    And just how many times over the past weeks have top Russian leaders stated they were at war with NATO.

    Today they are threatening to "denazify" Poland.

  3. Don't care. Where is that 40 billion going? What will it accomplish besides lining a few pockets. We staged a coup in Ukraine trying to start up another puppet government. Worked till it didn't.

    I am sure there's lots of stuff like this in the bill

    The Ukraine legislation also includes a $174,000 payment for Anne Garland Young, the wife of Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska), who died in March at the age of 88. The payments are tradition in the chamber for the spouses or beneficiaries of lawmakers who died while still in office.

  5. It's like you're living in a parallel universe. Similar, but not quite the same. Just off enough to be troubling.

    Yeah, you don't care about a lot of stuff.
    A coup is a military takeover of a government by the country’s own forces.

    Some of us are young enough to remember 2014, eight whole years ago and there was no coup.

    You think the US could pull this off?

    This is a fraction of the US defence budget and crushing Russia is at a deep discount sale price. There will be some thievery, there always is.

  8. Yeah, I know. You would rather have tax cuts for the rich so that it can trickle down on everyone else in the form of golden rain:

    If you could just get past your first order thinking, you would realize that spending money on what is both the right thing to do and serves national security is money far better spent.

    And another high ranking Russian officer eliminated
    Captain 2nd Rank (lt colonel equivalent) Alexander Bobrov. Buh bye.
    That's 37 documented Russian Lt. Colonels wiped out. 20 Colonels. Keep throwing them in, Putin.

  10. Congress itself is a far greater threat to our freedom and security that some inept Russkies, or anyone/anything else for that matter. There is no close second, the government and all of it's agencies are what's going to bring us down. Rand Paul 2024, if they don't take him out first.
