“Get rid of it”. Such highly technical language from the IntelligencePolice on the left.

Is that process of “getting rid of it” accompanied by any bright flashes of light and bending trees/smoldering trees?

“Get rid of” means Ivan will come pick it up and take it back home where it came from.

Mix it with low enriched uranium and use it as reactor fuel. We have been doing it for years under the Nunn-Lugar agreement with the former Soviet states.

Wondering once again why we think disarming Ukraine is a step in the right direction.
