Politicians in the United States and Canada are taking steps to remove Russian products, including vodka, from store shelves as Russia continues its military offensive against Ukraine.

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) took to Twitter Saturday to announce that he has signed an executive order instructing the state’s wine and liquor outlets “to begin removing Russian-made and Russian-branded spirits from our liquor and wine outlets until further notice.”

No more Strelnokoff Vodka

All of that vodka that has already been bought and paid for? Yeah, that will teach them!

Right? Any money a Russian company would receive for orders/deliveries was paid to them long ago.

This is stupid.

[proust]

Yay I love symbolism over substance.

This is silly for sure but this is another solid data point that Putinist Russia is radioactive. The vote in the UN on monday is going to be about 188-3 against Russia. CCP and Iran will probably abstain. I am not joking.

[real saxophonist]

Well, I'd like to find some Kalasnikov Vodka:

[lodi90]

We got plenty of substance today. A massive wave of modern armaments is headed to Ukrainian defenders.

[BipolarBob]

No more Stoli blueberry? Send me to the Russian front then.

[HIDEK6]

Don’t mess with my Stoli!

[TigersEye]

Useless virtue signalling by useless politicians.

[Terry L Smith]

what about those sinful babooska nesting dolld?

[9YearLurker]

So is it renamed Freedom Vodka now?

[RetiredTexasVet]

Slow Joe and his cronies showing leadership by stupid.

[wac3rd]

The vagina-inspired capitulation is insane. The woke infection is everywhere.

Greenie
Tranny
Jab
BLM

It is a successful brainwashing via education and the media of many Americans.

ROTFLMFAO!!!
I’m sure Vlad is sooooo sad about that.....

[LegendHasIt]

What a bunch of virtue signaling morons. (Including Abbot In Texas)

If Biden hadn’t already pseudo-banned Wolf and Tula ammunition sales, and there wasn’t a shortage anyway, no doubt these idjits would be telling storekeepers that they can’t sell Russian ammo either.

And can Russian Dressing be far behind?. And the Russian Tea Room in NYC must be renamed too.

And the word “Hurrying” must be substituted for “Rushing” to avoid offending these morons.

How does that work? I'd assume those Russian-made and Russian-branded spirits were paid for by someone at wholesale prices. Is the state going to cover that cost?

[Reagan80]

It works because those politicos are going to drink all that Stoli for free.

[Blood of Tyrants]

This does nothing to Russia since they were paid for their vodka months ago. It was as silly as banning hamburger in WWI because their is a city called Hamburg.

[lightman]

Stupid stunt

Like renaming sauerkraut "victory cabbage" during WWI.

[kiryandil]

They already paid for it, Sununutard.
