Seth takes a closer look at Trump praising Vladimir Putin’s “savvy” and “genius” amid U.S. warnings of an imminent full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine as Republicans and right-wing pundits claimed President Biden is showing weakness.
This Russian owned yacht named “Ragnar”, was ransacked by the Norwegian Coast Guard, Police and Customs earlier today.
It’s owned by former KGB officier Vladimir Strzhalkovsky ; who is an old friend of Vladimir Putin.

Maria Bartiromo said on Fox Business that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine was concocted by White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan to distract from Hillary Clinton’s campaign spying on Donald Trump.

Dan Pfeiffer: “The Republican message on Ukraine is all over the map. They are calling Biden weak, simultaneously claiming his sanctions won’t do enough or will do too much, arguing he is unfocused or is too focused on Putin.”“This Republican incoherence is not by design. In some cases, it reflects legitimate differences in the party (i.e. pro-fascist v. fascist-curious), but it’s mostly a bunch of dumb people saying whatever dumb thing first pops into their pea brains. However, the strategic confusion ends up being a feature, not a bug. Republicans are — somewhat inadvertently — setting up a ‘heads we win, tails you lose’ dynamic on the Ukrainian issue. They want to attack Biden for being weak and attack him if sanctions lead to higher gas prices or other disruptions to American life.

Biden tells the oil companies to fuck off with the price gouging.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said that President Biden should increase sanctions against Russia “all the way up” after Moscow began a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine, The Hill reports.Said McConnell: “Ratchet the sanctions all the way up. Don’t hold any back Every single available tough sanction should be employed and should be employed now.”

There have been a number of lists of suggested groups for donations that have been posted in social media.
As usual, it is often difficult to determine whether the poster is legitimate or not. And, even if legitimate, how much vetting the poster did on the groups that they are suggesting.
My thought would be, in uncertain times, to work through a known and trusted group. Red Cross certainly could be one option.
If you do find a good set of groups, please share with the rest of us! (Not much help, know.)

So, no Swift cutoff yet? I understand why _strategically_, they don’t want to cutoff Russia from SWIFT, even for something as blatant as an offensive war against a neighbor with ZERO justification, based on outright lies.
You get a lot of power by controlling SWIFT, but if you use your power often enough, people will create another system for international bank messaging, which amongst others Russia and China are trying to do, and then you have _far_ less power.
President Biden on SWIFT: “The sanctions that we’ve proposed on all their banks are of equal consequence, maybe more consequence, than SWIFT, number one. Number two, it is always an option, but right now, that’s not the position that the rest of Europe wishes to take.”

If the White House Press Corps is near the top of their profession, I have questions.
Timothy Snyder, in the ‘Petryshyn Memorial Lecture” (Thank you to the Lizard who recommended it here!) notes that what seems to threaten Putin the most about Ukraine isn’t NATO, it’s the European Union. The idea that a former Soviet State could integrate with the West and become a prosperous democracy undermines his whole kleptocratic regime.
Snyder also notes that the USSR dissolved in a very unusual way for Imperial systems. Most empires dissolve from the periphery inward. In the case of the USSR, it dissolved from the center. Russia decided that the rest of the empire was too expensive and no longer wanted to maintain it.
It seems to me that the economic dis-integration with the west will suit Putin and the oligarchs who are insulated and isolated. The rest of the Russian population is screwed, though.

re: #125 wrenchwench
I quit trying to figure out what happened pretty quickly. Started hoping for few injuries.
Take with a grain of salt, but an eyewitness estimates that the two racing vehicles, a white Mustang and a blue Mustang, we’re doing 110 mph when the white Mustang hit the bus. (The speed limit on that section of Gibson is 40 mph.) The blue vehicle fled the scene. Two students required leg and pelvic surgery due to injuries. Seven students were transported to hospitals in total for examination. The driver of the white Mustang, Mario Perez, 49, was also transported to the hospital and underwent surgery for a broken femur.
It’s hard to to keep track, but according to the GOP the war in Ukraine was orchestrated by one or more of the following:
1. Hilary Clinton
2. Hunter Biden
3. Eminem & Dr. Dre
4. Three gay guys named Dave.
5. Ben & Jerry’s
6. Barack Obama
7. Illegal immigrants

In case that didn’t sink in, it needs to be repeated. We are calling another human being a crime.

No sarcasm. The core premise of conservatism is that your body isn’t your own: it belongs to God, but with the silence of God it actually belongs to an org chart of authority figures entitled to extract utility from that body while not having their motives (or appetites) questioned.
Part of that extraction of utility is the choice to destroy a child as a person to make them a better-functioning social widget. Actually killing a kid in the process is spillage, not manslaughter.

The Daily Beast reported the group is working on a complaint for the Chief Military Prosecutor’s Office saying that their sons who recently joined were told they were going to the border for “drills.” Their contracts were then immediately changed and the young men were moved into a war.
“They are switching entire regiments to contract [soldiers,] although the guys did not submit any formal requests for this, and took no such initiative. There are instances of physical violence, and beatings of those who refuse to become contract soldiers,” said the group’s deputy chair Andrei Kurochkin. “And after that it’s completely unknown [what happens to them], because they take away their phones. We’ve had a flurry of calls from scared mothers all over Russia. They are crying, they don’t know if their children are alive or healthy.”

To give a bit of context to what’s going on, while conscription is still practiced in the Russian military, most soldiers only do a 2 year stint (1 year training, 1 year service) before they’re placed on active reserve status. “Contract” soldiers are volunteer soldiers who agree to a term of service like you’d find in the West post-Vietnam.
What’s alleged to be going on in the Russian ranks would be like American soldiers being told that their contracts have been voided and they’re being drafted “for the duration.” These soldiers are being robbed of their autonomy and told that their asses now belong to the state even after their conscription period has expired.

At some point, you have to occupy that land with troops, and when you do, suddenly you have a whole bunch of targets who don’t come with 6 inches of steel armor. My fantasy for Ukraine involves railway artillery, but unfortunately, I don’t think anyone ever managed to get those to work optimally.
