Despite Trump giving both sides of the Ukraine war a two week deadline to make a deal, Russian dictator Putin is not showing any signs of letting up as he continues to pummel Ukraine’s military and civilian infrastructure on a daily basis. As I predicted, Putin has only piled up roadblocks to any direct talks with Zelensky. Foreign Secretary Lavrov says that “conditions are not right” for such a meeting—translation: sufficient destruction of Ukraine hasn’t taken place to put Ukraine in a position to yield to Putin’s demands. Trump says that “if no progress is made, he will decide on the next steps, which could include heavy sanctions or tariffs.” Trump says he is watching the attitudes of “both sides” during that period before determining his course of action, saying he will make a “big decision” at the end of the two weeks. He told reporters that, “whether or not it’s massive sanctions or massive tariffs or both—or do we do nothing and say, ‘It’s your fight.’” Well, sanctions haven’t worked, nor have tariffs on Russia or its allies, and although Trump talks about how Ukraine can’t win unless it attacks deep into Russia, he continues to prohibit the use of US-made long range weapons for such strikes. And, finally, by saying he might give up and say, “It’s your fight” only means he would leave Ukraine without support and that means Putin wins.

Massie’s push for repealing the Gun-Free School Zones Act comes on the heels of a high-profile attack against a Catholic school in Minnesota by a deranged gunman who wrote in his manifesto that he targeted the Annunciation Church in Minneapolis, in part, because he believed it “seems like the kind of school to not arm their teachers.”

The drills for which the Typhon is being deployed will be held from September 11 to September 25, but that doesn’t mean the missile system will return to the US at the conclusion of the exercises. A Typhon that the US deployed to the Philippines for drills in April 2024 remains in the country to this day, and there is talk of the US potentially sending another one. “China always opposes the United States deploying the Typhon Mid-Range Capability missile system in Asian countries,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said on Friday

If a string of fortified cities in northwestern Donetsk is breached, Russia will likely achieve its longstanding goal of capturing the entire Donbas region.

The vaccines are administered in the form of a nasal spray. However, the atomized delivery method raises new concerns about how similar “mists” could be sprayed over large numbers of people, vaccinating them without consent. Nevertheless, the corporate media has rushed to celebrate the decision, calling it “safe,” “convenient,” and “innovative.” What they aren’t saying is that FluMist has historically been one of the least effective influenza products on the market.
