Putin saw weakness in Biden and he took advantage of it. Putin was watching Biden in Afghanistan and after that fiasco was confident. He never would have done it with Trump as president which was proven from 2016 to 2020. America sees this. Idiots don't.Not only Americans see this but the rest of the world leaders as well. As I posted bellow, EU playing friends only because expect us to cover their asses in case of WW3. Privately they think otherwise!
Let's fix this for you:
It's not like Israelis need a rhyme or reason to attack someone. They don't. Just like Israel didn't need a reason to attack: fill in the blank. Sane human beings are disgusted by Israel because or what they did and do.
There you go. Try to keep it real.I am absolutely not surprised that you don't know the difference between Israel's position and Ukraine's.
Israel, in case you have been hiding under a rock for the past 70-some-odd years, is situated in a region where every single one of her neighbors has said, essentially, "you don't have the right to exist and we will do everything in our power to destroy you. " Every. Single. Neighboring. Country..
That's absolutely not the same situation as Ukraine. There you go.
Well, let's fix it.
1. There is but a single country in the world that is allowed to get away with practicing apartheid ethnic cleansing.
2. The "independence" of Lugansk and Donbass provinces was engineered by GRU agents. Conspiracy theory.
3. Ukraine, a proto fascist country, being used as a proxy tool gets flooded with free weapons.
4. Zelensky, a real comedian, unsatisfied with the glut of conventional weapons being handed to him by NATO arms producers publicly states that Ukraine should have some nukes, too. One of his stupidest and craziest moves.
5. Ukraine refused to abide by the Minsk Agreement which they signed, and their troops continued shelling civilians. They are thugs, not victims.
6. The fact that you and the people behind Senile POTUS praise an aggressor who has attacked a country that didn't present any security threat to him, tells volumes about the people running the State Department for Senile POTUS. What else is new?.7 When the US (good old Uncle Shmuel) invades -- Grenada, Syria, Iraq, Yugoslavia / Serbia, Afghanistan, the list is too long) -- it is for R2P, democracy, 'protecting' people, humanitarian intervention, human rights, etc. Etc.
When any other State does anything Uncle Shmuel doesn't like we get the hypocritical rubbish spouted by puppet parrots like xxxparton.
We've attached the Democrats statement on this issue. It can save xxxparton the strain of his further scribblings:

OK, let's get something straight right from the get go: Putin is the bad guy, the war criminal. Nobody but Putin is responsible for invading a peaceful, sovereign, democratic country and killing its citizens. He is following Hitler's playbook to the letter. Hitler justified the invasion Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia with the purported suffering of the ethnic Germans living in the region. I am getting deja vu all over again.
Now that said, the question must be asked: on who's watch did this travesty take place? Answer, Brandon. And who the fuck enabled this attacked by ending American's oil independence, cutting the Keystone Pipeline and all the regulatory BS on oil, natural gas ect thus allowing the Russians to become the predominant supplier of natural gas to Germany and Western Europe? A deal that brought in billions for the oligarchs and made Western Europe energy dependent on Putin's Russia. Answer, Brandon.
So what is Brandon going to do to rectify the situation he created and make sure that Putin pays a huge price for this aggression which just might deter the power hungry asshole from totally raping the Ukraine? The answer: More Sanctions! You have to be kidding me. Putin has already calculated the cost of sanctions to himself and his oligarchs and he don't care. The gain in oil price alone makes this a win win for him.
But what should President I like Vanilla Ice Cream every afternoon before I take a nap really do to bring Putin down and stop him cold in his tracks? It is simple. Reopen the American energy industry! The USA has a huge supply of oil and natural gas. More than any other region in the world. Biden could open that supply source up and offer it to the Germans and Europeans as an alternative, independent source of cheap, clean, American natural gas. Biden could say fuhgeddaboud the Russians. Fuck Putin!
As Jason Furman, a Harvard economist and former advisor to President Barack Obama, once said, "Russia's economy is "incredibly unimportant in the global economy except for oil and gas. It's basically a big gas station. " So, if the West stopped buying from Putin the Russian economy would crash and his tanks would rot in the Ukraine. But sadly, Putin thinks Biden is a weak fool who can be played. Putin would not have dared invade the Ukraine or any other country under Trump. So, what are the odds that Uncle Joe will open up the American Gas spigot and cream Putin?Agree with your assessment one hundred percent although I don't think the Ice cream man will open up the American oil industry. I offer one plausible reason. He's pushing the Green Deal, getting us into electric vehicles, he doesn't have to try passing any budget to accomplish it. You make the fuel unaffordable and combustion cars will soon disappear by attrition. They did say yesterday they will tap the strategic reserve, which is nothing just a drop in the bucket!
Let's go Brandon!
You been cooking on another planet the past seven years, eh shlome?
Since the two Donbas Republics declared themselves independent in like 2014, the Kiev regime has been all over them, signed and then didn't follow thru on the Minsk Agreement, took arms from the NATO forces, and who knows what else, and then publicly floated the idea of becoming nuclear armed. All the meanwhile shelling Donetsk and Lugansk. It sure took Putin long enough to get around to solving the problem."Signed and then didn't follow thru on the Minsk Agreement." Really? "A major blockage has been Russia's insistence that it is not a party to the conflict and therefore is not bound by its terms." But, sure, let's blame Kyiv. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/what-are-minsk-agreements-ukraine-conflict-2022-02-21/.
Ukraine has never had and does not currently have a nuclear weapons development plan. What they did do, however, was trade away their Russian-developed nukes for a bunch of worthless paper guarantees. In fact, in 1993, a paper was published that took the position that if Ukraine did that, they would be open for invasion by.
Russia. https://www.mearsheimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Mearsheimer-Case-for-Ukrainian-Nuclear-Deterrent.pdf.
https://amgreatness.com/2022/02/23/putins-predictabilities/It's "hear, hear." If you can't get the simple things right, how can you possibly comprehend complicated geopolitical issues?
You're surely Jest right? I'll answer point by point.
Invasion of the US. He's already doing it and US now braces for more. Think Cyber security.
Invading a NATO Country: Uncle Joe is a politician, Putin's an Intelligence man. Two different thinking dynamics. Putin knows the smell of blood. Back in 2014 when the US president was preoccupied with releasing terrorist, exchanging 5 terrorist to one traitor, bending over to kiss royal hands or dividing the country, Putin Invaded Crimea. Who was the president then? Yeah him with Biden as VP. Like another poster said, the Orange Man or whatever you want to call him kept Putin at bay. Putin didn't change his stripes but knew the response will be different then. Now he smelled blood again and took the opportunity. Let me introduce an article by Politico nonetheless. A left leaning outlet. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/02/24/putin-was-playing-biden-all-along-00011555. Note there's a comment about China too as I posted in one of my previous posts.Thanks for reminding us how much weakness Putin saw in Trump when Putin conducted "the most successful cyber infiltration of USA Government and corporate institutions in history" on his watch.
Trump administration officially says huge hack was likely Russian espionage
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1252882
The Trump administration issued an official announcement Tuesday saying Russian agents carried out what may have been the most successful cyber infiltration of U.S. government and corporate institutions in history.Might as well add the weakness Putin saw in GW Bush when he invaded Georgia on his watch.
And the weakness Saddam Hussein saw in Bush1 when he invaded Kuwait on his watch.
Oh, how about the weakness the Hezbollah saw in Reagan when they bombed the USA barracks in Beirut on his watch? Boy, they really got that one right. Nobody saw a USA Commander in Chief turn tail and run faster from the fight before or since. Anti American Jihadists certainly learned a lesson about the value of attacking Americans with bombs to get their way after that one.
Ho Chi Minh saw weakness in Eisenhower when he conducted "the peoples war" on South Vietnam and invaded Laos on his watch.
Yeah, I guess Germany saw weakness in FDR when they invaded Poland on his watch. Same with the Japanese when they bombed Pearl Harbor.
Any point in going on with this line of non reasoning?
Ok, at least one more for good measure; how weak must the South have seen Lincoln in 1860? Wow.
LOL. Trump bragged about how that wouldn't have happened on his watch too! Of course there would have been no Civil War on his watch. He would have signed an unconditional surrender on Jefferson Davis' timeline and terms like he did with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Ukraine has never had and does not currently have a nuclear weapons development plan. What they did do, however, was trade away their Russian-developed nukes for a bunch of worthless paper guarantees.You are having a reading comprehension problem. There is no discussion regarding 1993, nuclear development program, or whatever fantasies are flitting around in your head. The issue is now. Former comedian, now President of Ukraine courtesy and inheritor of the Maidan uprising Zelensky declared that Ukraine ought to have some nuclear weapons. How would you suppose the Russians would react to that?
Worthless paper guarantees department, reality version: NATO not one inch to the East!

A huge chunk of GOP (15% actually) view Putin favorably. So, how about you stop talking for all Americans, huh?

But I'm glad, you've finally spoken. So far we've got a 1-1 draw.
Come on trumpers, don't be shy. Make your feelings known.
Point out failings of Senile POTUS and partisans who can only understand things in the most simplistic concepts assume you are not one of them and attack with name calling. The reality is that neither Senile POTUS or The Accidental POTUS is running American foreign policy on behalf of the American People. So what if Germans get fueled from Russia? Instead of shipping American liquified natural gas across an ocean, it can stay on the domestic market where it can lessen our fuel costs.
What are the people who run foreign policy for the current Senile POTUS really trying to accomplish? War is diplomacy by other means. What are the premises of US foreign policy? Let's let The Only Economist Who Matters, the legend himself, Dr. Michael Hudson explain it for us:

Worthless paper guarantees department, reality version: NATO not one inch to the East!Saying that Ukraine ought to have nuclear weapons doesn't mean he actually has them. Just like your boy trump saying that Google was working on a testing website didn't mean that Google was actually doing that.
To have enacted sanctions "weeks ago" before Putin made a move would have been falling right into Putin's obvious trap and fueled his publicly proclaimed lamebrain, fabricated reasons for invading Ukraine:
"Waa waaaa everybody is so mean to poor widdle me Putin! Look! Now that bad ol' Biden is imposing sanctions for doing nothing! Enemies, enemies everywhere. Got to invade Ukraine now to strengthen our position against Russia's enemies always picking on me"!
You haven't been paying attention. Thank god, Biden and his team have been.
In fact, everything Biden and our intel predicted Putin would do, they got it right, including his repeated false flag, made up attacks on him that forced him to pull this shit.
To have punished him for doing something. Before he did it would have been the only fairly genuine claim that "those bad ol' putty tats started it" on the world stage.
Dumb, dumb, dumb idea.But the fascists in the crowd are too dim-witted to understand. They believe that is OK to punish their kids before they've actually done something wrong. Just like they believe that killing Black people is OK because they are eventually going to screw up. Just like, oh hell, there are just too many analogies and I'm tired of typing.
Please see the picture. It is the real reason why Putin didn't invade when the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy was president.
"Signed and then didn't follow thru on the Minsk Agreement."

Surely you've kept up with his work and seen this one from 2015: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4.
I heard from a commentator on the above-referenced show the real and true reason for why Putin felt emboldened to act at this time. It's because democracy in the United States is as weak as its ever been. And whose fault is that? Hmmm? Anybody remember who inspired January 6th? Think it's that same guy on his knees in front of Putin.
You think wrong.

Let's go Brandon!He won't open up drilling because that is the intelligent thing to do. Expanding drilling in USA kills Russia. Lowers oil prices. Reduces inflation. Biden is to stupid to actually do something that helps Americans.
But the fascists in the crowd are too dim-witted to understand. They believe that is OK to punish their kids before they've actually done something wrong. Just like they believe that killing Black people is OK because they are eventually going to screw up. Just like, oh hell, there are just too many analogies and I'm tired of typing.Putin had been moving troops near the Ukraine border for weeks before the invasion. If tough sanctions would have happened when a Putin started moving his military into the region it might have been different. Biden stupidity thought if he threatened sanctions Putin would stop. Putin just laughed him off as a senile old man.
It appears forward looking USA stock market investors with real money on the line and not just blathering political gamesmanship at stake have not yet noticed any "senility" in Biden's economic or national security stewardship or "weakness" in him or his economy going forward.
They are not yet even showing signs of being particularly concerned about the state of today's historic global supply chain destruction inflation challenges that Biden inherited from Trump or the ones in energy triggered by Trump's and the Republican Party's much preferred "leader of the free world" Vladimir Putin.

"since late 2020".
They mean after Biden defeated Trump in a landslide. Hehe. But I digress.
We've seen gains in the USA stock market each day since Putin's War To Strengthen NATO began, snatching the S&P 500 Index back into mere sell-off territory at 9% below it's all time record high close on Biden's watch after tickling down around the edges of Correction territory for 2-3 days so far this year.
BTW, I hate to further alarm the inflation hysterics out there, but do you know what people usually do with the money they take out of the market during post all time record high sell-offs?
Yep. Buy stuff. Expand the economy.
Sorry.

Now that said, the question must be asked: on who's watch did this travesty take place? Answer, Brandon.

A deal that brought in billions for the oligarchs and made Western Europe energy dependent on Putin's Russia. Answer, Brandon.Firstly Keystone was a Canadian project to ship oil to the US to be exported. This oil is being transported by rail currently. Keystone has not impacted the oil supply as it still would not have been completed now. So Keystone has no impact and never had any impact on US oil independence as the oil has always been available.
Second the reason for the fall in oil production is that during the great Trump pandemic the oil price collapsed. The industry had borrowed huge amounts of money to achieve the rapidly expanded oil production initiated by Obama. Many financiers went broke, many oil and gas producers went broke so now noone is leaping to invest huge amounts of money in developing production that for years delivered low then negative returns. Strange that the free market republicans only care about the free market when its convenient.
Thirdly Europe has depended on Russian gas for decades. The big difference was Nordstream which was built to bypass Ukraine. How you can blame Biden for Europes dependence on Russian gas is unfathomable. There is no logic or evidence supporting that.
. So basically, the diabolical America made gullible Putin invade Ukraine so that Germany had an excuse to shut down Nord 2.Simple reading comprehension is clearly beyond you, so easy does it now, stick to your script:

Putin had been moving troops near the Ukraine border for weeks before the invasion. If tough sanctions would have happened when a Putin started moving his military into the region it might have been different. Biden stupidity thought if he threatened sanctions Putin would stop. Putin just laughed him off as a senile old man.So what you said was "Let's punish Putin (with sanctions) before he actually did anything illegal."
Please tell me how that is different from punishing your kids before they do something wrong? "Johnny, I know that if you take my car tonight, you're going to speed so I'm not going to let you use the car."
Since you knew what Putin was going to do before he did it, please tell me what tonight's Powerball numbers will be. That way I can be sure of buying a winning ticket.
Good grief. TDS much. The impeachments were really BS by the democrats. And from the looks of it the whole Russian dossie seems to be a plot by Hillary and the democrats.

Firstly Keystone was a Canadian project to ship oil to the US to be exported. This oil is being transported by rail currently. Keystone has not impacted the oil supply as it still would not have been completed now. So Keystone has no impact and never had any impact on US oil independence as the oil has always been available.

Thirdly Europe has depended on Russian gas for decades. The big difference was Nordstream which was built to bypass Ukraine. How you can blame Biden for Europes dependence on Russian gas is unfathomable. There is no logic or evidence supporting that.Please stop getting your data from fantasyland. That is a typical socialist fake post. All the pipe and supplies were on the ground and construction had started on the pipeline when Biden took office. It would be delivering oil today. Biden cancelled pipeline and increased oil from Russia. Oil companies were not going broke in Trump presidency when prices are stable. Oil is being transported by Warren Buffett rail at a high price but there is no way that rail can handle 800,000 barrels a day that is needed in USA refineries.
Biden cancelled drilling permits on all federal land and offshore and put numerous stupid regulations on oil drilling to slow USA exploration and production which he succeeded in doing by 1.2 million barrels a day. We were energy self sufficient under Trump and now we depend on Russia, OPEC and Saudi for oil. These 3 are getting rich by Biden. Biden is financing Russia to invade Ukraine. Ukraine children lives are on Biden failures now. People who voted for Biden need to know they have blood on their hands.
Read that drivel. So basically, the diabolical America made gullible Putin invade Ukraine so that Germany had an excuse to shut down Nord 2. Oh my!
Legend indeed. Where do the crackpots find those clowns?

Are you the only guy in USA that isn't smart enough to know that on day one of Biden presidency he vowed to reduce oil and gas production in USA in sake of climate? Cancelling pipelines, cancelling new drilling on federal lands, cancelling offshore drilling and putting stupid excessive regulations on oil companies killed exploration in USA. You can fabricate all the lies in the world but it doesn't change the fact that Biden made USA reliant again on foreign oil. Him begging Russia and OPEC to produce more only showed his desperation so they raised prices. Oil doubled in price and Russia was the biggest benefactor. Yes Biden is responsible for funding Russia invasion of Ukraine.
It appears forward looking USA stock market investors with real money on the line and not just blathering political gamesmanship at stake have not yet noticed any "senility" in Biden's economic or national security stewardship or "weakness" in him or his economy going forward.

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/24/stock-market-futures-open-to-close-news.html?__source=androidappshare.Sorry you are wrong again. Dow is down 6.5% this year. Analysts are worried about inflation and Biden policies. Inflation can only get worse with Biden policies. Market is in a holding pattern and staying relatively stable because indications are that Republicans will take back the House and Senate this fall. If not watch for the biggest crash ever possibly. Analysts are not always correct but they usually are pretty close.
I heard from a commentator on the above-referenced show the real and true reason for why Putin felt emboldened to act at this time.

He won't open up drilling because that is the intelligent thing to do. Expanding drilling in USA kills Russia. Lowers oil prices. Reduces inflation. Biden is to stupid to actually do something that helps Americans.Please cite a source, any source, that if Biden opened up drilling everywhere on day 1 of his Presidency that those wells would be producing today. https://energyhq.com/2017/08/from-inception-through-completion-the-life-cycle-of-a-well/ But sure, blame Biden.
I realize that you are just parroting FUX "News" but only about 22% of oil production comes from federal land. The rest comes from private and state land. So Biden didn't do anything to affect current production. But the talking heads at FUX "News" didn't tell you that, did they? But sure, blame Biden.
And besides, Biden doesn't control what private companies do. Unless, of course, you think he should force private companies to start drilling. The results of which, BTW, wouldn't be felt for several years. But sure, blame Biden.
And, of course, there is the "but it would be so easy to just ship American oil and gas to Europe" canard.

Simple reading comprehension is clearly beyond youWhy is that? I didn't quote Michael Hudson, you did.
The only way left for U.S. diplomats to block European purchases is to goad Russia into a military response and then claim that avenging this response outweighs any purely national economic interest.Do you disagree with Mr. Hudson? Am I somehow misinterpreting what he means?

Why is that? I didn't quote Michael Hudson, you did.
Do you disagree with Mr. Hudson? Am I somehow misinterpreting what he means?Consider the possibility: the Biden State Department wanted Russia to invade Ukraine. Then, what? Well, instability on rival Russia's border for starters, a net plus. And afterwards, it could even get better: Ukrania as a failed State. The first act hasn't closed and the Banderastan government (courtesy of Uncle Shmuel, err Sam) is already handing out weaponry to any male between the ages of 18 to 60 who wants one, a prelude to armed criminal gangs in control of the country? Where have we seen that before? Libya? ISIS, Iraq? Yes, it sounds utterly cynical. But if US foreign policy has nothing positive left to offer, why wouldn't they do a strategy like this? And, note the reaction in the financial markets: Wall St. Appears to be on to the game. The question is how far the US will go to keep its vassals in line? Look closely as you'll see the signals. Biden says no US troops: Ukraine is being totally used, hung out to dry, just like Georgia in 2008. Same playbook. As for the NATO vassals? Professor Hudson has them pegged. The US wins no matter how this turns out. But, it does ratchet up the stakes the next time they try the same strategy. If you want to keep playing checkers, that's understandable. This isn't 5-the chess or conspiracy. This has been the US strategy in plane sight now for a number of years.

Like you said, there are thousands of unused permits they can use but no. They're just sitting on them waiting till the prices go even higher.
So far, U.S. oil companies have been reluctant to pump more, preferring to steer record cash flows back to investors instead of spending it on new drilling that could flood the world with cheap crude but also stoke another boom-and-bust cycle.
That could change with oil prices hovering around $100 a barrel, said Kevin Book, managing director of research firm ClearView Energy Partners. Oil and gas producers buy leases as options, not obligations, Book said. As we close in on $100 a barrel it is a safe bet that those leases are going to get used.
Oil and gas permitting on private land is not affected, and Interior regulators were still reviewing applications for permits to drill on Tuesday, said an agency representative who asked for anonymity to discuss the activity. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-02-22/biden-halts-oil-permits-just-as-gasoline-prices-surge-on-ukraine
Maybe, trumpers should direct their false outrage at oil producers who are taking their sweet time at this time of the unprecedented crisis. And maybe Biden should threaten to revoke these permits (although I don't know about the legalities here) from greedy bastards sitting on their hands while America is hurting at the pump.

"The invasion of Ukraine is a humiliating defeat for President Joe Biden. He is the supposed leader of the free world. He staked his country's reputation, billions of dollars, and the full force of the USA Government on preventing Vladimir Putin from invading Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine anyway, and we are all worse off for it. The 2nd Cold War has begun with a hostile, unlawful invasion of a peaceful, democratic country.
But it's not the first time Joe Biden has done something like this. Less than six months ago, Biden oversaw an almost indescribably chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan. He left American citizens behind. He armed the Taliban with advanced weapons systems on the way out. It could not have been worse disaster."
So Biden has two historic foreign policy debacles in under a year not to mention an open border with Mexico, a surge in violence across all American cities, and record high rate of inflation not seen since 1982. Is there a precedent for this level of failure in an American Presidency?
Well yes, there have been 3 weak, catastrophic presidents that have led the US to disaster. "The first was James Buchanan who did nothing in his term in office to stop the South from seceding from the Union. He was a terrible President. Lincoln came into office after him and faced Armageddon, the Civil War, because Buchanan had done nothing to stop the South from gathering strength during Buchanan's term in office. The second was Herbert Hoover who came into office just before the Great Depression hit the country like a tsunami 6 months into his term. But Hoover did nothing for 3. 5 years to help the American people who were literally starving. The country suffered tremendously for 3 years and it was all left to FDR to do something to clean up Hoover's mess once he, FDR, came into office. Sadly nothing really worked until the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor which ended the Great Depression in 1941."
But now we have the Wizard of OZ: President Joe Biden, the third worst President of all time. This mentally deficient, front man for the Woke Marxist movement does not have a clue about what to do and we are stuck with him and his administration for 3 more years! What's on the Biden agenda? Defeating Putin or at least making it excruciatingly painful for Putin to continue? Doubtful. Ending inflation? Don't make me laugh. Biden does not have a clue as to the root causes of inflation, so inflation will only become more painful during his remaining time in office. How about standing by and doing nothing as the Chinese Communists take over Taiwan, or the USA enters a recession, or Iran tests a nuclear weapon? After witnessing Biden's catastrophic first 13 months in office, these horrible events all seem possible IE doable now. Way to go Joe! You the man.
Please stop getting your data from fantasyland. That is a typical socialist fake post. All the pipe and supplies were on the ground and construction had started on the pipeline when Biden took office. It would be delivering oil today. Biden cancelled pipeline and increased oil from Russia. Oil companies were not going broke in Trump presidency when prices are stable. Oil is being transported by Warren Buffett rail at a high price but there is no way that rail can handle 800,000 barrels a day that is needed in USA refineries.
Biden cancelled drilling permits on all federal land and offshore and put numerous stupid regulations on oil drilling to slow USA exploration and production which he succeeded in doing by 1.2 million barrels a day. We were energy self sufficient under Trump and now we depend on Russia, OPEC and Saudi for oil. These 3 are getting rich by Biden. Biden is financing Russia to invade Ukraine. Ukraine children lives are on Biden failures now. People who voted for Biden need to know they have blood on their hands.The Keystone XL pipeline was 8% completed when it was cancelled. I don't care if all the pipe and supplies where on the ground. The. Pipeline. Was. 8%. Complete. What part of 8% do you not understand? Just because FUX "News" or Tucker "Nobody in their right mind should believe anything I say" Carlson says otherwise doesn't make it true. I'll bet you think that if 1 woman can have a baby in 9 months that if you gave the job to 9 women, they could have a baby in a month.
The fact that Biden delayed drilling permits on the 22% of land that drilling occurs on doesn't mean squat. The simple facts are that oil companies are not drilling because they don't want to get caught with their pants down. Again.

There are not thousands of permits waiting to be drilled. Our customers in Wyoming, Colorado and Texas are fighting to try to get enough wells permitted to keep the existing during going. Maybe you could send some of these thousand permits that you have. At $100 oil price oil companies are trying everything to get more permits and produce more oil. Texas is begging Biden to come to them instead of OPEC for oil. Trump opened the flood gates for oil companies to drill and removed regulations so that they could make money at $50 oil. Biden killed all that. Only one person to blame and it is Biden not oil companies so stop fabricating lies.

Fake news and fake sources don't make it true. Stopping drilling on the 22% federal lands plus the offshore drilling made oil production go down by over 12%. Created shortages. Stopped exploration. Putting more regulations on oil companies made getting drilling permits on private land more difficult and more expensive. Killing pipelines also made delivery more difficult so no increase from Canada could pick up the slack. We had to go and buy more oil from OPEC, Russia and yes Iran. Much better than cheaper oil from Canada.
Creating a shortage of any commodity raises prices. Killing USA production gives Russia and OPEC room to raise prices dramatically. Biden screwed up and we are paying for it. Yes Biden is to blame. Like it or not. The world knows it. Why don't you?

Thanks for reminding us how much weakness Putin saw in Trump when Putin conducted "the most successful cyber infiltration of USA Government and corporate institutions in history" on his watch.
Trump administration officially says huge hack was likely Russian espionage
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1252882
Might as well add the weakness Putin saw in GW Bush when he invaded Georgia on his watch.
And the weakness Saddam Hussein saw in Bush1 when he invaded Kuwait on his watch.
Oh, how about the weakness the Hezbollah saw in Reagan when they bombed the USA barracks in Beirut on his watch? Boy, they really got that one right. Nobody saw a USA Commander in Chief turn tail and run faster from the fight before or since. Anti American Jihadists certainly learned a lesson about the value of attacking Americans with bombs to get their way after that one.
Ho Chi Minh saw weakness in Eisenhower when he conducted "the peoples war" on South Vietnam and invaded Laos on his watch..This is huge touche, and demonstrates the mindset one develops when spoon fed by sources like Faux News. The aim there is to tear down Dems and promote Repubs, not provide news reporting. The same phenomenon is behind why most Russians approve of the invasion of Ukraine. They are only listening to state controlled media.

https://youtu.be/LyQ8GyjuTWoOh, no doubt about it. If Trump had convinced enough Repub state secretaries to "find" more votes for him to overturn his 2020 election landslide defeat against Biden, by now Putin and his delegation would have strolled right into the White House to take a seat in the Oval Office at Trump's urging while Trump polished Putin's knob in gratitude for freeing up more tee time for him at his failed resorts.
Putin would not have needed to wimp out by invading a non NATO member neighboring country he knew was not going to get direct military support from USA / Biden. He could have carried out his mission to weaken, attack and overthrow democracies around the world from Washington DC, the same as Trump did.
To the delight of virtually every Repub voter, pol and FUX News Channel host.
Wrong. Are you the only guy in USA that isn't smart enough to know that on day one of Biden presidency he vowed to reduce oil and gas production in USA in sake of climate? Cancelling pipelines, cancelling new drilling on federal lands, cancelling offshore drilling and putting stupid excessive regulations on oil companies killed exploration in USA. You can fabricate all the lies in the world but it doesn't change the fact that Biden made USA reliant again on foreign oil. Him begging Russia and OPEC to produce more only showed his desperation so they raised prices. Oil doubled in price and Russia was the biggest benefactor. Yes Biden is responsible for funding Russia invasion of Ukraine.LOL. Wrong? All of it is correct just very inconvenient to your nonsense. The reality is that that for the money spent on military operations over the last 30 years in the Middle east alone would have paid to give every household in the country a Tesla model 3. Every car company is coming out with electric cars. In 20 years the majority of the road fleet could be converted and the solar and wind installed to run it. No need for Canadian oil, no need to care about Russia, Saudi, Iran, Iraq, Venezuela and all the other oil fueled dictatorships.

New Data: Bidens First Year Drilling Permitting Stomps Trumps By 34%
Thousands of Permits OKd Despite Presidents Authority to End Drilling by 2035
WASHINGTON New federal data shows the Biden administration approved 3,557 permits for oil and gas drilling on public lands in its first year, far outpacing the Trump administrations first-year total of 2,658.
Nearly 2,000 of the drilling permits were approved on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Managements New Mexico office, followed by 843 in Wyoming, 285 in Montana and North Dakota, and 191 in Utah. In California, the Biden administration approved 187 permits more than twice the 71 drilling permits Trump approved in that state in his first year.https://biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press-releases/new-data-biden-slays-trumps-first-year-drilling-permitting-by-34-2022-01-21/#text=Washington%E2%80%94%20 New%20 federal%20 data%20 shows, first%2 Dyear%20 total%20 of%202%2 C658.

Despite oil industry howling, companies are awash in public lands drilling permits. New data shows oil companies have nearly 10,000 approved, but unused, permits.
When the Biden administration enacted a temporary pause on new oil and gas leases on public lands, the oil industry said the sky was falling, predicting massive job losses and production cuts. In the meantime, drill rig counts have increased, stock prices have risen, and major oil companies flush with cash have begun taking steps for their shareholders to reap the benefits. Now, new data from the Bureau of Land Management shows that, despite industry fear mongering, oil companies have nearly 10,000 approved, but unused public lands drilling permits, an all-time high in recent memory.

Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine anyway, and we are all worse off for it. The 2nd Cold War has begun with a hostile, unlawful invasion of a peaceful, democratic country.
But it's not the first time Joe Biden has done something like this. Less than six months ago, Biden oversaw an almost indescribably chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan. He left American citizens behind. He armed the Taliban with advanced weapons systems on the way out. It could not have been worse disaster."
So Biden has two historic foreign policy debacles in under a year not to mention an open border with Mexico, a surge in violence across all American cities, and record high rate of inflation not seen since 1982. Is there a precedent for this level of failure in an American Presidency?
Well yes, there have been 3 weak, catastrophic presidents that have led the US to disaster. "The first was James Buchanan who did nothing in his term in office to stop the South from seceding from the Union. He was a terrible President. Lincoln came into office after him and faced Armageddon, the Civil War, because Buchanan had done nothing to stop the South from gathering strength during Buchanan's term in office. The second was Herbert Hoover who came into office just before the Great Depression hit the country like a tsunami 6 months into his term. But Hoover did nothing for 3. 5 years to help the American people who were literally starving. The country suffered tremendously for 3 years and it was all left to FDR to do something to clean up Hoover's mess once he, FDR, came into office. Sadly nothing really worked until the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor which ended the Great Depression in 1941."
But now we have the Wizard of OZ: President Joe Biden, the third worst President of all time. This mentally deficient, front man for the Woke Marxist movement does not have a clue about what to do and we are stuck with him and his administration for 3 more years! What's on the Biden agenda? Defeating Putin or at least making it excruciatingly painful for Putin to continue? Doubtful. Ending inflation? Don't make me laugh. Biden does not have a clue as to the root causes of inflation, so inflation will only become more painful during his remaining time in office. How about standing by and doing nothing as the Chinese Communists take over Taiwan, or the USA enters a recession, or Iran tests a nuclear weapon? After witnessing Biden's catastrophic first 13 months in office, these horrible events all seem possible IE doable now. Way to go Joe! You the man.Jesus Christ, now it's Biden's fault that Russia has a mad tsar. The first war since the WW2 is raging in Europe, and all they can think about is "owning the dems". Disgusting!

Good grief. TDS much. The impeachments were really BS by the democrats. And from the looks of it the whole Russian dossie seems to be a plot by Hillary and the democrats. But logic and sense doh work with people who have TDS.Yeah, I think you are good for remembering that. Let's go back to 2014 and this phone call: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957.
That phone call showed an enormous amount of meddling in Ukraine not just by the USA but by a Democratic administration. That phone call mentions Biden. A year or so later, Biden goes to Ukraine and infamously says the the prosecutor investigating his son has to be fired or he will hold up one billion dollars of foreign aid to Ukraine. The prosecutor is fired. The excuse used, and this was hilarious, is that said the is corrupt.
Remember what the impeachment was about. Trump talking to the Ukraine president and asking that Hunter Biden be investigated. That was allegedly asking a foreign power to interfere in our election.
So I dug down deep into Ukraine and how it is governed. It is not a "democracy". It is a puppet state not of the USA but of the Democratic party. Soros backed NGO bureaucrats make most of the heavy decisions in the country. Time after time in the Ukraine impeachment, it seemed like every American working in Ukraine was a Democrat. So I look at Ukraine not as a USA puppet but a Democratic one. How many democracies have a leader from another country come in and lecture that his dirty son not be investigated and gets the the investigating him fired?
Trump leaves office, and I have a buddy in the shipping business laugh and tell me to come down and check his docks. The day Biden got into office, he has been buying and shipping things like crazy all over the world. I look at the labels and they are going to all the world's hot spots. He laughs and says, "Hey, man this is humanitarian aid. " It is obvious that is not the case. Biden was planning to go to war since day one. Of course, Putin can monitor the supplies Ukraine would need for war.
Usually people rally to a president in times of war, but that is not happening now. Republican politicians are not being critical of Biden, but the people are a different story, and polls have not changed a lick, and they should not. The Democrats have been hooting and hollering about stupid things about Ukraine and Russia for years, and it is like, Why the fuck should we care? You Dems have been lying about those places for years.
I am not going to get excited about Putin destroying Democracy after Democrats pulled the 2020 election shit, the FBI pulled the 2016 election shit, and we had these retarded impeachments. I am helluva lot more concerned about my Democracy than one in Ukraine.
To me, it looks like Putin attacked the Democratic party and the Ukrainian people just happen to be in the way. Was firing a prosecutor in Ukraine the only shit Biden pulled there? My bet is no.
Jesus Christ, now it's Biden's fault that Russia has a mad tsar. The first war since the WW2 is raging in Europe, and all they can think about is "owning the dems". Disgusting!A sizeable portion of these actually admire Putin and have lost interest in democracy, truth be known. One such person has been Cocksucker Carlson, who has been a Putin apologist for ages even up to the troop build ups on the Ukrainian border. Post invasion though he's been forced to pivot to only Biden scapegoating. He is a disgusting excuse for an American.

He's breaking records LOL.
Sounds like an ideal Golfinho source. LOL.Have you found something detailing the military situation? Be so thoughtful as to share. As for thesaker, which has you so scared of propaganda, here it is:
"It appears that the operational cauldron which will entrap the entire Ukie force in the Donbass is in the process of being finalized. According to recent news, only about 100 km separate the northern pincer from the southern one, and since Russian MRLS can reach much further, this means that the Ukie forces are already blocked by fire (meaning that while they still can break through, they will do that under constant Russian fire) and that the encirclement will be completed if not today, then by tomorrow. Take a look at this map:
http://thesaker.is/quick-interlude-with-a-few-quick-comments/
What you see here is, in red, the advance of the Russian pincers from the north and the south. The thick black line is the section of the front through which the Ukies can still run, but it is already under fire from both the north and the south. As soon as the Russian force meets somewhere along that black line, then the operational cauldron will be shut. The yellow line indicate the limits of that operational cauldron which will have about 10-12 Ukrainian brigades entirely cut off and surrounded.
By the way, the Nazi forces in Mariupol are also surrounded, but they decided to fight to their last breath, which would be fine by me if there was not a huge amount of civilians, including civilians herded into bunkers which, in reality, offer them no protection. The Russians could use a large FAE bomb to destroy the Nazis defenses in one strike, but the cost in human lives would be huge. It is possible that the Russians will have to liberate Mariupol the hard way: by sending in special urban assault teams, like what they did in Grozny during the 2nd Chechen war. If so, that will mean that the Russian command has decided to accept many more Russian casualties as a price to pay to save as many civilians as possible. What a horrible decision to have to make.
As for Kiev, the Russians are concentrating forces all around the city, but are not moving in yet, to my great relief.
Finally, Kharkov is being cleaned up by mopping up operations. Once that city is secure, there are rumors that some kind of government will be proclaimed there. Let's wait and see."
And there you have it: big, bad Russian propaganda. LOL.
Oh, no doubt about it. If Trump had convinced enough Repub state secretaries to "find" more votes for him to overturn his 2020 election landslide defeat against Biden, by now Putin and his delegation would have strolled right into the White House to take a seat in the Oval Office at Trump's urging while Trump polished Putin's knob in gratitude for freeing up more tee time for him at his failed resorts.
Putin would not have needed to wimp out by invading a non NATO member neighboring country he knew was not going to get direct military support from USA / Biden. He could have carried out his mission to weaken, attack and overthrow democracies around the world from Washington DC, the same as Trump did.

"Moscow (Reuters) - A Ukrainian company in charge of building and maintaining roads said it was removing all road signs that could be used by invading Russian forces to find their way around the country.
"The enemy has poor communications, they cannot navigate the terrain," the company Ukravtodor said in a Facebook update late on Friday. "Let us help them get straight to hell. "
It posted an edited photo of a standard road sign in which directions to nearby cities have been replaced with profanities that could be translated as "Go fuck yourself", "Go fuck yourself again" and "Go fuck yourself back in Russia".

Seriously, I'm just trying to understand. Do you love all world tyrants who hate America?It's easy to understand. Saker is an unapologetically pro-Russian blog. No one needs to "tell you that" when they themselves tell you that. Yes they also incorporate some unsubstantiated, tired global conspiracy theories with anti-Jew angles which are Golfinho's favorite flavor. So given the present world circumstances it makes for a nice change of the channel, relief from the awful cardigan sweater, beady eyes, and pointy nose of the bigot E. Michael Jones (look him up), but all are barking up the same tree.
Saker though is essentially Russian state media with some other twists added to the stew to attract pseudo-intellectuals like Golfinho. But in the end he is giving comfort to our enemies in a time of war. Don't waste much time with him as he is of little significance. Long Live Ukraine.

He's breaking records LOL.No, actually Trump's ratings were lower at this point in his presidency, even though he was still coasting on far, far, far better economic conditions he inherited from the Obama-Biden economy and had not yet produced the horrific state of the union he threw in Biden's lap:
"How Popular Is Joe Biden?
FiveThirtyEight" https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/biden-approval-rating/.
Biden's ratings now are also within a normal +/-MoE of Reagan's at this point.
Well, if Repubs are so certain that these polls are predicting a Red Tsunami in November and another MAGA Trump so-called presidency in 2024, they can just drop all of their nationwide efforts to rig the elections by suppressing likely Dem votes and only collect and count likely Repub ballots, right?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wHpuGx9gfkThe second link didn't work for me. But if the dingbat fake news anchor in the first link tilting her head like a confused basset hound and rolling her eyes over every provably accurate statement Biden made in that interview had the data to refute what he was saying, why didn't she stop looking and sounding like an ignorant numbskull and cite it?
I'll answer that; because she couldn't.
The only thing she got right but still offered no specifics on was that "inflation is at a 40 year high".
Sure enough, inflation was higher during Reagan's second year in office than it is today. She got one right.
But she neglected to mention the Unemployment Rate also started at 8. 6% that year, much higher than the downward trending rate Reagan inherited from Carter a year earlier and skyrocketed into 4 consecutive months higher than 10% by the end of the year! To 10.8%!
Today's Unemployment Rate is 4%. And wages rose faster and higher last year than Reagan's presidency ever saw, certainly not in 1982. Both of which makes the sting of inflation today, lower than it was under Reagan, even less painful than it was under Reagan.
Otherwise, here is some data she neither mentioned nor could she refute except by tilting her empty head and rolling her eyes. Which is apparently enough to convince even more ignorant numbskulls than she is.

No Repub can or ever has matched Biden's economic results. Not even Reagan. And he is in fact "the best" the Repub Party has to point back to over many, many decades. Still not as good as Biden's results though.

Biden Approval Rating Falls to Record Low 37%: Post-ABC Poll (https://www.bloombergquint.com/onweb/biden-approval-rating-falls-to-record-low-37-post-abc-poll).
But but, I'm pretty sure some experts here will still argue that this "damp sock puppet in human form" is better than Trump, even though most Americans seems to be waking up.
Here's another poll that MSM is suppressing:
62 percent of voters say Putin wouldn't have invaded Ukraine if Trump were president: poll (https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/595919-62-percent-of-voters-say-putin-wouldnt-have-invaded-ukraine-if-trump).BTW, the "62%" poll you linked to and were so excited about is another one of those "online, vote as many times as you have email addresses from your mom's basement" polls.
Which are so unreliable and not to be taken seriously, they can't even claim any known +/-Margin of Error.
From your link:
The survey is an online sample drawn from the Harris Panel and weighted to reflect known demographics. As a representative online sample, it does not report a probability confidence interval.Uh. Maybe that's wht MSM aren't exactly doing the same Olympic sized backflips over it that you are.
It's easy to understand. Saker is an unapologetically pro-Russian blog. No one needs to "tell you that" when they themselves tell you that. Yes they also incorporate some unsubstantiated, tired global conspiracy theories with anti-Jew angles which are Golfinho's favorite flavor. So given the present world circumstances it makes for a nice change of the channel, relief from the awful cardigan sweater, beady eyes, and pointy nose of the bigot E. Michael Jones (look him up), but all are barking up the same tree.
Saker though is essentially Russian state media with some other twists added to the stew to attract pseudo-intellectuals like Golfinho. But in the end he is giving comfort to our enemies in a time of war. Don't waste much time with him as he is of little significance. Long Live Ukraine.Oh, I know about Saker. I've just wondered if Putin is the only world tyrant our Golfinho is enamored with, or if he's drooling over others as well. I mean if Blood Orange admitted being in love with Kim, perhaps Golfinho's not far behind either? Like I said, just curious.
And yes, I'm stunned by the good fight the Ukrainians have put up so far. But then I remembered reading how Ukrainian partisans were fighting Stalin for 10 years after the WW2, completely isolated and outgunned, so that probably shouldn't be a surprise.
So Cali Guy:
Do you think when the Bureau of Land Management reports shows oil companies have nearly 10,000 approved, but unused, permits.
That is fake news?
What more reliable source do you have?LOL, the problem with crackpots is twofold.
1. There is no data that would support their idiotic notions.
2. Even if there were, they are astonishingly lazy. Even a simple 5-minute google search makes them dizzy. It's so much easier to just parrot their party lines over and over again ad nauseum.

Hey, what a coincidence!
I just posted a couple of links for something that happened while Biden was president for just one year that didn't happen while Trump was president for four years too!
I'm repeating them here along with some others.
No need to ask anyone in a poll if they "think" these things would have happened under Trump or not. It is 100% certain they didn't:
"President Biden's Economic Performance Has Proved Unbeatable - Bloomberg" https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/ar...ved-unbeatable..
As great as the numbers were at the end of Biden's first year in office, the numbers got even better as more data came in last month to revise them upward.

1. Everything is "fake news" that doesn't come from either the Orange Fruitcake himself or one of the many ultra-stupid winger propaganda sites. Government sources? Fake news. Foreign sources? Fake news. Truth? Fake news? Lies? The truth.
2. All fact-check sites are also "fake news" for the reasons stated above.
3. They have no idea how to think for themselves so, yes, they parrot the party line ad nauseum.
4. Breathing one's own exhaust is considered a good thing.
So, they are forever caught in the 4-instruction-loop above.

Well, well, the people behind Senile POTUS succeeded in starting their war on Russia's border. After Trump managed to keep the lid on it for four years, the Democrat Party warmongers in total recklessness just went right ahead and fcuked everybody.
Bradon's deterrence and fourty+ years of diplomatic know-how worked out well for Ukraine Eh? And he did that all by himself! Stand by! With the impotence of this POTUS China is acting next
We got long black winter ahead of us and it'll last for three more years.
Let's go Brandon!
I have still yet to read a coherent explanation for how a spectacularly stupid move by Putin has anything whatsoever to do with Biden?
"Biden is weak"?
I notice Putin didn't blunder into an invasion of the USA. Why Not?
I also notice Putin didn't bunder into invading a NATO country where "weak" Biden would be bound by Treaty to respond militarily. Why not?
I also notice Putin has just bought himself god knows how many years of the most unified crippling sanctions ever imposed on a needy, pathetically deficient national economy.
Unified or rather Re-unified thanks to "weak" Biden unifying civilized nations like never before after Trump spent 4 years trying to make Putin's dream of a dismantled Western Alliance come true.
And unless Trump or another Repub weasels into the White House to secretly violate those sanctions against Putin as dutiful Putin Puppet Trump did until he was busted by the Dems in Congress and forced to abide by the agreement, Russia is going to be forehead deep in shit until Putin squeals like a stuck pig.Yes, EihTooms nailed it. Four days after the invasion, the ruble collapsed today.

Thanks for clearing that up.
EihTooms.
Yep, this never would have happened While Trump was so-called president.
Putin and Russia have never been so isolated, abandoned and screwed:
Congratulations Eih. You finally told the truth in a post. You are right the Ukraine invasion would not have happened under Trump.
Oh, I know about Saker. I've just wondered if Putin is the only world tyrant our Golfinho is enamored with, or if he's drooling over others as well. I mean if Blood Orange admitted being in love with Kim, perhaps Golfinho's not far behind either? Like I said, just curious.

My point is maybe you need to do a better job to see who were those 'partisans' especially from the point of view of your heritage.

Here is a thesis about the OUN-UPA insurgency that followed the WW2 in Ukraine, the insurgency that was only quashed in the mid-1950's. The thesis, IMHO, is pretty well-rounded and equally well-sourced.
https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADA562947.pdf
As to whether they were "nice people" well, no, they weren't. Then again, nice people didn't last long in that meat-chopper AKA WW2. Every party to that war committed its own share of atrocities. And OUN-UPA was fighting against everybody: the Nazis, the Red Army, as well as the Poles. That, however, is beside the point. My point was that even Stalin who had an unquestionable and unlimited mandate to use as much cannon fodder as he dimmed fit, had to spend 10 years to put them down. Well, Putin isn't Stalin. He has no idea the kind of pain he's bought himself.
LOL I'm sure you know that those articles that you referred to are also opinion pieces by MSM. Sad is that few people like yourself are still supporting this "damp sock puppet in human form", rest with even minimal brain moved on.Those articles include and refer to the actual, verifiable data in order to make their point.
For example, they don't say, "I 'think' the Unemployment Rate declined to 4% from the double digits and climbing Biden inherited from Trump at record speed" or "I 'think' Biden passed a $1.2 Trillion bipartisan long overdue Infrastructure legislation that Trump never even got $1 for over 4 deadbeat Do Nothing years" or "I 'think' hospitalizations and deaths from Trump's Pandemic Virus are declining dramatically now" or anything like that.
The data they cite are real, not just their opinion.

Trump Tries To Take Credit For NATO After Nearly Destroying It.
Only in the mind of a feeble and a narcissist Trump, could a man be capable of lying so much https://crooksandliars.com/2022/02/trump-nato-credit.
I thought Putin was supposed to be "smart, brilliant, a genius". Then it turned out he fell for the same self-glorifying obvious lies and blather from Trump, the most pathetically obvious con man in history, that only the dumbest people in America fell for.
Can't you just hear it? LOL.
"Putie, my Love, I am the greatest salesman in the world. Only I can fix this for you. Leave it to me and by the end of my first Four Year Trump National Doral Golf Tournament I will have NATO and the Western Alliance in such tatters only a true negotiation and foreign policy genius and superstar pro-democracy leader could reunite it. And there's no chance of that happening because everyone in America is "dumb" except me.
Believe me! Russia will be the shining light on the hill for generations and the world will rally to you for your virility and strength when you take over Ukraine after I've paved the way for you with my always successful smooth talk, just as I love that about you with every thrust when you bend me over your desk".
Too bad Trump demanded there be no notes or recordings made and kept of that conversation so everyone could hear Trump's whiny, high pitched, old lady voice saying those actual words.
Oh, I know about Saker. I've just wondered if Putin is the only world tyrant our Golfinho is enamored with, or if he's drooling over others as well. I mean if Blood Orange admitted being in love with Kim, perhaps Golfinho's not far behind either? Like I said, just curious. Right but you'll never get an honest answer, but only deflections and evasions. Bottom line is Putin has painted himself in a corner. Even if he takes Ukraine he won't hold it. For one he lacks the solider to Ukrainian ratio to occupy the country at only 3. 9 to 1000. Insurgencies will be backed by NATO and successful.
Secondly virtually the whole world is repulsed by him and that fallout will only grow. He brags about nukes but we have them also in spades, so that at best is a standoff for him. He's a twerpy little egocentric coward who his people would do well to remove without delay. And people who dislike the US need to find a new hero. That's down the toilet as well.
Since you request links from others, will you supply us with links with respect to "Ukrainian partisans were fighting Stalin for 10 years after the WW2"? My point is maybe you need to do a better job to see who were those 'partisans' especially from the point of view of your heritage.Links or sourcing typically aren't required for common knowledge information, especially in matters of history. Yet your request for sourcing in that particular case was reasonable and I'm glad he provided it. It however isn't the same as asking for proof of the right wingnut blog horseshit posted by Cali Guy / Canada and the like, apples and oranges.

ROFL.
Yes, EihTooms nailed it. Four days after the invasion, the ruble collapsed today.Let's repeat this more clearly, so you will understand, perhaps. Getting the Russians to invade was the move right out of the Brezeznski playbook, you remember: arming the mujahadim so the Soviets invade Afghanistan, 1979. So, again the Russians take the bait. We'd contend this is a win-win for the USA, that is so long as the people running the show behind Senile POTUS are content to sit back, rub their hands together in excitement over slavs killing slavs, and don't get carried away and do something stupid, in which case everyone is fcuked.
Many of the dim-witted supporters of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy will undoubtedly watch the SOTU.
The following is a guide telling them how to watch it: https://news.yahoo.com/gop-guide-watching-biden-state-100105263.html.
Since the article comes from USA Today, I suspect that they will call it "fake news" without ever having read it. However, if it is the "fake news" that they say it is, then it is all a lie and they'll do none of the things contained in the article. Like:
1. Make sure you boo when Biden is introduced.
2. You should also boo when Biden gets behind the podium, when he opens his mouth and any time air moves past his vocal cords making vibrations that produce sound. The only time you should not boo is if he falls down or announces he is immediately resigning and handing the presidency back to Trump.
3. Clapping is strictly prohibited, except in the instance of the aforementioned falling or resigning.
4. Don't look at Pelosi! House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will be seated behind Biden during the address. It is crucial you avoid looking at her, as there have been reliable reports on the internet that she will be blinking subliminal lessons on critical race theory throughout the president's speech.
5. Forget all the specifics of events that occurred between Jan. 20,2017, and Jan. 20,2021, and assume everything in that span of time was perfect and magical. Next, remind yourself that all events from Jan. 21,2021, to the present day have been earth-scorchingly horrible, your kids are now educated by communists, freedom of speech has been outlawed, librarians are the enemy and you can no longer go to church because Vice President Kamala Harris killed God by existing.
6. Don't be fooled by positive facts.
7. Prior to the broadcast, make sure you have an anti-wokeness white-noise player near your television to filter out inclusive language you might find offensive.
If you looked at the links in my posts you'd have seen that are diverse and that include politico and wapo.

Even the biased MSM can't suppress the stupidity anymore. I'm not even putting the more factual references from real unbiased journalists.
On the eve of his State of the Union address, amid an international crisis, President Joe Biden has sunk to his worst approval numbers yet.
A new Washington Post / ABC poll found just 37 percent of adults approve of Biden's job performance.

https://www.nbcnews.com/now/video/president-biden-s-approval-rating-sinks-ahead-of-state-of-the-union-address-134267973846
But but we do have some ultra smart experts here who still think the "damp sock puppet in human form" is better than "the orange man of mean tweets" LOL.
I went to Bureau of Land Management Site and it does not show that anywhere on that site. I googled it and it came up as an opinion on a liberal site. Please show me the BLM posting of this information or admit you just took it from fake news.Since you consider every source to be "fake news" unless it comes from a ultra-stupid winger site, it is no wonder that you consider anything contrary to your POV to be "an opinion on a liberal site."
I know that you will consider all of these sources "fake news" because they aren't from the dim-witted sites you frequent:

Those articles include and refer to the actual, verifiable data in order to make their point.
For example, they don't say, "I 'think' the Unemployment Rate declined to 4% from the double digits and climbing Biden inherited from Trump at record speed" or "I 'think' Biden passed a $1.2 Trillion bipartisan long overdue Infrastructure legislation that Trump never even got $1 for over 4 deadbeat Do Nothing years" or "I 'think' hospitalizations and deaths from Trump's Pandemic Virus are declining dramatically now" or anything like that.
The data they cite are real, not just their opinion.LOL you really lost your brain. Sorry bro. And glad that most Americans aren't as brainless stubborn as you. I'm happy that most people can change their positions based on their real experiences and learnings, instead of keep supporting this "damp sock puppet in human form".

Yeah, right. Hitler said the same thing every time before bombing yet another country.
Back then, however, there weren't too many mentally defectives who would believe his bullshit.
Then came Trump and dead-brain golfinhos, and QANON, and trafficked kids that Hillary held on chains in the cellar of a DC pizzeria.
And all of a sudden, spewing crazy bullshit that no reasonable person could possibly take seriously, became not only OK, but even respectable.
Getting the Russians to invade.
Sigh!

https://amgreatness.com/2022/02/28/its-time-for-biden-to-have-a-cognitive-assessment/Only About 16 months ago Biden beat the snot out of Trump in all of their "no teleprompter", unscripted Presidential debates, including the one where Trump tried but failed to infect him with his Trump's Pandemic virus and of course the one where Trump was too scared shitless to show up.
There is nothing wrong with Biden's cognitive capabilities.
When I hear him repeat "oranges, oranges" when he is apparently trying to say the word "origins" or "anominus, anominus" when he is apparently trying to say the word, "anonymous" or he says, "Yo, Semite" when he is apparently trying to say name of one of America's most famous National Parks, then I would highly recommend a cognitive capabilities examination.
I would also highly recommend it if as a self-proclaimed "stable genius" businessman whose disastrous economic decisions gave us 40 year high inflation, he praises as "smart, brilliant, a genius" the number one enemy of the civilized world whose spectacular act of historic stupidity just left him isolated and reviled by almost everyone on the planet including his own people except for America's defeated, twice impeached former so-called president and his blithering cult followers and whose last ok day of his life was the day before he moved to invade and overthrow a budding democracy and who just saw his country's Ruble plunge to below the value of a penny.
That would definitely be evidence of serious cognitive deficiency.

The following is a guide telling them how to watch it: https://news.yahoo.com/gop-guide-watching-biden-state-100105263.html.
Since the article comes from USA Today, I suspect that they will call it "fake news" without ever having read it. However, if it is the "fake news" that they say it is, then it is all a lie and they'll do none of the things contained in the article. Like:
1. Make sure you boo when Biden is introduced.
2. You should also boo when Biden gets behind the podium, when he opens his mouth and any time air moves past his vocal cords making vibrations that produce sound. The only time you should not boo is if he falls down or announces he is immediately resigning and handing the presidency back to Trump.
3. Clapping is strictly prohibited, except in the instance of the aforementioned falling or resigning.
4. Don't look at Pelosi! House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will be seated behind Biden during the address. It is crucial you avoid looking at her, as there have been reliable reports on the internet that she will be blinking subliminal lessons on critical race theory throughout the president's speech.LOL. Very good.
But I suspect the game plan for the GOP sitting in the chamber is to behave as politely as their lunatic minds will allow.
This is an election year. And a midterm at that. Biden's next election is almost 3 years away. What the GOP wants is to win or steal as many Congressional and Senate seats as possible.
The way they improve their chances to do that when it is impossible for them to ever run on their actual record of results going back about a century is to spend much of these election years pretending to be well thought out, a reasonable alternative to the Dems, a classic "Bothsider" option that shouldn't alarm anyone, in short, almost exactly the same as the Dems.
Might as well vote for them. Why not? They seem as normal and America-loving as Dems.
So they will probably behave themselves for the most part during Biden's speech.
Then after the election, if they have indeed taken control of the House and Senate, they will immediately revert right back to their old obstructionist, Do Nothing, America-hating, freedom and democracy-destroying Repub selves.

He's a twerpy little egocentric coward who his people would do well to remove without delay. And people who dislike the US need to find a new hero. That's down the toilet as well.Getting rid of dictators usually does not work that well, and Putin's history with the USA is being deleted. Here is Matt Taibbi:
I would like to point out that we already tried regime change in Russia. I remember, because I was there. And, thanks to a lot of lurid history that's being scrubbed now with furious intensity, it ended with Vladimir Putin in power. Not as an accident, or as the face of a populist revolt against Western influence that came later but precisely because we made a long series of intentional decisions to help put him there.
Once, Putin's KGB past, far from being seen as a negative, was viewed with relief by the American diplomatic community, which had been exhausted by the organizational incompetence of our vodka-soaked first partner, Boris Yeltsin. Putin by contrast was "a man with whom we could do business," a "liberal, humane, and decent European" of "alert, controlled poise" and "well-briefed acuity," who was open to anything, even Russia joining NATO. "I don't see why not," Putin said. "I would not rule out such a possibility. "
For anyone expecting me to be outraged about this I am, after all, almost daily denounced as a Putin-lover and apologist, so surely I must want the Great Leader to stay in power forever I have to disappoint. If Vladimir Putin were captured tomorrow and fired into space, I wouldn't bat an eye.

"I don't see why not," Putin said. "I would not rule out such a possibility."
The New York Times Magazine, noting that the KGB of the seventies that Putin joined was no longer really a murder factory but just another "thinking corporation," even compared him once to Russia's first true Western-looking leader:
In him, Russia has found a humane version of Peter the Great, a ruler who will open the country to the influence of a world at once gentler and more dynamic than Russia has ever been.
I've been bitter in commentary about Putin in recent years because I never forgot the way the West smoothed his rise, and pretends now that it didn't. It's infuriating also that many of us who were critical of him from the start are denounced now as Putin apologists, I think in part because we have inconvenient memories about who said what at the start of his story. The effort to wipe that history clean is reaching a fever pitch this week. Before they finish the job, it seemed worth getting it all down.
This was my first experience learning that "experts" lie. I'd believed all the tales of a benevolent American aid program helping Russia convert to democracy. Unfortunately the real story of Russia during those years was that it was leapfrogging both Europe and America in its progress toward a purely predatory capitalist model. It became overnight what America's own future would eventually resemble. Occupy Wall Street would not identify the "1%" in America until 2011, but Russia achieved the parody version a handful of mega-billionaires surrounded by a vast population with negative wealth as early as 1995-1996.
The revolution of 1991 was really a greed-fueled intelligence mutiny, in which a collection of senior communists and KGB officers worked with Western partners to dismantle the Soviet Union. A happy by-product was that these insiders got to act as the bulwark to counter-revolution by privatizing the country's wealth into their own hands, becoming the billionaire owners of obscene mega-yachts and jets and sports teams like Chelsea football and the future Brooklyn Nets. They became the instant-coffee elites whose personal investment in the survival of their states' institutions are a consistent element of modern neoliberal democracies everywhere.
Instead of explaining this, Western reporter colleagues based in Moscow sent mountains of stories home about Russia's "remarkable progress" (the term regularly used by the West's aid community) toward a free-market, Western-style paradise. They churned out hagiographic profiles of the English-speaking, often Western-educated politicians like Anatoly Chubais, the aforementioned Gaidar, Maxim Boyko, and other architects of Yeltsin's transition. The crucial events were the privatizations of Soviet industry, conducted at every step with the counsel of American (and specifically Harvard-trained) economists. These transactions were often described as "rough" or "bumpy. " Some of the more corrupt episodes, like the loans-for-shares auctions in which the Yeltsin government lent cronies money needed to buy controlling stakes in companies the size of Exxon or AT&T for pennies on the dollar, were described using mind-boggling euphemisms like "relatively fair" (the Washington Post formulation) or "relative transparency" (Euromoney, in naming Chubais "Central Banker of the Year".

The oligarch class was formalized in a stroke via a deal brokered at Davos in 1996. A handful of biznesmeni would be handed the loans-for-shares gifts in exchange for a promise to fund Yeltsin's campaign against the communists. The bankers had reason to worry. No less a source than Canada's current Finance Minister and former Financial Times writer Chrystia Freeland reported that they'the been warned by George Soros. Soros, Freeland said, told the oligarchs that Yeltsin, who initially polled at 7% nationally, would lose in 1996 to communist Gennady Zyuganov, who would certainly re-take their riches. "Boys, your time is up," he reportedly said.
Instead of fleeing, they agreed to throw their weight behind Yeltsin, putting the West-friendly Chubais in charge of the campaign. My good friend Leonid Krutakov was fired from Izvestia for reporting on the fee Chubais was paid for this service: an interest-free $3 million loan given by Stolichny bank.
The "relatively fair" privatization auctions were historic events. As my friends and former Moscow Times reporters Matt Bivens and Jonas Bernstein reported, "financiers" like Vladimir Potanin and Mikhail Khodorkovsky were loaned the capital to become controllers of, respectively, a third of the world's nickel and a fourth of its cobalt, and 2% of the world's oil reserves. Meanwhile murderous gangsters like Boris Berezovsky were gifted controlling stakes in companies like Aeroflot (from which he siphoned to a Swiss shell company roughly a third of its annual $400 million in revenues) and Russia's seventh-largest oil concern, Sidanko.
After Yelstin's win, the resultant new billionaires Russia's 1% were lavished with praise as they absconded with wealth belonging to the Russian people. The Wall Street Journal called Potanin a "Russian Bill Gates," while the New York Times compared Berezovsky to "Commodore Vanderbilt. " Meanwhile ordinary workers fainted from hunger on the job or were ground to bits in increasingly unsafe machinery, with everyone from miners to construction workers reduced to Matewan-style indenture. While at the exile I did a tour with Siberian bricklayers who worked long hours in frostbite conditions for chits to the company store worth a couple of bags of rice or flour a month.
Note: Putin's efforts at pretending to be a democrat were unusually transparent. In this respect he was a bit like Yeltsin, whose village-drunk exterior was self-consciously designed to make him look more nash, our "ours," compared to his spiffy predecessor Gorbachev, who came across like a man who'd blow Hitler's corpse for a Brooks Brothers gift card. Putin in the same way wanted it known he struggled to orate like a "technocrat," while American-educated peers like Chubais and Gaidar were fluent spouters of neoliberal wankery. You can imagine how it sounded when, asked about Borodin, Putin cited "a golden rule, a fundamental principle of any democratic system," that was "called presumption of innocence."
The framework for the nineties-era looting of Russia, that according to some estimates caused millions of premature deaths, depended upon insiders with intelligence backgrounds working the machinery of capital flight while political front creatures like Yeltsin were given Swiss bank accounts, French villas, and millions or billions in carrying charges as compensation for effecting the faade of "democracy. " The passage revealed him as a working girl to the West, one of the few truths he'd be embarrassed to admit.
The exile, and the Russian-language paper Stringer where I worked, went after Putin from the moment he appeared in Moscow. We depicted him in covers as a leather dominatrix forcing Russia to kneel, while taking considerable risk in publishing in what in hindsight was not the brightest move transcripts of wiretaps we obtained of Putin's vicious chief of staff Alexander Voloshin. We warned that Putin was becoming the Russian Michael Corleone, whose style was to "mix not- so-oblique public symbolism with energetic off-camera ruthlessness and violence," using intimidation to settle all family business against the free press and "reformers." We weren't alone in the expat community. Bivens, by then editor of the Moscow Times, committed multiple reporters to a painstaking investigation of election irregularities in Dagestan suggesting Putin's 2000 election was badly tainted. Few took up the story, except to report the Putin administration's denial.
Instead, the West hailed the cleanliness of Putin's 2000 election. The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, or OSCE, one of the world's primary election observers, said the "2000 presidential election represented a benchmark in the ongoing evolution of the Russian Federation's emergence as a representative democracy."
Harvard advisers Andrei Schleifer and Daniel Treisman as late as 2005 wrote a paper called A Normal Country: Russia After Communism that favorably contrasted the OSCE's assessment of Russian democracy under Putin with that of its ex-Soviet neighbors like Georgia ("ballot stuffing and protocol tampering" Azerbaijan ("primitive falsification" and Ukraine ("flagrant violations of voting procedures" and a "widespread, systematic, and co-ordinated campaign by state institutions at all levels to unduly influence voters" As noted in this space just last week, Bill Clinton upon Putin's election praised Russians for "voting in extraordinary numbers against a return to the past," adding that they'd "just completed a democratic transfer of power for the first time in a thousand years."
From 1991 on, Russia developed a community of ferocious muckrakers who took on the mob state and risked their lives almost every time they published. I was in awe of these people and tagged along with them over the years, trying to soak up any knowledge they were willing to give. By 1999, their ranks had been diminished by assassinations, takeovers, and newspaper closures. Still, they were determined to make a stand against Putin before his rule was cemented. They dug in when the second Chechen War was re-ignited after a series of suspicious bombings of Russian residential buildings in late 1999 were attributed to Chechen terrorists.
A Canadian paper asked him during this time in a fawning piece how he felt about being considered the sexiest man in his country. Putin replied, in Caesarian tones, "I endure it. " People like current Canadian Finance Minister Freeland talked in the New Statesman about his presidency as a reason to fall back "in love" with Russia. A World Bank spokesperson initially hyped Russia as "substantially better off" with him in power, cheering the fact that he would be a bulwark against a "centrally planned economy." The World Bank statement is useful to look at in retrospect. Addressing the moral issues of the Putin regime:
It is evidently true that any country's economic process has to be rooted in its own values and systems. And that those values and systems in Russia itself are in transition. There has been a tendency at times in the West to see things in simple terms sometimes in terms of standards that Western countries don't apply to themselves. That really comes back to what I said earlier it's going to be a messy process with setbacks as well as progress.
The West, in other words, was willing to overlook the "messiness" of Putin because he seemed a good candidate to be the silnaya ruka (strong hand) guaranteeing stability of trade the comatose Yeltsin never quite could be.
We thought he would be our bastard. Then, he became his own bastard.
In 2000 Putin began the process of re-writing the terms of the privatization arrangement brokered at Davos in 1996. It was the same deal, with one important change. Putin would allow the ex-Soviet crooks and Komsomoltsi who'the been gifted wealth beyond the dreams of even the richest Americans and Europeans to keep their ill-gotten gains, in exchange for absolute allegiance to him and a promise to get out of politics. "I want to draw your attention to the fact that you built this state yourself, to a great degree through the political or semi-political structures under your control,' Putin reportedly said. "So there is no point in blaming the reflection in the mirror."
Nikita Khrushchev returned from America so impressed he turned Ukraine into a cornfield. Putin never thought much of us and was not interested in living like Yeltsin, hated at home, his political life hanging by the thread of IMF loans. Like Chinese counterparts, he burned to throw off the stink of colonial servitude and be a superpower rather than depend on one. After Chechnya, Ossetia, Abkhazia, and Crimea, I'm embarrassed I didn't see him going this far, but the story itself isn't surprising.
Whether or not expanding or not expanding NATO to Ukraine would have altered the current picture is irrelevant. We were never not going to try, and Putin was never not going to respond as he has. He's been saying for a long time he would not accept a post-Cold War security arrangement that meant "one single center of force, one single center of decision making," bemoaning the "world of one master, one sovereign" and America's "almost contained hyper use of force in international relations. " When the United States recognized independent Kosovo, he said it was a "terrible precedent" that would hit the West "in the face" and "blow apart the whole system of international relations. " This seems to be more or less exactly where we are.
Not unlike Donald Trump, Putin made a wager early on that his country would fare better taking the nationalist path than it would as a vassal state to a global economic system he believed was declining. Now that he's made such a dramatic commitment in that direction, his story is destined for the same treatment in the Western press as Trump's election, as an unspeakable evil whose origins are a taboo subject. Anyone who even brings them up must be an apologist. What sort of person cares from whose womb the devil emerged?
We're watching a clash of civilizations, in which the international order needs to see its most infamous apostate, and the nationalism he represents, crushed both as an idea and as a military power. The situation is particularly dangerous because Putin has always operated on the understanding that the only political error that is not survivable is a show of weakness. Which means, to me, that if he has to turn Kyiv into a vacuum-bombed moonscape like Grozny, he will. It's horrific to contemplate. But to those demanding another denunciation of the man, I checked that box a long time ago, during the Frankensteinian portion of this story, when America had its best shot at fixing its Putin problem and chose not to try. We're past all that now. All that's left to do is hold on, and pray all of this madness cools somehow, before someone dusts off the button.
...how you got your post count up. By simply replying dismissively with the same crap whenever you don't have anything to counter a post with! That's why I don't post more than one answer, if that!What part is dismissive?
The fact that supporters of the one-term, twice impeached former guy call every source "fake news" that doesn't come from an ultra-stupid winger site? One can verify the truth of that on virtually every winger post.
The fact that the link you provided was an article originally published by CNN. The key to that is that the first letters in the article, the ones surrounded by parentheses, say CNN. Duh.
So the question still stands. Since the article is a CNN article and since wingers always call CNN articles "fake news", is the article true or false? If the article is true, then CNN isn't "fake news". If the article is false, then Democrats are not in for defeat in the mid-terms.
Or, will the wingers argue some form of "a broken clock is right twice per day"?

Biden opens borders for criminals and drug and sex traffickers.
Biden leaves thousands of Americans in Afghanistan to perish.
Biden kills USA energy industry creating highest gas prices since Obama presidency.
Biden has record inflation and driving more people into poverty and welfare.
Biden weakness allows Russia to invade Ukraine.

No offense to the xsimpletons here who actually believe Joe Biden (the sad, old pawn) is actually running the show. These woke people (LOL) can only think that anything they don't like is bad, and must have something to do with Trump. And, after all that Trump did for Israel. Such ingratitude.

The huge difference being the accomplishments I cited were accompanied by substantiation links.
Your accusations were accompanied by capital letters, small case letters, a few spaces and periods here and there, zero substantiation links and a ton of bullshit.Typical socialist wants to dispute facts that are true by saying they were written wrong. Bottom line is Biden has no accomplishments. His failures are killing America. It should all be capitalized so everyone sees his failures. I live in USA. I don't need links to see the devastation at the border. I don't need to see links to see inflation at record levels. All I need to do is go to the grocery store, drive by a gas station, go to a lumber store or go to a car dealer. I see inflation everywhere I go. I don't sit in a shithole apartment in a shithole country looking for links on fake news sites.
Since you consider every source to be "fake news" unless it comes from a ultra-stupid winger site, it is no wonder that you consider anything contrary to your POV to be "an opinion on a liberal site."
I know that you will consider all of these sources "fake news" because they aren't from the dim-witted sites you frequent:

Here is a great video on all that Biden has "accomplished". It is too funny: https://youtu.be/pSqoJTv0t2Q.
What has Biden done?
"Well. He's not a Republican."
For most brain dead Dems, that is enough.I really am beginning to wonder if you wingers think the purpose of the presidency or any other elected office is to get high poll numbers regardless of actual, verifiable economic or national security results.
Yes, Dem results, Biden results were and are superior to those of the Repubs while Repub results, Trump results were far inferior to those of the Dems.
As has been the pattern, by Party, for about 100 years.
If Herbert Hoover's and George W. Bush's poll ratings on their way out were 95% Job Approval, you would consider them to be The Greatest Presidents Of All Time, right?
LOL. Why bother to ask. Trump's results and his poll numbers were among the worst of all time and you wingers dropped that bizarre poll rating measure and think he was one of if not The Greatest anyway!
Even the biased MSM can't suppress the stupidity anymore. I'm not even putting the more factual references from real unbiased journalists.
On the eve of his State of the Union address, amid an international crisis, President Joe Biden has sunk to his worst approval numbers yet.
A new Washington Post / ABC poll found just 37 percent of adults approve of Biden's job performance.
https://www.vox.com/2022/3/1/22927945/biden-state-of-the-union-russia-ukraine-inflation

But but we do have some ultra smart experts here who still think the "damp sock puppet in human form" is better than "the orange man of mean tweets" LOL.So about the same as Trump's popularity.
https://amgreatness.com/2022/03/01/kamala-harris-offers-dumbed-down-explanation-of-russia-ukraine-war-on-black-radio-show/Good job.
Now the listeners of that radio show are far and away better informed about Putin's War To Strengthen NATO and the western alliance while destroying Russia's economy and standing in the world for trying to spread authoritarian dictatorships trhan all of the Putin-loving, Putin-praising idiots who tout him as "smart, brilliant, a genius" and "a strong leader" while claiming our POTUS is "weak" for producing historic economic gains and recovery from the latest Great Repub crash, recession, massive job losses and economic disaster and uniting NATO and the Western Alliance on behalf of democracy like never before.
You nailed it! Fake news tries to find positives about Biden and they avoid the truth and destruction Biden is creating.So, neither you nor the poster you think "nailed it" can produce a single credible source of data to substantiate even one of those thoroughly debunked claims?
Very telling.

Only About 16 months ago Biden beat the snot out of Trump in all of their "no teleprompter", unscripted Presidential debates, including the one where Trump tried but failed to infect him with his Trump's Pandemic virus and of course the one where Trump was too scared shitless to show up.
There is nothing wrong with Biden's cognitive capabilities.
When I hear him repeat "oranges, oranges" when he is apparently trying to say the word "origins" or "anominus, anominus" when he is apparently trying to say the word, "anonymous" or he says, "Yo, Semite" when he is apparently trying to say name of one of America's most famous National Parks, then I would highly recommend a cognitive capabilities examination.
I would also highly recommend it if as a self-proclaimed "stable genius" businessman whose disastrous economic decisions gave us 40 year high inflation, he praises as "smart, brilliant, a genius" the number one enemy of the civilized world whose spectacular act of historic stupidity just left him isolated and reviled by almost everyone on the planet including his own people except for America's defeated, twice impeached former so-called president and his blithering cult followers and whose last ok day of his life was the day before he moved to invade and overthrow a budding democracy and who just saw his country's Ruble plunge to below the value of a penny.
That would definitely be evidence of serious cognitive deficiency.You are correct that was the worst beating I've ever witnessed, but Biden was the one that was getting stomped so badly.
That was so horrible I'm really surprised Trump didn't get arrested for elder abuse after those beatings LOL.
It was even worse then when our Lord and Savior.
Stuck Hillary the turds, face into the outhouse shitter and wouldn't let her breathe in 2016 LMAO.
I believe his debates with her sealed his win.
So about the same as Trump's popularity.Worst since 1979, according to even your biased MSM opinion column:
"Biden's -20 point net approval rating on the economy is the worst for any president since at least 1978 at the time of their first State of the Union."
"Since Gallup started asking that question in 1979, there has never been a president giving their first State of the Union when a lower percentage of Americans were satisfied with how the country was going."
Reference: https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/01/politics/approval-rating-biden-sotu-analysis/index.html.
Our resident crackpots are so hyper today. Is it the moon, I wonder?I think it is the ongoing dramatic decline in Trump's Pandemic hospitalizations and deaths. Fewer Americans getting seriously ill or dying from it is likely to mean more people will emerge from their bunkers, even more will create and be hired to new jobs, Biden's already roaring economy will roar even greater and people won't help but notice it.
That would be a disaster in the minds of Repubs under normal circumstances. But under current circumstances where they feel they are one Biden poll number tick away from taking over everything in 1-3 years so they can enjoy one Great Repub Crash and Massive USA Jobs Destruction event after another on into infinity as well as drowning that dreaded American democracy Baby in its tub as they always dreamed of doing, the prospect of an even greater Biden / Dem recovery soon really, really has them on the razor's edge of hysteria.
He confirms every truth well informed people have been saying about Trump and Biden and destroys every lie ill-informed loons have been saying about them.
Sure enough, Trump was a do nothing, know nothing moron who spent 4 years kissing Putin's ass and the only reason Putin waited until now to invade Ukraine was because he wasn't sure his military was ready.
In other words, if the Republican Party's surgical removal of anti-Putin invasion military support for Ukraine from their 2016 platform on Putin / Trump's demand along with Trump delaying and denying military aid to Ukraine until Dems in Congress busted him and forced him to give the damn money and support to Ukraine, you prick, and if Trump's "perfect phone call" had all worked out as Putin, Trump and the Republican Party had planned, Putin's military most certainly would have been ready sooner and in a stronger position relative to a weaker Ukraine's military than it is today since Biden took office.

TheHill" https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/596338-john-bolton-not-accurate-to-say-trumps-behavior-somehow-deterred-the?amp.
Former national security adviser John Bolton pushed back against the idea that former President Trump's behavior discouraged Russian military aggression while he was in office, saying, "It's just not accurate to say that Trump's behavior somehow deterred the Russians."
During an interview with Bolton, Newsmax host Rob Schmitt said that "there is something to be said, though, about the simple fact that there was not aggression during the four years" Trump was in office, noting a list of actions that the Washington think tank Brookings Institution said the Trump administration took against Russia.
"I mean, he took a very tough stance against Russia. I'm surprised you don't think that he would have handled it better than Joe Biden," Schmitt told Bolton.
"He did not," Bolton replied. "We didn't sanction Nord Stream 2. We should have. We should have brought the project to an end. We did impose sanctions on Russian oligarchs and several others because of their sales of S-400 anti-aircraft systems to other countries. But in almost every case, the sanctions were imposed with Trump complaining about it, saying we were being too hard.

Great resolve them Iranians. Is kamala correcting him by mouthing Ukraine?
Brandon good. Americans bad, don't know how good they have it!
On the other hand he did mention the amount of meat packing companies. Four, four! He must've read my post! I wonder under what moniker he goes by here at ISG lol!
He disappointed me though when talking about all the good thing he's doing on the border issue, he neglected to mention the night flights.
To be fair one of the things I really liked was his support for funding the police! (no joke, I liked it) The second one escapes me!
There, I'm not one-sided
Our resident crackpots are so hyper today. Is it the moon, I wonder?Our resident crackpots commonly known as socialists have always had this trait. Socialists have always been crackpots and always will be. You don't need to wonder why just accept it.
So, neither you nor the poster you think "nailed it" can produce a single credible source of data to substantiate even one of those thoroughly debunked claims?.If you want a credible source come to USA and drive by a gas station or go into a grocery store to see what Biden has accomplished. Hiding in a apartment in a foreign country reading fake news qualifies you for nothing.

Worst since 1979, according to even your biased MSM opinion column:
"Biden's -20 point net approval rating on the economy is the worst for any president since at least 1978 at the time of their first State of the Union."
"Since Gallup started asking that question in 1979, there has never been a president giving their first State of the Union when a lower percentage of Americans were satisfied with how the country was going."
Reference: https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/01/politics/approval-rating-biden-sotu-analysis/index.html.Don't wingers consider CNN "fake news"? So how can a poll conducted by CNN or referenced in any CNN article be true. After all, isn't it "fake news"?
If you want a credible source come to USA and drive by a gas station or go into a grocery store to see what Biden has accomplished. Hiding in a apartment in a foreign country reading fake news qualifies you for nothing.He asked for a "credible source." Kinda like you asked for re" the Bureau of Land Management website. But sure, deflect 'cause that's what you do best.

I really am beginning to wonder if you wingers think the purpose of the presidency or any other elected office is to get high poll numbers regardless of actual, verifiable economic or national security results.BB, that was a video of what Biden accomplished, and the best answer was "he is not a Republican."
Ask me that of Trump, and I would say: stable economy, no wars, secure border, energy independence, and rational leadership.
As for polls, Trump was hammered every day for 4 years in the media. Trump jokes about injecting bleach and he is such an idiot. We just saw Biden make a huge gaffe with Iranians and Ukrainians and it is "Oh, that is okay, we know what you meant."
I do not give a damn about polls. Were Americans better off under Biden or Trump? It is Trump, and it is not even close. Not only do we have sky high inflation, we have to worry about their being WW3.

Sure enough, Trump was a do nothing, know nothing moron who spent 4 years kissing Putin's ass and the only reason Putin waited until now to invade Ukraine was because he wasn't sure his military was ready.
In other words, if the Republican Party's surgical removal of anti-Putin invasion military support for Ukraine from their 2016 platform on Putin / Trump's demand along with Trump delaying and denying military aid to Ukraine until Dems in Congress busted him and forced him to give the damn money and support to Ukraine, you prick, and if Trump's "perfect phone call" had all worked out as Putin, Trump and the Republican Party had planned, Putin's military most certainly would have been ready sooner and in a stronger position relative to a weaker Ukraine's military than it is today since Biden took office.

Bolton was fired by Trump. Bolton never met a war he did not like. He wanted a more aggressive approach in Venezuela, Afghanistan, and North Korea. Take Nordstrom 2. Trump fought it with all he could. Biden was like, "Eh, it is fine."
Bolton's critique of Trump was filed with gotcha type "I am smarter than you" points like Trump did not know where Ukraine was or Finland was part of Russia. Whatever.
Truth is Bolden's sorry ass was fired because he wanted to go to war with everyone. Trump did arm the Ukrainians but with a guy like Bolton that was not enough. Bolton is the kind that thinks Ukraine should have been allowed to enter NATO and be given nukes. He is bought and paid for by the defense industry and advocated for the stupid Iraq war. Bolton being critical of Trump is as certain as the sun rising tomorrow.

1. They're willing and ready to lie whenever it suits their agenda.
2. They are too lazy to lie convincingly.
I don't live in a foreign country. I live in NYC, the second most expensive market in the USA I don't see huge issues at grocery stores. I see some moderate increases with some foodstaffs. Cream cheese is about 20% more expensive than it used to be and it's rarely on sale lately. As to gas, I have paid more.
Now, [Deleted by Admin] who for 4 years sucked off the worst tyrant on the planet, who tirelessly worked on destroying our democratic institutions and who almost managed to sever our ties with the rest of the civilized world.
And they also insist that all our problems, mind you, have nothing to do with the pandemic that kept the world economy shut down for 2 years or the raging war in Europe brought on by the moron's own BFF, but president Biden, who's already done more for the working man than all repub presidents in the last 70 years combined.
Well, keep lying. It's just that your lies are so flat and dumb, I wish you put a little effort in it. At least your former Liar-in-Chief was somewhat entertaining. You are not.

Below I have quoted verbatim today's editorial from the Wall Street Journal's Editorial Board. It is a honest analysis of last night's State of the Union Address where the President of the United States could of made a mid-course correction and helped his failing presidency, the country, and the world. But in typical Brandon fashion, the Wizard of OZ missed the opportunity. He probably was not even aware he had one. Truth be told: Joe, I like vanilla ice cream before my afternoon nap, Biden is no Bill Clinton and Biden is just not up to the job.
Here is the editorial:
"Biden had supportive words for Ukraine against Russia, but he offered no domestic or defense policy reset. Biden is no Olaf Scholz. The new Chancellor upended decades of center-left German defense and energy policy this week after Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine, and Mr. Biden had a similar opportunity in his State of the Union address Tuesday. He missed the moment. The President remained on the same policy course of his first year, albeit dressed up in new anti-inflation packaging.
More defense spending to meet the threats from autocrats? No. A new appreciation for the contribution of fossil fuels to American and European security? Not a word. A note that government spending contributed to the highest inflation in 40 years? Nope. A word of praise for the private Pharma innovation that developed Covid therapies and vaccines? He proposed government price controls instead.
Mr. Biden did offer stirring support for Ukraine and its fight for freedom, which received bipartisan applause. His Administration deserves credit for helping to rally Europe and other nations to impose sanctions and provide more military aid. He was properly condemning of Mr. Putin.
But his self-congratulation ignored the failure to deter the Russian autocrat. "We were ready" if Mr. Putin invaded, Mr. Biden said. But if the USA Had been ready, Mr. Putin wouldn't have invaded. The Russian invaded because he thought the West would do little. And Mr. Putin finds himself in a struggle now because of the bravery of 41 million Ukrainians, not the strength of Europe or the United States.
What we also didn't hear was a vow that Russia will not be allowed to conquer and hold Ukraine. There was no warning to Mr. Putin not to launch missiles into residential neighborhoods or surround and starve cities into submission like a medieval siege. This was not Harry Truman at the dawn of the Cold War calling the world to meet a new danger.
On his domestic agenda, Mr. Biden acknowledged inflation, as he had to given the polls. But he blamed rising prices on the pandemic and greedy businesses, and his solutions are to unleash prosecutors and antitrust cops, and to spend even more money on social welfare and entitlements. His most other-worldly line was that his program would "cut energy costs for families an average of $500 a year by combating climate change."
The entire point of his climate agenda is to raise the price of energy for Americans by reducing the supply and increasing the cost of coal, oil and natural gas. His regulators are working to do that every day in every way. It was as if the horror of the last week, which exposed the folly of Europe's dependence on Russian oil and gas, had never happened. The climate left still has a choke hold on this Presidency.
An anxious world is looking for American leadership in a dangerous new era. Instead Mr. Biden offered a rehash of his first-year domestic agenda that has brought him to his low political ebb. It's dispiriting that a White House facing so many daunting challenges could come up with so little. The President really does need to fire some people and get better advice."
So it looks like we will have 3 more years of the same same declining leadership. Oh fuck! The only good news is Wokeism is dead. Thank you, Mr. President. Let's go Brandon. Buy Gold!
Stop with the fake news. Show me the facts on the Bureau of Land Management site. That will be the truth. Why do you always avoid the truth?Since the Bureau of Land Management is part of the Department of the Interior (you probably didn't know that), I found the data that you were looking for. The data all comes from the BLM site. You, of course, will say that this, too, is "fake news" or you'll say something equally as nonsensical. But here's the link: https://www.doi.gov/sites/doi.gov/files/report-on-the-federal-oil-and-gas-leasing-program-doi-eo-14008.pdf.
I will warn you in advance that the report contains lots of bigly words. Undoubtedly too bigly for most supporters of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy. But you've got to take the good with the bad!
Please read the last paragraph on page 4 and the first paragraph of page 5. Reread them enough times that the data penetrates. Since you won't read them, I am including them here to let you know that I have read them. FYI, the bold and italics are mine: "Federal onshore oil and gas production accounts for approximately seven percent of domestically produced oil and eight percent of domestically produced natural gas. The BLM currently manages 37,496 Federal oil and gas leases covering 26.6 million acres with nearly 96,100 wells. Of the more than 26 million onshore acres under lease today to the oil and gas industry,nearly13.9 million (or 53 percent) of those acres are non-producing. The oil and gas industry has a substantial number of unused permits to drill onshore. As of September 30,2021, the [be]oil and gas industry holds more than 9,600 approved permits that are available to drill[ / bi]."
The majority of page 5 deals with 'offshore' production. At the end of page 5, the report says: "[bi]The 55 percent of the leased acreage that is non-producing[ / bi] may be in an.
Earlier stage of the development process, or being held for speculative reasons, indicating a sufficient inventory of leased acreage to sustain development for years to come.
By the way, [be]non producing[ / be] means, as it says above, [be]being held for speculative reasons[ / be]. In other words, [be]stockpiled[ / be].
So, this government report says [be]the exact same thing as the OP said[ / be]. It also says [be]exactly the same thing[ / be] as the links I provided that you called "fake news."
So, as it turns out, you are the one spreading misinformation.
But we all know that misinformation is the hallmark of supporters of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy. It is all you have. If Donnie didn't say it, it isn't real! If I didn't hear it from some winger source like Tucker "Nobody in their right mind should believe anything I say" Carlson, it isn't real! If it didn't come from Newsmax or Infowars or OANN or some other abysmally stupid source, it isn't real!
"Fake news", "fake news", "fake news". Hogwash!

"Fake news", "fake news", "fake news". Hogwash!And the concluding statement:
Modernization of the Federal oil and gas program has been delayed for decades to the detriment of the American public, their public lands and waters, the environment, wildlife, and more. In its current form, the program falls short of serving the public interest in a number of important respects. It provides insufficient opportunities for public input, shortchanges taxpayers and States, and tilts toward opening up low potential lands without adequately considering competing multiple-use opportunities.
Gee, I wonder why oil companies do not want to drill on federal lands.

Stop with the fake news. Show me the facts on the Bureau of Land Management site. That will be the truth. Why do you always avoid the truth?Table 1: Oil and Gas Royalty Rates across Federal Public, Private, and State Lands27 Leasing Jurisdiction Oil & Gas Royalty Rate California Negotiated lease-by-lease, but generally no less than 16.67 percent Colorado 20 percent Montana 16.67 percent New Mexico 18.75-20 percent North Dakota 16.67 or 18.75 percent depending on the county Oklahoma 18.75 percent Texas 20-25 percent Utah 16.67 percent Wyoming 16.67 percent Private Lands Generally, 12.5-25 percent Federal Lands 12.5 percent, sometimes less.
Yeah, it is a good thing there is nothing Biden can do. The feds collect 20 percent or so royalties while we endure a 40% increase in the price of gasoline.
Gee, if only those royalties could be waived for 2 years. Obviously, the bureaucrats at BLM would never let that happen.
There are so many times that anyone with a brain could fix the problems, but these government bureaucrats under Biden cannot make it happen time and again. It is like Afghanistan over and over. Can these people do anything right?

I'm guessing he'll never work in DC again, ok maybe just for the Rachel Maddow show or CNN LMAO.Have Bolton's reports of Trump's astonishing ignorance, stupidity and, say, weakness on Russian sanctions been refuted by anyone else in the room with them at the time?
For example, did the Trump Chief of Staff named by Bolton ever come forward and say, "Oh no. John got it all wrong. Trump isn't a fucking moron who didn't know if Finland was part of Russia or not. And he was so tough on Russia he wanted to impose more sanctions for invading Crimea, not secretly neglect to impose them"?
Nope.
On the contrary. The list of Trump administration officials who also characterized Trump as a fucking moron is almost as long as the list of people he did business with or sold his horsehit bogus crap to characterizing him as a deadbeat con artist.
Like I've already said before, there are two problems with right-wing nuts.

Now, the crackpots are trying to convince (each other?) that we would've been better off with a loud, obnoxious moron who knows nothing about international relations, who for 4 years sucked off the worst tyrant on the planet, who tirelessly worked on destroying our democratic institutions and who almost managed to sever our ties with the rest of the civilized world..I am sure you don't see high gas prices either when you go past a service station. You really think I am lying that oil prices have gone from $40 a barrel to $108 a barrel? I am sure when you go past your service stations gas prices are lower now than when Trump was president.

2. They are too lazy to lie convincingly.
I don't live in a foreign country. I live in NYC, the second most expensive market in the USA I don't see huge issues at grocery stores. I see some moderate increases with some foodstaffs. Cream cheese is about 20% more expensive than it used to be and it's rarely on sale lately. As to gas, I have paid more.
Now, the crackpots are trying to convince (each other?) that we would've been better off with a loud, obnoxious moron who knows nothing about international relations, who for 4 years sucked off the worst tyrant on the planet, who tirelessly worked on destroying our democratic institutions and who almost managed to sever our ties with the rest of the civilized world..Biden admitted inflation was a problem. The federal reserve is trying to stop record inflation by raising interest rates. Democrats in congress admit inflation is at a record level. So I guess they are liars too. 99% of Americans are seeing this every day. Denial will not make it go away. Gas in San Diego was about $3.25 a gallon under Trump and now is over $5.00 a gallon. You really think these are lies?
And the concluding statement:
Modernization of the Federal oil and gas program has been delayed for decades to the detriment of the American public, their public lands and waters, the environment, wildlife, and more. In its current form, the program falls short of serving the public interest in a number of important respects. It provides insufficient opportunities for public input, shortchanges taxpayers and States, and tilts toward opening up low potential lands without adequately considering competing multiple-use opportunities.
Gee, I wonder why oil companies do not want to drill on federal lands.Nice try, but you have answered a question that Canada didn't ask.
Why is it that trumpers always do that?
But, to your point, the report was taking the BLM to task because when a oil company buys a lease (currently) that lease simply stops use of the land for any other purpose (even if the oil company is simply stockpiling that lease for possible use 10 or 15 years down the road). So leases on Federal land (and there are a lot of them that are unused as the report said) eliminate the Forest Service, for example, building a hiking trail or a campground our some other thing.
The fragments of border wall built during the Trump administration were physically breached more than 3,000 times between 2019 and 2021.
Customs and Border Protection spent $2. 6 million to repair 3,272 such breaches in that time period.
The Trump administration in 2017 held a design contest to choose the final ideation for former President Trump's signature construction project, and ultimately built a series of prototypes in a location near San Diego.
Administration officials ultimately chose a design with 18 30-foot-tall steel bollards cemented into the ground, joined at the top by a steel beam.
Upon completion of the first segments, videos quickly surfaced of smuggling groups using common power tools to cut the bollards near the bottom of the wall, easily swinging them out of the way to cross the border.
Pretty much sums up Trumpian incompetence.

Table 1: Oil and Gas Royalty Rates across Federal Public, Private, and State Lands27 Leasing Jurisdiction Oil & Gas Royalty Rate California Negotiated lease-by-lease, but generally no less than 16.67 percent Colorado 20 percent Montana 16.67 percent New Mexico 18.75-20 percent North Dakota 16.67 or 18.75 percent depending on the county Oklahoma 18.75 percent Texas 20-25 percent Utah 16.67 percent Wyoming 16.67 percent Private Lands Generally, 12.5-25 percent Federal Lands 12.5 percent, sometimes less.
Yeah, it is a good thing there is nothing Biden can do. The feds collect 20 percent or so royalties while we endure a 40% increase in the price of gasoline.
Gee, if only those royalties could be waived for 2 years. Obviously, the bureaucrats at BLM would never let that happen.
There are so many times that anyone with a brain could fix the problems, but these government bureaucrats under Biden cannot make it happen time and again. It is like Afghanistan over and over. Can these people do anything right?Oil companies and pharmaceutical companies each have thousands of lobbyist.
Constantly throwing all kinds of shit against the walls (to see what might stick).
Trying to take advantage of any current event or social issue.
To lie, cheat and panhandle things from government.
Like free oil and gas leases.

Well, keep lying, crackpots. It's just that your lies are so flat and dumb, I wish you put a little effort in it. At least your former Liar-in-Chief was somewhat entertaining. You are not.Well said. And it has the added advantage over the crackpot wingers' posts of being true.

Jobless claims total 215,000, fewer than expected; productivity rises 6.6%
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/03/weekly-jobless-claims-.html?__source=androidappshare
On jobless claims, last weeks total represented a decline of 18,000 from the previous week and was the lowest since Jan. 1.
Continuing claims, which run a week behind the headline number, edged to 1.48 million.
However, the four-week moving average, which smooths out weekly volatility, moved down to 1.54 million, the lowest level since April 4, 1970.BTW, how's Russia doing 'on Biden's watch'?
Of course, that was a typo in my previous post.
Under Biden, continuing jobless claims are at a 52 year low, not a 42 year low.
If Trump had convinced a few Repub state secretaries to throw out likely Dem ballots or "find" more likely Repub votes in 2020 as they will this November, that is the only thing Trump and the typically pro Repub Mainstream Media would be talking about for several days during this election year.
Oh, and how wonderful it is that with all those millions of new higher paying jobs created, paying a few extra dollars at the grocery store and at the pump is actually a pleasure. They'd all be spinning it that way too.
And every winger Repub would agree.
You avoid the truth and slither back to your fake news. I guess that is why you left USA because you can't face reality. Or maybe you just can't afford to live here with the Biden inflation.Why do you avoid the truth by not commenting on the post I schooled you on re: oil and gas leases? The one where you wanted data from BLM and I provided it to you? Can't you face reality?
Or do you just like yelling "fake news", "fake news", fake news" over and over again?
Biden admitted inflation was a problem. The federal reserve is trying to stop record inflation by raising interest rates. Democrats in congress admit inflation is at a record level. So I guess they are liars too. 99% of Americans are seeing this every day. Denial will not make it go away. Gas in San Diego was about $3.25 a gallon under Trump and now is over $5.00 a gallon. You really think these are lies?I suspect you haven't ever heard of the Latin phrase "Post hoc ergo propter hoc". Especially because it is in another language.
However, the literal English translation is "after this, therefore because of this". It figuratively means "Since event why followed event X, event why must have been caused by event X. " (I am trusting that you know the difference between literal and figurative. If you don't, just stop here because the rest will be over your head.).
This is the standard winger response to a lot of things. Take your idiotic interest in gasoline prices. Gas prices were $3. 25 under Trump. Then Biden got elected. (that's event X just to help you and the rest of the wingers follow along easily). Gas prices are now over $5. 00 under Biden. (that's event Y).
If wingers were more intelligent, they'd look at the root causes of inflation. But it is just easier for you to wrongly frame it in terms of "post hoc ergo propter hoc".
But then, if wingers were more intelligent, they wouldn't have voted for the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy in the first place.

Not only did Biden waste billions of dollars but with his open border stance has put the lives in America in danger every day. Never in the history of the world has a leader of any country failed to secure his countries borders. Biden is killing Americans every day with the drugs and crime pouring across our southern border. Anyone who supports these crimes can also take responsibility for killing Americans.

They cut tubing with them. They cut tile with them. Anybody with half a brain (which, by definition leaves out wingers) knows that these grinders are cordless, too. But it.
Isn't just grinders. Give a Mexican a couple of long 2 x4's, some 1 x3's, a few nails and voilà (wingers usually spell it "wallah") a ladder. All for about 5 bucks. It is magic I tell you. Magic! Who woulda thunk it?

The thing that makes me laugh the most is all the businesses complaining about labour shortages. Maybe there is sense in having immigration (I am not advocating illegal immigration). Perhaps there would not be a shortage of truck drivers and waiters.

Anyone who supports these crimes can also take responsibility for killing Americans.So what you said was essentially "completing the border wall would stop people from cutting it." Is that what you're trying to say? How ludicrous.
When the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former got kicked to the curb, he had built something like 40 miles of "new wall". In other words, a wall in a place that never had a wall before. In four years of construction. OK, maybe 2 years of construction 'cause I'll cut him some slack. That's 20 miles a year at best. The border is some 2,000 miles long. At that rate of progress, it would take 100 years to complete a wall. Whoopee!
And to boot, most of the boondoggle of "Donnie's Wall" had less than stellar results. Yes, Mexicans cut the bollards in the impenetrable wall with $30 angle grinders and covered it up with $1 worth of putty. Yes, Mexicans scaled the impenetrable wall with $5 ladders. But that's not the worst part. In many cases, the sensors and cameras looked everywhere but down, so migrants and smugglers hid beneath them. The software, designed to detect humans, falsely dispatched agents to apprehend grazing cattle. And sometimes the hardware simply succumbed to the punishing sun, wind and rain of the Southwest. All of this happened on Donnie's watch. So tell me again exactly who was incompetent?
By the way, where is Mexico's check for this boondoggle? Or are you going to say that the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS never said that Mexico was going to pay for the wall? Or that he was joking? Or that it was just hyperbole? Better ask Tucker "Nobody in their right mind should believe anything I say" Carlson how to answer that question.
Incompetence? Yep. From the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy and everyone who voted for him.

GDP growth, unemployment rates, average wages have all been moving in the right direction, with unemployment at about 4%, a multi-year low even with places like New York City lagging behind; GDP growth is expected to be above 5.5% for 2021, the best since 1984; wage growth for the bottom of the economic pyramid has been notable for the first time in a generation. In fact, wage growth for the bottom of the economic pyramid has actually been faster than the one thing that dampens the picture: inflation.https://time.com/6130525/economy-doing-well-why-does-it-feel-like-a-disaster/.
Inflation is right-wingers' best and dearest friend, a great talking (scratch that, SCREAMING) point as if the once-in-100-years pandemic has never happened and Biden is somehow responsible for everything that's happened in America since February 2020. Yeah, well, good luck with that.
By the way, you've never said how much you like or dislike Mr. Putin. I mean for someone whose heart goes out to poor folks suffering from high energy costs, this seems to be one topic you're carefully trying to avoid.

Yet, practically every Dem got chased down by MSM and pestered to answer for the idea as though Biden, Pelosi, Schumer or an entire house of congressional Dems had voted to Defund The Police.
Oh look! It turns out one Party in a house of Congress did vote unanimously to Defund The Police!
That would be the Republican Party in the USA House of Representatives voting unanimously to Defund The Police. Yes, including its Leadership:

The same way almost no MSM have chased down and pestered members of the Republican Party to explain how and why their actual leadership decided attacking and killing cops, vandalism, theft, desecration and deadly violent Anti America insurrection are really mere "Legitimate Political Discourse" against which no funding of police should happen anyway given that the Republican Party is now considering those crimes to be our Constitutionally protected right to free expression.

But, then, I suppose Putin didn't have any option for invading Ukraine but to blunder into his spectacularly stupid mistake at the worst possible time for him; while Dem President Biden was in office.
Putin really was counting on the weakening of Ukraine's military position against his invasion to happen as the result of Trump / The Republican Party surgically removing "necessary" military support for Ukraine in their 2016 election platform, Trump secretly refusing to impose invasion-related sanctions against Russia until the Dems in Congress busted him for it and forced him to impose them anyway, Trump secretly denying Ukraine the military funding Congress earmarked for that pro democracy effort until, again, he was busted by the Dems in Congress for it, Trump's deservedly Impeachable transgression of blackmailing Ukraine's president into "finding" something he knew didn't exist, dirt on his political opponent with that shameful "perfect phone call" idiocy, as a means to further deny Ukraine that military support, dismantle any and all democratic nation alliances opposed to the invasion, etc, etc, etc in order to improve his (Putin's) military and economic leverage against that of Ukraine's so it would be a swift and clean takeover for him to destroy that budding democracy and enslave it as another win for authoritarian dictatorships.
But that was not to be. The Republican Party's front man in that Party-wide effort, Donald Trump, was just too clumsy and incompetent a salesman and negotiator to get her done before Biden roundly defeated him in a landslide election victory and immediately swing into action to effectively reunite those democratic alliances stronger and better than ever.
As Putin saw that happening with every passing hour of Biden's historically positive first year and months of his presidency, Putin simply could not delay his, Trump's and the Republican Party's dream of destroying democracy wherever it exists any longer.
Bad timing.
Even if or when Putin's vastly larger military might prevails on official battlefield terms, there will never ever be a Russian "win" out of this.

The Biden administration announced a new round of sanctions targeting Russian oligarchs and their family members who are supporting President Vladimir Putin as he wages war in Ukraine.
Asked at the White House about the expanded sanctions, press secretary Jen Psaki said that the U.S. was confident that these measures were an effective approach.
President Joe Biden said later Thursday afternoon that the sanctions already imposed on Putin and those around him have had a profound impact.
When TrumpShit collects the $1 billion check from Mexico to pay for the construction that was done during the four years of recent construction.The wall works as proven by the border patrol. But half a wall doesn't work well. Biden screwed America royally with stopping the building of the wall and reversing Trump border policies. Asylum seekers should be required to wait outside the country. Criminal and drugs should be stopped. Biden wants open borders. Bottom line.
Trumps wall is a failure. Its stops almost no one. It could stretch the length of the border and would still be a failure. Analogous to a car going over a speed hump. Basically as useless as the guy who championed it. BTW has Mexico paid up yet?

Even some Americans. Biden still refuses to sanction oil from Russia and USA continues to pour $80 million dollars a day into Putin's war. USA is funding the invasion of Ukraine.

Even some Americans. Biden still refuses to sanction oil from Russia and USA continues to pour $80 million dollars a day into Putin's war. USA is funding the invasion of Ukraine. Democrats and republicans together are lobbying Biden to sanction Russian oil and hurt Russia but he refuses. Russia is getting rich off of fools like Biden. Every person that voted for Biden can take credit for innocent people dying. The socialists here must be so proud.Here is yet another trumper who thinks that disciplining your kids beforehand is good policy. See, Canada, that's what sanctions prior to invasion are. "Hey, George, I think you're going to get into trouble if you go out tonight so I'm going to ground you. " Like it or not, Russia has a right to do whatever it wants on their own territory. Period. Otherwise, we would have a situation of "I think trumpers are going to cause trouble on January 6th. Let's lock'them all up on January 5th."
You trumpers are so used to the Mango Mussolini's tactic of "ready, fire, aim" that you simply can't see past that. Sure, let's put the kibash on Russian oil before we have commitments from US oil producers to make up the difference. See, Donnie the Dumbass would do that, then he'd backpedal of it all went South. And blame somebody else for his mistake.
But Biden actually knows what he's doing. You certainly don't and neither did the Orange Fruitcake.
I'm surprised that you didn't blame Biden for not sending in troops or not imposing a no-fly zone.
Zelensky statements today pretty much told the story of Ukraine disaster. Russia-Ukraine: Zelenskyy says it's a 'pity' US support came 'after' Russian war.

Personally I would have no problem with the US stationing a few squadrons of fighters and ground support aircraft and a carrier group in Black sea. Then again Putin is such an imbecile that he is shelling a nuclear power plant, do you trust him not to go full nuclear war? Do you want nuclear war Canada? I can just see you typing out " Biden's Nucl." just as you are incinerated in a blast.
You are correct, there are bipartisan negotiations to sanction Russian oil. How about waiting for a veto before claiming Biden is opposing it. Truly if today Biden announced he was sanctioning Russian oil you would criticize him for driving petrol prices up.

No, I don't think that is what I said. I probably said no Democtatic Party leadership promoted or tried to legislate "Defund The Police." One or even 2 Dems saying it or suggesting the idea would not mean anything.
Yet, practically every Dem got chased down by MSM and pestered to answer for the idea as though Biden, Pelosi, Schumer or an entire house of congressional Dems had voted to Defund The Police.
Oh look! It turns out one Party in a house of Congress did vote unanimously to Defund The Police!
That would be the Republican Party in the USA House of Representatives voting unanimously to Defund The Police. Yes, including its Leadership:
"'Republicans are defunding the police': Fox News anchor stumps congressman.

Damn, based on how it's going and will continue to go for decades if nor forever, Sleepy Joe and his supporters should take it!
Russia is well and truly fucked for the foreseeable future and for a hell of a long time after that. This might be the worst defeat for Russia of all time. It is already far worse than their defeat in Afghanistan followed close behind by the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Sleepy Joe Brandon and the coalition of united democracies he brilliantly pulled together in an already earlier defeat of the Putin / Trump / Repub plan to dismantle and destroy them are winning this war too. Overwhelmingly.
And at so little cost to America. They have to pay a few dollars more at the pump for a while. Shit, compared to what Russia is going through, that's nothing. Especially when you consider that, adjusted for inflation and after paying all taxes and necessary expenses, the typical American family has more discretionary money in their pockets to buy stuff and enjoy life than they had in 2019.
Interesting that Putin's bullshit excuse for declaring this disastrous counterproductive war was to "defeat Nazis".
Hey, that was another great victory for Sleepy Joe Brandon and his supporters. We did exactly the same thing for America in the 2020 election. Except in that case the threat was real, not bullshit, and the outcome was Joe won in a landslide and what followed was one of the greatest jobs creation and economic expansion recoveries from the typical catastrophic conditions Trump / Repubs created and left behind.
Again, that is quite the opposite of the defeat and outcome Putin's Russia is suffering now and will continue to suffer for a very long time.
To paraphrase another great American President, "Don't mess with Sleepy Joe Brandon"!
The world knows Putin knew exactly when to invade Ukraine and he waited 4 years to get a incompetent president with weak foreign policy. Not only did he get a weak president of USA but he got a stupid one who hated USA oil production. Biden was the pawn Putin needed. Biden was either very stupid or he was Putin's ally in reducing American oil production and getting dependent on foreign oil. With oil up nearly 200% in Biden's first 23 months of office Russia got rich. Biden funded this war and is still funding this war and still supporting Putin. Even Pelosi and the rest of the Americans want Biden to sanction Russia oil but Biden refuses to sanction Russia oil. He is either an ally of Putin or very stupid. You decide.

That's how Biden deters!Another supporter of the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy who simply does not understand that Russia had every right to do whatever it wanted within its own borders. The fact that everybody in their right mind (with the exception of FUX "News") knew that Russia would invade is immaterial. What you are suggesting is the same as punishing your kids before they do something wrong. "Marie, I know that you are going to get into some mischief tonight if you go out with your friends, so I'm going to ground you."
You, along with the majority of trump supporters are probably clamoring for a "no fly zone" or boots on the ground, aren't you?
When you're playing with a pig, you get dirty and the pig enjoys it. Better to avoid!I agree. That is why no one should play with you socialists and we don't.
Did CNN tell you this? Try asking Hoelsnd Security or Border Patrol agents. There view is much different than yours and fake news.How about asking your mom if condoms work? Evidently the one she used didn't.

It is Biden's war against Ukraine. Biden is financing Russia and won't put sanctions against Russia oil that finances the war. Only way to hurt Putin is to stop buying Russian oil. Congress is for it. Both republicans and democrats but Biden will not do it because he is loyal to Putin. Simple fact.

I'm surprised that you didn't blame Biden for not sending in troops or not imposing a no-fly zone.No troops but Biden should have put in a no fly zone to at least appear he is helping the Ukrainians. When any country puts thousands of troops into a neighboring country like Belarus to intimidate Ukraine it is an act of war. Biden should have started sanctions immediately starting with oil. Biden is a joke to the world. He is responsible for thousands of deaths. You are one of the few people in the world that thinks Russian shouldn't be penalized for this horrible invasion. You are one of the few people on the world that thinks we should support Russia oil. You and Biden can take pride that your support of Russia is helping Russia take Ukraine. You must be proud.
Canada shows his true colours. So blind is his hatred of Biden that he can't write one truthful paragraph. It is Putins War.

Truly if today Biden announced he was sanctioning Russian oil you would criticize him for driving petrol prices up.Biden in his first day in office made an executive action to cancel pipeline and stop Canada oil. Biden could do the same with Russia. Difference is Biden doesn't need Canada. He needs Putin.
Nuclear war is now possible since the USA hasn't got a president with a set of balls. Biden showing weakness to the world over the past 14 months will bring more danger to USA citizens not only from Russia but China, Iran and North Korea. USA is a joke to the world now and the dictators are licking their chops. Biden is a disaster and we knew it from the beginning. The people who voted for him have blood on their hands.

Biden not helping Ukraine was Biden way of showing support for Russia. His continuing support of Russia oil which is financing the invasion shows the world his loyalty to Putin. Biden is just Putin puppet and Putin keeps pulling the strings and Biden dances around the issues. I think most normal people agree that Biden voters can also take credit for the deaths of innocent people.
Half a wall doesn't work. Criminals and drug runners entering illegally are not looking for work. USA does not have a shortage of unskilled labor.Exactly correct. Where the wall is completed it works well. That has been proven and verified by border patrol. But a wall that they can just walk around doesn't work. Ironic that Pelosi and her fellow democrats have huge walls around their houses with cameras and other security devices. If walls don't work then why do they have them.
Few day before the invasion Psaki was asked during a presser why not implement the sanctions now. The answer was "It hasn't Happened yet".
That's how Biden deters!Deny and ignore the right decision. Typical democrat. Keep waiting to make the decision to sanction Russia oil until Russia defeats Ukraine. Biden will keep giving Russia $80 million a day to fund the war. Let's go Brandon.
President Joe Biden is without a doubt the greatest steward of the USA economy ever.
February jobs up 678,000, unemployment edged lower while wages were flat
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/04/jobs-report-february-2022.html?__source=androidappshare
BTW, how's Russia doing 'on Biden's watch'?
When a nuclear armed country imposes a no fly zone against another nuclear armed country in a state of war, at some point an aircraft of one side will have to be shot down. And not accidentally.
The USA might not need Russia's oil all that much but many other countries do. Imposing ironclad sanctions against Russia's oil in anything close to the kind of alliance unity required to matter would be doing undo and wildly counterproductive damage to our allies at the worst possible time. That is why Biden made an exception to it. Duh.
Zelensky is asking for everything, early and often. Good for him. His highest priority is the people of Ukraine, not the people of America.
Shocker! This current POTUS' priorities are the American people, our national security and our economy.
Yes, it sucks to be Ukraine right now. Maybe Zelensky should have been more interested in and applying for membership in some of these democratic Western alliances and done what was necessary to join them a lot sooner than when Putin started lining up troops at his border. Maybe his hesitation was that he fell for the Putin / Trump con that those alliances are yesterday's solutions, unnecessary, a waste of time and money, etc.
He sure is scrambling to join some now. Lesson learned I assume. Same for other countries.
It was not Biden or America's job to jump ahead of sovereign nations to initiate saber rattling sanctions against their enemies before they act stupidly beyond what we were already doing. That is, after the Repubs dropped the necessary Ukraine Military Aid ball entirely from their agenda as far back as 2016 and after Trump got busted by the Dems and properly Impeached for all manner of manipulation to Defund Military Aid To Ukraine on Putin's obvious demand.
Sure, Zelensky now wishes Biden had been running everything in, out and all around his country to keep its borders as safe from Russian incursion as every member country of NATO enjoys, to the years long outrage of Putin, Trump and their fellow Republicans.
Next time.
Exactly correct. Where the wall is completed it works well. That has been proven and verified by border patrol. But a wall that they can just walk around doesn't work. Ironic that Pelosi and her fellow democrats have huge walls around their houses with cameras and other security devices. If walls don't work then why do they have them.When the vast desert wasteland on the Southern border between the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico is as populated with neighbors, eye witnesses, street patrol cops and guards on both sides and all around the area as is the case in San Francisco and New York City, get back to us. Then we'll think about building the kinds of walls people have around their homes in those cities. LOL. Good god.

There has been quite an improvement in Americans' quality of life over these past few months compared to all the school and business closures and lockdowns Joe inherited from Trump's cowardice, lies and grossly negligent handling of the potential pandemic that converted it well and surely into the deadly Trump's Pandemic it became.
You don't get to this Morning In America by declaring the potential emerging Pandemic you left America bare ass naked against preventing or quickly responding to as a "Hoax" and spending almost that full first critical year mocking the known mitigation measures and trying to discourage anyone and everyone not to bother inventing or taking a vaccine for it.
You get there by following the science, as Biden did.
"CDC numbers show more than 90 percent of people in U.S. can ditch masks" https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/cdc-numbers-show-90-percent-people-us-can-ditch-masks-rcna18663.
