I sure hope we never get invaded. Add in the idea of handing out free guns to civilians and our leaders will be too busy dealing with anti-2A protesters, apologizing to women for such a crassly sexist edict, and trying to figure out how to implement said edict in the LGBTQ+ community to worry about a silly little thing like Russians in Seattle.
Ukraine has patriots taking Sunday drives just casually tossing Molotovs into Russian tank treads and we have citizens throwing sissy fits over putting a strip of cloth over their mouths during a pandemic.
We get invaded pretty sure you'll see drag queens packing purple Hello Kitty semiautomatics right alongside ultra conservatives holding an AR in one hand and a flame thrower named "Holy Spirit". Won't matter. (And yes, my niece-in-law has a purple Hello Kitty semi with a matching handgun. )
There are people on both sides entirely too consumed by petty garbage, trying to one-up people, etc. People, and I mean everyone, here in the US need to take a hard look at themselves.
The image in this tweet is why this situation is incredibly unnerving — Putin is simply NOT a sane person right now. I’ve read reporting of him being a germaphobe and that Covid did a number on him because he essentially hasn’t been NEAR anyone in the past two years. Holding meetings this way (as pictured) is not going to yield a scenario where someone listens to subordinates’ opinions in a rational manner. He truly is flying solo and if he fears Covid to such an extreme degree imagine how he truly feels about the threat of “the West.”
So I Googled it and apparently there is no mechanism written into the UN Charter to kick a member of the Security Council out. There is to remove from the UN, but not the Council. Ugh. They need to be gone.
While childish idiots here and in the right wing echo chamber were blaming all this on Biden, he was working through quiet diplomacy on things like the Swiss cutting off Russian bank accounts. In other words, he was being a grown up and a real president and not a man baby who tries to extort other countries for dirt on political opponents.
Keeping distance to reduce assassination attempts was my thought or to tell them they are insignificant, do not interfere Certainly Marco seems to be repeating that he is “off” in his interviews.
Those guards that open doors for him need to do the world and their fellow soldiers/people the favor of shooting him.
When did NATO invade Chechnya? When did NATO invade Georgia? When did NATO invade Crimea? In what way is NATO a problem for anyone that isn't trying to take over other countries?
Thank God you don't have to get within six feet of someone to throw a Molotov cocktail at them. When it gets down to hand-to-hand in the streets, I'm gonna need to see some vaccination papers first.
His current actions and Rubio's comments about the average life span of a Russian male may point to a reason for his impatience.
This reminds me. On ready.gov I'd mentioned the nuclear attack page was just updated 2/25. I'd checked it before then. There's COVID19 protocols for a nuclear attack LOL. Yes because THAT'S the biggest worry when a nuke is incoming. Nuclear Explosion | Ready.gov "...Go to the basement or middle of the building. Stay away from the outer walls and roof. Try to maintain a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who are not part of your household. If possible, wear a mask if you’re sheltering with people who are not a part of your household. Children under two years old, people who have trouble breathing, and those who are unable to remove masks on their own should not wear them. STAY INSIDE Stay inside for 24 hours unless local authorities provide other instructions. Continue to practice social distancing by wearing a mask and by keeping a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who not part of your household."
