Putin is Russia

He still sent them that aid, you can't blame everything wrong that happens in the world on Trump

If right can blame everything on Obama, Trump is an easy punching bag.

[Andalusian girls]

'he still sent them that aid' is one way to state breaking federal law to block Congressionally-approved military aid from going to Ukraine in a desperate effort to win reelection until a whistleblower blew his shit up

and while Putin was almost assuredly going to invade barring anything but a massive American diplomatic intervention threatening war if Ukraine's sovereignty was violated, it's also an entirely justified reading that he was encouraged by this very public spat between us and Ukraine which put grave doubts on our commitment to their security. at the least it belies the absurdity of the notion that if only Trump had been in power Ukraine would have been protected.

Don't forget those emails!

I'm pretty sure they'd blame the Hindenburg Disaster on her emails.

This pretty much. I still think if we had had a competent president that wasn't BFF with Russia and had sent Ukraine weapons like we are now and rallied European support they might have thought twice about invading.

16-18 dead (BBC says 18, everywhere else saying 16) and 59 wounded. It is believed that ~1000 were in the mall when the missile struck. Rescuers are still climbing through the debris.

These fucking people infuriate me. The balls of attacking civilians and then wagging your nuclear dick around saying "lol better not react".

I believe he is pointing out that this is a proxy war between the greatest imperial power looking to increase their market share, thus being more guilty of that, and a declining imperial power with little recourse other than decline.

LONDON, June 28 (Reuters) - Russia's space agency published the coordinates of Western defence headquarters including the U.S. Pentagon and the venue of NATO's summit on Tuesday, saying Western satellite operators were working for Russia's enemy - Ukraine.

Oh shit Russia aint fucking around. They figured out how to use google maps!

The coordinates, expressed as degrees of latitude and longitude, are freely available.

I would have figured they were more of a map quest country.
