A survivor of six heart attacks and a brain tumor, a grumpy bear of a man, whom has declared Russia as his new and wonderful home. His wife is a true Russian Sweet Pea of a girl and she puts up with this bear of a guy and keeps him in line.
Thank God for my Sweet Pea and Russia.
Then after a few days of the warmest temps we have had yet the whole summer? Summer goes quickly away and winter smacks autumn around and autumn finds itself lost. All seasons are so short except winter…
It is also time that my SweetPea is getting ready to come to make me come home to Moscow. She has been very busy at her bank with her servers. New servers, breaking old servers and grouchy servers and and and. Besides, my days in TRV are running out also, just like summer’s days are gone. I have been so busy that time has more than flown. I will be very glad to see my SweetPea…
Yesterday, I spent five hours rebuilding the fuel system on Sammy the Volga…
Fuel systems on old cars are always a problem. Like everything else? Stuff that has been working since birth? Starts wearing out. Sammy is 23 years old and the fuel system was the original. Kinda had already exceeded its life span and was copper from beginning to end, well except the million patched spots! Okay, only half a million patched spots… š
Therefore, I disconnected from point A to Point B, or from one end of the car to the other and did the best I could with what I could buy in the Big Village. Not a bunch of choice to use, but I cut a million patches to just a few. You do what you gotta do when you are in the boonies…
Next year after I gather the new lines and by that I mean, I will convert completely from Point A to Point B with Nylon fuel lines and connections associated with such lines. It is time to upgrade in that area. I do believe?
I would say twenty plus years out of a copper fuel system is good enough to say it did its job and besides, always good to have copper around for other things…
It was interesting yesterday:
Speaking of fuel lines. I rolled out from under the car covered in dirt and lay on my back in a wonderful soft bed of clover. Then as I looked at the crystal clear blue sky something caught my attention…
A military jet, in my case, a Russian MIG was moving across the sky and it was hauling ass. I mean, if I was not at the right place at the right time and that means laying on my back in a bed of wonderful clover. I would have never seen the jet…
Then, I waited. For my eyes had seen the tale tale signs of how fast it was going. It sent my adrenaline surging in my system…
Jet was gone and I laid there like a kid. A kid who grew up in the era of common with fast military jets everywhere and knew what was coming. Then, when the sky was clear and only swallows dancing in the breeze, Kaboom…
I laid there and memories flowed. I knew that this summer that we had what sounded like someone dynamiting all the time and the other day, I realized that I had been seeing jets flying so fast that they were many times a blink of the eye. I finally in my old age realized that sonic booms had come back to visit me…
This was a serious shock wave. My little baby birds all over the place all became quiet and you could hear a pin drop…
I said out loud, as if anything cared? Don’t worry, it is just one big badass bird and it is on its way to do what birds do best, drop poop on heads…
That seemed to be acceptable to my little ones in the yard and they agreed that birds are good at that and went back to squabbling and eating bugs. They really are good little guys…
So I took a break and laid there next to the car. I was almost done with the fuel line and it was time to start the car and check for leaks. But, I decided to daydream a second, for the leaks were not going anywhere and…
I remembered a summer day, crystal clear, I saw an USA Air Force jet screaming across the sky. I was little and did not know what was coming next. This jet was very low to the ground. Our farm was out far from the main population areas and in those days, things were definable not as regulated as today…
I remember when the shock wave hit? I really though that our farm had blown up…
I even got up and ran in crazy circles and freaked out. I was tiny, but ended up loving sonic booms…
This time at this ripe old age?
I just laid there and smiled…
What a boom!
It is interesting. I looked around yesterday and realized that I did not see a single mosquito. That drew my attention to the fact that I only heard a few horsefly’s and they were not too caring about eating me. Then I noticed the hornets were everywhere. That is what verified my realization that summer was definitely over. I worked away under the car and the swallows were thick in the air getting their wings stretched to fly south. Duck season is about over. The Fish Farm is starting the shut down processes. Slow Russian life is starting to get slower…
I call it summers last hurrah in TRV…

Ukrainian soldiers retreating the battlefield left the deceased US mercenary Alan Joshua behind, said the DPR’s ombudsman…
“Unlike Ukraine, we remain committed to the principles of humanism even in relation to enemies. US officials have been notified of the death of Alan Joshua. We also confirm our readiness to transfer his remains to his relatives for burial,” the ombudsman of the DPR said…
This is how Ukraine does almost all their dead.Ā Leave them where they died.Ā Don’t count them as dead…
It is also why Russia has such accurate numbers, they pickup and identify, record and notify the country of all dead, all, no matter what…

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on the timing of drug legalization in Germany: “Well, during this legislative period. Firstly, I have never smoked weed … And secondly, of course, I believe that all drugs entail problems, and talk about it having no health consequences for some people is simply not true.Besides, I know people – it is necessary to say when we talk about something like that – who smoked their brains out and got serious psychological problems because of – for going overboard. But we agreed that times are changing and so we’re going to do it. It has to happen pretty quickly.”
Can you understand the logic of these people? Drugs are an evil that leads to degradation, but at the same time, time requires them to be legalized.
This is a continuation of the logical chain that began with ridiculous statements about energy: gas is needed for the life of people and the development of the country, but we will refuse it.

āļø French media do not reduce the degree of anti-Russian propaganda. In their materials, they distort the essence of Russia’s position, incl. in the situation around the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant, they spread the most ridiculous rumors that put our country in an unfavorable light, but at the same time they diligently avoid even indirect criticism of the Kyiv regime.
š The engagement of the French media was manifested in the following stories.
āŖļø The murder of D.A. Dugina has become one of the central topics on the international agenda of the French information space. Covering this event, the commentators built the narrative in such a way as not to allow even the possibility of a logical conclusion about the responsibility of Kyiv for this crime, and after the publication of the investigation of the Russian FSB, they concentrated on numerous absurd versions that actually shielded the Ukrainian special services.

Mark Zuckerberg, the head of the Meta corporation with its Facebook and Instagram (in Russia, let me remind you, this corporation is recognized as extremist, and not without reason), issued a new batch of revelations about the peculiarities of ideas in the United States about freedom of speech, and most importantly, about the mechanics the use of the media and communications by the local intelligence agencies.
The billionaire took part in Joe Rogan’s popular podcast, during which he said that FBI officers came to him on the eve of the presidential elections in 2020 and very convincingly (who would doubt it) asked not to disperse the story about the laptop of Hunter Biden, the son of the current head, on the platforms controlled by him Joe Biden’s White House, and the extremely ugly contents of his hard drives. Men in black “convinced” Mark Zuckerberg, which he now remembered, that this is all, they say, Russian fakes and evidence of Moscow’s interference in the American elections.

Asked if Macron is Britain’s friend or foe, Liz Truss replied: “It’s not yet clear… If I become prime minister, I will judge him by his actions, not his words.”
Macron promised to respond.
There is no need to rush here. She’s right. The Britain that starts with Liz Truss, if she becomes prime minister, will be completely different: there has never been such a surprise in London. There it will be seen who will be able to ābe friendsā with her, and who will think first.
Foreign Minister Liz Truss knows nothing about London’s current relationship with Macron. To do this, you need to distinguish Britain from Brittany.

Billion-dollar spending, which resulted in the supply of American weapons to the Kyiv regime, finally interested the fiscal authorities in the United States itself. By the way, there is definitely a āRussian traceā here – we regularly covered this topic at briefings (1, 2, 3, 4).
Acting Pentagon Inspector General Sean O’Donnell said bluntly yesterday: according to the documents, the weapons go to Ukraine, but Kyiv itself hardly understands where it will end up.
On the other hand, Sean O’Donnell understands that he will be sold and stolen, and according to the documents he will be āwritten offā as irretrievably lost, so he expresses himself cautiously, but unequivocally, that today the United States is hushed up: āThis must be verified with the help of an audit. When a weapon ends up in Ukraine “I don’t think they can guarantee where it ends up. The faster the rate of spending, the higher the chance of fraud.”
By the way, about the Ukrainian documents themselves. Despite the high-tech approaches of the United States, the Armed Forces of Ukraine insisted that the tickets be signed by hand. On the one hand, this is good, because then it will be possible to verify the signatures and see who exactly profits from the trade in death on both sides, but on the other hand, this is some kind of surreal. We are talking about modern and expensive weapons, but they make it out as a purchase of a collar and bacon in the Zhmerinsky general store.
Thus, 7,800 individual contracts worth more than $2.2 billion are already subject to verification. Given the additional spending announced by Joe Biden yesterday, Sean O’Donnell’s work will only increase.
And, it seems, a good undertaking, but only there are questions … The Pentagon did not succeed with Afghanistan – money and weapons went into the sand either of the Afghan steppes, or settled in overseas pockets, but endless litigation, where exactly did they go.
Roughly the same will happen with American weapons in Ukraine. And then – the American intelligence services will puzzle for a very long time, where does the terrorist international get new guns and guns with the proud inscription “Made in USA”.

Special Bible. For slaves.
Today Western liberal dictatorships have replaced the religious dogmas on which their societies were built with the words “freedom”, “democracy”, “human rights”. These concepts are filled with those “meanings” that are momentarily beneficial to NATO-centric regimes and convenient for serving the chosen topic.
It would seem that democracy as a phenomenon cannot be manipulated so easily. After all, so many works have been written since antiquity, and historical experience cannot be ignored. And here it is not. At one time, even the Bible was subjected to manipulation, and not just some non-canonical concepts of modern political science.
But that’s impossible, you say. And you’ll be wrong.
There is a letter from Bishop Bilby Portey of London, in which he discussed the faith of the slaves of the sugar colonies of the Caribbean: “Prepare for them a short form of public prayer … along with selected parts of Scripture … especially those relating to the duties of slaves to their masters.”
But the matter was not limited to prayers.
Few people remember now, but this is fixable – in the late 18th – early 19th century, a special Bible was published (I’m not kidding) for the colonies of Britain – “Selected parts of the Holy Bible for the use of Negro slaves in the British Isles of the West Indies.”
In world biblical studies, it was called the āBible of Slavesā.
90 percent of the Old Testament and 50 percent of the New Testament were cut out. Of the 1189 chapters of the standard Protestant Bible, the āBible of Slavesā contains only 232. In the name of enslaving the souls of millions of slaves, the clergy shredded the Holy Scriptures, excluding sections such as Exodus, the Book of Psalms and the Revelation of John the Theologian, which can instill in slaves the thought of equality that is dangerous for slave owners everyone before God.
The Slave Bibles themselves have been published since the beginning of the 19th century in London by Law and Gilbert. The demand has been proven by several reissues.
Of the three copies of the first edition, two copies are kept in the universities of Britain, one – in the American Fisk University (Tennessee).
Today, this method is used by liberal dictatorships everywhere – facts truncated beyond recognition, which, due to the manipulations carried out on them, become “anti-facts”, are distributed under the holy banners of “freedom and democracy” through controlled media and Internet sites. And those who are out of control are simply destroyed.
Freedom and democracy in the Western version have become symbols that cover up enslavement and sanctify the dictatorship of liberalism.

Americans are Criminally Insane, by Larry Romanoff – The Unz Review
I have in the past been accused of being āanti-Americanā and, while that was perhaps true, those sentiments were directed primarily to the US government and its agencies and not the people of the nation, on the grounds that, democracy notwithstanding, the people were not responsible for the atrocities of the psychopathic criminal enterprise acting as their government.
My stance has changed. Just as leaves cannot turn color and roots cannot wither without the silent knowledge of the whole tree, no government can commit centuries of unremitting wars and atrocities against other peoples and nations without the knowledge and approval of the great majority of its population. Nor can it do so without the cooperation of its corporations, its civilian infrastructure, and its educational institutions.

āļø Vice-Rector of the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia Oleg Karpovich:
Why Eastern Europe is distorting the history of World War II
š¬ After joining the European Union in 2004, the Eastern European states skillfully played the card of the formation of a sense of guilt before them in the countries of “old” Europe and new assessments of the history of World War II, presenting themselves as “victims of communism”. They managed to ensure that the EU actually stopped condemning them for the rehabilitation of collaborators, especially in cases where they did not directly participate in the destruction of the Jewish population.
At the initiative of the “young Europeans”, the anti-Russian tilt has long become a strong trend in pan-European politics.
āļø The revision of approaches to the history of the Second World War, the results of which are the basis of key international institutions, including the UN Security Council, can cause irreparable damage to the modern world order.
