“The Azov Battalion and other radicals kicked out all the expectant mothers, the nurses and other staff members. It was the base of the Azov ultra-radicals,”

“Lavrov added that reports coming from Ukraine that contradict this were obviously meant to “manipulate global public opinion” about what is happening in the country, and he also chastised Western media for taking part in the propaganda effort.”

““I have seen reports … that were really emotional. Unfortunately, the other side of the situation, which would allow one to form an objective opinion, was not given any prominence,” Lavrov said.”

“61% of imports were from Canada; 10% from Mexico; 6% from Saudi Arabia; and 3% from Russia. 2021 crude imports from Russia averaged 0.2 million barrels per day, the highest level in many years, but still a small share of total imports and total crude oil processed by U.S. refineries”

The White House is threatening to cut off Chinese manufacturer SMIC from US trade as punishment for not going along their anti-Russian hysteria.

Meanwhile back in the real world, the US has had a trade embargo against SMIC for the past two years, and they are posting record revenue. Biden’s actions will take money away from US companies who sell product to semiconductor manufacturing companies.

The vast majority of Silicon Valley engineers are Asian. If the US becomes hostile and shows they can’t be trusted, there will be a large migration of technology to Asia.

“Those Are The Facts”

I turned off Google Ads months ago, but they are still sending me these sorts of idiotic messages.

I’m also done with Twitter and YouTube because their censorship made them irrelevant. Now we have banks and other private companies demonstrating they can’t be relied on and are willing to steal people’s property and deny them their civil rights. They are self-destructing and opening up opportunities for other countries and business models to replace them. Once a business or government loses the trust of their clientele, they are doomed to fail.

“In Congress, July 4, 1776

Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

Who needs Monty Python?  We have Joe Biden to provide our comic relief.

“Joe Biden is in Texas today but won’t meet with energy producers to find out what’s needed to increase production, reduce prices, and reduce dependence on foreign oil. Instead, this White House would rather meet with Venezuela and Iran.”
