I believe Liz and Brace are friends with the red scare girlies as well. I don't know if they're still close or not through. Anna is more racist and ideologically committed to what she does whereas Dasha is more of a grifter who will say anything as long as the check doesn't bounce.

China tests their new Fujian aircraft carrier again, possibly launching j-35s as well. It is unknown if the j-36 has carrier capabilities or not.
South China Morning Post
China’s most advanced aircraft carrier, the Fujian, has undergone an “intensive” eighth sea trial, according to state media.
Its ship-borne fifth-generation J-35 stealth fighters, fitted for catapult launch, have also carried out tests and flights, according to a Saturday report by state broadcaster CCTV.
The report did not specify whether the J-35 jets were being launched from the Fujian.
A local maritime safety administration issued traffic control warnings for Wednesday morning for the area near the mouth of the Yangtze River as the Fujian left the Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai and sailed towards open waters.
The Fujian is the People’s Liberation Army’s third carrier, and its first equipped with advanced electromagnetic catapults. The report said the Fujian would “greatly enhance” the abilities of the Chinese navy in offshore defence as well as long-distance sea escort operations once it entered service.
He also partners with a charity focused on supporting young female athletes via providing free equipment that stores threw away due to damaged packaging. He takes the discarded gear, puts it in new packaging and donates it. See https://fitgirl-repacks.site/sifu/ for more info.
It came from Ft. Detrick and I require no evidence for this belief.
I need the xhs analysis on this. The only reason I can think of for this is that the American ruling class is simply not very bright.
Only tangentially related, but I fully expect Tsinghua University and Peking University to become household names in the global South and quite possibly the West in the near future. The American University system isn't a means of education, but rather a product sold to families. Harvard in particular is moreso a brand than a school and exists to make a profit not to educate. This difference is especially seen in how Chinese universities focus on improvement as opposed to American ones. For universities in China to improve, they increase funding, increase enrollment, increase staff and improve facilities. Meanwhile, for American universities to improve they need to go through a process that I can only describe as high energy marketing bullshit (for example Northeastern's shenanigans). Chinese education is higher throughput, more economical, more difficult, and a cause for the Chinese century.
Capital firm to purchase The Daily Telegraph — Al Jazeera
article text
A consortium led by US investment firm RedBird Capital Partners has agreed to buy the publisher of the United Kingdom’s 170-year-old Daily Telegraph newspaper for about $674m (500 million pounds).
Redbird said it has reached an agreement in principle to become controlling owner of the Telegraph Media Group, ending a lengthy takeover saga for the conservative-leaning newspaper on Friday.
Gerry Cardinale, founder and managing partner of RedBird, said the sale “marks the start of a new era for The Telegraph as we look to grow the brand in the UK and internationally, invest in its technology and expand its subscriber base”.
The Telegraph group, previously owned by the UK’s Barclay family, was put up for sale two years ago to help pay off the family’s debts. It publishes the Daily and Sunday Telegraph newspapers and weekly newsmagazine The Spectator, which all are closely allied to the UK’s Conservative Party.
In 2023, there was an offer to buy the publications from RedBird IMI, a consortium backed by RedBird Capital Partners and Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a member of Abu Dhabi’s royal family and the vice president of the United Arab Emirates.
But the consortium pulled out last year following strong opposition from the UK government, which launched legislation to block foreign state ownership of the British press.
Under the deal, Abu Dhabi’s IMI will take a minority stake of not more than 15 percent in the Telegraph as a member of the consortium. The sale must be approved by British regulators.
RedBird has investments in football team AC Milan, the parent company of Liverpool football club and film production company Skydance.
Telegraph Media Group chief executive Anna Jones said that “RedBird Capital Partners have exciting growth plans that build on our success — and will unlock our full potential across the breadth of our business.”
The Spectator was sold in September to British hedge fund investor Paul Marshall
This will most likely result in the Telegraph being decimated and Red Bird tearing the copper out of the walls.
