Russia pulls out of grain export deal over Crimea drone attack

"there are plenty of YouTube videos from the 1950s and maps available that shows just what will become of the US in an exchange with Russia...yet, I guess, they’re not capable of absorbing that information."

I think anyone with a few working neurons is capable of absorbing the info, they are just to involved in their 15 minutes of fame on Tic-Dic and other social media blah blah to pay attention. Or they've been instructed by their professors not to bother with so-called right wing propaganda.

That's why I'm encouraged with Musk's buyout of Twitter. If he can turn it into a true free speech platform, more of the Millennials and Gen.Z (as in zombie) may actually learn how the world works. My encouragement comes from Musk firing everyone from the CEO down to the leading programmers. Plus he's got his own IT people in to do an audit.

That will take some time going through all the code, algorithms, and what AI is in place. Of course many of hateful socialists will go elsewhere, but there are always those who will stay and just to see what this new platform is about. Some may learn, hopefully many.

What do you think Trump is going to do with his new Truth Social and should he accept Musk's re-invitation to Twitter. I think they can work side by side. Those with TDS will go elsewhere. Those who still working brain cells may check out the new Twitter. We'll see.

Kyiv was the birthplace of 3 nations: Muscowy, Ukraine and Belarus.

After the Mongol invasion, kievan Rus was no more.

One group in the west, the Belarusian, came under the Lithuanians. In the south they came under the Polish but mostly were freebooters.
In the north, Moscow was the tax collector for the great Khan.

Moscow’s Duke then became a grand Duke and then took over the Mongol khaganate.

In 1453 Ivan Grozny called himself Caesar of ALL the Russias. Note the plural.

In 1720 Peter declared himself emperor of all the Russias. Again plural.

Russia existed from 1991. Prior to that it was the USSR, prior to that, the empire of the RussiaS, prior to that the Tsardom of Muscowy, prior to that the Dukedom of Muscowy

“the old Russia back, which does include part of Ukraine.”

Tge old UK included the east coast of the USA down to Georgia.

I suppose you want to give it back to the uk?

And Florida, California, Texas, etc to Spain and Mexico?
