 The price of 'freedom' at the pump. That's a good one!!! Here in Canada whenever you guys get a hurricane in Texas our gus prices go up. I don't get it, Canada has enough oil in Alberta. Next thing you know the price of milk is gonna go up because of the cow disease in Sweden. 

It's called price gauging. All these major corporations have record profits year after year.

military action isn't a real option but there has to be some cost for Putin's actions. Germany killing the Nord Stream 2 project is a good start. 

I am glad you brought it up. Nord Stream 2. Russian pipe line to Europe for those who did not know. Germans are getting n gas at $275 and resales to the rest of EU, while the rest of the Europe at $1000 plus up to $2000. What benifits it does to US? US will supply Europe with an over priced liquid gas. While Russians divert it sells to Asia 'Power of Siberia' is almost finished(2ed pipeline) major one.     This winter US trade ships loaded with natural gas, that were supposed to go to Europe had been diverted to Asia only because the price of n gas that is almost doubled in price(Google that) Asians with deeper pockets screwed EU. Experts are saying that if the price N gas go up above $2000 then 20%+ of EU factories will have to close. At anytime Russians can announce that they had to shot down a pipe for whatever repairs. Europe is gonna get fucked. Energy crisis meeting in Qutar ruled that there is no alternative supplier that can meet demands.                                                  At the end of the day  . Victos US seling n gas to Europe at whatever price they want. If any other country try to get it from Russia, US will call them as axis of eval and the president of the country is a radical dictator.  Who knows on what exactly is going on behind closed doors. At the end of the day the EU is the one who is gonna get fucked. EU is trying to sit on bouth chairs at the same time. It does not work that way. EU have had become useless to the world economy.    No wonder Britain left.       Watch out for the energy crisis in 2023.

The russian oil pipeline to europe would be the big dagger if the russians shut it down. Most european countries have fairly substantial reserves of gas, if the pipeline shut off they would run out quick. As far as the US sanctions go - we are almost completely dependent on russia for all kinds of minerals, including rare earths that we cant get anywhere else in quantity - and that's mostly china.  if the russians retaliate(and why wouldn't they) we will suffer as much as they will.

Watching the CNN and MSNBC warmongering is comical.

Anything to make Joe look like a hero...

Midterm game plan.

They can’t speak on all of his destructive policies.

Too much damage has been done, and his poll numbers are in the sewer.

So deflect.

I watched both NBC nightly news tonight and ABC world news tonight.  Gas inflation got 30 seconds on each network.  The next story was the Ahmaud Arbery trial update and how the defendants were all convicted again.  That story is old but it was worthy of 3x the air time of what’s going on right now to make everybody’s life worse.  The media always does this.  Election year….let’s create racial stories.  Midterms and our president is viewed as the worst in history already….lets focus on race again.  I believe everybody has had enough and there’s no narrative they can try at this point to save this administration.

I wish there was more that I could do to help the many young Ukrainian women fleeing the hordes of violent Russian soldiers.

Republicon Mike Pompeo being shown all over RT lavishing praise on mega maniac Putin. 

Republicon Scum!

Many Republicons like yourself wish they could do differently.  But the default is to follow the leaders and Fox News. The Republicons are all about political opportunity and beating the democrats. They have zero solutions.  They're actually praising Putin and canceling books. It's tragic!

Anyone parroting Russian propaganda and pulling for a person like Putin is no "Patriot" 

Seriously is there anything MORE un-American?  Putin isn't the victim here and he is far from a great human being. 

Its just sickening to see 

 

Wrong, believe nothing the mainstream media and US intelligence say - nothing.  Putin is what he is - which is no threat to us.

Anyway another day with no real invasion...but it's close...oh so close. here's the daily armored column moving ever closer video.
