At times like this I'm reminded of one of Barney's proverbs: "Sharing is caring."
The miscalculation the Soviets are making here is that as all of Europe disconnects from Russia that disconnect is more likely to be permanent. That’s a revenue stream that won’t come back after the war is over.
———-
Wrong. China will buy happily Russia’s vast energy supplies. They just signed a 20 year contract to buy their grains and wheat. They are also as we speak developing a pipeline connecting Russia and China.
Vlad has supplied the west with energy only because it was inexpensive to get it to them. China says the pipeline can be built in less than two years, about the time Brussels ( just announced) said they can “ realistically wean “ themselves from Russian oil/ NG.
Sorry to say, Vlad holds all the cards, and Trump was right, again when he said the EU were fools for their dependence on Russian energy. By this winter, the EU manufacturing base will be halted by lack of Russian diesel, NG, and the Eurotards will learn what a “ cold “ ( freezing ) war actually is.
You mean I can just get me a rake and swoop some of it up? Just layin’ there from some other country? Won’t them Muslim ‘residents’ there get mad?
Has a transatlantic power cable to NATO Europe been approved in Congress yet? Just like gasoline, ammunition, pensions, weapons and baby formula, send them America’s. Joe is teaching us how to suffer like Soviets.
“They probably have a couple of battalions of smart phone meme tweeters.”
I wouldn’t make fun of the Finns’ fighting ability. They are VERY resourceful, and very determined.
Ya..that John Maki? He moved to get away from his troubles.
He moved a city block away and changed his last name to Makki.
He’s alright now.
If these geeks on here even had a clue.
I’m laughing before I know the answer. How?
Just tell 'em it's moon rock dust, an' ol' Mo would git mad leavin' it layin' around where unbelievers could see it.
And turn loose a couple of Goats of Kiev to distract 'em, afterwards.
My God ! What’s going to happen now ??
I have the book The Winter War, and know quite a few Finns.
They'd laugh, too.
Why is Finland not paying?
John died laughing, and they changed his name to Killimaki.
Deadbeat Finns.
Finland until this year always tried to balance things between Russia and the west. Russia doesn’t sell much that is useful so Finland to be nice bought some electricity.
It’s sort of like buying pencils from a homeless guy. Nice to do, but something you stop when the guy beats up one of your neighbors.
Crenshaw has done more to make me distrust military veterans running for office than nearly any other veteran including Jared Golden in Maine who actually had campaign ads showing himself target shooting and touting his military career while being actively anti-2nd Amendment.
The World Is Facing A Critical Diesel Shortage
By Irina Slav - Mar 15, 2022, 3:00 PM CDT
Kemp: diesel fuel stocks in Europe are at their lowest since 2008.
Russia is a major supplier of diesel, meaning Western sanctions for its invasion of Ukraine are affecting these supplies too.
A further rise in diesel prices is expected as production still has to catch up…
…In the United States, the situation is graver still. There, diesel fuel inventories are 21 percent lower than the pre-pandemic five-year seasonal average, which translates into 30 million barrels.…

Diesel is a nation’s manufacturing wealth. No diesel, no manufacturing among other things, trucking food, goods, railroads, etc…..
It is coming here, you can thank vegetable head Bidens sanctions and the Ukie war cheerleaders. Inflation, huge,historic, is just ramping up….maybe the war cheerleaders will finally wake up.
Don’t Americans think anymore? Following your emotions always results in bad outcomes.
I imagine within 6 months, all this war, war, war, bad Vlad cheerleading will disappear as the cheerleaders will be to busy trying to feed their families and make ends meet.
You act like a deadbeat who hasn't paid for their electricity since May 6th is an upstanding citizen.
Sounds like you hang with deadbeats.
If you read the book then you’d know the Finns are no slouches when it comes to fighting.
But if it’s chilly, I think most men would share a bed with a woman from Finland than the Urals.
I bet the power coming out of Russia is as dirty as everything else there.
For four years, from 1962 to 1966, Hoyer [23-27 years old] was a member of the staff of United States Senator Daniel Brewster (D-Maryland); also on Senator Brewster's staff at that time was Nancy Pelosi, who would later become a leadership colleague of Hoyer's.
In 1966, Hoyer [27 years old] won a newly created seat in the Maryland State Senate, representing Prince George's County-based Senate district 4C. The district, created in the aftermath of Reynolds v. Sims, was renumbered as the 26th district in 1975, the same year that Hoyer [36 years old] was elected President of the Maryland State Senate, the youngest in state history.
From 1969 to 1971, Hoyer [30-32 years old] served as the first vice president of the Young Democrats of America.
In 1978, Hoyer sought the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor of Maryland as the running mate of then acting Governor Blair Lee III, but he lost to Samuel Bogley 37%–34%. In the same year, Hoyer was appointed to the Maryland Board of Higher Education, a position he served in until 1981.
