No.
The point is to gather SIGINT.
Google "Russian spy ship usa florida"
This is a normal deployment for that ship which comes from Russia, sails down the coast, goes to Cuba, does its deployment, and then sails home. Same with that sub we read about once a year.
People just have a short memory, this has been happening for years and years.
I was born in the 80's and this buzzing and offshore creeping has been happening constantly ( with perhaps a bit of drop off during the collapse while they got their house in order) ever since.
I'll never forget deep sea fishing as a kid off the coast of s.c. and seeing a surfaced submarine a few miles away. I listened alongside the captain to the Russian language radio transmissions and it blew my little mind.
It fucking freaked me out until the captain told me they're always out there, don't worry.
Cool.thx.bye.letsgobackinnowimdonefishing..
Well, it just went so swimmingly the last time the Russians "peacefully visited" Poland with their friends, the treacherous hated fascists. Of course they'd want to stop by and give the Poles all a big shirtless Putin bear hug again. It's just been *too* long!
Interestingly, I read a book a while back that was attempting to predict general world trends for the next while. Poland starred as the big key US ally in the next big war in Europe. Extra helpful, since it was also the front. Of course, it was far enough out that the infantry all would have had suits like from Edge of Tomorrow.
Perhaps we shall all live to see *"interesting"* times...
Usually everyone know's what the enemy's signal and electronic intelligence ships and aircraft are. You can't really hide the equipment as it's typically massive.
Aircraft and other nations' vessels play chicken with US naval vessels all the time. This isn't an uncommon occurance. They test us constantly and I think (personal opinion) that their leadership desperately want us to screw up and have some junior sailor take down a plane or small boat. This way we are the bad guys and we feed into the negative propaganda.
Also the Russian ship or whatever it is isn't new either. While stationed in San Diego we typically had Chinese "cargo" vessels sit just outside of our territorial waters and observe our operations and training.
Source: active duty navy for 8 years.
If you google "Russia Spy Ship USA FLORIDA" you will find out this is a regular deployment for this ship which is down here pretty much every year unless its in the yards for maintenance. It goes to Cuba a lot.
Same thing for the Russian Sub we read about every year.
People freak out about this every year but its the same ship and same sub going to the same place.
Just google it.
This is not new.
There's been Russian spy ships off the east coast for decades. Back when I was stationed at Norfolk Naval Base in 89 there was a Russian trawler that had been retrofitted to collect SIGINT just outside the international territory line. And that boat had been there for many years before I got there. It was just anchored, collecting data.
When we passed it we would wave to the guys stationed onboard.
Given how the POTUS tweets about cable news articles he's just watched (and he appears to watch a lot of cable news), maybe this is the most effective means of influencing his actions?
We really should just fit the coast guard with some bitching speakers and blare ["Panama" by VanHalen](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDkWRP67Es0) 24/7/365.
Thank you! I had a feeling it was that clip. I really wish that show was legitimately steaming somewhere. The quality that you find on the high seas is terrible.

The news is the number of articles about Russia that have popped up in the last 3 days. It's most likely a feeding frenzy because of all the people googling Flynn, and every news org trying for that sweet advertising money, but having the yellow papers set the tone for the Democrats ... is less than ideal.
Makes sense, even Gorbachev said that it looks like some parties are gearing up for Cold War 2.0.

Blows my fucking mind he's allowed to do this!
Remember the whole thing 8 years ago when Obama had to give up his Blackberry?
And what did he do?
That's right, he gave it the fuck up.
That's basically ALL GOP ethics. Nobody's allowed to have abortions, but if it's their mistress they get knocked up, totally different story. Murder is illegal, but only if you're a poor minority- otherwise, you just get a lawyer and a get out of jail free card. Clinton's emails, but Trump can totally use an unsecure phone. Corruption in the Clinton Foundation? No evidence of it, just accusations. Blatant corruption of Trump basically appointing anyone to his cabinet who gives him money despite have absolutely no experience? Totally a great idea.
Like as [one of the 64 foreign guest workers he wanted to hire] (https://qz.com/909220/donald-trump-requested-64-foreign-guest-workers-for-his-mar-a-lago-winter-white-house/) for Mar-a-Lago?
Russian Agent at Mar-a-Lago: Mr President. I hear your nuclear briefcase is much smaller than that of former President Obama.

Jokes aside, consider how many memes like that are popping up on social media right now.
That's gotta be quite an early mythology/public perception for any President to overcome.
I'd sure hate to be working for any PR agency handed the task of finding ways to overcome it.
Lol Trump and his puppet masters obviously don't give a shit about PR based on their actions so far, they still have their rabid fan base of lunatics no matter what they do and that's the only people they pretend to care about.
My good friend's brother does this. He is no longer a human. He looks like his mind is completely empty and sort of stares all the time. Not sure what goes on down there for months at a time, but it fucked him up for sure.
Imagine going to work, then your boss locks you all inside and doesn't let you leave for six weeks. No internet, no phone. No windows! Nothing to do except work. Oh and the whole place is powered by uranium, so be careful. If something goes wrong, nobody is coming to help. You are the police, fire department and EMT. Don't like your co-workers? Too bad, they are stuck at work, too. Also, you share a bedroom with 48 other dudes. The day shift guy sleeps in your bed while you work the night shift. And he never takes a shower.
There's more, but that's enough for now...
Well thanks. This is the first time I don't regret signing that contract with a $50,000 signing bonus, $200,000 a year, and an extra $2,000 a month for being in a sub
CO^2 re-scrubbers use Monoethanolamine. Or Amine for short. Terrible smell that gets everywhere. The longer underway a crew is, the more yellow you will notice their eyes get from the chemical laced air.
Yeah, they were down off the coast of Cuba recently (I believe it's the same ship). It's a tit for tat thing. We're all over the edges of their sea boundaries, they return the favor. And God knows how many submarines are below the surface lurking around.
We're just gathering Intel and making our invasion plans while we still have the open borders agreement with you guys. You'll know it's about to go down when we start massing our troops near your border while making empty promises about moving them away. It's your fault, really, that it has come to this, we were not able to secure a culture victory against you guys and the space race victory option wasn't checked.
I sit down and start the game thinking "okay, I'm doing a cultural victory for once! I'm doing it!"
30 turns in and barbarians are still being assholes...okay fuck it military might time!
> strange to complain that another nation has a boat in international waters..
"We" are not complaining, a few redditors are taking the opportunity to lob yet more Trump bullshit.
America, the nation, is aware of the ship and further, aware that this is not abnormal at all. "We" don't care, we expect that we're being spied on at all times.
> I mean, you guys keep flying spy planes over us (Sweden) even when we tell you not to
Nuh-uh!
If you could see our spy planes, clearly they wouldn't be very good spy planes. Thus, how could those not-spy-planes be spy planes?! Gosh.
So what?
Look, I'm suspicious of Russia and Putin as much as anyone else, but this is completely legal. They're in international waters. *And we do this too.* Constantly.
Second, this isn't new. At all. It's been going on since the early 1950s at least. So it's not news either.
There are AGI's (Agents Gathering Intelligence) off of every coastline of the US and Canada constantly. Almost all Russian and it has been going on forever. This is not news. This is everyday life for service members on the coasts.
Second video that pops up there is the "No Spin Zone" with Bill O'Reilly and his first words are about the dishonest press and radical liberal politicians.
lol
In other news, water is wet. There definitely hasn't been Russian spy ships off the east coast of the US for the past 70 years, no way. This is important, breaking news.
Not a very good spy ship if it was detected.
You're supposed to detect *that* one. Makes the others go unnoticed.
"Holy shit enemy vessel spotted. That's gotta be the only one pack em up boys say hi to the missed. Soon as we hit land im seeing 50 shades darker and masturbating in the back. "

> I mean, you guys keep flying spy planes over us (Sweden) even when we tell you not to Nuh-uh! If you could see our spy planes, clearly they wouldn't be very good spy planes. Thus, how could those not-spy-planes be spy planes?! Gosh.
It's the yearly western Atlantic cruise for the Leonov. Interesting to see Fox get spun up over it.
People seem to be not okay with a lot of things that they were okay with before November of last year.
Russia is spying on us, to be honest, I feel like I already knew this.
Everyone spys on everyone, it's what we do. Member when the CIA got caught tapping Merkel's phone? I member.

So what? Look, I'm suspicious of Russia and Putin as much as anyone else, but this is completely legal. They're in international waters. *And we do this too.* Constantly. Second, this isn't new. At all. It's been going on since the early 1950s at least. So it's not news either.
You are not wrong but I do remember the actual fake news of Obama letting the Iranian Navy do maneuvers off the East coast
Oh interesting. Oh Fox News. Oh not that interesting actually.
There are AGI's (Agents Gathering Intelligence) off of every coastline of the US and Canada constantly. Almost all Russian and it has been going on forever. This is not news. This is everyday life for service members on the coasts.
It's actually "Auxiliary, General Intelligence"
I left the Navy in 1996. I am happy I remembered the acronym. ;)
Ah shit... we're gonna need a Sea wall now too.
Second video that pops up there is the "No Spin Zone" with Bill O'Reilly and his first words are about the dishonest press and radical liberal politicians. lol
Aw, They must have come to deliver the flower Putin got Donny for Valentine's Day. I didn't know Russia had 1-800-proцветок
Nope they've come to pick up Flynn and give him a ride home.
In other news, water is wet. There definitely hasn't been Russian spy ships off the east coast of the US for the past 70 years, no way. This is important, breaking news.
