What the hell is Putin supposed to do? The coup started the whole damn thing.

Now this illegitimate Russian hating government is using their ill gained power to kill their own ethnic Russians that they hate with a passion.

The appointment of a totally incompetent John Kerry as Secretary of State is grounds for impeachment -—as though there were no other grounds.
