    Typical Russians raping the land deliberately and unknowingly. Vid was tragic-comical in how it got worse n worse.



    For the Libertarian and con Russia lovers, it's real easy for this **** to happen to us while yall slash n burn "burdensome environmental regs"

    Strange that Russia made a public announcement.

    40,000 Russian troops must be praying that the Ukrainians run out of bullets.

    Biden in his press conference yesterday said that they've actually been retreating for awhile, and they've known this... but interesting that they finally acknowledged it publicly the day after the midterms.

    My guess is Putin knows that if the Democrats hold enough power after the mid terms, they'll be able to fund another major aid package that could be decisive in fully taking back all of Ukraine.

    Too bad Ukraine doesn't have real air power. They would turn that retreat into the Highway of Death part 2 if they did.

    Want free swimming lessons? Join the Russian Army!

    As a plus one experience, you get to dodge incoming artillery while you learn to swim.

    What has been the greatest triumph

    Russia winning in Ukraine
    The Truss Government
    Elon winning over Twitter
    The Red Wave in the midterms.

    Need Tucker Carlson @Commodore @Space Ghost to comment

    After Game Three that the Astros were done. They couldn't hit, the Phillies would slug their way to the WS win and the Phanatic would be hosting the WS trophy on the floor of CBP after Game 5.

    What are you talking about? I hope the Russians get out of Ukraine and the fighting stops.
    That is not my concern. How much money and time must we keep Ukraine propped up? Americans are going to have a much lower tolerance than they did with Afghanistan.

    How much is too much for you?


    I don't think you need to worry about this becoming an Afghanistan.

    US involvement in Ukraine since the war started: 54B. 0 US lives lost. Not nation-building. Ukraine military winning. Ukraine has the heart and mind of the locals.

    US involvement in Afghanistan: 2.3T, ~7K US lives lost. Nation-building. Afghanistan military didn't stand a chance. Afghanistan never had the heart and mind of the locals.

    Ukrainians are not fighting the Taliban with American money.
