Traditional media is clearly on its last legs. Forwarded from Rise on Telegram:
I took a month's free subnoscription to the Telegraph to read one specific article. Which, it turned out, had been deleted from the site (but captured on the wayback machine, thankfully).
I then went to close the account down.
Firstly I was presented with a £14.99 a month offer for 12 months.
After declining, I was then presented with £18 a year offer (a 90% discount)
After declining again, I was finally presented with an offer of £0.75 for 4 months (a whopping 98.75% discount or the original offer, which I believe was already less than rate card.)
Desperate times on the Street of Shame.
Love x

Joe Biden - July, 2021: "You're not going to get Covid if you have these vaccinations."
Since making this statement, fully vaccinated Jill Biden has now tested positive for Covid three times and Joe Biden has gotten it twice.
This what real misinformation looks like...

❗️🇷🇺💥🇬🇧🏴☠️🇺🇦 About the destruction of the first British Challenger 2 tank, you need to understand the following.
▪️Firstly, the main problem of these tanks was their number. The vehicles are used to a limited extent and, apparently, as part of mixed armored groups, where each "British" is covered by Soviet T-64BV tanks. The command of the 82nd Airborne Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine does not risk releasing Western vehicles alone, but there is no benefit from cover.
▪️Secondly, Challenger 2 tanks do not demonstrate unique survivability and combat effectiveness on the battlefield. The vehicles burn in the same way as the Leopard 2 tanks. From this we can conclude that the American M1A1 on the battlefield will face the same fate.
▪️Thirdly, the dispatch of the British tanks of the 82nd Airborne Brigade into battle speaks of the use of all available APU in this section of the reserves. If British tanks (and Western heavy armored vehicles in general) are destroyed, and the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine does not bring tangible territorial results, then the question of the advisability of foreign supplies of such weapons to Ukraine will inevitably arise.
In addition, it is noteworthy that the tank (as well as escort vehicles) was destroyed by artillery, and not by other tanks in a contact battle. This once again confirms the fallacy of the choice of the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It was assumed that this technique would be used as the main means of striking and breaking through the defense, but, apparently, this scheme failed somewhere at the very beginning.

In a potential signal of shifting attitudes on how the war in Ukraine is covered in the legacy media, the New York Times is starting to slowly acknowledge the endemic corruption that has been a defining feature of the former Soviet state as officials have admitted that money for military contracts has “vanished”.

The #BantheADL hashtag campaign has succeeded in prompting Elon Musk to publicly affirm the need for the ADL to be reined in. If he bans it from Twitter, then Twitter will be cancelled. If he sues it, Elon Musk will be cancelled. But whatever happens, nationalists win, especially in the long term.
This article is free to all.
Musk now has a decision to make—he needs to shit or get off the pot. On the one side, he has his billions of dollars to comfort him at night; on the other, he has a chance for true immortality, the chance to make his mark on history in a way that no one else has in almost a century. Which will he choose? What kind of stuff is he made of?

North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un plans to visit Russia in September to meet with Putin and discuss the supply of weapons to Moscow, writes The New York Times with reference to US officials.
"Putin wants to convince Kim to send artillery shells and anti-tank missiles to Russia, and Kim would like Russia to supply North Korea with advanced satellite technology and nuclear submarines," the publication writes.
In addition, they said, Kim would like to receive food assistance.
