"The Biden administration has formally determined that Russia has committed crimes against humanity during the war in Ukraine, Vice President Kamala Harris said in her speech at the Munich Security Conference on Saturday.

"Driving the news: The Biden administration has already accused Russia of committing war crimes in Ukraine. But it's the first time the U.S. has formally concluded that Russian forces are committing crimes against humanity. Secretary of State Tony Blinken said the U.S. reserves such "determinations for the most egregious crimes."

"The U.S. determination comes just days before the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine..."

This is worth listening to from Bill Browder:

Why Vladimir Putin is a ‘psychopath’

[Trumpisourlastchance]

They’ve killed at least 50 times less civilians than we have in Iraq & Libya, so what does that entail?

[bert]

Aiding and abetting Putin is war criminality

[bert]

That is an outright lie

[SaxxonWoods]

Boring.

[escapefromboston]

Yeah I heard the Russians used the wrong pronouns when addressing a proud trans woman

[ClearCase_guy]

Does anyone take the US seriously? We just say stuff.

“Who gives a shiite” is all I can think of when see asinine articles like this one. There is only real rule of war - Don’t lose.

I still would like to see these woke dumb asses serve the subpoena in person.

[McGruff]

Yeah, use of chemical weapons is a war crime.

“Putin cut off my supply of human trafficked little girls to sniff ‘n snuff. That’s criminal in my book, c’mon man!” ~ gropey

[delchiante]

This Banana Republic has real monkeys installed as its leaders..

[struggle]

Wait, are people listening to Bill Browder now? My russiagate? Mr biggest foreign investor in Russia?

The Left's Core Strategy #1: “Pick the target and polarize it." *via Rules for Radicals

The Left's Core Strategy #2: Scream accusations of racism (or racist attacks) at anything you don't like or which slows your agenda. *Sexism, "homophobia", etc. are also opportunities.

The Left's Core Strategy #3: Intensely attack Republicans for doing what you are doing.

The Left's Core Strategy #4: Attack Republicans with shallow insults in an effort to negatively influence the public's view of their character. Do not attempt to explain the insults. Think drive-by shooter.

The Left's Core Strategy #5: When all else fails, censor speech and/or deploy violence.

Repeat

Apparently the Left uses these strategies against anyone they consider an enemy. Biden cuts the pipeline and goes on the offense (projecting) when he's cornered. He's a madman.

Civilian deaths in Iraq is estimated at 26k; Ukraine is 7k.

We are still bombing in Syria and have killed about 1.4k people there.

We USED to be the good guys.

Our troops enlist, fight, suffer, and die because they are good guys.

Our ruling class are not. They are just as depraved as Putin.

That evil goblin Fauci helped create COVID. That was a crime against humanity.

[Codeflier]

The disconnect is astonishing. Now the door is wide open for the UN to accuse us of crimes against humanity, for countless actions, and we will have no leg to stand on after going this route. If Russia’s Invasion is a crime against humanity, then what he have done in Iraq is ten times worse, as well as the misery caused by our actions in Yemen and Libya.

Time for public hearing with both sides presenting evidence
But we know why the US has not let that happen, hmm.

[silverleaf]

Bill Browder?
Accusing Putin of “psychopathy”?

That’s irony.

[Bob434]

Oooo not good. Whpever accused russia is now in deep doo doo- Now Russia is gonna get pissed and send over a $12 dollar balloon.

Bill Browder is OK. Though just a few years ago I was not anti-Putin. And I thought Browder was a kook.

As soon as Putin invaded Ukraine last year, I changed 180 degrees to anti-Putin. And anti-Russian. The Ukrainians are the righteous in this war. And same with NATO and the USA, as we supply the Ukrainian army.
