Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in Washington on Thursday. Leon Neal/Getty Images CNN — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to the White House on Thursday could be his final chance to convince a receptive American president of his country’s war aims. mega333mq5acolj7rw726jjy6g3ihgsmnhlfuuk6cd2267jbohhc4aqd.onion The precise details of the “victory plan” Zelensky plans to present in separate meetings to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are unknown having been closely held until they are presented to the American leaders. But according to people briefed on its broad contours the plan reflects the Ukrainian leader’s urgent appeals for more immediate help countering Russia’s invasion. Zelensky is also poised to push for long-term security guarantees that could withstand changes in American leadership ahead of what is widely expected to be a close presidential election between Harris and former President Donald Trump. The plan people familiar with it said acts as Zelensky’s response to growing war weariness even among his staunchest of western allies. It will make the case that Ukraine can still win — and does not need to cede Russian-seized territory for the fighting to end — if enough assistance is rushed in. That includes again asking permission to fire Western provided long-range weapons deeper into Russian territory a line Biden once was loathe to cross but which he’s recently appeared more open to as he has come under growing pressure to relent. Even if Biden decides to allow the long-range fires it’s unclear whether the change in policy would be announced publicly. Biden is usually apt to take his time making decisions about providing Ukraine new capabilities. But with November’s election potentially portending a major change in American approach to the war if Trump were to win Ukrainian officials — and many American ones — believe there is little time to waste. megaweb16.com https://megaweb12at.com Trump has claimed he will be able to “settle” the war upon taking office and has suggested he’ll end US support for Kyiv’s war effort. “Those cities are gone they’re gone and we continue to give billions of dollars to a man who refused to make a deal Zelensky. There was no deal that he could have made that wouldn’t have been better than the situation you have right now. You have a country that has been obliterated not possible to be rebuilt” Trump said during a campaign speech in Mint Hill North Carolina on Wednesday. Comments like those have lent new weight to Thursday’s Oval Office talks according to American and European officials who have described an imperative to surge assistance to Ukraine while Biden is still in office. As part of Zelensky’s visit the US is expected to announce a major new security package thought it will likely delay the shipping of the equipment due to inventory shortages CNN previously reported according to two US officials. On Wednesday the US announced a package of 375 million. The president previewed Zelensky’s visit to the White House a day beforehand declaring on the margins of the United Nations General Assembly his administration was “determined to ensure that Ukraine has what it needs to prevail in fight for survival.” megaweb20.com “Tomorrow I will announce a series of actions to accelerate support for Ukraine’s military – but we know Ukraine’s future victory is about more than what happens on the battlefield it’s also about what Ukrainians do make the most of a free and independent future which so many have sacrificed so much for” he said.
‘Extraordinary rainstorm’ floods Nebraska city triggers water rescues tripscan An entire June’s worth of rain fell in just a few hours over Grand Island Nebraska Wednesday night triggering life-threatening flash flooding that inundated neighborhoods stranded motorists and forced water rescues. Crews have responded to dozens of calls to assist motorists stuck in flooded roads since torrential rain began Wednesday night according to Spencer Schubert the city’s communications manager. The flooding has also displaced an unspecified number of residents from their homes. https://tripscan.biz трипскан “At this time we have no injuries to report” Schubert said early Thursday morning noting some rescues were ongoing. Torrential rain caused sewers to back up into several homes and sent floodwater running into basements according to a Thursday news release from the city. Some affected residents took shelter at local hotels or with friends and family. “This was an extraordinary rainstorm and is very similar to the historic rains seen in the 2005 floods” Jon Rosenlund the city’s emergency director said. “We will be actively monitoring rivers creeks and other drainage areas over the next few days for future flooding issues.” Flooding in 2005 turned streets into rivers in Grand Island. At one point the city tore up a major road to open up a channel to drain flooding away from homes CNN affiliate KHGI reported. The central Nebraskan city is home to around 53000 people and is about 130 miles southwest of Omaha. The rain came to an end around sunrise Thursday but the danger remains with a flood warning in effect until 7 p.m. CDT.
These preppers have ‘go bags’ guns and a fear of global disaster. They’re also left-wing трип скан The day after President Donald Trump was elected in 2016 Eric Shonkwiler looked at his hiking bag to figure out what supplies he had. “I began to look at that as a resource for escape should that need to happen” he said. He didn’t have the terminology for it at the time but this backpack was his “bug-out bag” — essential supplies for short-term survival. It marked the start of his journey into prepping. In his Ohio home which he shares with his wife and a Pomeranian dog Rosemary he now has a six-month supply of food and water a couple of firearms and a brood of chickens. “Resources to bridge the gap across a disaster” he said. https://tripscan.biz tripscan войти Margaret Killjoy’s entry point was a bleak warning in 2016 from a scientist friend who told her climate change was pushing the global food system closer than ever to collapse. Killjoy started collecting food water and generators. She bought a gun and learned how to use it. She started a prepping podcast Live Like the World is Dying and grew a community. Prepping has long been dominated by those on the political right. The classic stereotype albeit not always accurate is of the lone wolf with a basement full of Spam a wall full of guns and a mind full of conspiracy theories. Shonkwiler and Killjoy belong to a much smaller part of the subculture: They are left-wing preppers. This group is also preparing for a doom-filled future and many also have guns but they say their prepping emphasizes community and mutual aid over bunkers and isolationism. In an era of barreling crises — from wars to climate change — some say prepping is becoming increasingly appealing to those on the left. The roots of modern-day prepping in the United States go back to the 1950s when fears of nuclear war reached a fever pitch. The 1970s saw the emergence of the survivalist movement which dwindled in the 1990s as it became increasingly associated with an extreme-right subculture steeped in racist ideology. A third wave followed in the early 2000s when the term “prepper” began to be adopted more widely said Michael Mills a social scientist at Anglia Ruskin University who specializes in survivalism and doomsday prepping cultures. Numbers swelled following big disasters such as 9/11 Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the 2008 financial crisis. A watershed moment for right-wing preppers was the election of Barack Obama in 2008 Mills said. For those on the left it was Trump’s 2016 election. Preppers of all political stripes are usually motivated by a “foggy cloud of fear” rather than a belief in one specific doomsday scenario playing out Mills said. Broad anxieties tend to swirl around the possibility of economic crises pandemics natural disasters war and terrorism. “We’ve hit every one of those” since the start of this century said Anna Maria Bounds a sociology professor at Queens College who has written a book about New York’s prepper subculture. These events have solidified many preppers’ fears that in times of crisis the government would be “overwhelmed under-prepared and unwilling to help” she said.
“We’re asking everyone to take it slow avoid driving through standing water and use alternate routes when possible” Rosenlund urged. трипскан сайт Rainfall in Grand Island began Wednesday afternoon but the intensity picked up quickly after dark falling at more than an inch per hour at times. A total of 6.41 inches of rain fell by midnight which made it the rainiest June day and the second rainiest day of any month in the city’s 130-year history of weather records. The National Weather Service issued a flash flood emergency — the most severe form of flood warning — at 11:45 p.m. CDT Wednesday for Grand Island that continued for several hours into Thursday morning continuously warning of “extensive flash flooding.” https://tripscan.biz трипскан вход Multiple rounds of heavy storms tracked over the area late Wednesday into early Thursday morning and ultimately dumped record amounts of rainfall. A level 2-of-4 risk of flooding rainfall was in place for Grand Island at the time according to the Weather Prediction Center. More than a month’s worth of rain – nearly 4.5 inches – fell in only three hours between 10 p.m. CDT Wednesday and 1 a.m. CDT Thursday. Rainfall of this intensity would only be expected around once in 100 years according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data. Climate change is making heavy rainfall events heavier.
