#2 Excessive Gov't borrowing and spending cannot be the cause of inflation. The Russian default has worked well in the past. Let's just go with what works.

#3 The wise thing to do would be to reach out to such hackers and incentivize them to work for your interests. You're sending billions into bottomless shitholes and contracting skimmers and bullshit specialists all year round anyway for heaven's sake.

#6 With that attitude the Biteme Administration is not competent enough to prevent hackers from taking over airliners full of people and crashing them if immediate ransom is not paid.

#7 Russian or Ukrainian? In this case a non-difference difference.

#8 Funny how this stuff didn't happen while Trump was in office.

#9 ^
According to the Dems, they didn't want to embarrass their "Russian Agent", while he was in office. \ sarc off

#14 Is it me, Natasha is looking hotter as the years go by... Needs a new hair style and those eyebrows, well they need a little something... hey, how about a redux based upon the look of that teacher that was caught sucking a nipple on live cam the other day, Natasha would look smashing with that make over... Yeah, that's the ticket. She needs to 86 Boris, and get out and about...

As for Boris, he looks like that NJ RINO former Governor Chris Christy, only with a moustache... no hope for him, really... but he would fit right in with the Biden Admin, same mental capacity and attitude... 'nothing to worry about here just sit back and take the madness that surrounds you'....

#18 As if the Chinese don't have an entire division of the PLA devoted to hacking. Joe knows this...at least he or whoever is pulling his strings should know. I've said it before, we should put both countries and Ukraine as well into a firewall that blocks them from accessing any computers anywhere in the United States. When they complain about it, tell 'em to FOAD.

Of course, we all know Biden would never do any such thing.

#20 They didn't do it under Biden's predecessor cause they might have calculated getting the Soleimani treatment.

#21 No problem! Put it all in trucks! Drive 'till you drop!

The Department of Transportation issued a regional emergency declaration on Sunday that relaxes hours-of-service regulations for drivers carrying gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other refined petroleum products in 17 states and the District of Columbia.

#22 ^-- yeah having hundreds of exhausted, sleeping drivers hauling gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and other refined petroleum products is perfectly safe.
