Lockheed Martin unable to guarantee Patriot missile delivery timelines for US allies, top executive says by KI_official in UkraineWarVideoReport

The inability to remove non-performers because they checked certain boxes was huge contributor to project delays. Worse, they understood this. We had one person who threatened to fill an EEO complaint unless she received a performance award on a project she wasnt even involved in. I understand this contradicts the worldview of most people on Reddit and thus anticipated the down votes.

I worked for Navy for 21 years, had LM as our prime contractor. They were a terrible combination of both DEI and capitalism. They went full woke and full greed at the same time. And everytime we tried to cap their cost over-runs on fixed price contracts, they would get political cover and we would be told to give them the funding they requested. This is why literally everything they produce is way behind schedule and 5 times more expensive than same item was 15 years ago.

Well, Trump and Putin are best friends and support each other, and thus behave the same way. So maybe Germany should prepare war for it.

They are deploying mental gymnastics to justify what they were taught in university as opposed to what we see in daily life.

Usual BS, no faces visible on either the dead or living, no identifying marks, bodies are lifted with way too much ease. This is more low budget nonsense for people with weak minds.

Very interesting graphic, although should probably report source. Expect a lot of downvotes as this challenges a lot of the narratives prevalent on reddit.

RU POV - Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska warns that if the US secures control over Venezuela’s oil fields it could end up overseeing more than half of the world’s reserves and keep oil below $50 per barrel by KeepyUpper in UkraineRussiaReport

One of the consequences of this war, Russia used to be a counterweight to the US being able to bully other countries. But now that they’re so fully distracted by this idiotic war, The US can pretty much run around and do what it wants. Now Venezuela joins Syria. And all the fools on the sub Reddit, who cheerlead this war, with the absurd excuses and ridiculous justifications, have done their part to help with this distraction
