Initial 2nd qtr GDP estimate showed a huge miss, -1.6% contraction. if confirmed that means we're already in a recession, it's all falling apart for poor Joe.

My post was incorrect, revised 1st qtr numbers showing weaker growth than initially, it was not a 2nd qtr print, sorry.
At a summit in Madrid, NATO leaders agreed to put more than 300,000 troops on high alert while beefing up its European defenses with extra forces, enhanced air power and new equipment, including two additional squadrons of US F-35 stealth fighters. After Turkey dropped its veto on Sweden and Finland’s membership applications, the alliance is also set to add two new members, bolstering the exposed Baltic nations.

Turkey dropped it's veto because sweden and finland caved to every demand of turkey.

Every city Russia captures is depicted as a small incrimental gain of little importance, which in the grand scheme of things might be true, except the ukranians losing thousands upon thousands of their best troops is not so small, not so incrimental.
Keep in mind a few months ago the US defense misinformation board acted like every russian plane shot down was a triumph, every russian tank destroyed an epic victory.
Ukraines army is being destroyed, it's weapons stockpiles depleted, it's reserves exhausted, things are going very, very badly for them at the moment.

Good idea, in a few years it'll be ready.
correct
Qatar is one of few nations that can substantially replace Russian energy supplies to Europe, though not until its extra gas starts flowing.
It is planning a second expansion phase called North Field South. That will raise its capacity to 126 million tons a year by 2027. Many of the partners for that project will be the same as those on North Field East, Qatar’s government has said

Right after the Dems lose the Senate, House, and Presidency.
this is all europe's fault. They should have had the extra lines put in place as another option. Too late.

Things moving quickly now, severodonetsk saw heavy fighting for weeks, now lisichansk may fall in a week, these are the front lines where the ukranians have built fortifications since 2014, once they're gone all that's behind will be hastily built defensive lines manned by poorly trained soldiers

President Joe Biden is not the unifier-in-chief Americans are supposed to believe he is. Instead, he continues to divide the nation with his rhetoric, while pushing hard for progressive policies the average family couldn’t care less about.
On Wednesday, just 5 days after SCOTUS overturned Roe, Biden plunged to his all-time low in the RealClearPolitics average, sinking below 38%.

What a surprise, no one wants to join the military. I have an idea, lets start the draft and draft plenty of women - build that diversity.
