I doubt it.

Edit: Okay, now I believe it. Vladdy Poot is trying to protect what’s left of his Naval Fleet from the Ukrainians.

Cuba is 90 miles away from Florida. It's not unrealistic that the Russian naval task force is in the vicinity of Florida right now.

Maybe, just maybe, they've had enough of NATO missile sites on their borders, and the attempt to make Ukraine's 1000 mile border with them a nuclear missile park. It's like 1962 Cuban missile crisis mirror image.

Exactly, precisely, 100% correct. And I use the Monroe Doctrine example when describing the Ukraine conflict. Corrupt Zelinskyy brought that whole devastating war down on his own country and we're bankrolling it.

A little embarrassing that it takes a Brit to utter the truth.

Nuclear powered submarine.

Supposedly does not carry any nuclear weapons.

Pretty sure nuc weapons can be launched from much further away.

Janes fighting ships can help find the data people seek on what Soviet boats can carry and launch, etc.
Like is was stated above, outside the Continental Shelf, there are things lurking more often than you suspect. West coast as well, and near Hawaii.

We're never going to get the truth from American media or DNC-controlled GovCo agencies.

The last thing we want is anything nuclear having an accident that close to the coast, or anywhere, for that matter.

" US Navy P8 Poseidon 'Sub hunter' is flying over the coast of Florida in search of rogue Russian submarine!! "

Calling it "rogue" is pretty irresponsible, especially for US Civil Defense News.

It's not necessarily DNC controlled GovCo agencies, it's uniparty controlled agencies. Look at all the Republican war hawks like Miss Lindsey Graham that are spoiling and cheerleading for the Ukraine war and the Gaza war. Recall Bush, Cheney, Colin Powell, Condolezza, etc., cheerleading for a bullshit war against Iraq.


The American people want peace, not war, which is a direct conflict with the 'uniparty,' which does want war and conflict. And recall it used to be the Dems that were supposed to be the peaceniks. Code Pink? I'm still on their text messaging system, from back when they, and I, opposed the Iraq war.
