    1. @Sen. Armstrong Can explain why your statement has no correlation what so ever to this topic in this thread??

    2. @Sen. Armstrong Why is your comment totally unrelated to this thread ๐Ÿงต ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

  1. That explains Putie’s assurance that the troops would be welcomed with flowers as liberators. His fixer in Ukraine told him so.

    1. @Thomas Krohn He said “go in find those bastards who helped and kill them”. 9/11 wasn’t our idea but we took care of the ones it was. we don’t go look for wars but we won’t back down from a fight either.๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโœŒ๏ธ

  2. When people are running around with 55 homes and 26 automobiles, and you tell us we don’t have emperors and peasants anymore, I laugh in your face hahaha.

    1. @Scott
      You don’t get 55 house by getting a job. You get that by stealing from the work of others.

    2. True but peasants are far better off than they ever have been in history. I guess that’s why they’re breeding like rabbits.

  3. The main thing is his body has been “seized”…..and doesn’t he look like one happy camper!
    Wonder how Putin’s going to look when he’s seized.

    1. @Kate go I think you’re right. He’ll do what Hitler did and “fall on the front lines, facing the enemy.” ….. at least that’s how Goebbels described it.

  4. I hope USA and NATO understand that Ukraine is the cheapest way to fix the mess of Russia (current regime there) and bring back Russia on the track to become a good (civilized) country. They must help Ukrainian people and forces there as much as possible and as rapidly as possible. Ukrainians are actually helping Europe and rest of the world by fighting with corrupt regime of Putin.

  5. The guy who solves problems for Putin is a man with too many problems of his own to worry about Putin. ๐Ÿ˜„

    1. I would enjoy seeing the oligarchs working a chain gang scenario much like โ€œCool Hand Lukeโ€ during the car wash sceneโ€ฆ
      Then, back at the barracks, well, donโ€™t drop the soap in the shower!

    1. @Flapjack I I know poor wee soul . He is probably going through caviar withdrawal symptoms as we speak…bless

  6. The FSB leak was clear regarding Medvedchuk:

    He is a coward, and he fled. He was supposed to be one of the puppets installed for the new government, but he disappeared. The russians called him a “coward”, stating that since he fled they had nobody left they can use to take over ukraine. Hence why they now refuse to do anything for him, and exchange him for soldiers.
    They can’t use him anymore, thanks to his own actions, and I guess that’s that now.

    1. @donronn 71 Thank you I wish people were able to use their heads more. If you look at most of the conflicts that have happened there is one country which amazingly is always involved and are usually the aggressors. If not direct fighting they are sponsoring someone to do it. I think this nation is the greatest threat to world peace, have a nice day Austria looks like a pretty cool place ๐Ÿ˜Ž

  7. Putin and his cronies have absolutely plundered Russia.
    Imagine being in a position where you could help your fellow countrymen and women and thinking nah, I need lots of houses and massive yachts.
    They are beyond disgust and contempt.

    1. @Rahel Raz The same – but at least they’re not raping and murdering their neighbours – I hope not anyway.

  8. “Other places they can loot!” – Luisa Kroll

    And right there, ladies and gentlemen, free of blinders, is the reason for Putin’s state capture of Ukraine.

  9. It’s an outrage….it’s despicable….just ONE yacht?
    How did this poor guy ever survive with just one yacht?

    1. Yacht was named “Dilbar.” Gawd, what a dilbar. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

  10. These censures are not to convince Utin. He has to go. These are to cause pain on people who could possibly help Putin โ€œgo.โ€ If they donโ€™t help, the sanctions remain!

  11. “He [Putin] wants people to be loyal to him, but he doesn’t believe he should be that loyal…”

    Sounds like Donny took a page out of Putin’s playbook.

    1. That’s what I was thinking. Maybe when they had their long talk alone at Helsinki. Putin was giving him pointers on how to run a government.

  12. He actually sits close to him. First guy Iโ€™ve seen not at a 40 foot conference table. He trusts this guy, and no one else. What a creep.๐Ÿคฎ

  13. “Putin wants people to be loyal to him, but he doesn’t believe he should be that loyal to them.” Sounds like Drumpf.

  14. “He is a Genius!!” “He is Savvy!!” “He declared the area as Independent, how Wonderful is that!!” “He is Smart!!” Famous Words of the Twice Impeached Insurrectionist.
