Can you imagine if someone told us WE needed to surrender to say Mexico?
No, Ukraine needs to make Moscow burn.

Russia gonna fuck up and get the Poles involved.
They keep prodding them, Russia doesn't have the troops to stop Poland from steamrolling them.

The price of diesel is now over $6/gallon. Every delivery of almost everything in the economy depends on trucks, which run on diesel. The inflationary impact hasn't been immediate, but it will not only cause us pain at the pump but on every item we buy.

We produce/refine far more diesel right here in the good ol' U.S. of A. than we use. What happens between Ukraine and Russia should have zero bearing on the price of diesel here. What does have bearing on it are the greedy oil companies taking advantage of world events to fleece the American public. But hey, they're big donors to the Republican party, so we can't piss them off.

As someone who grew up during the Cold War, and is familiar with the history of Russia, China and Communism in general, bearing in mind the horrific atrocities they have inflicted on millions of people, the blood and treasure spent by the U.S. and so many others to contain them, I cannot express the disgust I feel at the attitude expressed by so many, including our President, that it is okay for Russia to invade and conquer a neighboring country. And, oh the evil audacity of that inconvenient should-be-victim, to actually defend itself against the aggressor!

In retrospect, we should have just made an alliance with Japan, Germany and Italy in late 1940.

Woah fuck, we agree on something.

What I do not understand is last week Russia was importing fuel because of shortages of diesel and gasoline. What the heck are they going to export? There is something else going on. There are rumors that things may not be so good in the house of Saud, units defecting and such.

Yes, and we're exporting diesel but yet Trump negotiates a deal with Russia to import theirdiesel? Bullshit. I don't care for someone pissing down my leg and telling me it's raining. I don't care if it's Trump or anyone. We're getting smoke blown up our asses.

India and South Korea both sent fuel(gas/diesel) to Russia last month. And Russia issued a ban on diesel exports due to shortages. Trump told Zelensky not to but I few hours afterwards he hit their refineries again. He was livid when he walked out to the helicopter and answered some questions from the reporters. Something is up just not sure what it is yet.

Two things. Fuck Russia.

Some don't like Russia. Some don't like the little teddy bear clutching grifter more.
