It's amazing Newsweek can admit all this. Yet, we have fools here still pretending Biden's failed sanction war is working.

Unwilling to drop the hammer on India and China...sanctions fail. Imagine that.

[Tell It Right]

We last the "sanctions war" with Russia by the Dims blocking us from drill baby drill.

Whenever it comes to dealing with Russia and most all other countries, the #1 component is energy. If you want to deal strongly with Russia, come at it from a position of energy strength, not energy dependence.

As the Ukraine Project collapses, even rags like Newsweek feel the need to get real

It’s time to impose a total trade embargo on Russia. The West doesn’t buy anything from them and we don’t sell anything to them.

They also get to take back all of their ethnic Russian speaking colonists living in NATO/EU nations. Be gone!

Russia outsmarted Biden - hardly shocking news

U.S. oil extraction reached record levels in 2022, and all indications are that 2023 was even better.

Follow the plan, the plan is working. /s

Thanks for the link with the numbers.

Now compare that to the population growth (assuming numbers from the same statista.com site). https://www.statista.com/statistics/263762/total-population-of-the-united-states/

In 2022 we produced 759.9 million metric tons of oil. In year 2019 that was 751.2. An increase of 1.15%.

In 2022 the US population was 333.39 million. In year 2019 it was 328.55. An increase of 1.4%.

So our oil production growth hasn't kept up with population growth.

I’m truly curious, why is Nuland such a trigger for you and some of your cohort on FR?

The woman openly hates the EU. What’s not to like about that?

[Kazan]

Translation: You can't refute a single point made in the column.

All you and your ilk are doing is helping Biden cover up his responsibility for the failures of the proxy war and sanction war in Ukraine. At this point, any aid to Ukraine is primarily about delaying defeat in this proxy war until after 2024 election.

[Kazan]

It’s time to impose a total trade embargo on Russia.

You refuse to accept reality. Russia is now sanction proof. It's free of any dependency on the West.

An embargo won't work because 80% of the world wouldn't participate.

China and India are reselling Russian oil to Europe and making a nice profit doing so. They aren't going to stop doing that.

How Russia Won the Sanctions War With the West

Oh Dear, NooseWeak is changing the Narrative!

I suggest we put Zeepers on Suicide Watch.

And open classes on (Free) Market Economics.

I’m truly curious, why is Nuland such a trigger for you and some of your cohort on FR?

Nuland and Anthony Fauci are literally responsible for the deaths of millions worldwide.

Why wouldn't anyone with a conscience despise either of them?

[Navy Patriot]

Give it up, we know you are Nuland.

[kiryandil]

She obviously doesn’t know The Rest Of The Story...

[Darksheare]

Why do you believe she’s so pure and just simply because of one opinion she supposedly holds on the EU?
You DO know that she was in tight with Obama, right?

[Bobbyvotes]

That won’t make much difference. Russia has more natural resources than North America. Most of vast Siberia with multiple time zones remains largely un-exploited. Growing economies in South & East Asia are hungry for Russian natural resources. Our leader is Biden! Buff said.
