Thanks to sanctions, Russia has never made so much from its oil. Thanks to the morons in DC and their even more stupid hinterland stooges, Putin has plenty for his arms industry.

You must remember, Putin doesn’t pay hundreds of billions in bloated MIC profits each year. Russia will spend 1/20 what NATO spends on defense this year. Also, Russia will borrow NONE of their defense spending.

Since the Russians are in great shape perhaps you should, for once, consider America and the American taxpayer rather than doing your PR work for the warmongering DC oligarchs.

—”Thanks to sanctions, Russia has never made so much from its oil.”

Is that what they say over at Armstrong Economics?
Now that he is out of prison his bs is even worse.

In 2017, Russia exported almost nine million barrels of oil per day, which was the highest oil export volume in the last decade

In December 2023, Russia’s crude oil exports were 4,586.354 barrels per day, which was a decrease from the 4,780.354 barrels per day in December 2022

—”the warmongering DC oligarchs”

The Russian oligarchs have far more money and have much nicer yachts! But they all send their kids to US and Euro schools?

And homes in the US and Europe when possible.
