The figure was in stark contrast with claims from Moscow that it has lost just over 6,000 troops in the war, and is higher than the official estimate of the Soviet losses in the Afghanistan war of 15,000 troops between 1979 and 1989.
I have to applaud Putin for cleaning out Russia's prison system this way. I truly think the US should do the same. But, clearly Putin is running out of men to fight his wars. And, Russian Widows are getting hungry and horny.

Here's the thing with DeSantis. His rollout sucked. The interview was awful - not DeSantis so much, but Musk's questioning was terrible. And, DeSantis' speech was vapid and childish. Seriously, he can't give worse-than-Jeb-Bush speeches and have a chance against Trump.
FYI, I am not a 100% Trump Supporter and I'm not a 100% DeSantis supporter. I want to see how each perform. Their platforms are nearly identical. Which one has a better chance of beating Biden and implementing their platform? So, I'm really calling this the way I see it.
The 2008 presidential campaign of Rudy Giuliani began following the formation of the Draft Giuliani movement in October 2005. The next year, Giuliani opened an exploratory committee and formally announced in February 2007 that he was actively seeking the presidential nomination of the Republican Party.At the onset of the campaign, Giuliani held a significant lead in the nationwide polls.[1] The candidacy of Senator John McCain faltered, and Giuliani maintained his lead in both national polls and fundraising throughout 2007.

Karl Marx’s family life was a disaster. Four of his six children died before he did. The other two, both daughters, eventually committed suicide. His poor wife, who suffered through adultery (including homosexual encounters) and neglect, by the 1860s was expressing a desire to die. Marx once wrote to Engels: “Blessed is he who has no family.” Jenny died in 1881. Marx did not attend the funeral. Karl Marx was the biggest **** that ever lived.

I love sailing; used to do some sailing with some friends of mine who had boats or access to boats in my 20's. Also did a lots of windsurfing. I understand the wind. On a 25+ knot day, you can get as much power and speed from a wind craft as from a motor boat, or jetski.

Blackrock has 1083 funds and ETF's of every description.Skans » 25 May 2023, 7:45 am » wrote: ↑ 9-Trilllion dollar monster, Blackrock, through woke (now called "ESG") activist investment strategies, has wrangled leftists onto boards of most major energy and oil groups in the US. This has nothing to do with creating better returns for investors or developing profitable products. It has everything to do with destroying companies that woke leftists don't like.
What Blackrock and Larry Fink won't tell you is that this type of activity is illegal. It runs contrary to the duty officers and board members have to their shareholders.
Blackrock is formed from a core group of Marxist-trained investors who's only goal is to make the world a "greener" place. By "greener" they really mean destroying oil, gas, coal and nuclear energy companies. This is in favor of companies that want to use government subsidies to can produce solar and windmills making far less efficient energy at a profit. The problem with this is that these Blackrock appointed board members are actually working for competing companies and not for the companies they actually serve as board members. They are opening Blackrock up to huge lawsuits from shareholders of companies like Exxon, which has had profits dip due to the antics of these woke ESG board members. Think trojan horse - that's what's going on here, and it is absolutely illegal.
This sentiment expands beyond just being woke. See, Blackrock is also invested in "green" companies, and this is a direct conflict of interest. Meanwhile, Blackrock makes huge contributions to Democrat political candidates. Larry Fink is the #1 darling to Democratic politicians. And, Fink has got a lot of Marxist-leftists, all extremely rich, dumping huge amounts of cash for what they feel are“moral” stocks. Fink and his Marxists might be laughing now, but the lawsuits are ramping up, and its starting to look like what Fink and Blackrock have been doing is downright illegal.
Bye Bye, Larry Fink!!!
