Interesting data point on the Ukraine war that makes a bit of a mockery of Russia's inevitable success. In exactly 114 days, the war with Ukraine will have lasted longer than Russia's war against Nazi Germany - the Great Patriotic War as they call it. Unlike 1945, Russia is no closer to success in Ukraine now than they were in the previous 1,303 days of the war.

I'm sure the evil liberal empire that Disney has become was not part of his original vision.
Look at the prices as well. A day trip to Disneyland can easily cost $500 or more for a family of 4

It's interesting to see how Disney has eaten itself. When I was younger Disney was synonymous with Evangelicals and Homeschoolers. For whatever reason, those groups were absolutley nutty about Disney. They owned every VHS tape. They saved their pennies and went to the park every single year.

Somehow, Disney went absolutely woke and pissed off their core constituencies. It started with "Gay Days" at Disney where the normally VERY strict Disney dress codes were abandoned for buttless chaps and dominatrix attire around children. It was a gay kink to be outrageous and hyper sexual in front of milquetoast families. Pretty much everything spiraled from those days onward.

Now Disney lost their core constituencies and is banking everything on Star Wars and Marvel franchises alone.

I read an article this week that Disney World is nearly empty. Get woke, go broke.

This is the video from which the factoid above emerged (finally relocated it). It is very different than the usual "discussion" where the virtues of the Russian army and the brilliant leadership of Putin seems to be the usual mantra. Normally, nothing said on these programs does not have the Kremlin's stamp of approval. One can't help but wonder if just a few cracks aren't beginning to appear.

 
Just a touch of discord there me thinks.....:D

Walt Disney was always a rabid anti hunter. "Bambi" was just the best.known example. He used his company to brain wash millions of young and naive people.
 
Spike, take a look at Ilhan Omar’s past in Somalia. Her father was a senior officer in the corrupt dictatorship of Siad Barre. They were NOT refugees. They were escaping justice when Barre was overthrown.

The dictatorial regime of Mohamed Siad Barre ruled Somalia from 1969 to 1991, imposing an autocratic ideology of "scientific socialism" that combined Marxism with Islamic principles
. Barre's rule was characterized by political repression, suppression of dissent, and widespread human rights abuses that ultimately led to his overthrow and the start of the long-running Somali Civil War.
 
Adelita Grijalva, the progeny of the late Raul Grijalva, won the Tucson special election to represent district 7 in the house of representatives.
Tucson voters have never been very smart, however, district 7 is a barrio hell hole, So I cant say I'm surprised

That’s a special kind of eff up.
 
Looks like another pocket of Russian Infantry has been surrounded just south of the other two already being destroyed. Russian Commanders tried to break through with several Units rushed into the battle and a Marine Regiment, but the AFU stopped that cold.

Things are becoming mobile again, which will be in Ukraines favor for the most part. Static warfare in trenches works for untrained Russian conscripts, but mobile maneuver warfare takes trained soldiers and leadership.

Trump 2025 UN speech vs 2018 speech when trump warned about relying on Russian energy. Times have a way of changing.
