No, no! You are right!

Only 100mph winds spread fires!

Actually, winds were ~ 40mph, but you are correct. 40mph winds will not spread a fire.

So far no reports of any homes burned down is SC fires 🤷‍♂️

It's a pretty confusing issue.

There was nothing that would have helped, like pre-positioning firefighters and fire fighting equipment in the area where it would not have helped.

Yet......... With eye toward L.A.’s recovery, Governor Newsom issues executive order directing fast action to clear debris, prepare for mudslides and flooding | Governor of California

"Additionally today, the Governor announced California has prepositioned firefighting personnel and assets throughout Southern California in anticipation of another round of severe fire weather expected to start tomorrow through Wednesday. Prepositioned assets – including 60 engines, 8 helicopters, and 13 dozers and water tender trucks – have been directed to Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego counties.

Ah...so it's the SENATORS that want to keep this war going. Like Senators Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Chris Murphy (D-CT), Peter Welch (D-VT), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), and Chris Van Hollen (D-MD)?

That's why they hate Trump trying to end this RussoUke war?

No, nothing can be done.

Carolina winds were MUCH lower, not really enough to spread a fire.

The National Weather Service has released the highest wind reports from Saturday. Wake County had a 38 mph top wind speed while Fayetteville topped the region with 39 mph.

Quote from Bronk

We are not Europe you want Military personnel on the ground just in case …. Work out a deal with them .

Perspective on Euro military might:

China’s new supercarrier will outgun the entire UK armed forces. It may visit us soon

Quote from definitely-not-indy

The only way to get Russians to compromise is another several million casualties.

You may be right.

But placing preconditions on negotiations like Ukraine joins NATO or some such guarantees no ending.

As Rubio said, people need to grow up

At the moment we’re still sending money and weapons.

I saw the bit about >possibly< stopping weapons like Biden actually did to Israel when Israel didn’t do a ceasefire when Joey Bananas ordered them to do so.

I think that’s a Trump trial balloon to remind the Z, the Ukes and the EU/NATO to get off their dead asses and get this peace process started.

As Rubio pointed out you can’t set preconditions that everyone knows Putin will not accept. You don’t negotiate in the world press before you get both parties to the table.

In his defense EVERYBODY knows nazis and commies and facists (but I repeat myself) in 1941 were all enthusiastic about putting America first in all their endeavors.

Just like today, right?

lol, such bullshit

Rubio on This Week with George Steponmydickalotonopoulis, something all the pearl clutchers need to understand.

“If this was a Democrat that was doing this, everyone would be saying, well, he’s on his way to the Nobel Peace Prize. This is absurd. We are trying to end a war. You cannot end a war unless both sides come to the table, starting with the Russians. And – and that – that is the point the president has made. And we have to do whatever we can to try to bring them to the table to see if it's even possible.


I'm not promising you it's possible. I'm not telling you it's 90 percent likely. I'm saying it's zero percent likely if we don't get them to a negotiating table.

And the sooner everybody grows up around here and figures out that this is a bad war that’s heading in a bad direction with death and destruction, and all kinds of danger surrounding it that could spiral into a broader conflict. The sooner people grow up and realize that, I think the more progress we're going to be able to make.”

I would say it’s completely invalid.

Rubio gets it. Not so the Deathocrat pols or the EU buffoons.

"How does it end? It's very simple. The only way it ends is if Vladimir Putin comes to a negotiating table. And right now President Trump is the only person on earth who has any chance whatsoever of bringing him to a table to see what it is he would be willing to end the war," he said. "Now, maybe their demands will be unreasonable. We don't know. But we have to bring them to the table."

Bunch of fucking idiots.

OF COURSE the Ukes will participate at the table. That’s how you negotiate an end to the war.

BOTH parties meet discuss solve.

The trick is to get them to the table and start.

How do you get them to NOT get to the table? By setting preconditions that you KNOW are unacceptable to one or both sides.

Oh yeah, Putin will eagerly welcome troops from NATO countries on his border. Put that out there now as non-negotiable.

Stupid Euro clowns

Oh HELL yes!

Slap the shit out of that cunt please Mr. Grenell

So nice X doesn’t ban truth to power since E took over

“500 million Europeans are asking 300 million Americans to defend them against 140 million Russians. [...] Europe today lacks the belief that we are truly a global force.”

It’s not just Europe that lacks that belief.

I’m sure the Russkies, the Chinkcoms, the Norks, the Iranians and Houthis as well as Trump, Vance and more than half the population of the USA don’t believe all the Europeans together can form a truly global force

Hmmmm… an Obamessiah op?

Would not surprise me at all.

They all obviously haven’t learned anything.

Yep, spot on

Dear Haltbakk Bunkers, as you have decided not to supply fuel to US forces, the USA will not be able defend Norway under the NATO charter.

You’re on your own Bjorn.

That’s what I’d send them 😂

Again, he has to get them to the table. If that means letting Putin have his dreams and talking nice and also tamping down Z’s demands, that’s what has to be done.

As T pointed out, Putin has the stronger cards. Z has basically no cards at all. This will go on until the west funds the Ukes until there are no more Ukes left to fight.

Putin has Norks coming, as many as his oil to NK will buy. Where does Z get more troops?

So T is doing what HE thinks will get them both to the table to START a process to end this.

What we think of his methods and remarks doesn’t matter. Remember though that he is the first of all world pols that has at least tried to get this process started.

I’m willing to wait and see how it plays out. If he just gets them to the table that’s almost worth a Nobel right there.
