The oligarch raided by the FBI and how Mitch McConnell got the 'Moscow Mitch' nickname
Mitch McConnell's role in preventing Congress in 2019 from locking down sanctions on Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, whose properties in New York and Washington, D.C. were raided by the FBI today, earned him the nickname "Moscow Mitch."

SO, I still can't figure out why the Biden* administration is trying to provoke war with both Russia AND China by opening the NATO door to Georgia and Ukraine (in the west) and promising to defend Taiwan (in the east).
It seems to me that if outright war developed between the USA and either Russia or China, the USA would lose, and definitely if the USA tried to take both on at the same time.
The USA is at least five years behind Russia in "hypersonic" technology (Russia has their hypersonic missiles deployed, the USA is testing various aspects of hypersonic technology right now).
This isn't just a recent move to distract from the Afghanistan debacle, because the USA has been trying to use Ukraine, Georgia, and Taiwan as cat's paws since at least May, secretly (and not so secretly) promising support if any of those nations would take on their relevant neighbor superpowers.
I guess first of all, those small nations would have to be insane to take that on militarily. THEY would be obliterated while the USA would basically still be safe, risking only those forces that our military chooses to commit. There's no way the USA could provide an umbrella to keep those nations safe.
So, more than likely, those small nations' first moves would be political, not military: declare independence, or begin the process of joining NATO. Since those are "red lines" for Russia and China, would their move be military? Because, again, those small nations would be obliterated. Of course, "world reaction" would be strongly against a superpower that destroyed a nation for its politics. Russia would be kicked out from SWIFT. China, too, might be kicked out from SWIFT, unable to spend its trillion dollars of Treasuries and USD.
So Russia and China might, instead, try something different:
Russia might take the coasts of Ukraine and Georgia and embargo those nations, shutting off gas, energy, and food supplies and all trade, China might do the same to Taiwan.
Comrade Signym is always crying about America starting a war with Russia. Never about all Russia does to undermine the United States. Never about all the hostilities perpetrated by Russia against America and even our foreign representatives. That’s why here she’s called Polish Russian Collaborator signym.
And for the record. If America does find itself in a war with Russia the countries listed below will be coming with us. Not that we'd need them. Be afraid comrade signym, be very afraid.

Since Russia began its aggressive actions against Ukraine, Russian officials have accused NATO of a series of threats and hostile actions.
We set out the facts: http://bit.ly/NATOsettingtherecordstr...
NATO's approach to Russia combines strong defence and dialogue. In response to Russia’s aggressive actions against Ukraine, NATO has strengthened its defences and suspended practical cooperation with Russia.
However, NATO continues to keep channels for dialogue open. The NATO-Russia Council, an important platform for dialogue, has met seven times since April 2016. The Council has made progress, by addressing both force posture and military exercises, including through reciprocal briefings. This dialogue contributes to the predictability of our relations.
Fact: NATO is a defensive alliance, whose purpose is to protect our member states. Our exercises and military deployments are not directed against Russia – or any other country.
This myth also ignores geography. Russia's land border is just over 20,000 kilometres long. Of that, less than one-sixteenth (1,215 kilometres), is shared with NATO members. Russia has land borders with 14 countries. Only five of them are NATO members.
Outside NATO territory, the Alliance only has a military presence in Kosovo and Iraq. T

Why Russian and Chinese warships teaming up to circle Japan is a big deal
A joint Chinese and Russian naval exercise, in which a flotilla of 10 warships completed a near circle around Japan's main island, has been touted by the two countries as a means of ensuring stability in a volatile region.
But analysts say the drills are likely to have the opposite effect, potentially reigniting regional tensions and enhancing claims by the Japanese government that it needs to increase military spending to counter Chinese aggression.
China-Russia naval patrol in the western Pacific, saw the vessels sail through the Tsugaru Strait that separates Japan's main island and its northern island of Hokkaido, before heading down the nation's eastern coast and then back toward China through the Osumi Strait off the southern Japanese island of Kyushu.

The US and Australia have agreed on a rotational deployment of US aircraft in Australia, and the sustainment and maintenance programs that go with it - this involves both countries leaning on allied partners and defence primes, like Lockheed Martin.

Russian Hackers Used Home Networks to Evade Detection
(Bloomberg) -- When an elite team of Russian government hackers attempted to break into hundreds of intelligence targets this year, they used a clever tool to cover their tracks: the mobile and home computer networks of unsuspecting Americans, according to several cybersecurity experts.
