| #25 all the billions that we airlifted into Baghdad in the early days of the Iraq War I'd love to see the source documenting that we sent billions to Baghdad while it was controlled by Saddam. |

| #24 ^ just so long as the land bride doesn't know what the sea maiden's up to |

| #23 Nope. The Russuans have been so severely pimpslapped the Ukranians won't stop. Sure the Russians have land bride but for how long? |

| #22 Ukraine will sue for peace. The $40 billion package will be squandered or stolen by the Ukrainians the same way the Iraqis stole all the billions that we airlifted into Baghdad in the early days of the Iraq War. |

| #20 SURRENDER AT MARIUPOL "The surrender at Mariupol solidified the conquest of a once-thriving southeastern port, which unlocks a land corridor between Crimea and east Ukraine. This would give President Vladimir Putin a stronger position in any negotiated settlement to end the war, U.S. officials have said." An enormous development. Russia has achieved the paramount goal of the invasion. The land bridge to Crimea is complete. |

| #19 Russia committed so many troops to Ukraine they only have 25 BTGs left for all their borders - so yes, if China wanted to they could Cake Walk into Town. |

| #16 If it makes you feel better, Russian troops also took up positions inside the Chernobyl exclusion zone, even dug trenches and bunkers through the layers of sand and soil intended to cap off the radioactive debris. They'll die young. People who come in contact with their gear will possibly die young. Their children may have all sorts of defects. All because Putin has a teeny little peepee. |

| #15 Any decent human wants him dead, that pissant toad is worse than Hitler. Hitler's SS troopers preserved this, Putin's Russian robots destroyed it. Thank God the Russian Army is run by a bunch of mindless crooks. https://twitter.com/EuromaidanPress/status/1526563707186290691 |

| #14 Maybe not the whole world but whoever pulls Joe Biden's strings has wanted Putin dead for quite some time now. |

| #12 Better to know your enemy who's demonstrated a serious lack of quality equipment and operational acumen than one you really haven't tested yet but who is armed to the teeth knowingly awaiting you. |

| #11 I'm guessing it would be a hell of a lot easier to cross the Amur River than the Taiwan Strait. |

| #10 China is salivating, when Russia’s military is severely depleted, China will start taking eastern Russia. It's why God suggested machinegun-artillery divisions for Russian eastern provinces. |

| #5 Over/under is 3:1 that Christopher Steele will be dead before Durham can put him on the witness stand |

| #4 Over/under on how long until he's found dead? I'm betting two weeks from now his entire family will be found dead and it will be ruled a murder/suicide. The suicide will involve four shots from a bolt action rifle. |

| #3 You mean the Russians bought another Christopher Steele dossier? |
