Don't fret anons. Q Research broke up with DOAR. Even though DOAR won't accept the break up, after enough time they'll give up and go chase someone else to torture. Till then, filter hard, filter often.
It's a messy break up anons, for them.
If a meme anon can put Kari Lake and a MAGA flag in, that would rock. No way can I even guess how to.
How many criminals did VA and MD release, citing 'Covid'?
It'll get worse before it gets better.
It's true anon. Because they had to be taken out with no warning they feel they have to 'get even'. It's really sad because they're attacking anons who don't even have anything to do with it.
Board admin globals would sure be nice. TY

Update After Week of Intense Talks Between Russia and Ukraine
“We must decisively reject blackmail and never allow aggression and threats to be rewarded. We must resolutely defend, not dilute, our foundational principles and commitments.” stated Mike Carpenter, U.S. Ambassador to the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) on Jan. 13 at talks in Vienna that were held to discuss the demand of the Russian Federation, a member state, for “security guarantees” at the cost of Ukraine.
Carpenter stressed that member states should not tolerate “restrictions on the sovereign right of nations to choose their own alliances.” He rejected the idea of “spheres of influence” whereby larger powerful nations can control the policies of smaller neighbours, and he reminded members that the security of all states is of equal importance.
The diplomat said that all 57 members should listen and discuss to seek workable solutions based upon the founding principles of the OSCE, such as the Helsinki Final Act, which protects the sovereignty, independence, rights, and territorial integrity of nations, and outlines peaceful rules by which nations can cooperate and interact.
U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan was asked to comment on a statement by Ambassador Carpenter that “The drumbeat of war is sounding loud, and the rhetoric has gotten rather shrill,” at a White House press briefing on the same day.
Sullivan said that “the Russians have put tens of thousands of troops in and around Ukraine and occupied territory relative to Ukraine. So, it is certainly the case that the threat of military invasion is high,” and that U.S. officials are acutely aware of who they are dealing with and, “about what the prospects are for potential conflict and potential military escalation by Russia.”
Meanwhile Russia’s TASS news agency reported Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Jan. 14 as saying that at the end of the Cold War there was an agreement that North Atlantic allies would not dictate their will on others. as he said is now occurring. Moscow’s security proposals were being “tactlessly misunderstood,” and it wanted legally binding guarantees from the West about security.
Lavrov asserted that Russia is “not going to endlessly wait for some changes and promises,” and that it can defend its own security in any case.
Lavrov’s statement was issued only hours after massive cyberattacks on Ukrainian government websites.
The Computer Emergency Response Team of Ukraine (CERT-UA) issued a statement “On the night of Jan. 13-14, a number of government websites, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education and Science and others, were hacked. Provocative messages were posted on the main page of these sites.” The content was: “Ukrainians! … All information about you has become public, be afraid and expect worse.”
Kyiv Post was one of the first outlets to share the news that “Foreign Ministry spokesperson Oleh Nikolenko told Reuters it was too early to say who could be responsible for the attack but said Russia had been behind similar attacks in the past.”
Also on Friday, the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine issued a warning that “Russian intelligence agencies are preparing provocations against the soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces” in Transnistria in Moldova and plan to blame Ukraine in a hybrid warfare attempt to create the justification for an invasion of Ukraine. Similar assertions have been made in media about false claims that Ukrainian forces plan to invade occupied Donbas.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken opened on Jan. 13 that de-escalation is needed if there is going to be progress in the talks that have been ongoing this week between the U.S., NATO, the OSCE (allies and partners) and the Russian Federation.
He reiterated that there are two paths forward for Russia, one of diplomacy and dialogue and the other that will bring huge consequences in the event of a further invasion of Ukraine.

Ukraine Says Has 'Evidence' Russia Behind Cyberattack
Ukraine said Sunday it had "evidence" Russia was behind a massive cyberattack that knocked out key government websites this past week, while Microsoft warned the hack could be far worse than first thought. Tensions are at an all-time high between Ukraine and Russia, which Kyiv accuses of having massed troops on its border ahead of a possible invasion. Some analysts fear the cyberattack could be the prelude to a military attack. On Friday, Washington also accused Russia of sending saboteurs trained in explosives to stage an incident that could be the pretext to invade its pro-Western neighbour.
"All the evidence points to Russia being behind the cyberattack," the Ukrainian digital transformation ministry said in a statement. "Moscow is continuing to wage a hybrid war." The ministry urged Ukrainians not to panic, saying their personal information was protected. The purpose of the attack, it added, "is not only to intimidate society. But to also destabilize the situation in Ukraine, halting the work of the public sector and crushing Ukrainians' trust in the authorities."
The Kremlin rejected the claims and said there was no evidence Russia was behind the attack. "We have nothing to do with it. Russia has nothing to do with these cyberattacks," President Vladimir Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, told CNN. "Ukrainians are blaming everything on Russia, even their bad weather in their country," he said in English. Kyiv said late Friday it had uncovered preliminary clues Russian security services could have been behind the cyberattack. The SBU security service said the attacks in the early hours of Friday had targeted a total of 70 government websites.
Microsoft warning
Microsoft warned Sunday that the cyberattack could prove destructive and affect more organizations than initially feared. The U.S. software giant said it continued to analyze the malware and warned it could render government digital infrastructure inoperable. "The malware, which is designed to look like ransomware but lacking a ransom recovery mechanism, is intended to be destructive and designed to render targeted devices inoperable rather than to obtain a ransom," the U.S. software giant said in a blog post. Microsoft said it had not so far identified a culprit behind the attacks but warned that the number of affected organizations could prove larger than initially thought. "Our investigation teams have identified the malware on dozens of impacted systems and that number could grow as our investigation continues," Microsoft said. "These systems span multiple government, non-profit, and information technology organizations, all based in Ukraine. We do not know the current stage of this attacker's operational cycle or how many other victim organizations may exist in Ukraine or other geographic locations."

If we had a standard dough that all anons agreed to and used I'm in like Flynn. (Gerbil?) Short dough? Now's the time for the fucking heroes to step forward and give a fuck.
Sure. I'll take it. Relieve the dork.
I'm coming back to spot bake and fill in just because. Anons united more important than anything else. Baking should be the least of our worries. Let's shake off these dingbats.
