It is the most horrific warfare we've seen since WWII and shows no sign of ending. It's Putin's hill to die on. May it happen soon. Slava Ukraini! Zelensky was a comedian. Can't imagine.

Or get a vaccine.

I don't see them holding up at all if they had to face brutal warfare.

Of course they had lots of help from the "media" and even Congress. 40 years of Rush had already alienated them, 45's admin threw gasoline on it.

To install puppets into high office, so when they invade a country it is an invasion and civil war.
Or when WWIII starts, half the country will be on the side of the autocrats.

The GOP has sold out to the autocrats.
They want what Putin has.
Total permanent power and access to all state assets.
US media is the PutinGOP propaganda arm.
