The invasion has begun, civilians being blown to bits as the shelling starts.
Putin just struts around saying and doing what he likes, like he's king of the world, which he officially now is.
He obviously owns the UN Security Council and has *everyone* begging him not to invade.
He's warned that anyone who tries to stop him will be  subject to retaliation like they've never seen in their lives.

Ballistic missile strikes on multiple Ukrainian cities.
Yes, Vlad's turning Ukraine into ash while the world watches.
Sheesh.
And people wonder why bambu-ilk are concerned about their own future.

Andrew Bolt on Sky News said that Putin should be treated as a war criminal, same as Hitler.
Trouble is, who's going to arrest and try Putin?

Then Andrew Bolt mentioned China and Taiwan, that China says Taiwan is part of its nation.
*Everyone* knows what's going to happen to Taiwan.
Andrew Bolt then asked; "after Taiwan, who's next"?

Australia needs to get nuke-armed subs as soon as possible...like next week, not next century.

Along with Bush.  And Cheney.

Science!  Another win for Trump's Operation Warp Speed

The vaccine was developed using $2.1 billion in funding from Operation Warp Speed, the landmark effort to speed effective vaccines against Covid 19 to the US and the rest of the world. The company says it has produced and released 100 million doses and plans to supply up to 400 million more doses.

Utter bull shit of course, though it is nice that you consider Bush II "weak".

Surrender...live to fight another day.

Just got to the news this morning.  I think holy shit pretty much covers it.

Hitler invaded Ukraine at 4am.
Putin invaded Ukraine at 5am.

What's old is new again.

Yep.

The US under Bush/Cheney invaded, destroyed and occupied two countries illegally for decades.  One of the amazing and sad facts among many: after 20 years of US occupation, 75% of the Afghan budget was derived international aid.  Which the US shut off when they took their tanks and went home.  Serious concerns that removing most of the Afghan budget, plus stealing $10B of their money, plus applying sanctions on the Taliban will lead to more Afghan deaths than the 20 year US caused and funded civil war.  In any case, widespread extreme poverty is pretty much guaranteed, which will no doubt be blamed on Taliban mismanagement and corruption whenever the US media bothers to report anything from there again.

As for Ukraine, the real answer to Putin is that any offensive war is illegal, invading another country is a war crime, resulting deaths are murder.  Unfortunately the US can't really make such arguments because of the repeated and continued history of invading and attacking other countries illegally.

OWS was initiated, developed, and passed by Congress.  Another win for the US Congress!  Trump scribbled on a piece of paper and then recommended quack  medicines and gave bad public health advice, while whipping up opposition to sound science.  He didn't win a shit smear on a triscuit.
