“EVERYTHING changes in 4 weeks; this is Putin’s calm before the storm | Redacted with Clayton Morris
The ground in Ukraine will likely freeze in the next 4-7 weeks. When that happens, we will see everything change in Ukraine.”

So are you saying you didn’t have a brain or you don’t have one?

After all, you, Kazan did write -
