The dead and wounded in Sumi don't give a fuck about your political maunderingsJames Comer: FBI Doc Alleges ‘Business Person from Ukraine’ Sent ‘Substantial Bribe’ to VP Biden
WENDELL HUSEBØ7 Jun 2023
The FBI’s informant file of a $5 million bribery scheme allegedly linked to President Joe Biden concerns the family’s business deals in Ukraine, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) revealed Monday.
In May, Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) made bombshell claims after reviewing an FBI FD-1023 form that documented the informant’s allegations of an alleged bribery scheme involving an exchange of money for policy decisions between now-President Joe Biden and a foreign national. Comer disclosed the informant tip is dated June 30, 2020.
“Yes, it is Ukraine,” Comer told The Just the News. “This form 1023 involves a business person from Ukraine, who allegedly sent a bribe, a substantial bribe to then Vice President Joe Biden.”
The Biden family frequently visited Ukraine for its respective business. Then-Vice President Joe Biden served as the Obama administration’s Ukrainian “point person” on U.S. foreign policy. He visited Ukraine six times while serving as vice president.

I said long ago there is good reason to believe that Joe Biden has been compromised by Ukraine and other countries.
I appreciate your taking the time to post this note.Andrew Tanner: April 15: Frontline Overview:
Southern Theater
So far the ruscist push towards Zaporizhzhia has stalled at Ukraine’s forward defense line, unable to push north, west, or east in the past week. Fighting continues, and the situation could still worsen, but this offensive isn’t going very well for Moscow so far. Neither are operations along the Dnipro, where there are reports of orc detachments starving after being more or less abandoned in the swamps or on some island. Ukraine quietly maintains several small bridgeheads across the river, backed by three coastal defense brigades organized under the auspices of the Marine Corps. Not much is expected in the south in the near future, save for expanding Ukrainian drone strikes. With Kherson under daily bombardment, hunting down orc artillery and drone operators is probably the priority here.
The Air Domain - Towards Victory In The Sky
Properly shielding Ukraine’s skies has never been a complicated matter in a general sense. It’s about having enough air defense systems and aircraft to make the majority of enemy attacks unproductive. Sadly, stopping terror strikes like the ones against Kryvyi Rih and Sumy, both fairly close to the front line, is inherently more difficult than blocking strikes on Kyiv. Still, what both have in common is the need for a multi-layered air defense network. The ground-based component of this consists of:
At least one former Ukrainian schoolteacher is credited with knocking down a cruise missile using a shoulder-fired SAM she barely looks capable of lifting, but obviously can. But her personal victory was critically enabled by sensors and networks.
- Long-range SAMs like Patriot and Aster that can knock down ballistic missiles coming down within about 50km;
- Medium-range ones like NASAMS and IRIS-T which are best against aircraft and cruise missiles out to the edge of the horizon;
- Short-range systems like the retrofitted Soviet models using NATO missiles (dubbed FrankenSAM) and even Humvees rigged up to launch converted heat seeking air to air missiles;
- Mobile gun systems like the venerable German Gepard or just a machine gun on the bed of a pickup are highly useful for taking out drones and sometimes cruise missiles.
Ukraine has no more than eight or nine long-range systems, which are the core of any air defense network thanks to their ability to intercept ballistic targets. These come down from suborbital altitudes at thousands of kilometers per hour, and while mid-range weapons can sometimes score a lucky hit, they can’t be relied on. Because Ukraine has numerous large cities and a front line spanning many hundreds of kilometers to cover, air defense systems are forced to move around, offering permanent protection only to Kyiv. Everyone else in Ukraine, soldiers included make due with temporary deployments that mainly force the orcs to do careful recon before launching attacks - or hit a target from two directions, as apparently happened in Sumy.
Even though Ukraine’s stock of Patriot interceptors is always dangerously low, it’s the limited number of radars and control vehicles available that represent an even bigger problem. The launcher is only one component of the full system and perhaps the most easily replaced - and hidden. Radars and control vehicles, especially their crews, are prize targets which themselves have to be guarded by other air defense systems. Though Ukrainian technicians have reportedly made old S-300 radars work with Patriot systems to some degree, the crosswalk process probably isn’t smooth. The only answer is additional air defense batteries, and fast. Which is why Zelensky is again pleading for them, and what’s more, offering to buy them straight up at $1.5 billion a pop for Patriots. Trouble is, D.C. likely has to give the okay for more of these, which are apparently superior to Aster and far more plentiful.
Using other global demands (Israel) as an excuse to hold back from additional supplies was one of Biden’s tricks - funny, then, that for all Trump’s talk about Ukraine being Biden’s war, he’s treating the purchase - not donation - of air defense systems that can protect children as a huge ask. But European countries and several Gulf States that might be open to hedging their security bets are attractive prospects for sourcing more Patriot batteries, with American refusal probably having consequences D.C. would prefer not to accept. After all, anyone who takes a shot at a NATO country is going to suffer a lot more for the attempt than it could possibly be worth. If Moscow is going to start killing Europeans because their air defenses are in Ukraine, then war was inevitable - and coming much sooner than anyone realized. Moscow will as a natural result soon be short major chunks of its war machine. Europe is not defenseless.
Ten more Patriot batteries, as Zelensky is requesting, would transform Ukraine’s air defense network. Ukrainian defenders of the sky would have far fewer gaps in radar coverage to cope with, something the hopefully imminent arrival of two Swedish AWACS will also help remedy. The image below depicts the coverage of just thirteen (13) Patriot systems in operation - fewer than the total Ukraine would have if ten were added to the present six-seven - the inner 50km ring representing coverage against ballistic targets and the outer 150km showing the kill zone for aircraft and cruise missiles. Even if each of the 4-8 Patriot launchers assigned to a battery is carrying only a quarter of a full combat load, that still means that any orc strike on Ukraine’s biggest cities has to spend a solid $10 million just to guarantee a chance of breaking through to hit a target. A better density of radar coverage will enhance the accuracy of defense shots as well as improve prediction of where hostile weapons are set to land. Those which aren’t set to hit anything important can be ignored. Efficiency will rise, forcing the orcs to spend even more resources per attack to score a hit. The goal is not perfect protection, like you need in naval warfare, but just enough to make Moscow expend a large portion of its arsenal to achieve decisive impacts, something that proved difficult to sustain and was easier to shield civilians against.
It’s also worth noting that certain frontline cities, namely Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Sloviansk, and Kharkiv, if so protected would offer substantial coverage to Ukrainian formations in the field. Also note that the ability to forward deploy enough systems to survive dedicated suppression of air defense campaigns by the orcs means that glide bomb attacks will become ridiculously risky. Attempts to intercept Ukrainian jets near the front line with Sukhois or MiGs will likewise turn into deadly gauntlets for orc pilots.
The first loss of a Ukrainian Viper to hostile fire this week was reportedly the result of no fewer than three multi-million dollar missiles launched at the target fighter. No further details of the circumstances have been released, nor are they likely to come out for some time given the sensitivity of the circumstances. All that is known is that the loss occurred near the front lines, with S-400 ground-launched or R-37 air-launched missiles probably to blame. Considering Ukraine’s effective public announcement the other week of missions unleashing bombs inside of russia, my suspicion is that someone in Moscow decided that ambushing a Viper was a major priority and deployed assets accordingly on the ground and in the sky. As inept as the orcs are when it comes to strategy and operations, they do retain the ability to innovate with tactics. Having an aerial radar switch on suddenly after flying dormant well inside ruscist airspace could be just what the enemy needed to burn through the Viper’s jamming and score a hit. Alternatively, if both air and ground launched missiles were involved and came from different directions, the pilot would face an impossible dilemma, as missile evasion requires precisely-timed turns. If the enemy radar lock was strong enough, even the perfect defensive maneuvers might not matter.
Another factor has to be considered: improvements in the orc ability to counter or even exploit Ukrainian jamming. To jam enemy radar signals, you have to emit your own. This provides a signal that hostile weapons can be set to chase down. Both S-400 and R-37 missiles have very large warheads. Even if their home-on-jam mode is crude, it might be enough to score a kill, especially if the Viper pilot was dodging other weapons. And it is also entirely possible that the orcs played around with their own signals to evade the Viper’s own jammers. They’ve had nine months of exposure to the jamming pods that Ukraine uses, and a vulnerability may have been exploited. Engineers will figure out what happened and fix it, but Viper pilots will have to exhibit additional caution. There’s always so much that can go wrong in any operation, whatever the domain, that it’s sort of amazing anything ever goes right at all. The Ukrainian pilot was given quite a few awards and a posthumous promotion, so I do wonder if some kind of sacrifice was involved during an escort mission. I’d expect Vipers and their jamming pods to be covering more vulnerable bomb-toting Sukhois and MiGs, or even trying to hunt enemy air defenses themselves, Wild Weasel style.
Regardless, more Patriots near the front line and the arrival of AWACS support will only increase the margin of error that Ukraine’s bold pilots enjoy. Provided they get Link-16 or another network to prevent friendly fire incident.

What?! How can little NK possibly have more military production capacity than Russia?!North Korean artillery supplies are preventing Russian defeat in Ukraine,
Pyongyang now provides up to 50% of Moscow’s ammunition requirements and has deployed thousands of troops to Ukraine, fundamentally altering the war’s trajectory and providing North Korea with valuable combat experience against modern weapons systems. North Korea has played a crucial role in sustaining Russia’s war against Ukraine, enabling Moscow to continue its offensive in Donbas and effectively push Ukrainian forces out of parts of the Kursk Oblast. North Korea has dramatically deepened its military and strategic partnership with Russia, marking a significant shift in the global security landscape. Pyongyang has not only supplied Russia with vast quantities of ammunition—covering up to 50% of Moscow’s war needs, including millions of artillery shells, rockets, and ballistic missiles—but has also deployed thousands of troops to support Russian operations in Ukraine.
“It’s fair to say that North Korea has prevented Russia from losing this war. Pyongyang’s contribution has been strategically vital. North Korean artillery shells are a strategic necessity. Without their support, Vladimir Putin would have faced defeat in Ukraine,”
Military expert Yurii Fedorov also notes that Russia’s defense industry is incapable of meeting the army’s demands for ammunition despite significant investments. “Even with huge financial injections and the hiring of hundreds of thousands of new workers, the Russian defense sector still cannot fulfill its most basic wartime needs,” Fedorov stresses.

Notice how the warmongers say that Russia is both losing the war and threatening to overrun Europe? The math doesn't add up.What?! How can little NK possibly have more military production capacity than Russia?!
Define "won"Notice how the warmongers say that Russia is both losing the war and threatening to overrun Europe? The math doesn't add up.
The fact is that Russia has already effectively won the war, and NATO, especially the European leaders, have gone into denial about it.
