“Inflation is made in Washington because only Washington can create money... What produces it is too much government spending and too much government creation of money and nothing else.”
— Milton Friedman
Milton Friedman:
“We are not governed by the people—that’s a myth that carries over from Abraham Lincoln’s day. We don’t have government of the people, by the people, for the people.”
“We have government of the people, by the bureaucrats, for the bureaucrats.”

BREAKING:
Apart from hitting the oil terminal in Kerch on the Crimean side of the Crimean Bridge, Ukrainian drones have also hit the oil terminal in Port Kavkaz on the “Russian” side of the Crimean Bridge
Port infrastructure was also hit in Port Kavkaz. Truckers watch in horror
Last night, our long-range sanctions targeted the occupiers’ military logistics, oil industry, and air defense. All of this is a just response to Russia’s brutal attacks against our people. I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the Special Operations Forces for their successful work at a distance of about 300 kilometers from the frontline.
Facilities on both sides of the Crimean Bridge were hit: maritime logistics used to transport oil in the Krasnodar region and an oil depot in temporarily occupied Kerch. In addition, military logistics facilities were successfully struck, along with four radar stations belonging to S-400 systems and two Pantsir systems.
I am grateful to all our warriors for their precision and professionalism. Russia understands only strength, and our long-range strength is certainly working for peace. Glory to Ukraine!

Britain has tested long-range weapons that are expected to be supplied to Ukraine and “will not let Moscow get bored”
The systems are reported to carry a warhead of about 250 kg and reach speeds of over 370 miles per hour.
The missiles are capable of striking targets at a distance of around 480 km, according to The Telegraph.
London says the new weapons will complement the Storm Shadow missiles already delivered to Ukraine.
The first deliveries could take place within a year.
Keep an eye on what happens in Moscow over the next 4 weeks.
The Moscow refinery is offline, gasoline shortages are causing lineups, and production is down 25% country-wide vs last year due to drone sanctions.
And Putin's ignoring it all.
This will trigger widespread unrest.🔥
There’s no doubt that Putin fears the return of his army home. That is why he is so afraid of the war ending without victory. And there will be no victory. He is physically afraid of his own army. That is why, if there is no ceasefire backed by specific security guarantees, he will return to war. And this time, others may be the ones under attack.
Today, Ukraine is de facto the second army of NATO – one that is not inferior to the second army in the world. And that is why NATO needs us – specifically us – de jure. This is already a fact recognized by all leaders. Putin will remain in the Kremlin until his death, and he has one goal: the restoration of the Soviet Union. Without Ukraine, this is impossible, and that is why things are so difficult for us.

Green socialism is no more an answer to the world's environmental needs than was the smoke-stack socialism of Eastern Europe which poisoned our rivers, disfigured our buildings and rotted our forests.
