    Putin is a murderous thug. But Zelensky is a corrupt piece of shit. We got conned getting knee deep in this shit show.

    We?

    We? were not conned. We? could have stopped this in its tracks. Instead we? goaded this war into a reality. We? thought this would be the end of Putin. We? just got mired in another endless regime-change war. $53 BILLION with more on the way.


    Some of us knew this was an unmitigated disaster from the start.


    @HeilHusky cheers.

    I was called a shill for Putin simply asking for details.

    #metoo

    At this poont I consider it a badge of honor.

    Speaking only as a casual observer of the fight, Likhachev said the timing of the president’s move was hard to explain.

    “The brief answer is that Zelensky is fighting political rivals,” Likhachev said, though “it seems that nobody really knows” why now, and why by voiding their citizenship. Perhaps, Likhachev proposed, the answer is “because he can.”

    Whatever Zelensky’s motivation, the move could have sweeping consequences for efforts to reinvigorate Jewish communities in Ukraine. Jewish leaders were already concerned that a looming financial crisis would reduce the capacity of wealthy Ukrainian Jews to build back up institutions that have been damaged by a mass exodus of Jews during the war. Now, the question may be whether those wealthy Ukrainian Jews remain Ukrainian at all.

    The details are Russia invaded Ukraine.

    Those who think Zelensky has to be a saint for us to oppose that aren't especially bright.

    I blame the schools on the rez.

    Marching orders and the lemming is here to defend everything


    Why did Biden let Russia invade and why should I give a shit about a corrupt nazi president of Ukraine?

    "The one big loophole is the $1 billion a day of revenue Russia receives from the sale of oil and gas. Until that is shut down, we haven't achieved our objective of starving him of money to fight this war," the British political activist and Kremlin critic told DW.


    In the short term, observers say the impact of oil prices is more important for Russia than sanctions. Last year, Russia earned $119 billion (€117 billion) from oil and gas sales, when the price averaged $69 a barrel. This month, prices have been at $115 a barrel. Oil income makes up 40% of Russia's budget revenues.



    Are the sanctions still working?

    Endless war, money laundering proponent shill weighs in.

    You're a fucking fool if you think we have any more reason to be in Ukraine than we did searching for WMD in Iraq.

    You're a fucking fool regardless but you're a real fucking fool to saddle up to Zelensky and the Military Industrial complex dirtbags.

    Russian invade Ukraine during Obama's term too. NOGAF then because the MIC $$$ was flowing to Afghanistan.

    Go eat bugs, Dazzler.
