Germany has stepped up, stating it will stop its work on the Russia to Europe pipeline after the most recent maneuvers from Moscow.

US still playing  it cagey with their wording of what they even think Russia is doing.  Brianna Keilar of CNN did a nice job this morning grilling one of Biden's security advisors, Jon Finer.   Statements from the WH have been vague.  But in all I think we are handling this OK.

Yeah, Russian troops are in Donetsk and Lugansk and they will support the separatist claims to triple the size territory they actually hold.  You have to play word games to have that not be an invasion.   Time to shut down international banking.  Etc.

And time for Germany to hold off mothballing its three nuke plants.

This could be a replay of Crimea.  Sanctions will be levied, but Russia will go ahead and annex anyway.

Less than three hours deliberation and jury finds Arbery murderers guilty on all federal hate crimes.

This was a racist lynching.

Where those Green Bay sweeps are trying to lead us.

Republicans have declared war on the United States as it rejects their pale clammy embrace.

The notion this bill levels the playing field is truly Orwellian.  The incumbent gets a ton of free promotion all throughout their term.  Kemp is crooked as a dog's leg.

How he got the job in the first place. They wear out their welcome in one position while all the time scheming up.

We need to look at ways in which diplomacy has worked in the past, and ways in which the good people have peacefully won against tyranny.

And we can bring in the Elders; Silvio Berlusconi, and the former King of Spain Juan Carlos, they are both friends with Putin, Putin likes and respects those guys.

If Lech Walesa is still healthy then he can help to organize and teach people.

There is a team of Elders featuring former world leaders, and it is time ti bring in the Elders.

We need to handle this situation like peaceful, civilized adults, not like children on a playground. We need to bring in the Elders.

And the people need to stand up and demand peace, including the Russians, the people in Russia need to march for peace nd they need to tell Putin that everyone wants peace.

Salute,

Tony V.

It's really good of Trump to work so hard on behalf of the Dems in 2022 and 2024.

I don't think we could have paid him to do this.
