That we can agree on gus. Our corrupt leaders shovel it to them by the billions and they spend a lot of it on lavish luxury items in other countries while our corrupt politicians line their pockets and their donors pockets to the tune of billions of $'s. Mn. and Ca. are a tiny corruption scandal when compared to what has transpired in ukraine for years now. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

I don’t know about that, but last I heard Turkey wasn’t letting any warships enter the Black Sea, including Russian warships. Serious about crackers. | |||

^^ How exactly is Turkey doing this? Russia has it's own port on the Black Sea, in Crimea, which was and is the home port of the Russian Navy's Black Sea Fleet. The Russians have had a naval base in Crimea since 1783, so for the last 240 years! ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

I also think the Ukrainians are destroying armored vehicles faster than Russia can replace them. _________________________________________________________________________ “A man’s treatment of a dog is no indication of the man’s nature, but his treatment of a cat is.

You’re confused. Ports aren’t warships. “Turkey's enforcement of the Montreux Convention blocks reinforcements from entering via the Turkish Straits, limiting Russia's ability to replenish major combat ships.” “The Montreux Convention Regarding the Regime of the Straits is a 1936 international agreement that gives Turkey control over the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits, guarantees free civilian passage, and limits foreign warship access between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. Signed on July 20, 1936, it went into effect on November 9, 1936.” Wikipedia “The largest modern Russian warship in the Black Sea was the Slava-class guided-missile cruiser Moskva, which served as the flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. It displaced 11,500 tons and measured 186 meters (612 feet) in length before it sank in April 2022.” NBC News Sunk on April 14, 2022, following hits by Ukrainian Neptune anti-ship missiles. Four years on, the Russians haven’t been able to replace it. Serious about crackers. | |||

^^ OK, so Turkey, on the opposite side of the Black Sea from Russia, which controls the Turkish Straits will neither let any Russian warships that departed the Black Sea ultimately for the Mediterranean Sea 'return' to the Black Sea, nor let any 'other' Russian Warships enter the Black Sea! Gotcha By the way, they've still got ships in those ports, you know, the ones on the Black Sea!  https://www.ukrinform.net/rubr...in-in-black-sea.html ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

Looks like we’ve “paused” operations again in Iran. Link: https://apnews.com/article/ira...1d3429a87a6ed58f2f72 | |||

I agree with almost everything Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) said in that video but I think this is a misstatement: "0:5757 seconds They don't care who you voted for, who you pray to, or where you live." They do care who we (everyone) pray(s) to, and that is a very crucial point. | |||
