When you have such a powerful military, taking a third of every tax dollar, you are obliged to show it off on occasion. Since you have befriended Russia, slapping down a smaller country is all you have left. When your only tool is a hammer, everything becomes a nail.

America managed to Garland away their Mueller once. If given a second chance, don't do it again.

And all the trash talk: Show them no quarter; no mercy; hit them when they are down; and such a terrible attitude.The Geneva Conventions is nothing to him. The enemy won't be wanting to take prisoners thanks to that moron.

Well, they have become very wealthy by selling their souls. Sucking up to the anti-christ seems to pay well.

Second to Trump, he is the worst, most obnoxious sob I have ever seen or heard. And constantly stressing his forces lack of mercy, giving no quarter, hitting them when they are down, not a fair fight. Is he insane talking like that? Will the enemy not be inspired to do the same if possible?

Man, I recently watched traffic flow through a fairly busy intersection in Naples Italy with NO lights or signs or traffic cop. I could hardly believe it. They cut each other slack and it worked fine. A totally autonomous vehicle would self destroy!

He's a weird combination of gamer, wrestling fan, and MAGA. The actuality of war is so far removed from his decision making process that we can only expect more of this madness.

Putin has to pinch himself to make sure that he's not dreaming. The destruction is going to be so encompassing that only a few blue States will survive intact. The rest will form weak alliances, but fail.
An useful idiot indeed.

He is so cringy embarassing that anyone with an IQ greater than their waist size would run out of the room. I don't see anyone leaving.

Very relieved to be a Canadian today. Our biggest issue seems to be some concern about our Prime Minister's exact stance on the war with Iran. He supports the US but is aware that the war is not legal under UN rules. But that is the headline news! No scandals, no corruption, no kids killed. Canada.

At the very least, expect a lot of disruptive internet action once they are back online. Power, banking, flights, etc. They are among the top three or four countries with the ability to do serious damage.

Strangely, I find it soothing blocking the dorks. It's like popping bubbles in bubble wrap. I had hoped they would have stayed on X, but they don't like the decent, intelligent people on here so they followed us.

True. The owners of EVs are driving past gas stations smiling widely now.

I hear you. I was surprised last Saturday driving into a fairly thick fog. I was more surprised that there were cars in the fog with no full light systems on. In Canada, older model vehicles often have headlights that operate in daylight, but not tail lights. Turn on the full light system people!

If you apply Occam's Razor, the answer is plain. With some inside assistance, they silenced him.

No worries. The anti-Christ will not be there. You will be able to have a nice chat with Biden though.

I scream at my TV when I hear some right wing ahole say they live in a Christian country. If Christ comes back, he'll be kicking some serious ass.

Country Joe McDonald signed off today. Sadly, he had to see his country involved in another war. Open up the Pearly Gates St. Peter, you've got a good one coming.

Good point. We Canadians caught that one immediately as did most Europeans. Maybe Trump failed history?

Was that really necessary? What the hell. Why don't they just nuke the place and end the suffering? Civilians are not supposed to be targets!

That scene scared the bejesus out of me. All hope had vanished. Here's hoping Americans save their Country from the Nazis.

And if not blackmailed, they are simply owned. You are right, the only thing you can do is hit the streets like we have seen in S. Korea, Brazil, Iran, and a dozen other places over the years.

Noem violated a very basic Mafia rule. The 'Don' gets a cut of everything that goes down in his territory. She tried to sneak that one by him (the ad scam) and got caught. If offered a ride in 'The Beast's she would be wise to decline it.
