If you call having to walk 20 plus miles from your bunker back to the supply depot to get water and food "mobile" then perhaps the Russian soldiers are "mobile". The Russians in Ukraine along with the Ukrainian defenders are only able to survive if they are in bunkers, basements, or trenches with cover. That situation favors the defense.
Take a look at how Russians move about near the front lines.
The road from Zhovte to Novopustynka south of Pokrovsk. Littered with burned Russian vehicles, not many things with wheels are left.
He was held in contempt for refusing to turn $15 million in assets over to the court, not for refusing to give "the government" his computer programs. If "the government" or the CIA wanted his software so much, they could have seized it while he was in prison for eleven years.
Part of his plea agreement is he cannot work with any registered financial advisor or institution. Anyone registered to work in finance can't work with him because he can't register as a financial agent.
Why defend a convicted felon who can't work in the finance industry, and when the financial industry avoids him, no matter how good his phony self promotion looks?
I would guess that any mid-average intelligent person can look at what happened to the J6ers and understand that when the government sets it’s eye on you to prosecute you, you have almost no chance of justice. Federal prosecutors are successful more than 97% of the time IIRC. There is a reason.
In the case of Armstrong, it was him or the NYC banks. But his accusations were far more complicated because they wanted the software. He refused. He was held in contempt in solitary for years as a result.
I tried to fill in details people who just read wikipedia do not understand. I’ve learned many conservatives are as close-minded as liberals. I suspect it is human to find an idea that feels comfortable and immediately be closed to any dissonant facts. Unfortunately, when you do this you also simultaneously choose to not seek truth, only confirmation of pre-belief.
“I know of Armstrong through my career as a hedge fund manager and RIA.”
Did you know he was convicted of lying and securities fraud involving a ponzi scheme?

I know he pled guilty after 8 years of solitary confinement, when he heard his mother was dying. Also knew he was not charged until then, but was held on contempt.
“I know he pled guilty after 8 years of solitary confinement, when he heard his mother was dying. Also knew he was not charged until then, but was held on contempt.”
ROTFLMAO! Get your facts straight.
“after 8 years of solitary confinement,”
You should be ashamed for posting that lie! But I know that Armstrong and his “supporters” have no shame.
“I know he pled guilty after 8 years of solitary confinement, when he heard his mother was dying. Also knew he was not charged until then, “
Another lie.
He was charged in 1999. Eight years BEFORE he pled guilty.
“I know of Armstrong through my career as a hedge fund manager and RIA.”
If you only knew of him, why did you post numerous articles and links to his site?
I post what I find interesting and worthy of discussion.
Links are required for articles, and courteous when discussing.
Simple as that.
You can read my posts or not.
You can think or not
You can agree or disagree.
This is a discussion site.
“You can think or not”
I think delta7 is Armstrong. What do you think?
I have no idea.
He may be or not.
He posts many articles, but not close to all.
I don’t care. Some articles interest me and some I disagree with.
In any case read or not.
Think it not.
Comment or not.
“I’ve never met Armstrong, nor attended any of his events.”
——————BUSTED-——
You will not go to any other conference and sit next to central bank managers, family office leaders, etc. at the level of the armstrong economic conference. I’ve been to the other conferences in my former field. No where near the same.

As I stated, Armstrong conferences are attended by a different level of wealth and power. I have been to the others. Never to an Armstrong event. They were not at that level.
I am glad to see you are taking time to search through my historical posts over more than two decades here. Maybe you will learn to think bro.
“As I stated, Armstrong conferences are attended by a different level of wealth and power. I have been to the others. Never to an Armstrong event. “
Interesting your choice of words. Perhaps you are saying his conferences were attended by those of wealth and power much LOWER than the conferences.
Anyway, your grammar is very close to Armstrong/delta7.
But keep digging. It only unearthed more incriminating evidence.
I meant to convey that unlike the ordinary mainstream financial conferences I attended, the attendees at the Armstrong events are reported to be the big guys - nations, treasury advisors, sovereign wealth funds, etc. I didn’t know anyone of that magnitude.
My grammar is simply my grammar.
Interesting your choice of words. Perhaps you are saying his conferences were attended by those of wealth and power much LOWER than the conferences.

I see no record of conferences prior to going to prison.
It was in prison where he hatched the fake Socrates/conferences scam.
Believe whatever you want
