MAJOR: Russia Officially Becomes World's 4th Largest Economy, Passing Japan
  • I have already argued at length that Russia, being the most sanctioned and economically undermined and terrorized country on earth, via embargoes and outright industrial sabotage like the Nordstream attacks, may be underachieving—for now—while hiding a far more powerful economy than current records imply. If you take away those artificial handicaps unfairly gimping Russia’s economy, then it is almost certain that Russia’s true unmeasured economic might is that of 3rd place behind China and the U.S. It’s remarkable that even under unparalleled attack, Russia is able to command one of the fastest growing and most robust economies in the world.

    Oh boo hoo. Maybe Russia should consider ending their war of aggression so the world can see how powerful their economy actually is.

    Russian authorities in occupied territories want to seize over 13,000 "ownerless" houses
  • The journalists also spoke to a resident of the "DPR" ["Donetsk People’s Republic" – self-proclaimed and non-recognised quasi-state formation in Ukraine’s Donetsk Oblast – ed.] who has been fighting on the side of Russia for more than two years. Recently, he learned from his neighbours that his apartment had been recognised as "mismanaged property" and could be nationalised.

    2024 Draft - KC Chiefs summary
  • Here's hoping Xavier Worthy works out a little better than the last two receivers the Chiefs drafted high. I wonder if Rice's legal problems encouraged that pick or if Veach was planning on picking WR all the way if someone was available.

  • Ukrainian prisoners of war shot by Russians in Kherson Oblast
  • They appear to be disarmed and possibly wounded with the shooter moving calmly from one person to the next and executing them based on the video in the article. It's unlikely they're combatants at this point which would make them prisoners.

    The moment of the UAV strike at a Shahed UAV plant in Tatarstan, Russia.
  • I was wondering when they would start using civil aviation aircraft to conduct strikes. I'm not sure of the legality of weaponizing civilian assets for military purposes, but it's an effective disguise if they can log a flight plan near a sensitive target. Even if they don't hit the target or get shot down, then Russia will have to run the risk of shooting down its own civilian aircraft or stop general aviation flights near high value targets.

    Journalists filming anti-mobilization protest detained in Moscow
  • Maria Andreeva, a key face of the movement, has emphasized that she supports the guiding logic of the full-scale invasion, but is protesting the Russian government's treatment of its soldiers and the inability of mobilized men to be rotated out of the front line.

    She also has repeated Russian propaganda about the Bucha massacre, in which hundreds of Ukrainian civilians were killed by Russian soldiers, saying that it had been "staged" by the West.

    Disappointing yet unsurprising.
