Sounds like Putin gave the Epstein treatment to Navalny.  A terrible ending for a heroic figure that resulted, in part, from Old Joe's weakness and mental impairment.   None of our enemies have any fear of the incompetents in charge of the US.  Meanwhile the endless war rages on in Ukraine with our politicians falling all over themselves to send more billions with no apparent objective or plan.  They just want to control the flow of money.

Billions wasted or stolen.  Tens of thousands dead and cities destroyed.  And things are worse off today for Ukraine than when the war began.  And what is the plan?   There doesn't appear to be one except to spend more money for an endless war.  No one ever learns the lessons of history.   Funding wars for with no plan for winning is futile.  Eventually there will be some type of negotiated settlement.  The kind of settlement that could have been reached on the first week of the conflict.  Everyone except the military contractors will be worse off for prolonging the suffering.

Old Joe is trying to force a ceasefire in Gaza while desperately seeking funding for his endless war in Ukraine.  Unreal.   He has no plan or policy in either case.  He does nothing in the interest of the US because he can't figure out what that even is.  He changes direction with the political winds.  The radical anti-Semitic leftists are anti-Israel.   So whoever is in charge tell Joe to take a stand against Israel.

I truly feel sorry for the people of Ukraine who are caught between Putin's aggression, the greed and incompetence of the US politicians, and the disinterest of "Europe."  They are being used as cannon fodder by the US establishment to gain access to billions in military contracts to refight the Cold War with no plan for winning or ending the war.   The deaths and destruction will go on and on.  Perhaps for years or decades.  When all is said and done, they will likely not get more than they could get in a good faith negotiation today.

Old Joe is sending another $300 million to Ukraine despite not having authorization from Congress.  His endless war must go on and on.  Even the Vatican is calling for negotiations to end it but there is no profit in that for the military contractors.

The state armed US propaganda media machine is in hyper drive this week to criticize the Russian elections.  The election is "rigged."  The irony abounds.  And, of course, at least Russia is having an election. Ukraine, which the propaganda machine tells us is a bastion of democracy, has suspended its election.   Unreal.  The media does not report this.  Meanwhile Dems are raging and trying to interfere with Israel to force an end to that conflict.  At the same time, they are frantic to fund the endless war in Ukraine.  I wonder why?  Old Joe certainly spent a lot of time in Ukraine as VP including an apparently meaningless trip there during his last days as VP.   What is his fascination with that country?  Ask Dirty Hunter.

The average age of the Ukranian front line solder is 43!  Zelensky just recently lowered the draft age.  Over a million men of draft eligible age have fled the country.  It sounds like the final days of WWII with the Germans using the Volkssturm.  Not a great sign.  Old Joe is not concerned with finding a way to end this war.   He only wants Israel to stand down because that war is hurting his poll numbers.  He is promising "consequences" against Israel.  But Trump, with his Jewish daughter and grandchildren and strong support of Israel, is the antisemite according to our completely unbiased press.
