Hmmm. I'm guessing that particular document has no teeth, given that one of the signatories grabbed a piece of Ukraine (Crimea) for their very own in 2014.

I’m guessing Putin has been watching the US renege on it’s obligations to other countries and administrations. He believes we are weak. Now is the time to reconstitute the Soviet Union. We’re war weary and in debt to the gills. It means very little to be a US ally anymore. China is opportunistic. When Putin moves China will be watching. Depending on how that goes, China may move. The Norks will spasm but get spanked so we can save face. All of this is a crying shame and the result of the US having been infected by Leftism and political correctness. We are decaying and the predators are circling.



You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier

So help me understand…

The Russian Olympic team was disqualified because of cheating. However they still get to complete under the title Russian Olympic committee. Why? Putin is there cheering for his country and his teams. Why?

I understand IOC corruption fully.


But I would suggest that Putin is deliberately there to work with Xi and set the stage for what happens over the next 30 days.


I also believe there’s a high probability it’s military action. I further believe Brandon’s not smart enough to keep us out of danger. He fosters the danger.

If NATO gets jumpy, Putin shuts off the gas taps. So, he has some time constraints, too. But the Germans don't seem interested because the politicians really want to get re-elected. Hard to do when you cause the people to freeze for a war nobody wants.

FDR needed a war to clear out the financial rot and reset the state. The Fed needs a war to do the same now. I'm concerned, I don't want more dead American boys for rich people's fortunes.

That's just silly. In the future when the climate has fully changed there won't be any wind...and that's really a good thing, seriously.
