That said, despite “rhetorical posturing” by the Kremlin about putting the world’s largest nuclear arsenal on high alert, “We haven’t seen a lot of practical evidence of the kind of deployments or military dispositions that would reinforce that concern.”
Tactical and low-yield nuclear weapons refer to those designed for use on the battlefield, of which some experts estimate Russia has about 2,000 that can be delivered by air, naval and ground forces.
Abbott had stated that he got deals with 2 Mexican states and was going to talk to a 3rd so, let’s hope he got deals with all of them.
Since AP didn’t say anything about deals, I’m thinking he did.
Abbott’s program caused truckers who typically cross the border in less than 30 minutes to wait up to 8 hours to get into Texas. That has been slashing income for truckers who are paid by the load and reduced the flow of goods and supply into the United States, further adding to supply chain disruptions.
“Governor Abbott is directly responsible for applying these new senseless inspections on our industry as well as the adverse impact they are having on the economy and hardworking Americans, including truckers,” said American Trucking Associations President and CEO Chris Spear. “We ask that the Governor scrap his misguided scheme immediately.”
Within 24 hours of that statement, Abbott announced he had worked out deals with governors of three more Mexican states to return to normal sporadic inspections to get traffic flowing at the borders again. He struck a previous deal on Wednesday with the fourth state that borders Texas. Abbott said in return he has received promises of better border security from each of the Mexican governors to slow the tide of illegal immigration into the United States.

“There is the expectation that the Mexican states I have negotiated deals with will do what is necessary to reduce illegal immigration,” Abbott said. “And there’s the consequence that, if not, 100% inspections will be reinstated.”

I figured Beto would use this against him.

NY POST: Elon Musk considering bringing in partners on Twitter bid, sources say
I’m thinking this would be a no win for Beto.
Don’t most Texans want the invasion at the boarder stopped?
Hope Abbott keeps the pressure on the Mexican states.
Ducey should be doing the same but since he can’t run again for Governor, he doesn’t care.
Hi @elonmusk, have you considered that Twitter is blocking your offer because they are afraid you’d obtain documents proving they shadow ban and censor, which would contradict sworn testimony made before Congress?
This could be an Enron type scenario you’ve uncovered.— Cernovich (@Cernovich) April 15, 2022
People whose jobs were affected and food supplies weren’t getting there on time care more about that than the big picture.
And Americans can't trust the CIA to tell the truth as far as you can throw a Russian tank.

Millions of secret conversations across the USA are going on right now, in households, at dinner tables, at sporting events, at barber shops, at business lunches. Rich and poor are venting about what a complete disaster Joe Biden is and how much better everything was under Trump.

thanks for the ping!
>>>And Americans can’t trust the CIA to tell the truth as far as you can throw a Russian tank.
I started taking notes about Russian can use Nuke 3-to 4 days back. I read the CIA statement today afternoon.
Let me give you my thinking and comes to this conclusion -
1) Russians made this statement 2-3 times this week.
2) There was a mysticism about Russian weapons and fighting force. That had shattered quite brutally. Syria was their showcase. They had the upper hand. Syria was their symbol of superiority. They are still a superpower. Unstoppable fighting machine.
3) India and other buyers of Russian weapons are in shock. A new game plan is coming.
4) Fall of Russia is in front of the whole world.
5) FSB fooled Putin, Money given to them to bribe Ukrainians went to fun with mistresses.
6) Russian military training and discipline suck.
7) Majority of Russian weapons are from USSR days.
Now, what I will do. To regain my status, I will pull a big stunt and that will be a light nuke weapon. Hit where it will scare most. It will avoid Germany and France.
It’s good, the CIA is taking it seriously.
Injured, crushed, and humiliated Putin will give a big shock.

Democrats need to control twitter to win elections. It’s that simple.
It's easier to shut down businesses, close schools, mandates vaccines and masks, spread panic, and win elections when you control speech.— thebradfordfile (@thebradfordfile) April 16, 2022

We registered 13 voters at a gas station in Miami-Dade County — all Republican.
Thank you to the Miami Dade GOP for making today such a huge success.
+13 for the Republican Party of Florida
Scott Presler is amazing. A lone wolf plugging along for the cause. Impressive.

So, does that mean that Nato will protect them? Nato unwilling to put boots on the ground, will send some weapons though. What are they good for?
Oh wait, I am too harsh.
Well they do put troops on the ground in democratic unarmed countries that want to enforce vaccine mandates and complete lock downs. They can beat the people up in thier black unmarked uniforms were you can't even see their face.
Oh, they are also known for sodomizing children in places like Africa. I think that would be the Disney Brigade.

In case you haven't noticed, there are a lot of Christians on this thread. Some of us realize that Russia and China play a significant part in the last days and final war. That does not mean they are good guys. However there is no indication that specifically indicates the US will be a power.
There so much bluster. So much false distorted news. So much deception. When the same dishonest media picks their 'good guy', you can be sure they are not telling the whole truth. How many lies have we already uncovered in this proxy war. That's right, we pay, they suffer.
