I really hope we lift our boulder on the dark money funding our sellout politicians soon. I think it is more likely that they will just try to use this Russian war sanctions to strangle out the money and let the politicians wither away, but I really hope I am wrong about that.
Donald just threw Vald under the bus, I wonder how that will work out? His base were moved by the images on TV of white Christians with guns and guts fighting for liberty. This resonates deeply with the base and he's got to do a 180 and fuck Vlad, or try to.
If we sift through the ashes we might find stuff. Russia are now detaining children protesting the war. I think this is going to end very badlyI really hope we lift our boulder on the dark money funding our sellout politicians soon. I think it is more likely that they will just try to use this Russian war sanctions to strangle out the money and let the politicians wither away, but I really hope I am wrong about that.
It will be interesting to see if the numbers of political donations in the upcoming months though.
Huh?
In the end I don't think it will matter much, this will be over one way or another before they could help and they can't help where it matters most, to the average Russian.China Says it Won't Join in Financial Sanctions on Russia
China won't join the United States and European governments in imposing financial sanctions on Russia, the country's bank regulator said Wednesday.
China is a major buyer of Russian oil and gas and the only major government that has refrained from criticizing Moscow's attack on Ukraine.
Beijing opposes the sanctions, said Guo Shuqing, the chairman of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission.
"We will not join such sanctions, and we will keep normal economic, trade and financial exchanges with all the relevant parties," Guo said at a news conference. "We disapprove of the financial sanctions, particularly those launched unilaterally, because they don't have much legal basis and will not have good effects."
China May Hold Lifeline for Russia as It Opposes World's Sanctions
With China and Russia growing increasingly close in recent years, China has not only condemned the world's sanctions on Russia's invasion of Ukraine as illegal, but it might just maintain a role in helping their new close trade partner overcome the sanctions.www.newsmax.com
We are gonna do the same to them in spades!NY Post: Russia 'Declares Cyberwar on US'
Cyberwar has been declared on the United States, with Russia using preliminary but increasing steps in a campaign to cripple the nation's banking systems and potentially other industries, according to a new report.
The United States' major banks, JP Morgan, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs, are under constant cyberattacks from criminals, usually located in Russia, Iran, or China, but those attacks are intensifying after sanctions were announced over the invasion of Ukraine, business reporter Charles Gasparino reported in The New York Post Tuesday.
The bank executives would not comment on the record out of fear that comments would embolden both cybercriminals and Russian government proxies, and referred calls to the Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center, a cybersecurity consortium for the banking industry.
"We are in close communication with our member firms and relevant authorities around the world to monitor cyber activity against the financial sector," a group spokesperson told The Post in a statement. "At this time, the sector is not seeing any significant threats attributable to any geographic origin. We continue to actively assess the situation through enhanced monitoring and cross-border threat intelligence sharing across the financial services sector."
The Biden administration has been working with the banks for some time to prepare for cyberattacks, and the banks have spent billions of dollars to protect their systems, but the paper's sources say the latest wave is a "subtle but intensified assault" on the banks' technology infrastructure.
One big bank executive said the consensus in the industry is that Russia is behind the latest attacks, adding that so far, there have been no real breaches.
Press officials from JP Morgan, Citigroup, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley offered no comment on the reports.
The financial sector is likely to be better protected than other industries against cyberattacks because it spends billions on the issue, but "other industries are definitely at risk of attack," Herb Lin, a senior research scholar at the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford University, commented to The Post.
"I think the water utility companies could be a weak spot as they're not known for their cybersecurity," he added.
Moscow has denied ties to the criminals behind massive attacks against the Colonial Pipeline and the meat producer JBS, but federal intelligence officials say the hackers have at least some support from Russian President Vladimir Putin.
