Nearly two years ago The Washington Post published a piece on “Putin’s dangerous campaign to rehabilitate Stalin.” It pointed out that Stalin and Putin both murdered political opponents. Of course, Putin’s political killings have not been as numerous as Stalin’s; but why would Putin rehabilitate a communist mass murderer like Stalin? Perhaps because Stalin was Russia’s “great” leader during World War II. Perhaps Putin aspires to be such a leader himself. Essayist Simona Pipko, who met Stalin many years ago, once observed that Putin imitates Stalin’s mannerisms. And now, having studied Putin’s State of the Nation Address (which was delivered three years ago last month), it seems that Putin has Stalin’s flare for instilling fear (and perhaps his taste for killing on a grander scale; please see “How Many People Did Joseph Stalin Kill?”

Ping!
Oh come on. The only reason the Left hates Putin is because he’s not a communist like Stalin.
Sorry. Putin is not my concern. I do not see Russia as a threat to us. Not even a threat to Europe. Putin is a distraction.
The US government is a clear and present danger to me. I need no other entanglements.
“Things that make you go hmmmm.”
Hmm, why did you post this irrelevant crap?
The checkmate I see is the citizens of this country by both parties cheating out our choice for President to stop him from securing the borders and restoring the rule of law.
Our country has been stolen from US.
I’m just not that worried about Russia, despite their best efforts.
True. Russia’s GDP is smaller than Texas. Do not give your adversaries more power than they actually have.
It’s the left that’s trying to revive Stalin. And they’re doin’ a damned good job of it, too...
No sale.
Our war is here.
Back when Russia was run by godless communist genocidal maniacs, the Left loved them. Now that it’s perceived that they are now a Christian country, the Left loathes Russia.
Ditto!
I've mostly lost touch with her since she moved to the west coast of Florida. She is a Soviet emigre. Already back in the Clinton administration she would lament that Soviet fascism followed her here to the United States.

"Let's put the long-horned anti-Leninists of Texas in their place.......So long, Lone Star State....Hahahahahaha....You look like a tiny star, set against the vast, colossal sky of Mother Russia!"
It does matter when Biden and his handlers have stupid ideas like cutting our nuclear weapons another 50%, and ending weapons systems that work.
BTW Putin knows what is going on, he wants to see the destruction of America, and Russia gave Hunter at least $4 million (its probably a lot more). In this it doesn’t matter if Putin is a Communist or not, he is obviously going to make use of the infiltration the USSR achieved in academia and politics in the 60’s-80’s, and the damage from it. In fact many of Russia’s current spies still herald from that time.
Did somebody mention Old Red Joe?
Funny! Is that a Second City skit?

JR Nyquist! Now that is a blast from the past.
It is the Washington Post. What they said has no credibility.
