Russian invasion of Ukraine

[Scottyboi]

The head of the US intelligence committee, Mike Turner, warned of a serious threat to national security, which was communicated to all members of Congress.

Turner called on Biden to declassify all information about this threat so that Congress, the White House and allies can openly discuss the necessary actions to respond to this threat.

Earlier, Turner sent a letter to congressmen, in which it was said that the threat was associated with “foreign destabilizing military capabilities.”

CNN's intelligence sources say the threat is related to some new Russian capabilities that US intelligence recently learned about. The Hill's story says nothing about Russia.

A meeting has been convened for tomorrow, at which National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan will brief the G8 (which includes House Speaker Mike Johnson and Democratic Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries).

That's all the information up to this point.

ABC news say they were looking at putting nukes up there for anti satellite stuff. Make of that what you will.

If it shits the yanks up and gives them a kick up the arse then at least some good comes out of it.

That's what I was thinking.

I am not sure why they would need a nuke to blow up a Satellite. That seems a little extreme. Surely conventional weapons or a laser would incapacitate a satellite.

Purely from a nerd perspective, less debris flying about to cripple anything else. But I doubt those clowns are bothered about that. Could all be media speculation at this point too.

Something going on in USA news - a national security threat from Russia having some weapon in space... No details.

They want to put nuclear weapons in space

Would a nuke being activated in space stop it being detected?

If it is a nuke in space its how you create a powerful EMP weapon. You know the stuff of bond movie baddies.
Seriously fucks up any electronics which isn’t shielded and radiation hardened.
