I'm on a mission from God
IMF data on GDP at purchasing power parity at the end of 2024.
He does these conferences with no teleprompter and minimal notes. Still sharp at 72 y/o
I had to watch it a few times before I realized the formation on the lower left represents the pentagon.
o7 to the DPRK leadership for their uncharacteristically muted response to the drone incursions and SK political meltdown on December 3. Yoon Suk Yeol and SK military leadership tried to elicit a response from DPRK and Pyongyang gently pushed the spotlight back on Seoul where it belongs. Well played.

More evidence something funny happened in Russia on Sunday Dec 7:
They write to us here that the call sign Kim was introduced on the last day, "and early in the morning of the 7th they broke into Plekhovo from three sides and this was the last day, then Plekhovo fell." That is, the Russian Army allowed the already strangled Ukrainian Armed Forces to win. Like an adult cat teaching a young one to hunt half-dead mice. There is no need to belittle either the merits of the Russian Armed Forces in the toughest battles, or to downplay the successes of the Kims . The truth is in the middle. But in general, the topic is still taboo, although we personally do not see anything wrong with showing the participation of all the healthy countries of the world in the fight against Nazism.
Comrades Two Majors wrote everything correctly : the truth is somewhere in the middle. Yes, indeed, not in 2, but in a few hours, the fighters "with the call sign Kim" demolished several streets. The term "demolished" is used correctly, because they say that they are pushing forward like tanks, despite the losses, demolishing everyone in their path. Before that, for two weeks, Plekhovo was systematically liberated by units of the Ministry of Defense and "Pyatnashka". By the way, as expected, the units "with the call sign Kim" work separately on tasks, because we are all the same to them...
Settlement was taken exclusively by the North Korean Special Operations Forces. In 2 hours. They passed through like a hurricane, did not take prisoners. The enemy lost more than 300 servicemen
Nearly 50 NATO vehicles scattered on Plekhovo streets after its liberation
I’m still in early stages of learning Russian so i’m relying on google translate here but I think he is saying RF let DPRK perform some of the final clearing of Plekhovo as a live fire training exercise. If its true then DPRK just had a smol engagement with NAFO on the battlefield and prevailed. Russians are letting the story drip out as a warning and a troll.
Looks like something happened wrt DPRK troops in Russia. Boris Rozhin has been vague-posting about it today.
First this:
North Korean comrades have undergone a baptism of fire. Effectively. Comrade Kim Jong-un can be proud
Then 5 hours later:
the year is 2029,
President Mangione has just signed the 'Free Healthcare Act' into law
me a cia lackey
I knock on a door at the cia warehouse and a guard lets me in.
a large room full of shelves
I see the shooter’s backpack, trump piss tapes, missing footage from Epstein’s jail cell.
I make my way past the Bolsonaro campaign buttons, the Brexit stickers, the color revolution banners: blue and yellow, orange, red and white.
I get to the last shelf and toss the ‘Assad must go’ poster on top of the other ‘must go’ posters. Gaddafi must go, Saddam must go, Noriega must go, Sukarno must go.
I make my way back to the exit.
“Take it easy Jimmy” the guard says. “I wouldn’t take it any other way Pops” I reply. Another day another dollar.
All the predictable news coverage of Assad coming out now. USA libs and cons going for a victory lap. They're even going after Assad's kids like they did for Saddam Hussein's and Gaddafi's kids. Oh my fckn god look at the mansion they lived in!!! (tiny compared to Mitch McConnell's and Nancy Pelosi's house). They had prisons!! People were held in prisons!!!!
Can't wait till the USA is liberated. They gonna find lots of unmarked graves on prison grounds. Prisoners with burnt legs and arms. Marks from torture and solitary confinement. Rat poop and bugs in the food. No heat in the winter.
Israel’s Kann is reporting that the IDF is considering carrying out a significant attack on Yemen focusing on the Houthis
This is making the rounds on twitter but I can't find it at KANN. Ansar Allah will be USA's Hanukkah gift to Isn'trael.
I hope Russia, China and Africa are ready for what's coming.
Hey Brian if you’re in helI reading this I just want to say I’m sorry. Sorry you got waxed? No I’m ok with that. Lets be honest it was probably the best outcome for everyone including your family. I’m just sorry you’re being compared to Hitler. You were an Eichmann at best. They did you dirty bro.
I need some antacid tablets stat
Assad is gone? Wow. I didn't know that... he led an amazing life. What else can you say?
The cops turned on him too lol. Anyone with less than a few million dollars in assets can get got by the medical industry and they know it.
Mujica has been described as "the world's humblest head of state" due to his austere lifestyle and his donation of around 90 percent of his $12,000 monthly salary to charities that benefit poor people and small entrepreneurs. An outspoken critic of capitalism's focus on stockpiling material possessions which do not contribute to human happiness, he has been praised by the media and journalists for his philosophical ideologies; Times Higher Education referred to him as the "philosopher president" in 2015, a play on words of Plato's conception of the philosopher king
Mujica has drawn worldwide attention for his simple lifestyle. He has used a 1987 Volkswagen Beetle and his 60-year-old bicycle as means of transportation. In 2010, the value of the car was $1,800 and represented the entirety of the mandatory annual personal wealth declaration filed by Mujica for that year. In November 2014, the Uruguayan newspaper Búsqueda reported that he had been offered 1 million dollars for the car; he said that if he did get 1 million dollars for the car, it would be donated to house the homeless through a program that he supports.
"I see that there are many young people here; as an old man, a little advice: Life can set us a lot of snares, a lot of bumps, we can fail a thousand times, in life, in love, in the social struggle, but, if we search for it, we'll have the strength to get up again and start over. The most beautiful thing about the day is that it dawns. There is always a dawn after the night has passed. Don't forget it, kids. The only losers are the ones who stop fighting."
If capturing Kurakhove takes months it will take a forever to defeat Ukraine in a city like Kherson or Sloviansk. At some point Russia will need to do decapitation strikes on Ukrainian leadership. Either that or lose another 1/2 million people on both sides. Seems like Putin's low and slow grind strategy worked well for the first few years of the war but eventually Nato is going to re-organize and meet the challenge. If Nato ends up defeating Russia I'm moving to Mars with elon.
