A U.S. military transport plane used by the United States Air Force flew from Latvia to Moscow’s Vnukovo airport early Tuesday, data from Flightradar24 showed.

The plane appeared to have travelled to Latvia from Joint Base Andrews, a U.S. military facility close to Washington DC, the data showed.

The data did not show who was onboard the plane -- a large, Boeing C-17 Globemaster III -- or why it was travelling to Russia.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declined to comment when asked about the flight, saying he did “not have such information”.

The U.S. administration has made no public comment on the matter.

Fuckery is afoot.

Where's trumpy at today? Does anyone have eyes on him? Maybe his master needs to give him some new orders on how to screw the US some more. Inquiring minds want to know!

Or maybe Valodja just wanted a blowjob.

Rumor/reporting evidently is that it was carrying CIA Director John Ratcliffe and his motorcade.

Can the US make up its mind on whether they want to be Israel's Perioechi or Russia's 47th oblast?

What is so odd about a military flight between allies?
