Glimmer of hope That this was behind closed doors shows that Putin's operatives in the GOP are working hard to crush dissent from the Putin path.

Biden's trip to Eastern Europe will go far to helping cement what Trump and Putin wanted to smash.

all of it from stooges and trolls. Supposedly the Real, real GOP doesn't like Mitt but lurves them some Tulsi.

Lots of pro Tulsi Gabbard twitter tonight didn't like Mitt taking her to task for supporting Asad and Putin.

So, its not a Real real thing.

The White House has been playing this so damn well. Its like watching a Verlander no-hitter except the fact that they can't actually stop a lot of human suffering in Ukraine. They are doing much more sub-rosa than we are seeing.

I admire them trying this. They know that China is the bigger problem long term and having it behave according to International norms matters much more. Meanwhile, China is MUCH worse and will be trying to navigate how to be total bastards to the Taiwanese population when the World is watching. Its not the internal issue that the Uighers can seem like, when nobody has an idea of just how many people you are genociding.

Yeah, This is entry level derog on Russian assets

I dunno seems risky

These guys are delusional.

Chickens coming home to roost

Evidence of things going great for Putin The "loyalist replace technocrats" thing is the worst poison an organization can imbibe. And it happens when the leader has no appetite for reality.

Consider the source. BUT, if Russia wants to go there...mighty fine fleet you used to have Russia
