  6. How much accurate information did you get from MSM about the state of financial markets in the run-up to the credit crunch? Their job is to mostly keep the population out of the loop.

    If the following is true, that would be spectacular news!!!

    Below a translation from Russian to English with Google.

    To the decision of the Municipal Council of the municipality Smolninskoe dated 07.09.2022 No.

    According to Article 176 of Chapter 22, Section IV of the Rules of Procedure of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, deputies of the State Duma have the right to make a proposal to bring charges against the President of the Russian Federation in order to remove him from office.

    In our opinion, since the beginning of the special military operation on the territory of Ukraine in the actions of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin. there are signs of a crime provided for in Article 93 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation - high treason.

    From February 24, 2022 to this day:

    • In the NMD, combat-ready units of the Russian army are being destroyed, young able-bodied citizens are dying and becoming disabled:
    • The Russian economy is suffering. The inaccessibility of foreign components, the withdrawal of companies and investors from the market, the emigration of the educated population, all this cannot pass without a trace for the economic well-being of Russian citizens;
    • The NATO bloc is expanding to the east. Earlier, the President of the Russian Federation has repeatedly stated that the expansion of NATO to the East threatens the security of the country. However, as a result of the actions of the President of the Russian Federation, a decision was made to admit Finland and Sweden to NATO. As a result, the length of Russia's border with NATO countries has more than doubled;
    • The demilitarization of Ukraine was declared one of the goals of the NMD. However, the opposite effect has been achieved. During the NMD, Ukraine received modern military equipment and funds in the amount of $38 billion. This is more than the annual military budget of Canada or Poland.

    We believe that President Putin's decision to start the NWO is detrimental to the security of Russia and its citizens.

    In this regard, we ask you, as a deputy of the State Duma, to come forward with a proposal to bring charges of treason against the President of the Russian Federation in order to remove him from office.

    You have valid criticisms about msm, and no shortage of examples where their failings are evident.

    My comment was directed to the YouTube influencers. If they focused on one thing perhaps they would develop more credibility about having some degree of expertise and insight. However, looking through their channel, it looks more like opinions on the hot topic of the day.

    If you enjoy it , that’s your prerogative. It comes across more as an entertainment channel than real investigative journalism.

  10. This North Korean ammo thing is a mixed bag.

    Just in general it does not have a good look to it when Russia is already relying on North Korean supply at the same time that it is planning a wider war beyond Ukraine and needs to be able to fight NATO as well.

    Most of that crap the are bringing in is just old school unguided, no precision control stuff that, unfortunately is ideal for the indiscriminate shelling of cities and civilians but otherwise pretty low tech. The other thing is that the Ukrainians are intercepting more and more of their ammo by blowing up ammo dumps so the Russians will need to get that north Korean ammo to the front which is getting more difficult these days. They have not been been able to adapt or move away from the rut they are stuck in where the American satellites track the movement of the rail and then the unloading of ammo to the predictable ammo dump sites and then boom. That is where some of this North Korean hype falls apart a bit. Getting it across bridges (oh wait, there are no bridges in some critical areas) and across rail lines that are blown up remains to be seen.

    No doubt some villages will be flattened indiscriminately with the Korean crap so I do not dismiss it lightly but it is not game changer material and not something you would want to try to take Finland or Poland with. Putin definitely is not running out of ammo immediately but he does seem to be cutting into stuff that he needs to preserve for fighting nato or expanding his invasion to other countries. His plan of course is to freeze Europe to death and maybe that will work, I dunno, but military expansion into those countries looks dimmer unless he gets his supply shit together.


    Anyway, more at link if so inclined.

    North Korean ammo will stretch Russia's supply, but with clear limits and drawbacks
