The reason Arkansas is such a huge recipient of investment is because every HIMARS made, and I think all the missiles too, are built in Camden, Arkansas. The plant size recently doubled, because duh, plus I think McDonnell-Douglas or another huge contractor is building another plant there too.
This is in my congressional district, yet our dumbass congressman, Bruce Westerman, keeps bitching about “aid to Ukraine.” While billions of dollars and tons of jobs are coming into his district.

Ukraine has shot down 7 Russian jets this week including another one of those expensive long distance surveillance planes that Russia has very few of.

The Freedom of Russia Legion and the Siberia Battalion pushed across the border into Russia a few days ago but this time they’re staying, capturing towns, and pushing farther into Russia. Belgorod military targets are under attack now and civilians are being evacuated.

The Freedom of Russia Legion is claiming to have killed over 600 Russian soldiers…in Russia. The Russian military can’t seem to dislodge them after almost a week.
There has been a major terrorist attack on a theatre complex in Moscow. Potentially hundreds dead. Multiple, heavily armed shooters entered the complex and just started shooting. It’s also possible that they blew up the building, there is footage on social media of it in flames.
False flag? Smells like the 1999 apartment bombing by “Chechens”.

That makes sense. How will Russia spin it though? I’m starting to think we’ll see NATO soldiers in Ukraine this year.
Showing my ignorance here; what is the beef Daesh has with Russia? Old Chechen animosities? Old Afgan animosities?
Russia’s brutal tactics in Syria?
That’s it. Russia’s support for Assad has been particularly brutal.
Fuck you in the ass, Matt.
