If I could win a lottery & learn fluent Ukrainian, I'd move there eventually, but the greater hitch is the latter. RuZZia is Mordor & Putin belongs in the Hague.

MAGAs are Children of a Lesser GOP and also political oppositional defiance disorder cases.

This from July deserves another look now. Found it after searching for this UA living legend's famous Feb. 26 2022 video address to the RuZZian troops, but it was hard to find, even googling his surname. The war is being erased, bit by bit.

Next up, that taunting video...

What's more dubious than the "Sputnik Light" Russian COVID-19 vaccine? Expired vaccines with altered expiration dates. Kirill Dmitriev, the head of the RF sovereign wealth fund & a key negotiator viz Trump, plotted for them to be sent to Africa, for public relations: www.reddit.com/r/UkraineWar...

While the Trump regime continues to demand that Ukraine appease RuZZia by giving Putin nearly everything he wants, the UA military continues to erode the RF's ability to sustain its war. The initial mushroom clouds were great, but the secondaries more... impactful. www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/co...

Turnabout is fair play, so I'm looking forward to when the GOP fascists retreat under their rocks and everyone else stages a retaliatory pogrom: "Report a 'fash' and earn some cash!".

Sanctions-evasion schemes supply tens of millions' worth of ball bearings to RF from abroad: united24media.com/war-in-ukrai... I suspect some imports are sub-par when compared to the quality of the three foreign-owned factories' railroad cassette bearings made in RF prior to Feb. 2022.

It wouldn't surprise me if Trump and the GOP were to float or outright advocate minimizing penalties for domestic violence against women... which is what his pal Putin did, in Feb. 2017. (Recall also DJT's ripping Ivana's scalp.)

I hope that the ethical and pissed-off Europeans who've cancelled their travel plans (even for conferences!) to the US, only to see the US$ plummet relative to the Euro, don't yield to tempation.

A logo (suitable for T-shirts, bumper stickers, & more!) idea: a "three-peach" campaign to get Cheeto Mussolini impeached for a third time, using a graphic like this.

Notes: torn between "three-peach" and "three-peat"; the emojis aren't perfect; the blue check should be bolder & red+white+blue.

A great two-page essay on Trumponomics and how our twice electing a "radical fascist felon" is wrecking the US's reputation and economy both. MAGA morons don't understand the significance of the dollar's being the world's reserve currency and how much it'll cost us if/when it loses that status.

By this logic, it seems: 1) migrants seeking asylum from violent gangs are undeclared-war refugees, & 2) anyone who has in any way aided, abetted, or enriched said gangs is a traitor and/or terrorist in their "invasion". I'll add that as the UN host, the US has a heightened duty to war refugees.

The AEI's Steven Kamin had so much rebutting to do of Miran's macroeconomics, monetarist ideas, and policy prescriptions that he had to break it into two parts. Here's the second: www.aei.org/economics/ce... And I used to bemoan the neo-mercantilist Peter Navarro's stewed antics.

To return to the speech by Miran that the WH puffed, here's a rebuttal by an AEI sr. fellow of a '24 paper by Miran: www.aei.org/economics/co... Is there a feud between the Manhattan Inst. & the American Enterprise Inst.? And will this be inspiring an ultraviolent Scorsese film? One can only hope.

Literally the top queries. // What these laissez-faire fundies want, it would seem, is an unabashedly oligarchic post-democratic US in which the current ratio of public:private schools and govt.-run prisons:privately-owned prisons, to name but two, are reversed.

She's been a US citizen since ~2013 and has been under sanctions since March 2022. Her hubby has been under EU sanctions, but she often travels to Europe. She's very involved in his fin arrangements.

She'd likely resent EU sanctions more. www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/... More sanctions developments:
