Russian President Vladimir Putin has reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest following months of speculation over his health. General SVR, an organisation claiming to have classified intel on Kremlin activities from retired and active intelligence officers, shared its allegations to social media. The claims became international news after British outlets The Mirror, The Express and GB News published the information, sparking discussions over the controversial leader's longevity. The insider group said Putin was found lying on the floor of his bedroom next to overturned food and drinks about 9.05pm on Sunday. His security personnel then stormed the room when they heard...

What is it going to take to wake people up? Russia is deploying tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus, and there is lots of talk in the Russian media about using such weapons to bring a quick end to the war in Ukraine. The theory is that once the Russians show that they are willing to use tactical nukes, the U.S. and the other western powers will back off. But that won’t be what happens. Instead of backing off, the Biden administration will respond by using U.S. tactical nuclear weapons against Russian targets in Ukraine. And once both sides have used...

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says China is considering providing weapons to Russia in its war against Ukraine, warning Beijing that any supplies would "cause a serious problem." "The concern we have now is based on information we have that they're considering providing lethal support," Blinken tells CBS's "Face The Nation"....

If you are even the slightest bit aware of what is happening to our country, you have probably said something like, “it can’t go on like this forever, eventually there is going to be a collapse.” From an economic perspective, you instinctively know that, eventually, you will run out of other people’s money. For decades now, you could tell how much a website’s audience was aware of reality and, therefore, how rightwing it is based on how many ads there were for disaster preparedness and food storage. For those with eyes to see, it is obvious that things are much...

The impact of the use of a nuclear device in Ukraine will depend on the details. Like any large-scale industrial army, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have obvious pressure points that would be vulnerable to nuclear attack. These include logistical centers, command and communications nodes, and concentrations of front-line forces. During the Cold War the Soviet Union expected to use tactical nuclear weapons against NATO (and expected that NATO would use them in return) and it is therefore likely that the Russian armed forces have workable theories as to how they might best use tactical nukes to inflict damage on Ukraine’s...

I grew up on Chicago's Southside, a graduate of Morgan Park HS. I'm returning to downtown Chicago after almost 5 years. What will I see? How safe is it? Can I walk safely down Rush street and Michigan Avenue at night, or do I take an Uber just to go three blocks. Five years ago, you'd encounter a few homeless people sleeping in the street, and get hit on by a beggar or two, how is it now? What kind of security downtown. Any festivals in Grant Park this weekend? Thank you for the help.

...[Sladkov] continued: 'The Americans used nuclear weapons in Japan, in a demonstrative way. So us, Russians, will have to demonstratively do it in Ukraine to remove the issue with further confrontation with those known 40 countries. 'A crater the size of several regions will be a clear example of how serious is Russia's appeal to NATO to get back to peace and harmony. But where will Ukraine go? 'Exactly where it's heading right now, with the only difference that it'll be fast, and cheaper for Russia. The Europeans and Americans can't quite get it that one must not harass a...
