"Russia-Ukraine war: List of key events, day 169".
I don't know how this guy did it, but there is not one word in this piece that isn't utter nonsense: "Ukraine struggles to retake Kherson before Russia annexes it" (Psaropoulos). The Al Jazeera daily summary is pretty bad, but less biased than anywhere else, but I think it is time to draw the curtain on the rest of their 'journalists'.
"U.S. To Pay More for Ukrainian Victories" and "More Weapons for Kiev’s Terrorist Attacks on Civilians" (South Front).
"Is There a Red Line Biden Won’t Cross?" (Snider). The Biden Presidency is an excellent cautionary tale explaining why the US needs a mentally functioning President. As it is, Biden is not capable of putting up any prolonged resistance - he appears to try, but can't keep it up - and the (((neocons))) are thus allowed to run wild. I assume this is the exact reason (((they))) picked him to run. Trump didn't do well against them when he was President - he started liking the shekels a little too much, and President Kushner was, of course, a huge problem - but at least he was able to block all (((their))) wars, which is why he had to go, and why his re-reelection has to be (((blocked))).
Also: "Did Donald Trump Bait the FBI?" (Johnson).
Bukele raises an excellent point:
Celebrating with some crack:
"Pentagon-hired contractors ‘everywhere on battlefield’ in Ukraine". Which makes this a direct military defeat of the US.
"How Ukraine Lost Its Riches" (Moon of Alabama).
"Oil Slides As Ukraine Readies Resumption Of Russian Crude Flow To Europe" (Durden). I guess somebody decided punishing Hungary wasn't worth the harm to the whole continent.
"EU Robbing Global South of Cheap Gas in Quest to Replace Lost Russian Supplies". The EU is the self-styled 'conscience of the world', and we've all just got an eyeful of what bullshit that is. They have just clothed their turbo-colonialism with virtue signalling. The sanctions against Russia are in themselves one of the greatest crimes against humanity in world history.
The big summary: "Why have I stopped posting maps of the situation in the Ukraine and a few other questions" (The Saker).
"Andrei Raevsky Gives..." and "About Iranian "UAVs". (Martyanov).
What branch of the US government is Twitter under?: "Twitter Suspends Russian Foreign Ministry Account For COVID Origins Theory" (Durden).
"The New York Times push for multilingual censorship" (North).
The brain-damaged neo-Nazi death cult weighs in: "Germany’s foreign minister bangs the drum for war in New York speech" (Schwarz).
"Ukraine War Day #168: Of Lies And Little Liars" (yalensis). The PR problem of Ukrainians voting with their feet and heading for Russia-controlled areas. "Russians Welcomed as Liberators in Many Eastern Ukrainian Cities Contrary to Western Media Depictions" (Van den Ende) [I'm having trouble getting this link to work].
"Ukraine War Day #169: Ukraine For Sale!" (yalensis). This parallels the neoliberal plans of treasonous scum like Rutte and Blackface Trudeau to depress the cost of farm land so Bill Gates can buy it up for a pittance. In Ukraine, the war makes this possible; in the West, it is phony terror at carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
"LIVE STREAM: News From Saint Petersburg - August 10th 2022 Update" (iEarlGrey). Starts just after 10:00. I feel it is abusive to force people to plow through short videos that are just cut out of the daily long video. If you are going to do that, you have to clearly identify the shorts as part of the daily long video.
The bicycle and bicycle-infrastructure fetish is the purest distillation of white privilege: "Payoffs to Community Organizers Almost Double the Price of a D.C. Bridge" and "Why We Can't Have Nice Things: Boston Bicycle Advocate Visits Amsterdam and Complains Dutch City Planners Focus on Needs of Dutch Cyclists Rather Than on Bike-Hating People of Color" (Sailer). The weird hobbies of completely deracinated white people - see also vegetarianism/veganism - are the current bedrock of white supremacy. Also, the entirety of Green opposition to nuclear power:
CIA subsidiary mocks CIA house organ by making reference to Russia's DARPA-like control over the Ukrainian internet:
