[QUOTE=TWGL1;5432778]Ah I get it now.
Yesterday, as the pro-Russian MAGA crowd scrambled around for an alternative justification for Wagner's actions the best they could come up with was that it was a CIA led psyops funded by $6.2 billion unaccounted for in the Pentagon's books.
Across three memes/videos/posts you supplied information that Wagner's actions were likely to have been controlled by a CIA psyops funded by $6.2 b unaccounted for in the Pentagon's books.
Still now we know the money is still in the Pentagon's books congratulations on your joke.

Economic expert one day, political strategist the next, we are so lucky to have you on the Cardiff City Message Board. Giving your advice and wisdom for free and helping to put right the opinions of others, it's a noble cause.
Bit out of character for you to be supportive of TWGL1 I have to say (that was a joke btw).
I don't think TWGL1 actually stated an opinion, it was more intimated through the medium of meme and YouTube video. Whilst you are here though do you believe the tosh he posted or are you more with the mainstream on this one?
The poster in question (his name was originally " " on the tip of my tongue but just cannot remember it) was always
going on about GOLD, how right he was on this topic but was eventually not surprisingly bullied off here (using that name anyway) the poster may well be here under a new name
Reminds me of when i was a daft teenager (As opposed to a daft middle aged bloke) When i was tempted to call one of those betting tip lines from one of the Tabloids. Anyway, i was on the phone for about ten minutes while the recorded message went around the houses, medical history, dogs name, what he had for tea etc, before i was finally given the 'Red Hot' Tip It was an odds on favourite at Newbury and the Phone call cost £2,50 per minute. And the horse came 3rd. My old man was going to kill me when the bill came through, i had to live in the (Locked) bathroom for a week
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

He's obviously going through a manic phase.
[QUOTE=TWGL1;5432813]tbh I don't know what I am disagreeing with. You posted some memes and comments alleging a CIA psyops with $6.2b of unaccounted Pentagon money. When I pointed out the $6.2 b stuff doing the rounds in the MAGAsphere had been thoroughly debunked you called me a "melt" as I clearly hadn't realised you were joking. Now apparently it was your "opinion" after all.
You and your fact-checking

So let me get this straight, you have chosen to ignore the telegraph link as it doesn’t fit your conscious bias , predictable.
Bizarre,
The Telegraph link seems a factual explanation of what happened yesterday. I have no beef with it unless you can point out the bits that support your opinion.
To which you replied along the lines that this was a waste of that $6 billion that the Pentagon had problems accounting for. Alluding that this was the wasted money to pay for the coup that never was.
I posted a fact checker that clearly identifies why there was a $6 billion discrepancy on the over $100b drawdown that Congress had approved for military and non-military aid to the Ukraine.
On the off-chance you didn't read it because it didn't fit your conscious bias (whatever that is), the Pentagon had been valuing the stock of military materials like Bradleys at replacement cost (what it costs to buy a new one) rather than net present value (initial purchase cost minus depreciation) for all the things sent to Ukraine (assets off the books) in 2022 and 2023.
The difference between these two figures is $6.2 billion. This is now available to draw down for future arms and aid supplies within the envelope that Congress agreed.
Some idiot on Facebook thought this was money being syphoned off to fund Wagner and loads of other idiots chipped in on Twitter. Some even produced videos on it so that more gullible people could find it in their unbiased twitter feeds and post it gleefully on football messageboards as some kind of sign that they are gifted and talented.
Still...nice stuff on why fact checkers take the piss!
You have no idea on what’s really happening just like the rest us.As far as I know, nobody’s trying to be clever, they are just offering an opinion ,that’s all it is.
What’s released online or wherever else is what is permitted to be released. Alternative platforms like RT for example, are banned.
I know it’s pre season but how the f ck is this thread still on the main forum?
All the main protagonists are here, both left and right.
Off to the alternative forum with you ffs.
