This would require a Black Sea pipeline from Georgia to Yuzhne.
More bad news for Russia's Gazprom.
“The promises that Chinese will replace those manufacturing jobs”
China doesn’t want to set up manufacturing in RuZZia. They want to export finished products.
Those RuZZian jobs are Gone. For. Good.
“On the other hand, control over pests and enemies within society will help cleanse it”
Purifying RuZZian Society.
Biden is standing down. He done. Cackling Kamila is waiting for her nomination, if Hillary doesn’t get it first.
I predicted 4 years ago, Willie Brown’s mistress vs Nikki.
Looks like half right.
I predicted a ‘wild’ ‘open’ R convention.
I’ll change that prediction to a ‘wild’ ‘open’ D convention.
FWIW, Biden has endorsed Kamala.
What will Hillary do?
Who gets the VP nod?
This could get very interesting, but not interesting enough to watch the D convention.
I'll read about the daily events here.
the key will be the Congressional Black Caucus.

It's not so much the quality of the US strikes, but the target selection. The Biden regime was limiting the USN to attriting the Houthi's weapons and their operators in an effort to reduce their capacity to attack shipping and fire missiles toward Israel. That takes a huge amount of sorties and weapons over a period of time, and of course, a LOT of money. It's a (IMO) poor, weak strategy, even if carried out perfectly by the sailors and airmen tasked.
Israel lacks the capacity to conduct war in such an inefficient (and probably less effective) way, so they attacked port infrastructure that is key to funding the Houthi regime. Unlike the drones, radars and missiles the US destroyed, Iran can't just ship new port facilities to Yemen. Now I don't doubt the Houthis are stupid enough to keep poking Israel, but now they have to wonder "what will IAF destroy next"? But will they really care? Living through war and poverty doesn't seem to bother them. At some point, their sponsor needs to be reeled in.
How’s the weather in St. Petersburg?
He has no chance, but it would be intertaining.
“Senator Joe Manchin, a West Virginia independent, is “seriously considering” re-registering as a Democrat and running against Harris for the party’s presidential nomination, Manchin adviser Jonathan Kott said in an interview, confirming earlier reports.”

Russia is increasing the number of Tu-95MS near Ukraine: last week, the transfer of 3 bombers from the Far East (AB “Ukrainka”) to “Olenya” and “Engels-2” was noted, - tracking.
The purpose of such a transfer is unknown. Currently, 18 equipped aircraft are in service at the two airfields: 14 at “Olenya” and 4 at “Engels”.
How many Т-90М tanks did Russia produce?

We wrote about the fact that Biden will no longer be President of the United States a week ago. The Kremlin started talking about problems
You can be convinced that we gave exactly this forecast by reading this post. Several interlocutors, including those in the West, hinted to us about such a development as Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race (we have sources there who are rarely mistaken). But then they asked not to advertise conversations with them.
The problem is different.
“We were all preparing for Trump’s landslide victory. We calculated what we would do. No one even thought about removing Biden from the election, despite all the gossip. And here it is,” a source in the Kremlin told us.
Another confirmed this information and noted that “we simply did not calculate the situation.” In this regard, problems are possible, including regarding the Ukrainian conflict.
“Even achieving the goals of the Central Military District is now in question, much is in question. The West may take a sharp strengthening of the Kyiv regime and take some drastic actions. And then what? We will fire many of our analysts, otherwise there is no other way,” noted the interlocutor in the AP.
He promised to tell us more details later.

Kremlin snuff box, 07/22/24

After the “sensation” from Biden, Putin was urged to urgently change the advisers he trusts. Otherwise “there will be a big problem”
This position was expressed by several of our sources at once - in the Kremlin and the government. They asked us to publish their call, promising to “act in other ways.”
“There is a certain circle of people to whom Vladimir Vladimirovich listens. And there are problems with a significant part of these people,” said one of the interlocutors.
The main problem, he said, is that many of those who give advice to Vladimir Vladimirovich are constantly making mistakes in their forecasts.
In particular, they did not calculate Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the US elections (this comment by for this Dmitry Peskov confirms this information - ed.), the allocation of military assistance by the Americans to the Kiev regime (and the fact that Donald Trump will give the go-ahead ), then, that Ukraine will be financed using assets stolen from us and frozen. And much more.
“We don’t even have an understanding of how and when the Ukrainian crisis will end. But instead there is a chaos of forecasts about when the SVO will end. There are some concerns about a war with NATO , but also without clear plans and dates.
“You can not do it this way. It is also impossible to do like our Minister of Defense, from time to time replacing serious calculations and forecasts with prayers. There’s a lot that’s not allowed,” says another high-ranking source.
“Vladimir Vladimirovich is a wise man who makes the right decisions. But he can’t do everything. But he wasn’t entirely lucky with his advisors. And if measures are not taken, there will be a big disaster,” he is sure.
Let’s be honest, we conveyed this idea to a number of people who are close to the President. Some of them called the claims “nonsense.” Some said that “a mutiny on the ship will not be tolerated, and it will be suppressed.” Some promised to answer. Which we will definitely publish later.

The enemy continues to attack our refineries. And that’s the problem
In the morning, the enemy launched a massive drone attack. In particular, the oil refinery in the city of Tuapse came under attack.
There are two points worth paying attention to here.
The Ministry of Emergency Situations said that the fire at the refinery was caused by falling debris. However, the video of the attack shows that they actually tried to shoot down the enemy drone, but it still reached the target.
In essence, the Ministry of Emergency Situations is deceiving our fellow citizens, and this is not a very correct strategy. After all, it is very easy to lose trust, and this will later be used by the enemy.
The second important point is that this is not the first attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on our oil refining facilities. Unfortunately, it was not possible to protect all enterprises.
This is primarily due to the fact that air defense is necessary both at the front and to protect Moscow and a number of strategic facilities. At the front, by the way, many air defense installations have been lost over the past three months. We know the exact number, but we will not publish such sensitive information.
The most important thing is that the damaged oil refining capacity cannot be quickly restored due to sanctions. Yes, some equipment is in warehouses, some are trying to be imported through third countries, but if we continue to miss attacks on refineries, this will have a cumulative effect.
