Summary
The White House has directed the State and Treasury Departments to draft a proposal for lifting some U.S. sanctions on Russia as part of Trump’s effort to restore ties and end the Ukraine war.
The proposal could ease restrictions on select Russian entities and oligarchs, though it’s unclear what the U.S. would receive in return.
Trump has signaled openness to sanctions relief despite previously threatening harsher measures.
Talks between U.S. and Russian officials have intensified, with economic cooperation, including rare earth minerals, emerging as a key topic.
You Americans need to prove that 2A is useful and shoot this treasonous cunt.
About 30 percent of Americans are treasonous cunts and the others have no idea what’s happening
Only 22% voted for him, and a large portion of those fall into the ‘no idea what’s happening’ camp.
Trump is malicious. Most Americans are just plain ignorant.
The moron that tried used an AR-15 which shoots a tiny little bullet and not the appropriate calibre. If he had known anything about ballistics we wouldn’t be dealing with this.
Also, don’t aim for the head. Jesus. Aim for the chest.
And why only one shot? Keep pulling that fucking trigger.
That’s what you get with a bad education system.
I was taught how to consider bullet velocity and trajectory by the government when I was 20.
You probably also were taught to use at least a 30 calibre bullet like the M21 (which is what the Secret Service used to return fire)
I wasn’t being trained as an assassin.
Choosing the calibre wouldn’t be my prerogative.
What we were shooting with was just 7.62. Which now that I check equates to a .30cal actually. Never knew that, huh.
I did handle some .50cals, but not a sniper rifle, and I don’t know how sneaky I could be with a tripod mounted .50cal AA machine gun.
Tldr basic conscription but I did go the longer way voluntarily and am an NCO. I just recalled some basic ballistics lectures from your comment.
The AR bullet is less than one third the weight and much smaller than the 7.62 round which is why I said it was a shitty choice (and specifically why we still use Korea era armament to this day in the M 21, and 60, mini gun etc (NATO 7.62).
NATO 5.56 Is for ground troops and is designed more to incapacitate
7.62 and 5.56 is basically just a choice.
Thats what made us Finns joining NATO so hard (as in a side from all the politics and just practical matters), because we use 7.62 for all ground troops, especially because Russia uses it as well and wed like to be able to scavenge their ammo if they try any special military operations this way.
We’ve fucking tons of our own make of a AK variant, the RK. RK62 is decent but the sights are shit, RK95TP is awesome. That was my main weapon, had to keep a -62 for 2 months when I was in a poorer regiment for trainining. (Their boots sucked as well everyone from our brigade got a permit from the doc to wear holiday boots for normal service because they were just so much more comfy, like walking on air vs walking in glass.)
You don’t have to be sneaky, just not fucking miss like the gormless cretin that last tried.
I mean, if you’re not sneaky and you’re setting up a .50cal turret where they’re holding a speech from POTUS, I’m pretty sure someone would have some notes on that.
I mean I’m Finnish, not American and I do understand American gun culture is pretty liberal, but is it that liberal?
Edit but oh boy would I fucking love to open up on that cunt on a stage. CHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOKCHOK
But he missed because the bullet he used was too small and too light and didn’t have a proper ballistic trajectory
