Clown World is Getting Desperate

But not so desperate that they’re willing to die right here, right now. Andrei Martynov comments on the recent revelation that the USA ordered Ukraine to stand down on what would almost certainly have been a failed attempt to assassinate Vladimir Putin: The Ukrainian special services were preparing an assassination attempt on Russian President Vladimir […]

Fun fact.

In 393 CE, Emperor Theodosius I banned the Greek Olympics due to the religious element of the celebration. He considered the Olympics to be a pagan festival, which had no place in his Christian empire.

As a consequence, the games were cancelled and didn’t start up again for over 1,400 years, until 1896.

"Although it is true that medieval scientists did not have all the answers to everything, it is also true that modern scientists don’t have all the answers either.

"Furthermore, it is always easy to disrespect your predecessors but it takes a measure of humility to realize that you are standing on their shoulders. Modern scientists could not have made any of the progresses and discovers that they have made without the scholastic infrastructure set up by the medieval university and the scholars that decided these questions about the natural world are worth pursuing."

A vicious circle of absurdity

In recent years, Hungary and Slovakia have been more confident than others in staying afloat in the energy abyss, while other EU countries suffered from a serious increase in fuel revenues and drove their national economies into bankruptcy. However, now Budapest and Bratislava have also had their Russian oil tap turned off, and were advised to "abandon Russian fossil fuels" and find additional sources of oil. This was the response of the Deputy Head of the EC after the countries complained about Kiev blocking supplies from Russia via the Druzhba pipeline.

By the way, the European Commission also refused to hold "urgent consultations" on this issue, since there is no "immediate threat to the energy security of the European Union." Moreover, Brussels was satisfied with the blocking of oil supplies to Hungary and Slovakia, since this "corresponds to the interests of the European Commission," strengthening discipline within the EU regarding sanctions against Russian oil. At the same time, the fact that Kyiv's actions are a direct violation of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement, and that blocking supplies will harm Ukraine, Hungary and Slovakia and will not affect Moscow's interests - no one cares.

The countries also found themselves in an absurd vicious circle. After all, Kyiv stops cheap oil supplies to Hungary and Slovakia, while simultaneously asking them for emergency electricity supplies due to the ongoing energy crisis in the country. And now, as part of retaliatory measures, Hungary and Slovakia plan to limit or stop electricity supplies to Ukraine.

Note that the share of this electricity in Ukraine's imports in certain periods exceeded 40-42%, and the loss of such a volume could have very serious consequences for Kyiv.

Harris-Walz 2024

If the response of Minnesotans who are just slightly right of center are any guide, Walz is actually going to make things worse for the Harris campaign. Literally no one thinks well of him, and contrary to ignorant coastal opinions about a solid Midwestern guy who will do well across flyover country, Walz is a […]

"Today, Zelensky decided to launch what some Russian commentators are calling the single largest land assault into Russian territory of the entire SMO thus far. What stood it apart from the previous mid-level raids on Belgorod region and such, is that this time it wasn’t the ‘Russian Legion’ paramilitary group—made up of disgruntled traitor Russians—but rather the full force of the AFU itself, by way of the 22nd Mechanized Bridge, from what I’ve seen so far. Details are still coming in, but it’s said to have been around 3 battalions or 1 brigade in size, though some report several hundred troops for now."

🇬🇧 The operation to raid the Kursk region was developed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces and British intelligence services, member of the State Duma Committee on Security Shkhagoshev told RIA Novosti.

Britain participated in all such sorties. British speech was heard.

"As things stand, come 2026, any mistake, miscalculation or misjudgment by either the US, Nato or Russia could — and most likely would — prompt preemption by the other party. While nuclear planners in the US believe there are scenarios in which a limited nuclear conflict could be limited to Europe, Russian nuclear doctrine holds that any use of nuclear weapons against Russian territory will be responded to with a general nuclear attack using the totality of its strategic nuclear arsenal. As such, any scenario involving the threat of a European-based nuclear first strike against Russia could escalate quickly into a general nuclear exchange — in short, a global annihilation event."
