People are breaking free, even state reps. in NY. More Manchin's and free speech are a good thing? That's the reason for censorship, they were always a minority, to begin with. Their stranglehold is getting weak because we're defeating them.

For those who are cheering your Russian heroes on. Even though Russia has the world's largest and supposedly strongest military yet they have been fumbling and bumbling their way all the way back to the Donbas (That's right, not towards it but back to it). And I know that you Russian Cheerleaders are going to argue that that was their goal all along but certainly not losing 460 mainline battle tanks (Imagine the US losing 460 M1A1 Abram's and you get the picture) and over 2000 armored vehicles plus over 10,000 Russian troops couldn't have been anywhere in their plans; not only two months into the war.

And the thing is, fighting in the Donbas isn't going to be much easier; not if tanks and armored vehicles play into your equation--which they do because Russia wasn't able to establish the air superiority (their helicopters) that they were looking for. I mean, with the American Stinger missile against Russian helicopters and anything that isn't hypersonic has to be worrying them. This leaves the Russian military to fight against the Ukrainian military which, as we can see from Russian losses, makes things more than even. And yes, we can figure Russia to adapt but so will Ukraine which sunk the p***e of the Russian Baltic fleet using its own technology. So with Russian ships and almost anything Russian in the air susceptible to Ukrainian forces, this battle in the Donbas looks to, at least be interesting...from the point of view of Ukraine that is.

Now we know the reason that Putin warned Biden to stop sending supplies to the Ukrainians; because the Ukrainians are kicking Russia's ass. And yes, I know that you will point to all the damage that Russia has done to civilian infrastructure but that's all they can target since they've effectively lost the war against the Ukrainian military. Now all of us have to hope that Biden is the coward that we hope he is because if he isn't and he doesn't give Putin the oral gratification that Trump did, then Putin is nuts enough with an ego big enough to go nuclear...and none of us want that.

Snip>>>Russia's first mistake was to underestimate the strength of resistance and the capabilities of Ukraine's own smaller armed forces. Russia has an annual defense budget of more than $60bn, compared with Ukraine's spending of just over $4bn.

At the same time, Russia, and many others, appear to have overestimated their own military strengths. President Putin had embarked on an ambitious modernization program for his military and he too may have believed that his own hype was all that was important

That last paragraph, and last sentence, are the most important because that is exactly how Soviet leaders were treated; because those under them were afraid for their lives, so telling them what they want to hear, not what they needed to hear was the rule for staying alive. And that's not surprising because in Putin we have someone brought-up as a Soviet, and in the Soviet-style, who is currently the defacto Czar/Stalin of all Russia where he now badly wanted to include Ukraine as part of HIS whole; because it was the breadbasket of the old Soviet empire.

What I love about all you conservatives, who are strict and complete anti-c*******ts with all of your very hearts, but you are happy to embrace their current leader even though he wants to rebuild the old Soviet Union! In case you don't know what's happening here: ideologically you've rejected left-wing c*******m in favor of right-wing authoritarian/f*****m, which is as far right as you can go (look it up)...and this is the important part...there isn't a lick of difference between their ruling styles. See, Stalin and Adolf Hitler if you need a reference for how far left one can go and how far right the other...then ask yourself, if there is a lick of difference? Both are dictators of the proletariat That's where you hoped Trump would lead you. And since you haven't a clue what ideology is how are you going to know when you do; when you are goose-stepping down Pennsylvania avenue--oh how badly Trump wanted you to do just that very thing! So maybe you weren't that very far from goose-stepping after all? Oh happy days, oh happy days...I can just hear it now!

And just one more thing. because Fox is threatened with going off the air if you cons don't watch them; they tell you what you want to hear not what you need to hear--else YOU WILL no longer watch them!

Sound familiar Blade-Runner? You once asked me what was wrong with this, minus the part about not watching them again...though I doubt that you ever would. Have you figured it out or has right-wing propaganda destroyed any and all ability for you to critical think...how happy that will make Putie when he's heard that you to have fallen in line!

AOC Drafts Legislation Opposing Ghost Guns: 'Ghosts Don't Even Need Guns Since They're Dead Already'

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Congresswoman AOC has recently drafted strong legislation designed to unilaterally ban ghost guns. She claims the legislation is needed since ghosts are dead already and don't actually need guns anymore.

“Why would we allow ghosts to have guns if they're dead already? The gun would simply fall through their hands,” said Congresswoman AOC. “Besides, every gun in the hands of a ghost is one less gun in the hands of the people who really need them: FBI agents."

"And in conclusion," she stated confidently, "What if a ghost DOES learn how to use a firearm? They are scary enough already! A gun is, like, the last thing they need! That’s why I am proposing legislation to stop this nonsense at once.”

AOC’s Democrat colleagues tried to explain that ghost guns referred to 3D printed and unmarked guns made by libertarians—which they also oppose—but this only spooked AOC more. “Okay, so now what do we do if ghosts learn to make their own ghost guns with 3D printers?!” said AOC in horror. “We'd never be able to stop them!"

AOC then called the Ghostbusters to capture all the ghosts before they could ever acquire ghost guns but abandoned her effort after learning that the Ghostbusters also use ghost guns.

At publishing time, AOC abandoned the legislation after finding out it would disproportionately affect Democrat v**ers.

I would like to know why they refuse to look at nature's own contribution to the record unless it blows their well-oiled BS out of place. The whole of the west coast is part of the ring of fire and is releasing built-up gases all the time. We live on a living planet that is constantly growing and changing some times large changes we see and most we don't that happen over time. Instead of scaring the crap out of people they need to help them step back and watch and appreciate the world we live on. Yes we need to continue to strive to lessen our impact on this world but we also need to enjoy the wonder that is our home

We travelled to the UK to visit my daughter and her family a year or so after trump took office. He was being ridiculed in the UK rather universally. Had we been trump supporters we would have been insulted by the way people commented on what an i***t we had for a president, as we agreed it opened people up to say what they really thought, which was seconded only by people stupid enough to v**e for him.

Then we did a layover in Germany on the way home, and Germans had no compulsion to hold back. We met a couple from New Zealand, and our conversation in the hotel dining room was lively enough to involve two other couples.

The idea that the world is laughing at Biden has nothing to do with the relief felt around the world for the US to be back as a player in foreign affairs.

Wow that is amazing South Dakota no C***d that’s awesome see don’t get mad at me I agree. Trump and South Dakota are brilliant. How many flights from China and Europe landed in South Dakota. Let’s see how many none. How many people from South Dakota went to Florida for spring break, how many people from South Dakota went to New Orleans for Marci Grais.
Oh by the way over 80% of the population in South Dakota got v******ted that’s pretty good.

Ya how many flights a day landed in South Dakota from China and Europe.. oh let’s see what’s the population of South Dakota 750,000 or 800,000 now let’s see NY city population is about 8.4 million. So I don’t think South Dakota’s is a good comparison.

As we know Trump totally ignored the CDC and world health organization. He was right F***i was 100% wrong and as Trump pointed out that Dr. F***i and the scientists at the CDC were not to be trusted so Trump hired his specialist who was often on Fox News and we know Fox News is the only News agency in this country who tells the t***h. Now Trump was right the p******c was over once Easter came and the warm weather arrived so here is the news release by Trump and his new specialist. Thank god Trump went out a got the right guy and ended the p******c a few months after the first case arrived in this country.

We need Trump back in the White House he is the only man that tells it his way we can trust Trump along with Fox News after all Tucker Carlson with his reporting on how much of a genius Putin is. This nation has to get out there to Rushmore and tell them to push those past presidents aside and install Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson as the next great Americans.

(THANK YOU TRUMP SUPPORTERS WITH YOUR SUPPORT FOR TRUMP HE SAVED SO MANY LIVES BY APPOINTING DR. SCOTT ATLAS TO HEAD HIS P******C TEAM AND TRASHING THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION. BUNCH OF GD LIARS AT THE WHO THANK GOD FOR TRUMP AND PUTIN
