President Kamala will stand up to Putin, I’m certain. She brings new hope, and change.
The people are going to have to overthrow him. Otherwise Trump takes office and invades using illegals. Dump off a few thou.
Lovely, neocons turned him into an enemy determined to screw with us all he can.

Putin’s contingent of yes men on Free Republic will be thrilled to hear that.
Not surprising , It’s in Putin’s interest to create havoc and instability in Central/South America as we basically are completely holding Ukraine together through financial and military assistance.
Perhaps if we would have treated Russia as a potential friend since the mid-90s (Trump’s was an exception) and not an enemy they would be helping us now.

Camel A. HairAss and Puti agree the commie won.
Russia, Russia, Russia!
Strangely enough, Kamala is defending Maduro's victory. Does that make her and Putin friends now? Cognitive dissonance...activate!
Deep State? Ohhh..deepening.
“ Putin’s contingent of yes men on Free Republic will be thrilled to hear that.”
Putin’s contingent of yes men = those against sending $ to Ukraine
Kamala, Maduro AND Putin, they of course all hate America being great again.
That’s right.
Exactly
Putin is just supporting modern “democracy” like we have here in the US.
See my tagline.
Thought he trash-talked manuro last time.
Everybody knows that Catherine the Great conquered Venezuela, so that country forever belongs to Russia.
