  1. US to Sell Off Entire Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve Newsweek, by Aleks Phillips The sale of the Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve is among the provisions intended to raise funds in one of six bills setting out appropriations for some federal departments this year after Congress narrowly avoided another shutdown last week. [Snip] "Upon the complete of such sale, the Secretary [of Energy] shall carry out the closure of the Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve," the bill states, and "may not establish any new regional petroleum product reserve unless funding of the proposed regional petroleum product reserve is explicitly requested in advance in an annual budget." https://www.newsweek.com/us-sell-northeast-gasoline-supply-reserve-1875538
  2. Ukraine crisis: Transcript of leaked Nuland-Pyatt call An apparently bugged phone conversation in which a senior US diplomat disparages the EU over the Ukraine crisis has been posted online. The alleged conversation between Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and the US Ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt, appeared on YouTube https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957 .
  3. CIA in Ukraine: Why is this not seen as provocation? An explosive new NYT report shows how Washington needlessly fed into Russia’s worst fears and precipitated the invasion, justified or not MARK EPISKOPOS The White House’s messaging on the Ukraine war is built around two simple-yet-powerful adjectives: “We are united in our condemnation,” said President Joe Biden almost two years ago in a joint statement with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, “of Russia’s unjustified and unprovoked war of aggression against Ukraine.” The “unjustified and unprovoked” line has been used numerous times by a chorus of top U.S. officials and allies, quickly becoming a rhetorical mainstay of Biden’s maximum pressure campaign against the Kremlin. This messaging conflates two important, yet fundamentally different issues. There is little question that Russia’s invasion has wrought a horrific human toll on Ukraine and upended European security in ways that few anticipated prior to February 2022. But it is also not without its context, which includes a litany of grievances that — however unjustified from the perspective of the West — constitute what the Kremlin saw as sufficient provocation to initiate the most destructive war in Europe since 1945. An explosive New York Times exposé by Adam Entous and Michael Schwirtz sheds light on major developments preceding the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. According to the report, the Ukrainian government entered into a wide-ranging partnership with the CIA against Russia. This cooperation, which involved the establishment of as many as 12 secret CIA “forward operating bases” along Ukraine’s border with Russia, began not with Russia’s 2022 invasion, but just over 10 years ago. https://responsiblestatecraft.org/cia-ukraine-russia/
  4. Back to the thread: The correct answer for the "They're trying to tell us what my kids can read" crowd
  5. I assume that you meant "Hitler" I also assume that you were typing with one hand It's fairly clear to anyone who was reading my posts that I used those qualifiers as a way of redirecting the thread back to the point and away from your long list of drivel But you fitting it to your fantasies is certainly consistent for you. .
  6. And everyone knows it. This is the reason for the panic.
  7. Ya think he's taking donations. . . . . . . . . . . . . and NOT altering his decisions ? Boy those 'doners' must be as stupid as you guys here. Meanwhile: He's always been a petty, small man.
