  1. Yes, lets normalize Crazy Marg and her work on behalf of Russia.
  2. Or, we could be in the right places at once. We withdrew from Afghanistan because it was unsupportable. The US is a naval power. Lacking strong alliances and a coastline we could not sustain our support for the Afghan government. The Pakistanis are the closest ally of China. They f'd us over too many times during the GWOT. Central Asian countries are under Putin's thumb. Ukraine and Taiwan are much surer places to build the bulwarks of democracy. But go ahead and keep chirping.
  3. I was listening to a co-worker describe how his liaison partner (a senior member of the security services of an Eastern European country) was describing the US Embassy as something the guy would look at during the Soviet era with a lot of pain in his heart. He'd see the American flag flying above that embassy and he knew that the US was at least a place where you could dispute the bosses when they were wrong, where you wouldn't be shot for failure or be taken away in the middle of the night. I gather that this guy got the very flag that was flying over that embassy as a token of appreciation in a ceremony when he retired.
  4. I'm not seeing much value to these arguments. I'm for human rights. I can only fight for those in so many places at once.
  5. yeah, this...unfortunately Being a grown up sucks sometimes.
  6. She was asking for it
  7. But think of all the money they will have raised.
  8. In this scenario are we bringing snow with us to Columbus?
  9. She wants to create a structure to raise money and stay relevant. Hope she gets the cold shoulder but there is no end to what some of these people will pay to support.
  10. Remember Billy Carter was a political strap-hanger. It didnt' make Jimmy Carter a bad person.
  11. This should hurt his other businesses. He must be identified as a wrecker of our economy.
  12. The Putin caucus in congress appears to have their knives out for NATO.
  13. Looks like we have something like a Karla
  14. huh… Did we finally get Karla?
  15. Gonna be an interesting period when the lunatics are running the asylum. Hoyer and Pelosi both stepping down is epoch shifting.
  16. Michael Tracey is about a whore for Putin as it gets online.
  17. Paid Putin apologist says....
  18. Remember Omarosa carrying water for Trump? She proclaimed that people would have to bow down to Trump. How did that work out for her? Kari Lake comes from a very similar opportunistic paper-thin recency of support for the RW extremism.
  19. To the charge that UN, NATO and EU support for Ukraine is "imperialist" against the territorial acquisition of its territory by the dictator Putin i'd say: uh what?
  20. Another good outcome https://twitter.com/michaeldweiss/status/1592878945556652035?s=20&t=Zxi7hpXq91VXQWhDOtZMCw
  21. Hence the last election wherein the supporters of Democracy and collective security and support for Ukraine won decisively over the people trashing the Constitution.
  22. Good for you Dua
