#1 "Did you order the liquidation of the woman who walked into the Congress and who was shot and killed by a policeman?" Mr Putin said, referring to Ashli Babbitt

Whoa! Pretty harsh dressing down -- especially from an ex-Soviet sovok.

My god but our leaders are pathetic. Poutine for Putin

#2 Valid question.

#3 Liquidation is a Rantburg auto-substitution for assassination. The underlines don't show up on mobile. You can't see what word was substituted, because that requires a mouseover, and a mobile phone has no idea what a mouseover event is because it has no concept of a mouse. Rantburg is an ancient site that was never updated for mobile devices, which are what more than half all page views are today.

#4 ^ and you pay how much to use this site? Fred occasionally asks via bleg for $ to keep it running. Asking for a specific mobile version is not very gracious

#6 Actually liquidation is a deliciously ironic term to anyone familiar with the history of Stalinist Russia.

Putin is IIUC a master of judo. He excels at putting his dumb opponents on the back foot.

He knows Biden is a moron who also suffers from dementia as well as incurable, absurdly high self-regard.

Putin's having fun now.

I doubt it - having Dr. Jill in charge of the nuclear suitcase?

#8 You might be surprised to learn how little is deleted or blocked here Spoter. Think of it as a Greyhound blog. Enjoy the view and 'leave the driving to us.'

#9 I personally think America needs more liquidations. And we need different people than we have now as the liquidators and the liquidatees...

#10 The FBI planned and coordinated the 1/6 capital attack. Poorly. The capital hitmen as Piglosi's body guards, under her supervision were to be the firewall if things the FBI were agitating got "out of hand". Problem is the capital police are too stupid to know not to shoot an unarmed female veteran carrying an American flag during his Fraudulency's certification by Piglosi.

#12 /\ Ebbo nails it. Things "got out of hand" once again.

#13 Most likely. I do feel like we are being led to be totally not surprised about the shooter. Most likely a Have You Stopped Beating Your Wife? question. Still..

Puts on hat
Wouldn't be a thing, if the seized phone data by the DOJ ended up in Moscow, and this is an accurate translation.
Takes hat off.

#16 I seem to have lost my rabbit"

I'm suddenly seeing a tv show about a US President who sees an imaginary where ever he goes. We could call it "Harvey".

#19 Biden gave Putin list of 16 critical infrastructure entities 'off limits' to cyberattacks.

WTF!
