I guess we’ll have to start using the more correct term of “White Russia” for Belarus just like we need to use “Little Russia” instead of Ukraine.
I’m as happy about the visit as any American who puts country and the peace of the world above partisan religion. But let’s all remember that an information victory means nothing if not backed up with military victory as well. In other words, if Russia’s spring offensive ends up turning the tables, then this visit was a cheap publicity stunt. And while we all hope this offensive will prove to be another tactical and operational blunder in the long string of Russian efforts to this point, nobody really knows what’s about to happen.
It continues to boggle my mind now some people perceive events in Ukraine. president visits an active war zone with no us military support? Oh sign of weakness lol.
Or it says that have open lines of communication still, that neither side wants to escalate and Russia didn’t dare do anything while he was there. All that is good news. Your constant need to find the worst possible view on any event really is strange.
Those same hypocrites in the gop who are bashing the Biden visit to Kyiv would he heaping praise on a gop potus doing the same thing. Give it a rest.
It was awesome! The American people swelled with pride while Red Square Republicans grumbled and cursed before crawling back under their bridge where the other trolls live.
I don't think so old JJ this sure doesn't seem very swelled with pride matter of fact I think they are kind of pissed off The mayor of East Palestine, Ohio, on Monday said that President Biden’s visit to Ukraine was the “biggest slap in the face” as his town continues to deal with the chemical fallout from a train derailment. https://www.wnct.com/top-stories/east-palestine-mayor-biden-ukraine-visit-biggest-slap-in-the-face/
looks like the Chechyn thug has seen writing on the wall with sidelining of their friends from Wagner. Perhaps they will pull out of Ukraine and fight for independence post Putin? sounds like he is prepping for a post Putin world while trying to make sure that supplies to his guys don't get cut off too. Chechen Warlord Reveals Plans To Arrange Own Private Army, Fueling Theories He's Preparing For Russian Civil War In Putin's Absence (msn.com) "We can say confidently that Wagner has shown its mettle in military terms and drawn a line under discussions about whether or not such private military companies are needed. When my service to the state is completed, I seriously plan to compete with our dear brother [Prigozhin] and create a private military company. I think it will all work out," he continued. Although Kadyrov is impressed by Prigozhin's actions, some are speculating by his recent comments that he may be planning an exit strategy in case Putin loses his grip on power in Russia.According to a Moscow-based expert, "This move is Kadyrov preparing for the period after Putin, when he intends to have his own large military force either to broker power in Russia — perhaps in a civil war — or even lead his own fiefdom out to a breakaway." ............................. "Remember, friends — we are following orders, not discussing them. Any appointment by the Commander-in-Chief [President Vladimir Putin], any order, any task — each of these decisions is supported by us," he said. "The combat officers of the Chechen Republic, myself included, have excellent, well-coordinated relations with the Russian Defense — and there are no disagreements. This mechanism works like clockwork." "By having access to data on the progress of the special military operation [in Ukraine], to information about the potential of the Russian army, its capabilities, and much more, I can have my own opinion, which I, as Ramzan Kadyrov, also have the right to express."
The mayor gives up the game with this quote that his concern isn't that he's not getting the support he needs to fix the problem but this is just an opportunity to take a shot at Biden: “That was the biggest slap in the face that tells you right now, he doesn’t care about us,” Conaway told host Jesse Watters. “So … he can send every agency he wants to but I found that out this morning and one of the briefings that he was in the Ukraine giving millions of dollars away to people over there, not to us and I’m furious.”
The other clue is that he appeared on Jesse Waters show to discuss this. If you want to be seen as offering serious criticism, using late night fox hosts gives away the game. I’m sure this mayor knows this, but he has political donors (patrons) to please and an agenda to accomplish. That agenda just isn’t for the people of his town.
Of course Ohio MAGAs are upset the President looks strong and is leading the free world against authoritarianism. The free world is cheering him as a true leader. My suggestion to the Mayor would be that if he’s so angry about the train derailment then his anger should be directed at the Republican congressmen in his state that voted against the infrastructure bill, and opposes any regulations that prevent these types of accidents.
Ok peaches why don't you take a trip to Ohio and have a fresh cooling glass of water out of one of those streams near the spill while you chug that down cheer on old Joe and his support of Ukraine
Or how about Biden just pulls all federal agency support instead. Isn't that how we want our leaders to behave when someone says something mean about them?
No thanks Scooter. Red State deregulation policies have always made Ohio one of the most pollution friendly places on the planet with Florida trying to catch up.
