Tidewater News and Opinion Forum
A place for civil discussion of the events of the day for Tidewater residents without the limitations imposed by media forums.
This is a curious story. Some speculate that the two pipelines have been sabotaged. If so, then geopolitical or merely industrial motives could be the reason. But why sabotage undersea pipelines that aren’t even in use?
Whatever caused the leaks, Germany faces a more precarious winter due to fewer energy supply options.

There’s no telling. There is practically no talking about it, either, because media in the USA are just crazy wrong about almost everything.
Continue reading “Who is Winning the War in Ukraine?”The referendum in Ukraine doesn’t look like a sham to me, but I will wait for the results and the international observer reports to form a final opinion.
But, obviously, my opinion doesn’t matter much. Should I conclude the referendum was invalid, what can or should be done about it?
The probability of so many fatal “accidents” happening to important Russian figures in such a short amount of time has become vanishingly small. It absolutely smacks of Putin holding on to power by murdering anyone he suspects of anything less than total loyalty.
Jake Sullivan is President Biden’s National Security Adviser. He sat down this morning for an interview on Meet the Press. I found his answers, presentation and clear thinking to be very reassuring in a time of international crisis and nuclear bluster. I recommend listening to the full interview.
I hope Forum participants are astute enough to appreciate the propaganda value of this video. But if not, here is a rundown of the five myths the video uses to create the message that transgenderism is good and healthy and deserves drugs.

The only person we have on video clearly advocating storming the Capitol Building in the days BEFORE Jan 6 is Rays Epps, who was dropped from the FBI’s most wanted list abruptly and who the Jan 6 committee will not discuss. That refusal to acknowledge his presence or even his existence has fueled speculation that he was one of a number of agents provocateurs planted by the FBI to encourage the riot.
I don’t know if that speculation is valid, but the refusal of the committee to investigate and lay the theory to rest, and instead try to ignore it away, is coming close to proof there is something to it.
The referenda now taking place in Ukraine is of interest due to the consequences should the four oblasts vote to join the Russian Federation. If they do, then any military actions against Russian forces within the oblast borders would — technically — be an act of war against Russia proper.
Continue reading “Historic Context Of The Referenda In Ukraine”You have probably heard about this, here he is saying it – The President can de-classify documents with his mind. He does not have to follow any process. Using this special power he de-classified EVERYTHING he sent to Mar-a-Lago. (Or did he just publicly admit that he absconded with classified documents?)
Two other gems in this Hannity segment.
MAGA-Republicans must be so proud of their Dear Leader!
The number of youths now considered “transgender” is 20 to 40 times what it was a decade ago. It is highly unlikely that the genome has changed that much, so are we just redefining the meaning? More importantly, are we overtreating these youths because the definition has changed even if the underlying reality has not?
My sister was, and is, by any reasonable standard, a Tomboy. She was always happiest pursing frogs and snakes and beating my brother and I in sports. She is also spectacularly heterosexual, once breaking her foot in intercourse.
The world would be a sadder place had someone pounced on her with puberty blockers and hormones to help her be a boy.
