no barracks, no tents, no sleeping bags.

Gonna be cold in Ukraine in a couple of weeks.

media consulting firm

Translation - they run a grifting firm to skim 15-20% off the top on ad buys, paid for by donations from the GQP rubes.

Yeah. It’s October, for God’s sake. I hope they find some place for those poor bastards to go. I have no particular affection for the Russian people generally right now, but it’s unconscionable to grab people up and just stick them in a field. You’d think nobody involved is even trying.

Adding to my comment on the Russian mobiks: At least someone told them not camp too close together, in large groups.

Trump could be locked up or drop dead but that would not solve the problem of 76 million shitty people in America.

If we can just get the half of them to crawl back under that gigantic rock!

To be fair, Sydney is 15 hours later than ET. If the Tweet was posted 10:00 AM ET, it was 1:00 AM in Sydney and could have easily been overlooked until the next morning in Sydney, which might have been after 6:00 PM ET.

“Whitewashing”? More like celebrating.

CPAC chair Matt Schlapp …he had missed it “due to my travel into a distant time zone.”

Well at least he had a reason. Likely the CPAC official homing pigeon with the message got lost in the hurricane.

Actually, Schlapp was misquoted. He really said that he was in a “different mind zone.” The mind zone that doesn’t recognize reality.

Bingo. Since it’s tomorrow in Sydney, the tweet never happened here, since it was deleted prior to us reaching tomorrow yesterday.

So deleting it-- will have seriously fucked with the tweet-space continuum?

Denys Davydov said in today’s video that Russia thought it had 1.5 million uniforms in storage since it had paid for them. But the uniforms do not exist.

I find it interesting that CPAC has to money to spread their message internationally.

Certain… donors, can’t risk entering the United States.

@kelaine

Also at CPAC

Wasn’t that last year?

[austin_dave]

It’s already cold in Ukraine.

Sure they do. They just happen to look like a superyacht docked in Barcelona.

Dire conditions of the Russian Army.

They’ll never survive combat if they can’t learn to hold a phone the right way.

@mattinpa

Tell me they’re not taking Russian money.

They’re not taking Russian money… now that Russia cannot afford to keep funding republican campaigns. And the money that does become available goes to trump’s legal defense. I was gonna say it goes to trump’s lawyers, but we know he won’t pay them.

At a minimum, creates another branch of the multi-verse.

I’d really like to be in a very different branch of the multi-verse, a lot about this one sucks.

Gee, what happens when an ill-equipped army tries to cross Ukraine in winter? Are there any historical examples to guide us?

[pshah]

Boy, are CPAC members ever going to have a hard time answering that question on the US customs form: Have you been exposed to any blood and soil and/or fascists while abroad?
