    These are the new faces of the GOP. They don't care about war crimes by Putin because standing with Putin is more important to them than kids being slaughtered. Can you imagine if people at a BLM rally started slaughtering kids for sport? They sure as hell wouldn't stand for that. Putin is white. Putin hates Gays. Putin is their idol because Trump stands with Putin so that means Putin is good.

    For all of those Russian tank crews, what a time to be alive?

    Blinken: Ukraine will have 10 anti-tank systems for each Russian tank

    Ukraine will soon have 10 anti-tank systems for each Russian tank. US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken promises to continue supplying Western weapons.

    “Each Russian tank will soon have 10 anti-tank systems in Ukraine,” Blinken said.

    On Thursday evening, Ukrainian officials announced that, in anticipation of major battle in the area, they were evacuating a broad swatch of eastern Ukraine. Residents in a number of cities and towns were urged to show up at bus stops and train stations. From there, they would be taken out of the conflict zone and delivered to Kyiv or other locations where they would be safe.

    On Friday morning, Russia bombed the train stations in at least four locations. At least 35 people, gathered with a handful of their belongings, seeking to escape the invasion, were killed on the station platform at Kramatorsk. How many have died in other locations is still unknown.

    No doubt, her career trajectory from British Conservative darling to News Corp to the self described "Alex Jones of the left" is something.

    Never Trust Russia/Putin.

    This is going to get uglier.....as Russians come home in body bags.

    You might be able to hit an attack helicopter with a Javelin, but you can't hit a missile or a fighter-bomber. That's what's doing the worst damage. Worse than even the Russian artillery. Javelin's are fantastic against tanks and other armor, though. That's been proven in Ukraine beyond any doubt. Ukraine needs serious anti-air systems more than anything else. There's a limit to what the Stingers and the similar UK "man-pads" can do.

    I don't think that's how it works for Russian families. Don't think that army wastes petrol on shipping dead bodies.

    Somehow the West needs to break through the Russian Net and show what their country is doing in the Ukraine....show their people that Putin is lying and they are committing atrocities...
