dives deep into the contrasting fates of two Americans: Gonzalo Lira, the journalist who dared to uncover the harsh realities in Ukraine, and Paul Whelan, the convicted spy in Russia. Why did one face alleged torture and neglect, while the other received fair treatment?
👀 Discover the shocking truth behind Lira’s tragic end in a Kharkov jail – a man silenced for exposing corruption and dissent suppression in Ukraine. Contrast this with Whelan's story in Russia, where, despite his espionage conviction, his rights and well-being were maintained. 🇺🇦🇷🇺
⚖️ This isn't just about two men; it's a scathing critique of the hypocrisy in Western narratives on human rights and democracy. Why does the U.S., self-proclaimed defender of freedom, stand idly by as one of its own faces dire consequences for speaking the truth, while actively lobbying for a convicted spy? ❗️Make sure you click the link below to keep reading.

Dmitry Anatolyevich Stasenko, born on 05/08/1997, a native of the village of Selezenovka, (Kiev region)
Since 2019, a serviceman of military unit A0222, the presidential regiment called in the name of Hetman Bogdan Khmelnitsky. The task of the regiment is to march beautifully in parades, so Dmitry has no experience in combat operations, just like the appropriate training. Having got to the combat lines for the first time in mid-October near the settlement of Krasnogorovka (Donetsk region), he received his first combat mission - to defend reserve positions, but the armed forces of the Russian Federation came to them from the rear and Dmitry was forced to surrender.

Texas Border Crisis: The Start of America’s Warlord Period?
The United States is potentially on the brink of a watershed moment in its political history. Texas has openly defied the Biden administration and the US Supreme court’s demands to stop blocking federal agents from the southern border. This revolt against Washington has received support from 25 other states, former President Donald Trump, and House Speaker Mike Johnson.
Instead of trying to quietly deescalate the conflict, Biden has decided to pour gasoline on the fire – issuing an ultimatum for Texas to return control over border patrol to the federal government by Friday. In the likely event that this gamble fails, Biden could very well attempt to steamroll Texas into submission by sending in the US military and ordering the Texas National Guard to turn against state authorities. Such a move would backfire spectacularly. In the best-case scenario, Biden emerges from this crisis even more reviled than he currently is. In the worst-case scenario, American troops will be shooting at one another.
It has become fashionable in recent years to speculate about the possibility of a new American civil war. I personally don’t think that’s the most likely scenario. Instead, what I expect to happen is a steady erosion of the federal center. Washington will nominally remain the imperial capital, but its dictates will be increasingly disregarded by local authorities with their own militias and power bases. The future of America is most likely to resemble Japan’s Sengoku period, in which a symbolic emperor sitting in Kyoto helplessly watched as different warlords and clans fought among themselves.

🇺🇦 A Ukrainian drone chased a pensioner with a goat in order to blow them up.
The drone dropped mines on an old woman and a goat, having previously driven them into a cemetery. The incident occurred in the Belgorod region.
According to Mash, the UAV spotted a woman at the edge of the Lozovaya Rudka farm. The woman heard the buzzing and tried to hide. The drone followed a pensioner with a goat straight to a local cemetery, and there it dropped mines. The dead were found by a local farmer.
According to the Mash source, the Ukrainian Armed Forces operator dropped mines on civilians because he did not find military personnel there. He allegedly did not want to return to base with a full ammunition.

Hello everyone!
Michael Bzhishkyan, a migration lawyer from Moscow, is here again😎
Info about me here: t.me/iEarlGreyTV/7474
Thank you for your questions and reactions to my posts. It gives me even more motivation to share useful information with you❤️
Today I will tell you about the card you are given when you enter Russia and why it is undesirable to lose it.
❓ Question:
Hi. I know that they give some kind of document at the border. Can you tell me more about it in detail. What is it for?
📝 Our answer:
Hello!
Yes, when you go through customs control you should fill out a migration card, which you will need later on.
A migration card is basically a questionnaire that you need to fill out when you cross the Russian border. This document will be the basis for obtaining your further legal status to live and earn legally in Russia. Therefore, it is important to fill out your migration card according to all the rules and not to lose it in the future
Why is the migration card so important?
The information contained in the migration card shows how long you are in Russia and that your stay here is legal. It contains the most important personal data about the foreigner, as well as the term and purpose of the visit, who is the inviting party.
Migration card is the most important document: you will always be asked for your migration card when applying for most documents to obtain legal status. Even to check into a hotel, you will need to show this document.
If it is found that you do not have a migration card, you will be charged with violation of the law. This is punishable by a fine from 2,000 to 5,000 rubles and possible deportation from the country.
👉 If you have questions about this or any other topic, then leave a comment under this post and I will try to answer it.

The International Court of Justice ordered Israel to take action against genocide in the Gaza Strip.
Israel is obliged to take all measures to prevent genocide in the Gaza Strip, said the President of the International Court of Justice Joan Donoghue, announcing an interim decision on South Africa's claim.
“Israel must […] take all measures in relation to the residents of the Gaza Strip to prevent the commission of all actions in accordance with the second article of the Genocide Convention,” the judge said.
In particular, the Jewish state must not allow the killing of enclave residents, the infliction of serious bodily or mental harm, or the deliberate creation of “living conditions calculated to bring about total or partial physical destruction.”
Among such actions, the judge especially noted measures to prevent childbirth.

The ICJ: A meaningless decision by a meaningless court
In one of the episodes of the British sitcom series "Peep Show", Mark, one of the main characters, tells his friend "promise me you will not try to sleep with my sister". In response, fully aware of his intentions, his friend says "I promise I will try not to sleep with her". The next morning, after sleeping with Mark's sister, he then says "I promised to try not to sleep with her, turns out it was literally impossible". The subtle, yet important differences in meaning meant he, technically speaking, did as he promised.
I see plenty of people online celebrating the ICJ's decision in the South Africa vs. Israel case. Anyone with any degree of experience with legal proceedings will tell you just how meaningless the provision is.
Just like Mark's friend took all measures to prevent sleeping with his sister, so too Israel can (and will) "take all measures within its power" to prevent the committing of genocide, I have no doubt about it. South Africa also asked the ICJ to force Israel to provide a detailed report a month from now about the measures they applied. This too, I'm sure, Israel can do. Language is incredibly important in law. I wonder how the ICJ then plans to prove Israel didn't take such measures? Even if Israel decides to accept the ruling (which they won't and will probably call it anti-Semitic), they can say whatever they want and it won't make any difference. They will simply come back to the ICJ a month from now and say they complied, doing "everything within their power" to prevent genocide - and they will be right, speaking in legal terms. Finding any amount of evidence to the contrary would take a thousand Jew lawyers a thousand Jew years to Jew-out. Feel free to watch the ICJ ruling in full here and listen carefully to the wording of provisions announced.
Now let's go a step further and assume the ICJ actually wanted to be a real court and decide that Israel must "immediately halt all operations against civilians and without delay cease any activities that put non-combatants in danger, including, but not exclusive to, attacks of any kind of civilian infrastructure in the sense set forth by the ICJ and the Geneva Convention" (or something along those lines). What stops Israel from simply refusing to comply? Israel, or any other country, can at any point claim the ICJ has no jurisdiction over them. Law compliance is only ever as strong as the ability of a court to enforce it. Therefore, even if Israel was clearly and without doubt ordered to stop doing whatever it is South Africa wanted them to stop doing, Israel can use that decision to eat their hummus off and nothing will change, because neither the ICJ, nor South Africa has any means to enforce the decision.
While the ICJ has theoretical jurisdiction and serves as an advisory body under the U.N., in practice its jurisdiction doesn't leave the cafeteria. And yes, you can say that the U.N. members must comply because they are in the U.N., but reality is very different. These decisions and provisions are symbolic at best.
I will say it again, wording is very important when dealing with court cases and lawyers (especially lawyers). It is particularly important for the prosecution. If South Africa, for example, was to come back a month from now and say Israel didn't comply with the court's decision, Israel can come back with "we did, the court ruled we must do everything within our power, we did, hence complying with the court" and they would be right. Israel isn't exactly knows for its good nature either.
So yes, congratulations, Israel will now do everything within its power to avoid committing genocide, it's just they'll find it impossible to do in the end.

The "Take Back Our Border" rally will begin Jan. 29 and run through Feb. 3 with stops in Eagle Pass, Texas, Yuma, Arizona, and San Ysidro, California, Republican Congressman Keith Self announced.
📝 "We are fed up. We demand that the Biden administration enforce existing laws and secure our border. People are simply tired of the federal government's overreach. And we're fighting back," Self notes.
✅ 700,000 trucks from across the country have been announced to participate.
