You could try for some high heel leather boots instead of such a virtue signaling thing like the flag? I mean geese... these pro war people like rainbow flags, booty sex and ignorance of how they are being robbed blind by this utterly corrupt Ukrainian government with its hand in the Bidens pockets.
Big surprise. Even Intel has had enough and threw the big guy overboard.
;-P Bless you and yours. Humor is one of Gods gifts to us.
All of the members of the one battalion that survived defected to the Uke side saying that they too wanted to put on high heels and perform gay dancing with the hero Zelenskyyyyyyyy™! (He's a hero for all of us! Take that Putin!!!!)
Meanwhile, all over the world where vile, leftist/globalist/RINO filth operate, massive celebrations broke out over the Great Victory™. Now, their money laundering operations are safe and sound!
Слава пенісоїду Зеленському!!! Нехай і далі наповнює гаманці всіх елітних покидьків на Заході!!!
GFY “ Good for you
“The Wagner group is dangerous beyond belief. Underestimate that group at your own peril.”
You are absolutely correct. Wagner group must never be underestimated.
Perhaps, your ‘Friend’ is mocking you with his style of humor at your own expense: detriment or disadvantage.
Advice: ‘You continue to do you not take everything to be true that is told to you.’ This illustrates the importance and necessity of personal independent research... and, of course being on Free Republic! :)

NEEDED CORRECTION: U.S. Mexican Border disrespected by Russian citizens.
“In Search of a Better Life, Thousands of Russians Are Crossing the Mexican Border to America: Unscrupulous middlemen charge asylum seekers hefty fees to embark on the treacherous journey.”
In the meantime, idiots like yourself say it's okay to ignore their responsibilities at home but must save a foreign country.
I will fight you at every turn, & I regard you as traitors to this nation. I will not be alone either.
“The enemy continues to “evacuate” residents of the temporarily occupied settlements, this time they decided to deport residents of Enerhodar.”
Your excerpt is out o context:
“The enemy continues to “evacuate” residents of the temporarily occupied settlements, this time they decided to deport residents of Enerhodar.
The Russians deliberately initiate humanitarian crises in the temporarily occupied territories, removing state institutions from there, closing hospitals and pharmacies in order to make the life of the locals unbearable.
At the same time, the residents are ideologically pumped about the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and “further destruction and repression”. Instead, residents are offered to leave and promised monetary compensation.
In fact, the Russians AIM to change the demographic composition of the population, and create a propaganda picture of residents “fleeing” from Ukraine.
Thus, now the occupiers are preparing for the “evacuation” from Enerhodar. For this purpose, the local nuclear power plant, which was seized by the Russians, should prepare buses. People are planned to be taken to Dzhankoy (Crimea). At the beginning, the “evacuation” is voluntary, but usually later the occupiers practice forced eviction.
It should be noted that at the same time the RUSSIANS CLOSED the checkpoint in Vasylivka (Zaporizhzhia region), from where the RESIDENTS of the temporary occupied territories were leaving FOR the government-controlled territories of Ukraine.
THIS SHOWS that RUSSIANS ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE FATE OF THE [UKRAINIAN] PEOPLE. The main thing for the ENEMY is to ENSUE THE DEPORTATION of Ukrainians,” the statement reads. Source: https://censor.net/en/n3389480

Try this: Get to know yourself and what you need to thrive. Take personal responsibility for identifying and honoring the visions, dreams, and goals you have for your life. Make a commitment to dedicate time and energy to the things that are important to you.
These thoughts were meant to be for a separate comment directed to help those Freepers ‘looking for a life.’

Please don’t chastise him.
He has already acknowledged a low IQ. This is my rationale to ‘ghost’ 867V309: to limit his posting embarrassment.
“Irrelevant & immaterial, as the same affect as an armed invasion is the result. Difference is, this adversely affects American citizens.”
I agree with you lack of Mexican border control. Mexican president thanks Biden: “You, president Biden, you are the first president of the United States in a very long time that has not built, not even one meter of wall. And that, we thank you for that, sir,” said López Obrador.
That is the president of Mexico thanking Joe Biden for putting America last. It would be nice if this was sarcasm, but sadly, it is not. López Obrador is genuinely grateful that Biden has betrayed his Constitutional oath and the American people to allow millions of illegal aliens to rush across the border.”
Biden policy of open-Mexican border is a disaster.
However, ignoring the Russian Ukraine Invasion in lieu of Mexican border invasion would be a considered as a fallacy of relevance which an allegation of wrongdoing is countered with a similar allegation.
Or, would be the antithesis of two wrongs making a right.
We are 31.5 trillion in debt and that is growing by leaps & bounds, In addition, we have well over 100 trillion in unfunded liabilities with Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, interest payments on debt etc.
Illegal immigration costs the American taxpayers roughly 250 billion per year, and those costs keep growing as well. Do you honestly believe that we can print our way out of our money woes, or are you a realist who understands that we are rapidly approaching a point of dire consequences that threatens us, and will have devastating impacts across the world?
If you are a realist, then you have to agree that bankrolling a proxy war in Ukraine is committing national suicide.
Zelenskyy has shown that he is no better than Putin. Zelenskyy has chosen to sell out his citizens to host a proxy war in his nation, and place his citizens in a war zone. Zelenskyy has prohibited all opposition political parties, along with muzzling the press from talking against his leadership. Most importantly, he could have avoided a Russian invasion by simply implementing the 2 Minsk Agreements they had signed with no intention of honoring. His country would not be a war zone that is being destroyed, and his people being killed.. In other words, all of this drama could have been avoided by stopping the aggression against their Russian speaking citizens.
Would you support a leader of this nation targeting & attacking non English speaking citizens? Note that I am talking about citizens, not those here illegally.
Hopefully your answer is no, yet you refuse to even acknowledge that fact in Ukraine.
But back to money. Do you have children & grandchildren? Because you are putting those family members further in debt by supporting this conflict. When the fighting ends, who do you think will get the bill to rebuild Ukraine, while our nation continues to crumble. Is that what you want to do with your loved ones, saddle them with debt & a crumbling nation? I certainly do not want that for my children & grandchildren. I even have great grandchildren, and I'm sorry, but this country is in no position to help the world.
I almost feel like Zelenskyy is blackmailing this nation, by specifically blackmailing Biden, because Zelenskyy has the goods on Biden's corruption. So, whether you understand it or not, you are providing cover for Biden's corruption. Shame on you and the rest of you cheerleaders. Want to really help Ukraine? Stop funding the war and watch them make the tough choice of coming to the peace negotiation table. They may lose some land mass, but at least they won't lose even more. They will save citizens, and can start the process of rebuilding their nation.
1- Putin’s Planning for Retirement, Has Eyes on 3 Successors: Ex-Speechwriter
By Jon Jackson

Russian President Vladimir Putin could opt for retirement and choose a hand-picked successor rather than run in the next election, according to a former speechwriter for the leader.
Abbas Gallyamov, a political analyst who once worked as a speechwriter for Putin, made the claims about his ex-boss during an interview on the Khodorkovsky Live YouTube channel.
Due to the growing unpopularity of the war, Gallyamov said Putin could face a greater challenge at the polls during the next election in 2024. An option for the leader could be to “rig the elections,” but that could be “too big of a risk” due to a growing revolutionary mindset within Russia, Gallyamov said.
Instead, Gallyamov feels Putin could pick his heir and retire. Gallyamov said the leading choices of who Putin would trust as his successor would be Sergei Sobyanin, the mayor of Moscow, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin or his Deputy Chief of Staff Dmitry Kozak.
Gallyamov said that retirement would allow Putin to spend the rest of his years in a palace in the Black Sea resort town Gelendzhik while holding the title of senator-for-life. (Current Russian laws allow former presidents to take the permanent senator distinction.)
The political analyst also said there’s an increasing sense among Russian officials that Putin is no longer viewed as the “guarantor of stability” that he once was, and people in Putin’s circle are not happy about the power of Yevgeny Prigozhin and his Wagner Group mercenaries.
Gallyamov said these Putin allies fear Prigozhin and his sledgehammer. The reference to the tool comes after an unverified video surfaced in November that allegedly showed a former Wagner mercenary being executed with a sledgehammer.
Reuters reported that Prigozhin commented about the video on Telegram by saying the man had “betrayed his people.”
Despite Gallyamov’s comments about Putin possibly retiring, George Mason University Schar School of Policy and Government professor Mark N. Katz told Newsweek that he doesn’t “think Putin trusts anyone enough” to hand over the reins.
“I don’t think he would even switch places as he did with [former Russian President Dmitry] Medvedev in 2008 to 2012,” Katz said. “But I imagine there are several people who hope to succeed him. It might be easier to keep them under control if they can all still hope to get the nod from Putin, while actually giving someone the nod could unleash a power struggle.”
2-Russian tank repairmen in the Belgorod region have reportedly blown up a T-72 tank they were repairing, causing damage to two other tanks.
On Thursday evening, a fire broke out at a tank repair base in Belgorod, located near Russia’s border with Ukraine, according to Baza, a Russian Telegram channel that regularly posts information about security issues within the country.
The fire, which reportedly started due to a violation of fire safety during repairs, caused ammunition to detonate, destroying one tank and damaging two others nearby.
Firefighters arrived at the scene two hours after the fire, and it was extinguished in half an hour. There were no reported casualties, said Baza.
The T-72 tank has played a key role in the Russian military throughout the conflict that began when Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded neighboring Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine publishes on its Facebook page Ukrainian estimates of the total losses Russia has faced since the invasion began. It estimates that so far, Russia has lost a total of 3,098 tanks in the conflict.
Multiple videos have circulated on social media in recent months which appear to show Russia taking out its Soviet-era tanks from storage to be deployed in the Ukraine war.
In September, Anton Gerashchenko, adviser to Ukraine’s minister of internal affairs, shared a clip on his Twitter page that appears to show multiple 50-year-old T-62 tanks lined up on railway tracks in Russia.
“Old Soviet tanks taken out of conservation by Russia - with no protection against modern weapons,” the adviser to the Ukrainian government tweeted. “And new Russian conscripts (also with no protection against modern weapons and a modern army - we’ve seen what they fight in). Perfect combination, doomed for success, I would say.”
The British Ministry of Defense said as far back as May that Russia had moved 50-year-old T-62 tanks from “deep storage” to be deployed for use by its Southern Grouping of Forces (SGF), and that such vehicles are likely to be “particularly vulnerable” to anti-tank weapons.
The T-72 main battle tanks replaced the T-62 units, which were in production in the Soviet Union from 1961 to 1973.
Russia rarely releases figures on losses of personnel and equipment. So far, the Kremlin has confirmed the deaths of fewer than 6,000 troops and fewer than 4,000 additional fighters drawn from Russia’s so-called “people’s republics” in Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts.
“I got you thinking about our border.”
