After the staggering cost of military expenditure in terms of equipment and material, the vast cost in lives that Putin has already squandered and an economy fully turned over to a full time war footing, the current US POTUS, finally losing his rag, 'threatens' his portrait gifting buddy with... tariffs!
Tariffs on what un-sanctioned war economy leveraging products, exactly?
Caviar, Vodka?
.... but the POTUS is VERY ANGRY!!
. Is this supposed to be reassuring? Is Putin now quaking in his fur lined boots?
Apologies, but aside from when he's mocking opponents, when its the POTUS *not* stamping his foot and threatening someone somewhere? (preferably a previously friendly nation, or a journalist)
Is the most swingeing retaliation threat the POTUS can offer an invading anti-democratic, autocratic murderous and expansionist dictator who's serially wiping his backside with the so-called and already highly compromised 'peace-deal'... the SAME THING he's doing.... to his closest allies?

Get our American cousins off of high fructose corn syrup and ultra processed foods and they'll live on average to be over 85, orange skins included. I've just returned from a work trip to Florida and the obesity, man alive.

UK (or British) is a passport. English is a people or ethnicity. I consider myself English by blood, culture, ancestry and language; Canadian and British by nationality.

I just got home from touring Gulf Coast military museums spanning New Orleans, Pensacola, Alabama, and Mississippi. It's no wonder drugs like Wegovi are in such high demand. This goes into unhealthy lifestyles outside the purview of the forum here, but yeah, man alive, this is a problem that is bad for the nation.
Avoiding processed foods has been a conscious dietary choice of mine for 25 years or so now. If I can't pronounce it out of my mouth, I don't put it in there.

A wooden warhead? Reminds me of the Blue Circle ballast, ahem radar in the early Panavia Tornadoes. Didn't the Luftwaffe use concrete bombs when supplies ran short? Concrete bomb - Wikipedia. I suppose even with a wooden warhead there's the kinetic energy of the weapon itself.Russia launches Shahed drone with wooden warhead

I suspect they are used more as a decoy to flood the anti aircraft defenses in a particular area. But I could be wrong about that. It could also be the officer in charge was ordered to launch a certain number of missals for the operation, and he only had 90% of the ordered amount with warheads? Pure speculation on my part. But you see how he could report 100% obedience to the orders he was given.
