I don't have a VPN service in place, because generally not worth it.

But I wouldn't trust any thing like truth social. I know what can be tracked, burner email or not.

I've become more cynical in my age, and a level of experience in the technology.
I have become a skeptic, as well.

Recently, I was at the mall and looked at a map to find a store.

There was a little sticker saying "You are here".

They must be following me.

Lets see. A website so new there is no fact check bias rating for it. Created from.... Amsterdam. Using domain by proxy obfuscating service. But named to appear American.

Suck it down vvv. Suck the lies and propaganda down.

But lets consider the result. He just saved the pensions of 350,000 people using Covid money that was not earmarked for anything. How much money did Trump take for his failed wall, and where did it come from (maybe Mexico paid), and what did it do to the military branches he took it from?

The only sign of weakness in the West has been Hungary and Republicans. Hungary can stupidly veto Finland and Sweden but that's about it; plus it marks them. Republicans, they were impotent in their midterm erection. There is no 'strategy' that Putin can affect here. He can play on with an increasingly bad hand or he can muck his cards. I'm spitballing here, I am, but he may not even be running the show. He may have been reduced to first oligarch.

So this might be a better explanation to why now? This deal was probably on the table for quite some time. But Putin needs some good news. The opportunity cost is they don’t have this card to play any more.

I spoke with a Hungarian tonight and now I understand why Orban likes Putin, even though reasonable people might conclude there should be a lot of animosity between Hungary and Russia. It is because Orban is a wannabe autocrat, so he has time for autocrat Putin.

Hell, I could have told you that a year ago, and I am not now and never will be Hungarian.

Biden did fine. He had a shitty hand and got as much as he could.

Vicktor Bout has been out of the game a long time and was always just an intermediary. That's why he was chillin in medium security and not sequestered away in SuperMax with all the other state secrets. In all deference to their families, neither Griner nor Bout matter to Putin. His goal is to strengthen Russian borders and embarrass the US Hegemony. He got a lucky flop and stole some blinds.

I think the Republicans should welcome Griner back and move on. Work on other means to get Whelan released.

So, why do the Republicans like Orban?

Oh, right.
The fortunate thing is, Trump is just too stupid and dithering to have made himself into an autocrat. It's as Bolton said, that was lame coup attempt on Jan. sixth-he knows from experience how to actually do a coup. I would like a coup these days in Russia and Iran, so maybe Biden should reach across the aisle to Bolton.

If it were just the defeated ex-President who have expressed admiration for Orban, that would be one thing.

CPAC is on board.

Fortunately, the US Constitution seems robust. January sixth was not the first failed coup attempt in the history of the US, there were the fascists that Patton snitched on in the 1930s.
