Putin ended his message to Maduro: "Remember that you are always a welcome guest on Russian soil."

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.

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.

Just one article that more or less says we could have had a stronger relationship with Russia:

And another
https://outrider.org/nuclear-weapons/articles/how-us-lost-russia-and-how-we-can-restore-relations

Of course that’s history now as they say.

Maduro steals another election. Zelensky cancels an election so he can remain in power, this after imprisoning opposition leaders and banning opposition parties.

Where is NO difference, Marcus.

"President Kamala will stand up to Putin, I’m certain. She brings new hope, and change."

Strangely enough, Kamala is defending Maduro's victory. Does that make her and Putin friends now? Cognitive dissonance...activate!

She also unburdens us from old burdens that were burdensome.

Putin is just supporting modern “democracy” like we have here in the US.

See my tagline.

Everybody knows that Catherine the Great conquered Venezuela, so that country forever belongs to Russia.
