They are likely joining the three Northern Fleet LSTs that caused Sweden to order troops to the streets.

Keep hearing of train burglaries in LA on the scanner so went to #LincolnHeights to see it all. And… there’s looted packages as far as the eye can see. Amazon packages, @UPS boxes, unused Covid tests, fishing lures, epi pens. Cargo containers left busted open on trains. @CBSLA pic.twitter.com/JvNF4UVy2K

Why do I say Europe is fighting it too? Because we've seen massive protests in the UK, Germany, France, Italy and a few other countries. The power of govt is the undercover "big" issue of our time. Not covid, but the power of govt to regulate people...how far can govt reach into our private lives for the sake of the "greater good".NOW - Large protest against compulsory vaccination in #Vienna, Austria. pic.twitter.com/K16Hp5kynW

Chinese officials are providing only limited information about human cases of H5N6 bird flu and it often takes weeks before cases are publicly reported to WHO. Most cases are first reported by the Hong Kong Health Department, which is closely monitoring human cases.H5N6 bird flu is known to cause severe illness in humans of all ages and has killed nearly half of those infected, according to WHO. There are no confirmed cases of human-to-human transmission but a woman who tested positive in July 2021 denied having contact with live poultry.“The increasing trend of human infection with avian influenza virus has become an important public health issue that cannot be ignored,” researchers said in a study published by China’s Center for Disease Control in September 2021. The study highlighted several mutations in two recent cases of H5N6 bird flu.
Everyone is worried about nuclear warfare. A few are worried about chemical warfare.
People hardly think about biological.
But here it comes.
Hackers brought down dozens of Ukrainian government websites on Friday and posted a message on one saying, “Be afraid and expect the worst,” a day after a breakdown in diplomatic talks between Russia and the West intended to forestall a threatened Russian invasion of the country.
Diplomats and analysts have been anticipating a cyberattack on Ukraine, but proving the source of such actions is notoriously difficult. Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry did not directly blame Russia for the attack, but pointedly noted that there was a long record of Russian online assaults against Ukraine.
NOTE>I believe Russian hackers or proxies for Russia sent this message.
Ukraine ain't ready.
They aren't in NATO.
They have rampant corruption and even have a brigade of Neo-Nazis.
Covid is running wild worldwide, people all over the country are tired of the restrictions, inflation is a problem and for the first time in my memory we're seeing empty shelves in the US.
Do you think that any Western govt will be able to rally their people to send troops to defend Ukraine?
Sorry. It's harsh. It ain't what you want to hear. But it is the truth.
This is turning into a terrible term for Biden. His presidency MIGHT go down as being incompetent beyond belief.
The Afghan withdrawal. Terrible economy. Empty shelves. Covid still raging after he declared independence from the virus along with many Americans not wanting to get on with life now that the "science" says we need to live with it.
Add a successful Russian invasion into Ukraine and Biden/Dems hopes are done in 22 and 24.
Putin holds Biden's fate in his hands. Biden might be screwed anyway if he can't improve the previous but add an invasion of Ukraine to the mix and its all but over.
He will be constrained like no modern president ever has been if the Republicans win.
You want Russian interference? This could be the REAL interference.
