These are the soldiers of the U.S. war machine in Ukraine. 5 billion for a Not-z army. Blinkin, Nuland, Trump, Biden, McCain all must be really proud.

Does Putin feed you the propaganda directly or is it pre chewed?

Should the US return Ukraine's nuclear weapons since neither Russia or the US are holding their ends of the agreement?

Ever since Russia has been frozen out financially, I haven't seen any new right wing material. Just same thing over and over again. Coincidence? 

How do you define "right wing material"?  Do you mean material posted to support the position that the U.S. government is run by a bunch of imbeciles?

We don't have them, they were destroyed

Here's a clip of Uncle Joe from 1997:

PUTIN WILL NEVER USE NUKES, PPL!!!!!

He's an expert at playing chicken. He said Boo! and half the world soiled their drawers.

He's an egomaniac who's carving his rep into history, along with Stalin and Ivan the Terrible.
His ultimate fail would be negating that legacy by starting a nuclear holocaust.

Right now he's having his dead soldiers cremated in the Ukraine bcause if thousands
of dead bodies showed up it would spoil the glory of his war.

 He's made some scary moves like the facility fire but he knew exactly how far to push it.
And it worked. He's going to end up with at least half of Ukraine.

I don't think any of us really is in a position to accurately forecast what will or not happen.  We don't know if he'll be pushed into a corner with no perceived way out.  Let's hope everybody comes off the ledge here and sanity prevails.

Not going to happen, nor should it, lets not pretend Ukraine was some wonderful place, there is reason they are never going to be part of nato

All perfectly calculated, all according to plan...

I guarantee he will never use nukes and I am always right

He poisoned everyone in an opera house, including the hostages, to stop a terrorist attack. The man couldn’t care less about killing however many people he needs to, however he needs to, to get what he wants. Sure, he’d rather rule over a powerful Russia, but threaten that rule enough and there is no limit to hard he’ll fight back.

Probably will happen.  Question is, what happens after that?  Germany was in economic straits in the 20's and Hitler was the result.

Why can’t we drill for more oil here and still try for clean energy solutions.  Seems like we can do both 

I’m doing my part. what’s the excuse for the rest of you slackers?

I think we can all agree that whatever may happen, you will continue to blame it on Joe Biden.

This thread sadly shows an apparently deep level of support in Russia for this invasion

Not saying we can't, but tell that to the far left.

He deserves it this time unless everything will forever be Trump or Putin.

Nah he's doing fine keeping Ukraine supplied with weapons and more importantly, feeding them with the absolute best intel Zelensky could've ever hoped for. If anyone thinks this would've gone down the same way without this level of involvement from our intel community, they're morons.

And buying oil from Venezuela and Iran while his press secretary says drilling more here isn't on the table. That's bs. Everything should at least be an option. 

To give you an idea of where Putin stands in Russia, a Russian polling firm did pills before and after the invasion, and after the invasion Putin dropped 20 points.

I mean, there's absolutely zero context given for this, but ok. This was from 25 years ago, this somehow justifies Putin?

Also, lol at the comments, particularly this guy

That's really funny, because as I was watching the video I was thinking about how you definitely do still notice it back then, it's just less pronounced. This commenter is just a moron. Biden stammers at around the 13s mark and you can hear him slur a little bit. You can kind of notice in his jaw movements that he has difficulties forming some sounds. He seems to talk out of the side of his mouth a lot.

"American consumers are already struggling with the highest inflation in four decades — a phenomenon that is eating into buying power and eroding wages. But more economic pain may be in store, with one analyst estimating that the recent surge in gas prices following Russia's invasion of Ukraine could add up to $2,000 in annual costs to the typical household budget.

The average cost for a gallon of regular gasoline has surpassed $4 per gallon for the first time since 2008. Many consumers have seen prices at the gas pump rise swiftly, with the price of regular gas jumping 41 cents during the first full week of Russia's war in Ukraine, according to AAA."

More with the rise in prices of everything on the shelves.

Question is how do we feed a russian insurgency?

Justification - no.  Context - yes.  Pointing out that the West may not have managed the post breakup Soviet Union period as well as it could have vis a vis Russia.
