“We didn’t poison him but as it happens I coincidentally have a very bad opinion of him.” You might as well go ahead and wink, if you’re saying that.

“Scumbag”!? Where’d he learn that kind of talk? Oh, never mind. I think I know.

Exactly. If you didn’t know who the speaker was, you’d swear this was Rump speaking about whoever he perceives as an enemy.

Their economy is already burned to the ground so much that they had to rise retirement age a few weeks ago. I think it is higher than life expectancy, for men at least.

This kind of talk, I mean hating others for their grievances, imagined and real, is exactly what their leaders use to keep population from revolting against the thieves who looted the country in the last couple of decades. Seems like we are living through a similar moment here.

Truth is someone who betrays their country for money is a scumbag; however…

So Putin feels the same way about the ex-spy that Americans - well, at least real, patriotic Americans - feel about Trump.

Really depends on the country’s government, doesn’t it? I can’t imagine thinking of any German who betrayed the NAZI’s in WW II as a scumbag. And certainly some of them were getting paid, because how else are they going to stay fed and alive?

Not enough. Their population needs to know their leaders are to blame and as long as those criminals are in charge, things will get worse.

And no, we have not even begun to put pressure on Russia. They need to have all their foreign assets seized and all of those oligarchs need to be put on international arrest warrants if they dare set foot out of that country. They need to be cut off from the SWIFT system and removed from the global economy in what ever other way possible. They want to screw with our country we screw with theirs 100x worse.

And for the record - screw their leaders and their lies. They need to be crushed period. Russians have been and always will be the world criminal unless somebody slaps their asses down.

Putin is doing a pretty good job of slapping their assess down.

I call Putin a scumbag who betrayed his species. You throw in Trump and all the lizard brain greed mongers off the world too.

The old SMERSH may be gone, but its tradition and practice of killing those deemed traitors continue.

SMERSH was officially counter intelligence, but with a license to kill . Yep, life imitates fiction.
