MOSCOW—Two Russian warships transited the Bosphorus en route to the Black Sea on Saturday and 15 smaller vessels completed a transfer to the sea as Moscow beefs up its naval presence at a time of tense relations with the West and Ukraine.
The reinforcement coincides with a huge build-up of Russian troops near Ukraine, something Moscow calls a temporary defensive exercise, and follows an escalation in fighting in eastern Ukraine between Russian-backed separatists and Ukrainian government forces.
A well placed strike on the Ukraine would obliterate all the evidence against Hunter Biden . . . so we know what he is rooting for.
I hadn’t looked at it from that angle, but it makes sense.
Let em’.
Tom Clancy would have made a great novel out of all this. Lots of intrigue and political maneuvering going on.
“Lots of intrigue and political maneuvering going on.”
I think the US is just reacting.
Russia will have all or any part of Ukraine they wish within a week after they want it.
However Russia will never have any influence over Western Globalist Mainstream Media False Flag, Fake and Propagandist News.
So, if Russia wants the Truth and Evidence in Ukraine to come out, a plodding slow squeeze of pro Russian groups is necessary to bring out the Snowden's and Assange's and motivate the Leftist Uke stooges to inform to save their lives because their Bribes to Biden won't.
Fortunately for Russia, Nationalism, plodding and bureaucracy fits with their Foreign Policy.
Uh, exactly what are they waiting for?
The world failed to take a stand against Hitler at first. Putin needs to be confined to Russia and not an inch more. Unfortunately we have Biden/Harris.
The Russians are helping fill void in the alternative media in the US. RT America has Dennis Miller, Scott Hughes (Tea Party News Network), Steve Malzberg (Newsmax, NTC talk shows) and Rick Sanchez (Fox News).
It might end up being the most reliable conservative TV news network other than OAN in the US.
The whole situations in Ukraine is one we helped create by fomenting the Ukraine revolution and encouraging Ukraine to pester Russia as much as it possibly can.
Trump would have done nada against Putin. He let Russia hack Solar Winds beginning in 2019 and did nothing. Manafort gave Kilimnik Trump campaign data to Russia. Why? Has Trump condemned him? Did he know? So far Biden has stood up against Putin far more than Trump did and that is sad. Stop gaslighting.
I guess Biden’s call for deescalation got misinterpreted in translation.
Yes, sort of.
RT America has Dennis Miller, Scott Hughes (Tea Party News Network), Steve Malzberg (Newsmax, NTC talk shows) and Rick Sanchez (Fox News).
Again yes, but under the RT Banner, and RT is way too sensationalizing and virtue signaling. When Russia is not involved, they default back Leftward.
Moscow Times and one of the Pravdas are even worse.
Most all the Russian Media is a failure in recognizing who and what the danger REALLY is, and reduce their credibility with a National Enquirer "literary" style.
Even after crawling out of Communism almost dead, and Eighty Years of experience with absolute Marxism, they don't know enough to shut the Marxists up within their own borders.
*** The world failed to take a stand against Hitler at first. Putin needs to be confined to Russia and not an inch more ***
Huh? Who liberated Auschwitz? If not for the Soviet Union, who would have stopped Hitler?
The US is burning. Our own military lied to and ignored a sitting CiC. But I am supposed to cheerlead a US/NATO intervention in the Ukraine, and worry about constraining Putin?
Putin, Lavrov, et al are the only adults in the room, IMHO.
Yep, and it's one of a series starting with Yugoslavia, Kosovo, and on to Georgia.
And our disgrace of a president is messing things up badly, while Putin laughs at our joke of a president.
Pig face bidet and his ho wont do anything. If Russia makes the move, which it looks as if they will, ol pig face will piss his pants and take a long weekend back in his basement.
With the joints chiefs that are in this administration, and the makeup of the “new” military, we would do well to simply stand our ground.
If I am the Rooskies, I would plant several warships off our east coast just to watch the dope ring that is this administrations reactions.
China will move on its own within the Pacific before this dope rings administration is over.
In March 2018, Trump approved the $47 million sale of 210 Javelin anti-tank missiles and 37 launchers to Ukraine. The missiles were the first lethal military assistance provided to Ukraine by the United States in its fight against Russian-supported separatists in eastern Ukraine since that fighting began in 2014.

The US isn’t reacting....it’s instigating......we put US military leaders with Ukraine soldiers firing near the airport this week and have been bringing troops into Ukraine fr several years now. Plus Ukraine’s Pres.told Crimean’s to get back under Kiev control in December. Things have escalated because Obama is running Ukraine and hiding behind Biden’s skirt..and Putin knows it very well. There’s no way Putins just going to let this stuff fly.
