Ukraine should demand that Russia demilitarize and pay reparations.

Richard Engel from NBC is reporting from Kharkiv. That tells you the city is safe. NBC report that the Russians are being pushed back and are in general retreat everywhere

yes, Chelsea’s former owner

Vladdie likes to remove people that he doesn’t like: a policy of people change

Excellent!

I think Biden should draw another red line around Zelensky. Tell Putin that his life is tied to Zelensky's now. If Putin wants to survive the year, then Zelensky has to survive the year. And do it on a kid's show to really drive home the point. Like the one that Mo Rocca does on Saturday mornings on CBS. "Sir, this is an Arby's" style.

Not cool Vladdie

concur

hey, don't the people Putin murders elsewhere get a vote?

Where do things end with Vlad?

I think he's demonstrated that he's beyond the pale.

Thinking this through. Putin has had multiple attempts on the lives of people he wants eliminated. Zelensky and Navalny seem to be the most crystaline examples. He interfered in our elections (2016, Brexit, the French elections, the German elections, et. al.,) How is this guy above being replaced?

I lol'd

The number one comment my buddy had when he saw that VDV video was "What nutty ass fascistic society even has a video like that for Ukraine to mock?"

One tweet about trigger control leads to another of Ukrainian propaganda brilliantly done. The VDV are the Russian airborne. They have been squandered by idiotic, arrogant leaders who are clearly terrified of the boss.

Possibly better placed in the guns thread but... Trigger discipline is a thing. When you see it you note it. When you don't see it...run or get behind something strong enough to prevent the bullet from hitting you.

Awkward gaffe

Maybe the Mama joke is what we really need to get the Russian's attention

Just now had a chat with my 93yr old dad about Biden's speech. My dad and I are both Nevertrump and he has his lifetime GOP credentials in good order as do I. He loved the speech and thinks the WH should not be walking back the comments. I think that's my dad being annoyed at the young staffers trying to protect the elderly Biden who they see through their optic as whatever it is that the young misjudge the elderly as being. I told him that i thought it was what Nixon and Kissinger called the "Cowardice of the Eastern Establishment"

This is a very good piece on the UK's defenders of Putin. I think we all know that RT was part of the Putin defense network.
