The US isn't ruined lol. Biden may be flawed, but at least we don't have AOC. America will be fine. People need to understand that the worst on the progressive left are a small minority. Everybody is tired of them, including many good people on the left. Not just Tulsi. There's Bill Maher, even that annoying Jon Stewart, people with massive audiences Sorry friend but we're not fine as long as Biden and Harris are in office. I seriously think they're on a mission to f*ck this country over as much as they can and still have the balls to blame it on Trump (which the MSM is now doing). Lol we'll be alright. DeSantis is coming i hope so ! this guys is awesome ! he will make america great again like trump did !

Is it any coincidence that bleeding heart blue states like New York and California are beginning to lift COVID tyranny during an election year?

WWIII is not likely, but it's Cold War Pt. II for sure. What this shows is that it's about time Western European countries start to increase their military budget and start recruiting asap. Reinstating conscription will be necessary for countries like Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. We seriously need to start building strong armies again. We've been creating generations of weaklings for decades now and we should put an end to that. Not because we should go to war immediately, but because Western European countries need to show that they can regain their long lost testicles. Right now Western Europe is seen as weak and we all know what happens in the animal kingdom when a bigger and badder species sees you as weak: you're prey. Same here pal when proper pronouns are more important and lowering the standards of the physical exams to appeal for more "diversity." It absolutely irritates me. If I'm not mistaken the American taxpayer invests a ton of money in foreign military aid and what do our Western European leaders do with all those finances? Zero, zip, zilch, nada. It's a disgrace. If a war on European soil isn't a serious wake up call I don't know what is. The days that young healthy guys spend their time and energy on producing TikTok dancing videos should be over and done with. Conscription, bigger military budgets, compulsory physical activity (weightlifting, martial arts, cardio), more activity on the shooting range...etc...should all be on the menu instead.

What we're witnessing is seeing what might be the most evil world leader since Hitler at work here. This guy has gone completely off the rails. Absolutely terrifying times to live through. We had the Balkan war with Milosevic which was also brutal, but this is a nuclear giant. This will be another Chechnya!

Agreed and that's why I applauded Trump for pulling out from a lot of these agreements with our European allies because they weren't pulling their weight monetarily. We shouldn't have to foot the bill for this independently.

President Vladimir Putin has ordered Russian nuclear deterrent forces on alert amid tensions with the West over Ukraine. this is getting scary more and more but right now there are talks about cease fire in belarus Nothing to worry about Meyer. We've got the strong and cognitive Brandon, I mean, Biden in office. Trust me, Putin's shaking in his boots right now.

Two Russian oligarchs call for end of Ukraine invasion
Mikhail Fridman speaks to reporters
More now on the news that the Russian oligarch and owner of Chelsea FC, Roman Abramovich, has been asked by the Ukrainian government to help find a "peaceful solution" to the war in Ukraine.
Abramovich's move is a significant intervention from a member of Russia's elite. We have been keeping an eye on other oligarchs and what they have to say.
The Financial Times revealed on Sunday that Mikhail Fridman, the founder of one of Russia's largest private financial institutions, Alpha Bank, wrote to London-based staff of his private equity company LetterOne that "war can never be the answer".
Fridman, who is worth an estimated $11.7bn (£8.7bn), was born in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv and said: "I'm deeply attached to Ukrainian and Russian peoples and see the current conflict as a tragedy for them both."
Meanwhile, Oleg Deripaska, who runs the aluminium giant Rusal, took to social media to call for negotiations.
Deripaska, who has amassed a fortune of around $4bn (£2.9bn) and was once described as "Putin's favourite industrialist", wrote on Twitter that "peace is the priority".

Even historically neutral Switzerland is adopting the EU's sanctions against Russia, President Ignazio Cassis announced Monday. The country, which is a major center for wealthy Russian oligarchs, said it's freezing the assets of certain individuals "with immediate effect."
Among the high-profile names were close Putin allies Igor Sechin, head of state oil giant Rosneft, and Nikolay Tokarev, boss of pipeline mammoth Transneft.
Three men ranked within Russia's 10 top richest by Forbes were also added: metals magnate Alexei Mordashov, tycoon Alisher Usmanov, and businessman and Putin friend Gennady Timchenko.
