Many veterans of the #Trump admin have a similar warning for #Ukraine as it battles #Russia’s invasion. “US support for Ukraine would end,” said a snr US official who served under Trump & #Biden.
“The point is, he saw absolutely no point in #NATO,” Kelly said. “He was just dead set against having troops in #SouthKorea, again, a deterrent force, or having troops in #Japan, a #deterrent force.”
The mylar holographic bird scare flash tape that worked earlier in the year to deter bats & birds from roosting above front door frame no longer works. They got wise to my low cost renter’s solution. So I picked up 12” x 4” foam bricks, taped them together linearly, wrapped them in scare tape, and wedged them above the door frame. The clearance was 4”ish too so they simply hold in place without adhesive.No more opening door to mess & early morning jump scares. #physical#birds#deterrent
The #UnitedStates conducted a new round of #airstrikes against facilities used by #Iran & its proxies in eastern #Syria late Sunday in retaliation for a spate of recent attacks against American troops, #Pentagon ofcls said on Sunday.
Ofcls said the strikes most likely killed or injured an undetermined number of people at the sites.
@ai6yr@WXFanatic@alberniweather Recently used mylar holographic bird scare tape to deter bats and birds roosting above front door frame - large covered porch meant they were hiding from nearby raptors, resting and making a mess. I was afraid starlings were gonna start a nest. Currently in the Pacific Flyway migration route. The combination of sound and reflection has worked marvelously. Cheap renter’s solution. :) #birds#deterrent
When your home burns, floods, or is destroyed in an extreme climate weather event, when someone in your family dies from heat waves, or when crops fail and people starve—come for these three people: Wael Sawan (Shell CEO), Darren Woods (Exxon CEO), and Patrick Pouyanne (TotalEnergies CEO). They knew what was coming and did it to you anyway. Sue them, shame them, heckle them, despise them. These are choices. They are to blame, not society.
@MattMastodon@MarkRuffalo we need to acknowledge #ecocide as #Genocide and we need a #Nuremberg process because the people we need to deter are so rich and so powerful that there is no fine big enough and no prison sentence that they believe will actually be imposed on them.
I don't want us to actually hang anyone, but unless they really believe we're prepared to, the oil executives aren't going to change their behaviour. We need an effective #Deterrent.
