Where Do Things End With Vlad? (h/t romad1)

[romad1]

Very interesting Michael Weiss interview with Tim Miller last week on the Bulwark Pod.  He says Marco Rubio is basically fighting the JD Vance/Don Jr. clique in the WH over Ukraine.  Rubio's side are the senators on both sides of the aisle who are normie and who believe in the post WWII security structures (i'm gonna be on that side in some form).  Rubio has to play all the games of the MAGAs to keep his neck in this insane farrago of an administration. 

Whatever is happening with the Venezuelans and or Colombians is intended to distract the MRI-taker from thinking too hard about all this stuff.

As much as I despise Mario Rubio, we need all the help we can get in there to keep the Russified cabal from completely destroying America as we have come to know and love it.

Hopefully sound brains in the UK will fix this

Vlad got his money's worth with Brexit for sure.

Zelenskyy is learning that if you just hold your ground Trump gets antsy and goes off in some different direction. Of course Putin knows that too, so recipe for continued stalemate.

Putin will ACTUALLY come to the table...

When America says: "We are establishing a No-Fly Zone west of the river Dnieper."

Would so love that.  Will require a President Newsome or President Shapiro or someone not in the current administration to manifest though.
