it will probably not look like a world war ii convoy, i don't think you are going to see a tom hanksvoy going through. i think instead what you will see is patrol vessels set up between the main shipping line, which is a narrow little channel between yemen and djibouti, and basically pickets are set up and then they will run ships through that area, but it will take out a few warships to be able to set up that guard. and do these kind of shipping convoys these protection missions, do these happen frequently? if you go back to the 1980s during the tanker war between iran and iraq between 1980 and �*88, you saw a50 tankers get hit and it really wasn't until very late in that war when kuwait decided to reflag their vessels to the us registry that you saw the us navy take an active role in escorting vessels. the most recent example we have was somali piracy where in the gulf of aden, us and allied warships would patrol the area, but there, you were dealing with pirates and small boats. here, you are dealing with drones, cruise missiles, and most dangerously, ballistic missiles. as you de

i don't want to see tom hanks go to jail.be fair, we can't say for sure whether biden ever did anything shady with his son's business dealings. her story has changed over time, but we do know that republicans don't actually give a shit about people profiting off the presidency, because donald trump was the president! he had so many scams going on, running the country was basically his side hustle. republicans just want a headline that says "biden impeached." they don't care if it's legitimate. it's like how i told the art department to make this magazine cover of me winning "sexiest bitch of all time" in enormous b-17 quarterly magazine. you don't have to speculate about whether this is politically motivated because you have a g.o.p. congressman counting, chanting up trump 2024. at this whole thing is such a piece of theater, i'm surprised lauren boebert is not a crowd giving someone a handy. it seems like an impeachment is just something that's going to happen to like every president now, which is not at all how it's suppose

to filming, i asked a question, i say, i generally i really love tom hanks, he is of course an actor.ell, extremely pleasant, i wanted come straight to moscow, find money for the project, but we don’t always succeed, and tom hanks, by the way, is already orthodox, having lived and worked there in america, understanding these people, this mentality, this culture and so on, you , probably, even at the current events, you also look at the whole event with a little different depth, well, look, we understand that, well in general, in depth, who is at war with us, yes, because , well, yes, it is at war. when i see people who fly to kiev and go support the regime that exists there, support zelensky, unfortunately, i personally know some of them, like angeli. what about the events of the fourteenth year, about the coup, about the next, about the next period of 8 years, what was happening in the donbass, what was happening, and they cannot simply assess what is happening, for the most part they are placed in these conditions, like would be from the political side so that they would thus perfor

tom hanks." [ light laughter ] the point is, after the civil war, congress ratified the section of theent in order to keep secessionists who were disloyal to the united states out of government and the reason for that, because much like trump supporters today, southern states were just immediately sending unrepentant secessionists back to congress like nothing had happened. as one historian explained, "they fight a war over slavery and lose it. they lose in april of 1865 but by december of 1865, they are sending back to congress people like alexander stephens, the former vice president of the confederacy. it's unbelievable they thought they could do that they are completely unrepentant. and they are used to exercising power. that's right, the confederates who seceded and fought a deadly war that tore the country apart tried to act like nothing happened they basically pulled a george costanza. trying to show up to work after he quit. [ light laughter ] now, i know i'm really stretching the imagination here, but let's just think for a second an unrepentant insurrectionist who tried to ov
