Well stated ^^^ Although, even though Finland hates the Russians, they currently apparently have their head right up their collective asses.

Hans Mahncke @HansMahncke None of this would’ve happened without: -Biden and Nuland instigating the 2014 coup -Hillary instigating the Russia collusion hoax -Democrats using Ukraine as a wedge -Bidens getting themselves compromised -media and Big Tech covering up Biden corruption before the 2020 election "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

I just look back on the history of the past 80 years and can't help but think what bullshit we could have avoided if we had just turned the German Army around and pushed on to Moscow like Patton had wanted to do. | |||

Well here is the bone head in 2001 praising Putin. General Powell must be sitting there thinking what is this idiot rambling about. -------------------------------------------------- Watch: Biden in 2001 Praises Putin for Embracing the West, Compares Him to Peter the Great https://twitter.com/RNCResearc.../1496272960457297922 (video is in the link) A video unearthed from 2001 by the Republican National Committee’s research team revealed then-Senator Biden praising Russian President Vladimir Putin for embracing the West, heralding his actions as comparable to Peter the Great. “I’m close to amazed by how far Putin seems to have come in making – throwing – his lot in with the West,” Biden said as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. “He seems to have – out of all the briefings I’ve gotten – actually stiff-armed his military and stiff-armed some of the browns and reds in his government and out of government.” “And made a very – I don’t think anybody since Peter the Great has made such a significant – at least an initial move to the West,” Biden claimed: Biden has a history of questionable foreign policy judgment and analysis. Robert Gates, George W. Bush and Barack Obama’s secretary of defense, wrote in 2014 that Biden “has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.” Biden’s foreign policy judgment before he became president are as follows: -Suggested sending $200 million to Iran, “no strings attached.” -Voted against the successful Persian Gulf War that forced Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait. -Insisted “the Taliban per se is not our enemy.” -Opposed the troop surges that brought some stability to both Iraq and Afghanistan -Claimed he was responsible for ending the genocide in Bosnia -Voted against trade agreements with Singapore, Chile, Oman, and the Dominican Republic -Opposed the raid to kill Osama bin Laden, telling Obama “don’t go.” -Opposed killing Iranian terrorist Qasem Soleimani https://www.breitbart.com/poli...-to-peter-the-great/ Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||

No worries. Remember that last summer President Brandon gave Putin a list of 16 items that are hands off for cyber attacks. | |||

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should |
Every President since George Bush #1 had a hand in this mess. Bush and Clinton could have made the most difference in how this played out, for the least money and effort. They were in charge when the Russians were weakest in the early 90's and could have engaged with them more. Yes it might have cost us a little money but the post Soviet Russians were much more in the mood and the drunk Yeltsen looking for help, anywhere he could find it. Instead, weary from decades of Cold War spending, our Bush #1 and Clinton preferred to cash in on the defense department savings to spend elsewhere. That money may soon seem like chump change. A Mafia like government soon took advantage of the vacuum. The next Presidents didn't pay a lot of attention either. Bush #2 got mired down in the middle east. Obama? Just listen to his debate exchange with Romney to see how poor his understanding was (the 80's want their foreign policy back). Trump couldn't do anything that appeared like reaching out because of the bogus claims of being beholden to the Russians. Fortunately, they were scared of him enough to bide their time and likely encouraged the Trump/Russian farce to help get Biden, their real preferred candidate, in the drivers seat. Then there's the Europeans that mostly wouldn't spend the NATO required 2% of their GDP on defense preparations. The Russians have used all sorts of tactics to divide and conquer them too. So here we are today. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

Good grief. It's Russia handling matters in it's natural sphere of influence. Elections have consequences and Putin would be remiss if he didn't take advantage of the opportunity. This will result in hand wringing, sanctions, and more leftist nonsense. Our 'diplomats' are actual idiots. Don't believe me...revisit the ridiculous Ukraine impeachment hilarity. The State department couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were printed on the heel. | |||

A little reminder from Don Surber about Ukrainian Pres. Zelensky.

Fighting the good fight |
The US market has been holding pretty steady with even a slight upward trend today. But the Russian market posted a 33% drop (~200 billion dollars), with them even temporarily halting trading to stop the hemorrhaging. | |||
