For Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, life indeed imitates art.
During a virtual address on Tuesday, Zelensky urged the European Parliament “to prove they are with us” by allowing Ukraine to join the European Union, which currently has 27 members, amid Russia’s unprovoked invasion of the country.
Greatest Hits Part II will be even better than the first.
So they elected a pretty cool dude. We got TFG. Shit. Well played, Ukraine.
It is like they got Jon Stewart.
And Patrick Stewart. Maybe even Jimmy Stewart.
I can see that they got the Stewart Clan.
Hello everyone,
Here is the news from our son and daughter-in-law.
Right now, they are in their hallway and there was a loud explosion. The Russians hit the train station in Kyiv, and it looks like the Russians are cutting off all escape routes out of Kyiv. They do not know what the damage is, but the explosion was not to loud. They are about 11Km from the station.
Our son put this question out to us, “About 7 hours of silence from the Russians. Are they running low on ordnance or were they distracted?” The past two nights they have been quiet for seven hours at night and we told him that the Russians have been rationing their ammunition and that they are running low on fuel and food. I told him that we noticed in the first two days of Iraq the US had 504 strikes and the Russians only had two hundred strikes in Ukraine.
Then he sent me this:
Russia has the 5th largest army in the world, something like that. Their forces act like a mob in uniform. No order in the ranks. That tells you their officers and NCOs are shitty at their jobs. I was no perfect Sergeant, but my men would never behave likes this or even allowed to break our orders from command. I worked in logistics in the Army, and this is insane. The person in charge in supplies, wow. Such an embarrassment.

‘Russian heroes’ after saving Ukraine from fascists and nazis are saving Ukrainian sausage. Eat, eat because your ‘great commanders’ gave you the boxes with food that expired in 2015. That’s probably when you were actually dead to them. Who are you serving?!!!
This is so sad.
I enjoyed my time in Kharkiv. I made plans to go back during the summer time before the war. There are paths along the river and of course a garden my wife definitely would have taken me. Gorky Park was beautiful when I was there. One could buy a tree or plant and the park will update your plant’s status.
Downtown Kharkiv before and during the Russian aggression. Kharkiv is the second-largest city in Ukraine. Its residential areas have been targeted by Russian shells, rockets, bombs, missiles for days now.
Last thing to report, if they do not have enough troubles as it is, now they have roving bands of marauders breaking into homes or apartments looking to steal anything they can find. When the locals find them, they are not being nice to them.
This is why both TFG and Putin have such a thing for taking Zelensky down.
TFG does his ridiculous herky-jerky hand arm pumps while feet are planted and thinks he’s dancing, and Putin poses in all sorts of shirtless pix and does a judo move where it appears he bested his opponent, both expecting the ladies to swoon.
Then along comes a good-looking, talented, funny guy with better abs than Vlad who can DANCE – damn that guy can dance! – and act, and be part of hilariously raunchy acts on stage that don’t come off as repulsive, and he clearly didn’t need to gain money and power to have the wimminfolk (and menfolk, too) smile upon him.
And now, he’s courageous and decent in doing everything possible to protect his country and people, while the fat-ass keeps whining and sniveling and his Russian friend is afraid to let even his own closest cronies within twenty yards of him. Zelensky is twice the man either of those poseurs are.
Wow. This guy is like an antidote to all these small-minded, self-obsessed authoritarians. If Vladimir fails, Volodymyr is going to be the freaking poster boy for the entire world’s democracies.
With respect, I think it is a shitty time to post this article.
I understand the instinct, but I think Zelensky would shrug and say, “if it helps Ukraine.”
No wonder Putin hates him!
I think I’m in love… Yeah, yeah, I know it’s shallow, but remember how people drooled over Obama? Having a leader who’s fearless and has a sense of humor is so important.
Trump/Putin. Democracy.
Both can’t exist at the same time.
