It means bad news for Vlad and his meeting with Xi, a weak defeated Russia has it's advantages for China. Being on the good side of Uncle Sam and the allies means being on the bad side of Putin.

They don't seem to be eager to commit to either side, or to condemn either side...If was in Xi's place, I would just sit on the side lines, and be sending lots of diplomatic envoys into all the Stans, on the QT...get on a first name basis with people...give them a good alternative to relying on russia, who clearly doesn't give a fuck about them, just their resources and their lives for putin's war crime party.
America needs to be offering alternatives to China...with the right incentives, they could clean up a lot of the mess the inevitable fall of the putin regime is going to make, gain a lot of resources, a lot of new territory and people, all of whose industry are centered on resource gathering and not on technology...good for them, good for us...

Joe probably greenlighted Chinese soft power expansion into central Asia at the expense of Russia, China will take advantage of their weakness. There is oil and gas there allowing China to get off coal and markets too, if they are selling oil and gas to China. That should keep them busy for a decade or two, that and picking up the pieces of the shattered Russian empire, again using soft power to control local governments and economies.

Just a day after destroying an ammo dump in Donetsk stored in the same school building as hundreds of Russian soldiers, Ukraine has destroyed a huge Russian ammo dump near Svatove.
The exact size of the dump isn’t known, but it has been estimated that it has been stocked for two weeks.

That consumer grade drone could have been a model airplane with a pound of HE on a GPS guided one way trip. Price less than $500 USD, the cost to the Russians is measured in millions.
On New Year’s Day, Ukrainian forces directed what were reportedly missiles from a HIMARS launcher at a building housing hundreds of Russian troops in the the occupied town of Makiivka, roughly 20 kilometers from the front lines in Donetsk Oblast. Unfortunately for the soldiers housed there, Russia was also apparently using the building—formerly a school—to stockpile ammunition. The resulting explosion absolutely leveled the location. That single attack appears to have killed hundreds of Russian soldiers, with the Ukrainian military estimating it at 400 killed, 300 more injured. Meaning that this might be the single largest loss of Russian forces in the entire war. We can’t be sure because Russia will not give actual numbers about losses during the sinking of the cruiser Moskva, but in any case, it’s a massive loss for Russia.
Ukraine followed this up by hitting another large ammunition storage in Svatove on Monday. This time, the massive explosion appears to have been triggered by a single small bomb dropped from what was likely a consumer-grade drone. That explosion also resulted in not just the loss of ammunition for that Svatove area, but the loss of an unknown number of Russian soldiers who were present in and around the facility.
In the early hours of Tuesday, it appears that Ukraine has hit another Russian base, this time in occupied Tokmak in Zaporizhzhia Oblast. How many Russian soldiers were taken out in this attack is unclear, but initial reports suggest “dozens.” This location was roughly 25 kilometers from the front lines.
In retaliation for the Makiivka attack, Russia fired missiles into an ice rink at Druzhivka, near Kramatorsk. The number of Ukrainian soldiers lost in this attack appears to be … zero. Because this isn’t just a war of weapons. It’s a war of intelligence.

This was early 80's. The Saipan had a couple three killings. Those got attention, but lots smaller stuff was just ignored. Anyway, I was the injured party, so to speak.

There were various protest sects, but the church of England predominated, it's titular head was the King of England. I dunno if it was made illegal or if it just became unpopular, but there is or was no church of England (Anglican) in America. Also the religions varied with the populations origins, though most were protestant of one kind or another. In all the crown colonies the church of England had special statues and is still supported by the government in the UK today.

or perhaps the ones who trained him?
or maybe the ones who authorized the criminal war to begin with? oh...that would be the same people shouting for someone to take responsibility,
obviously, it can't be their fault...

- Former President Donald Trump said the US is giving Ukraine too much aid in its fight against Russia.
- The new Republican House majority will likely try to more closely monitor Ukraine aid.

The college that was hit (with 4-600 dead) had lots of armored vehicles parked around it. Small clue right there.

The crown was represented by the governor, but the legislatures often had other ideas. At the time of the Puritans England was at civil war with Cromwell leading the dissenters (parliamentarians) until the restoration, then they turfed another King after cutting his father's head off and driving him off to France, then brought William of Orange in with his wife Mary in 1666. With the ascendency of the monarchy came the "high church" and the rest of the protestants were second class citizens! They ended up founding the industrial revolution since they were banned from the universities.Religion in the Original 13 Colonies | Under God | ProCon.org
