A bipartisan group of Senators led by Bernie Sanders has written a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin demanding an update on the department's efforts to investigate corporate price gouging.
Responsible Statecraft, the online magazine of the Quincy foundation, has exposed the big time fleecing of the taxpayers by the military industrial complex where for example Boeing charged 36,640 dollars a piece for 11 trash cans (evaluated at 350 dollars a piece) for a total of more than 400,000 dollars and Raytheon (RTX) increased the price of a Stinger missile from 25,000 dollars to more than 400,000 dollars and the list goes on.

Russian dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza, who was jailed for 25 years after criticising President Vladimir Putin and the war in Ukraine, has been taken to a prison hospital, his wife says.
Mr Kara-Murza, 42, has accused Russian authorities of trying to poison him in 2015 and 2017.
He has criticised President Vladimir Putin over the Russian government's crackdown on dissent and the war in Ukraine.
He had also played a key role in persuading Western governments to sanction Russian officials for human rights abuses and corruption.
The US state department has described Mr Kara-Murza as "yet another target of the Russian government's escalating campaign of repression".

Even though the russian losses are fewer than the average of late, I think that for a good while, the russian casualties have numbered considerably fewer injured than dead or left to die without hope of saving.
If the reports of growing discontent and rebellion against officers can be believed, combined with what we know about the quality of russian forces.
I hope that Ukraine can take advantage of the dry season and make good on their successes before the rains and snow comes again.

Morning. The MoD needs to push back on any US overreach and say sort your own house out before telling us what to do or not to do.

[@jamieallen3083]

The US overreach is because they have the responsibility of nuclear apocalypse. The United States is the only country that has to worry about or decide if they use nuclear weapons and possibly kill millions of people. Just imagine how hard it would be for anybody is Russia say use a nuke and killed 40,000 people. It's not going to be Great Britain that attacks back or nukes back it's going to be the United States. They say with great power comes great responsibility but you can also reverse that with great responsibility comes great power.

[@gregwatkins2525]

I speculate that multi national energy and mining corporations don’t want Russia to lose and exert their lobbing effort on the Biden administration to prevent a defeat of Russia. They have established connections with energy and mining interest in Russia and don’t want to risk chancing that to a do over. Democrats in the US are highly dependent on corporate funding of elections and won’t risk losing that support.

[@laurencehastings7473]

A few points of clarification. Supplying equipment is one thing but using it in battle conditions is quite another. For logistical reasons it's essential to keep equipment standardised within units as far as possible. Running various types of kit parallel is extremely detrimental to logistics. Ammo, spares, technical support and ultimately experience become logistical nightmares. Multiple chains of supply are necessary simultaneously resulting in an overbloated ration of support troops to fighting units. Warfare is chaotic at the best of times so it's best to adhere to the KISS system. Keep It Stupidly Simple. Even crew training can become a challenge. In the heat of battle it's essential to be able to react and perform without thinking, to be effective . Mistakes and hesitation are lethal so concentration is paramount. You should , ideally, never be in a situation where you have to remind yourself as to which type of equipment you are currently operating and how it functions.

[@joostandhisband9648]

[@thierryschmidlin6936]

@@surpriseitsus9622 Hi Lynn, all those tanks were designed to fight in West Germany at the border with the Warshaw Pakt. The terrain conditions, the road configuration & infrastructures are fully different compared with Ukraine. They also worked well in Iraq because it's very dry and the desert is not sandy but hard. So no problems there except the ennemy. Each device has it' strength and it's weaknesses. Bradleys in great numbers are better for Ukraine than Abrams. My opinion for sure.

[@BillFerdinand]

its plain idiocy by the US not to let Ukraine attack Russian military targets that are being used to attack Ukraine. This is exactly the same philosophy the US used in Vietnam as bombing North Vietnam was off limits unless specifically allowed and approved by President Johnson. It wasn't until President Nixon was elected and changed the policy allowing North Vietnam to be bombed that ultimately brought them to the negotiating table. Its time to let the Ukraine prosecute the war to allow them to appropriately defend their country.
