#1  I've seen this movie! It ends with a Los Angeles breaching like a killer whale and Sam Neil never being able to see Montana!

#2  Sam Neil is a closeted gay. His friends and family are trying to convince him to come out. Same goes for Vlad Putin.

#3  Uh huh. Cut back on the late cocktails and deep-seated spank dreams. Neil and Putin...

#5  As newts to stout Gussie Fink-Nottle
Were grapes to Sam Neill! And a bottle.
Of manly pursuits
Was he fond... [worn-out boots]
And Mel, dressed up as Quetzalcoatl.

After Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, uneasy calm prevails at new border
[DW] The end of the recent conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh region in the Caucasus led to a new border between Azerbaijan and Armenia. What is the situation on the ground? Do people feel safe? A DW report from the frontier.

It's 170 kilometers (106 miles) from the Armenian capital, Yerevan, to the mountainous region of the Armenian province of Gegharkunik. Since the last festivities over Nagorno-Karabakh, it has become the border area between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

According to Yerevan, the Azerbaijani military advanced up to 4 kilometers into the new border area as recently as mid-May. In the process, it occupied more than a dozen heights near the Armenian villages of Kut and Verin Shorzha and began building fortifications. Both Armenian and Azerbaijani posts can be seen on the hills, sometimes with less than 15 meters (50 feet) between them.

Why did Putin speak harshly to the United States?
Direct Translation of the article. Edited
by Alexander Khaldei

[Regnum] Russian analysts, impressed by the new intonations with which Vladimir Putin spoke about the "red lines" for the West in Ukraine, note the harsh notes first sounded by the usually gentle and diplomatic Russian president.

#1  the defeat of the United States in Ukraine will cause a giant tectonic wave around the world.

I don't think so. Bad policy leading to pull outs and routs have become a pattern. Today, the criteria for leadership has become how well someone can sell failure to the rubes.

#2  Because the current management is hard on the uptake?

#3  You have to speak loud and clear to make sure the guy behind the curtain understands what you said.

#4  Because he could.

#5  Blinken, who bluntly said on the eve of the summit of the two presidents that the United States welcomes Ukraine's membership in NATO and will do everything possible to contribute to this

WTF?

What is America's interest in Ukraine?
Why on earth are we provoking Russia so pointlessly over this shithole?

Oh, now I remember. Hunter's and his dad's grift.

What a disgrace. Impeach this asshole. This is treasonous
