In the days since Vladimir Putin denied Ukraine’s sovereignty in a blistering speech, the prospect of a diplomatic solution to the crisis has all but collapsed.
“Nobody can say what will happen next,” he said.
Actually, Biden has been telling us pretty much exactly what was going to happen. I would wait for the next WH press release for coming episodes of Russian activities.
“Repel the aggression from Ukraine” !!! That’s positively Trumpian except its the kind of thing TFG would borrow from Vlad.
“A leader of one of the Russia-backed republics demanded on Wednesday that Ukraine abandon the full territory of Donetsk and Luhansk…”
The Mouse Drunken, Mangy, Plague-Infested, Little Rat That Roared
Just remember that this is the last territorial demand that Putin will make in Europe.
I’ve heard this referred to as a “Signals War”. If that’s so then our victories are signals victories and every government understands the importance of informing the public of victories.
Sad that stealing billions from the Russian people wasn’t enough for Vlad. Now he wants to kill them.
The fool Putin has opened the gates of hell. War brings unintended consequences. For everybody. And Putin isn’t acting from strength or wisdom. He’s weak and his reasoning is addled, the worst kind of aggression.
The GOP has been allowed to think and act like adolescents for a long time. Lying for advantage and misinforming as art.
They have a choice to make
Do we have the capability to sabotage Russia’s cyber capabilities. General McCafferey is talking up our cyber capabilities on Niccole right now. Why can’t we sink the ship as soon as it leaves harbor, if not before.
Please. Do. It!
“The moves come as Russia and its proxies make increasingly hysterical demands of Ukraine and the West”
The three latest demands are for Ukraine to recognize Crimea as Russian territory, agree to never join NATO, and give up all NATO-supplied military hardware. The first two might be negotiable, but the last one is the poison pill designed to be rejected, and cause a pretext for invasion.
Oh, this is good. I can’t wait for discovery.
There can never be a “diplomatic” solution for a skinned rat like Putin whose big aim in life is to destabilize and then destroy any law-based order in any nation on earth.
For those following along on the farm:
We are up to four moms having delivered and a total of six babies - 3 of each. Two sets of mixed twins (boy and girl), and two singletons, one of each.
Way OT, but

We can probably disrupt Russian economic and utilities infrastructure with cyber attacks. Like shutting down electric power generating plants, mess up civilian Internet. Briefly, anyway.
Russian military command and control will be hardened and not connected to the open Internet. Much harder to crack. We probably can’t stop the tanks rolling in with cyber attacks. It’s also possible that we might not want to show the Russians exactly what our capabilities are in cyber warfare over this conflict. Might want to save the best of it in reserve, in case we ever come into direct contact with each others’ forces.
It is time for a multimillion dollar civil suit against this little twit - hook up a cash engine to a fierce as hell legal team and go after him - don’t care that he is just being used as a prop / weapon by grand-standers - go after him, his mother, his father … until all the sand runs through every hour glass on earth .
Right. Not quite the time to let the Russians know about our directed electromagnetic pulse technology.
And they will rewarded by the American electorate.
