I just want one or both of the sides to actually want peace.

 

There is no evidence of that.

 

 

.

 

Nope, there isn't. You're right. 

 

I just wish Russia would take a page from Austria-Hungary's book, back in 1866.  Yes, Prussia just kicked your ass, humiliated you, and broke your influence over central Europe.  But they didn't break the back of your Empire.  So take your L, make peace, let bygones be bygones, accept Prussian rapprochment and get back to doing what works for you: throwing your diplomatic influence around the concert of Europe.

You all know Yevgeny Prigozhin - the Russian chef who admitted Russia interfered in our elections to help Trump! 
 

But DR’s cult - @BillsFanNC  and @B-Man like to “remind us” that Russian collusion is fake news - so Soviet of them.
 

 

 

 

 

 

Dude, you gotta stop with the Trump, it's sad. It's pathetic and all you're doing is projecting your phycological deficiencies. 

 

Enough already, dude, Trump. Ok, Trump, we get it. You don't like him. 

 

Now enough

 I used to KINDa be able to see a method to your madness. You're just completely off the reservation now though.

 

Your projections are truly disturbing, good luck to you.

Pollak: Biden’s Belated Rhetoric of ‘Freedom’ in Warsaw Rings Hollow
 

 

…..

that is the opposite of the foreign policy that Biden exemplified when he first took office.

 

 

His appeasement of Russia, and his incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan, invited Russian aggression in Ukraine.

Now, belatedly, he defends “freedom.”

 

It is worth noting that the Biden policy on Ukraine has now come full circle to the policy once advocated by Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) in the 2008 Georgia crisis — and which Biden and Obama, then running mates against McCain, roundly rejected in favor of their “reset.”

 

Moreover, Biden’s enthusiasm for freedom abroad diverges from his policies at home, as conservative radio host Mark Levin noted on Tuesday - 


In the U.S., Biden has pursued unconstitutional mandates, sweeping executive powers, and censorship. He also encouraged Canada to crack down on “freedom” protesters in 2022. He has left the southern border of the “land of the free” largely undefended.

 

The speech would have been great if it had been delivered years ago — which it was, by President Donald Trump, who also told Warsaw that western civilization, and Ukraine in particular, were under threat from Russia:
 

Today, the West is also confronted by the powers that seek to test our will, undermine our confidence, and challenge our interests. To meet new forms of aggression, including propaganda, financial crimes, and cyberwarfare, we must adapt our alliance to compete effectively in new ways and on all new battlefields.

 

We urge Russia to cease its destabilizing activities in Ukraine and elsewhere, and its support for hostile regimes — including Syria and Iran — and to instead join the community of responsible nations in our fight against common enemies and in defense of civilization itself.

 

 

For his trouble, Trump was called racist. The media also persisted in portraying him as a Russian stooge, when in fact he was pressuring Russia and trying to warn Europe.

 

By attacking Russia in sweeping terms, Biden has made negotiations more difficult. He accused Russia of “crimes against humanity” — which may be true, but the threat of prosecution gives Vladimir Putin a reason to keep fighting, and perhaps to resort to nuclear arms.

 

There was also more than a hint of domestic politics in Biden’s address. In his attempt to frame Russia’s invasion as an attack on democracy, he evoked Democrats’ claim to be defending democracy against Donald Trump in particular and Republicans in general. (That’s really what this is about Democrats think they’re fighting Trump - that’s how deranged they are just see Bill’s posts above as proof)

People like @Buffalo_Gal aka Ann - was a big fan of the IGNORE feature... of course, you would never dare call her out, right?

 

 

I have absolutely no idea who that is or how it relates to your ridiculous desire to scream from on top of a tall tower in hopes that everyone will ignore you. If you’re going to scream, just accept that people are going to tell you to shut up now and again. Unless you’re a twelve year old, I’d have thought you’d have learned that by now.

Time to play a fun game called “was this posted by a DSA member or MAGA!” This is getting harder and harder every time.

At the risk of missing something, where are these bizarre numbers coming from?

Our GDP is about one tenth of what is claimed, and defense is about 800b as opposed to the claimed 1.9 trillion.

 


His source is “he made it up”

BEA statement puts estimate of 2022 US GDP at $26.15 Trillion. 

 

https://www.bea.gov/news/2023/gross-domestic-product-fourth-quarter-and-year-2022-second-estimate

 

Fiscal year 2022 defense spending around $778 Billion.  A fun fact is that if you add the budgets of the next 7 biggest spenders China, Saudi Arabia, India, France, Russia, Britain, and Germany the US spends more than those 7 combined.  But where the $1.9 Trillion quote in the post a couple entries above is coming from who knows?
