I hope all American voters of Polish heritage watched how MAGA loyalist Tucker Carlson didn’t bat an eye to Putins outrageous claim that the Poles were responsible for Hitlers invasion of their country.

For the record, there was no Poland when Hitler invaded Russia.

It doesn't appear to have "totally" destroyed a city of 2,000,000.

Children among seven killed in Russian drone attack on Kharkiv

The Guardian 2/10/2024

Three children among the dead, governor says, after strike on petrol station causes burning fuel to spray out, igniting 14 houses

Seven people, including three children, were killed in a Russian drone attack on a petrol station in the city of Kharkiv in eastern Ukraine, the regional governor said on Saturday.

“Unfortunately the death toll from the occupiers’ attacks on Kharkiv has risen to seven,” Oleg Synegubov said on the Telegram social network.

“Among them are three children: 7, 4 years old and a baby about six months old.”

The attack late on Friday night sprayed nearby homes with burning fuel, forcing at least 50 people to evacuate, Kharkiv mayor’s, Igor Terekhov, said earlier.

“The enemy’s Shaheds [Iranian-made drones] hit a petrol station, causing burning fuel to spill out and 14 private houses to burn,” he said, adding the fire was burning across a wide area.

Firefighters and rescuers worked through the night to cope with the consequences of the strike, extinguish fires, and clear through the debris, officials said.

Kharkiv regional prosecutor Oleksandr Filachkov said three drones hit Kharkiv’s Nemyshlyanskyi district.

“As a result, an object of critical infrastructure was destroyed. There was a large amount of fuel, which is why the consequences of the fire were so terrible,” he said, referring to the petrol station.

The Ukrainian air force said that air defence and mobile groups of drone hunters shot down 23 out of 31 Russian-launched drones, which were targeting the Kharkiv region and also the Odesa region.

And a HEARTY KMA to you sir! When someone/anyone shows me what was accomplished by the sacrifice of American blood and treasure (except by Reagan and that only took treasure and was really the only win I can recall) to stop communism. You are an ass when you accuse anyone who disagrees with you of being a Putin lover. My parents, grandparents, uncle, God parents....everyone in my parents circle of friends that I grew up knowing, all escaped from Hungary and Russia's control so maybe I know a bit about Russia that doesn't come from books, TV reporting and someone's emotional gut, also about America not fulfilling a promise. But hey let's keep bankrolling a war that Ukraine can't win, even if it costs every American dollar and Ukraine young mans life. So once again KMA! I suggest you put me on ignore if my different opinion gets your panties in a twist, it's where I will put you

So,someone of  Polish descent named  McFaul is now implying/claiming the Soviet invasion of Poland was Trump's fault????

I know the left and the mindless middle were panicking  over Trump's  WH run,but this is a whole new level of desperation.

Well put.

I am all for helping Ukraine, after we have

(1) taken care of the hoard at  border, and resolved the fentanyl crisis
(2) resolved and helped the Mount Palistine Ohio rail vicitms,
(3) Get those who lost in all in Maui back on their feet
(4) Add  no more Fedzilla debt.  $34T is f'ing way past enough

Positin wise :
* Putin as a POS despot who deserves to die 
* I am  hardly one who doesn't even remotely fits the MAGA agenda or support.  I've dissed Trump here as much or more than anyone.   * Sick and tired of lining Zellinsky's grift. 
* Never seen so much trolling lately at TBR.

@GtHawk isn't a Putin lover.  And I should know.  I never see him at any of the meetings.

I want the Russian hating GOP back. Like it was under Reagan.

As do I.  But that ship sailed away at the RNC Convention in 2016.

As for Mike Lee, his comments are directly addressing the (BS) narrative that he was handed.  And in that regard, his comment is 100% valid.  The bottom line here is that the GOP demanded something be done about the border.  But unfortunately, that decision was completely out of the hands of the legislature.  But give that no mind.  The dumb-ass GOP demanded that Congress "do something" about the border, so that is exactly what they got.  Except that the Democrats used that opportunity to write a bill that codifies every bad thing that Biden has done, thus making his illegal actions 'legal'.  At which point even Mitch McConnell woke up and killed it.

But the original narrative was still fresh in the air.  So what do we have?  Instead of everything rolled into one bill, we got no bill for the border (thank G-d), and we get separate bills for Ukraine and Israel (as it should be).  So now Senators like Mike Lee are holding the bag containing the original narrative and seeing that Congress isn't going to do a damn thing about the border.  So he is reminding his fellow legislatures of this by reciting that original rhetoric.

As far as Congress goes, they had one and only one opportunity to fix this.  And they blew that (thanks to Kevin McCarthy) when they raised the debt ceiling.  That was the one  and only opportunity for Republicans to get anything done, and they forfeited that well past the next election.  And this is why the GOP is known as the Stupid Party.

But back to Ukraine.  Just because someone opposes Ukraine money because they are an isolationist (Rand Paul) or they don't believe in spending money we don't have (Mike Lee), it doesn't make them a Putin loving MAGA type.  Sure, those types of Democrat-lite Republicans exist.  But I can assure you that GtHawk is not one of them.

Moldova Police Find Russian Drone Fragments Near Ukraine Border

Reuters  |  Feb. 11, 2024, at 2:17 p.m.

CHISINAU (Reuters) - Police on Sunday found fragments of a Russian drone alongside the Moldova border with Ukraine, prompting pro-European President Maia Sandu to renew her support for Kyiv in its nearly two-year-old war with Moscow.

The war has buffeted Moldova, with periodic reports of weapon fragments found on the territory of the ex-Soviet state lying between Ukraine and Romania. Sandu, whose main policy goal is securing European Union membership, has singled out Russia and corruption as the two greatest threats to her country.  .  .

Ukraine makes major troop withdrawal in key win for Putin and Russia

Ukrainian troops have withdrawn from the key battleground town of Avdiivka in the east of the country which could pave the way for a Russian advance as the war nears its second anniversary.

The withdrawal, announced as Ukraine faces acute shortages of ammunition with U.S. military aid delayed for months in Congress, aimed to save troops from being fully surrounded by Russian forces after months of fierce fighting, Kyiv said.

Most of the city’s pre-war population of 32,000 people has already left, and the town has been almost completely destroyed.

General Oleksandr Syrskyi, who took the helm of the Ukrainian military in a major shakeup last week, announced the withdrawal as a tactical move to save the lives of troops in a town that has been under heavy attack for months.

"I decided to withdraw our units from the town and move to defense from more favorable lines in order to avoid encirclement and preserve the lives and health of servicemen."

"Our soldiers performed their military duty with dignity, did everything possible to destroy the best Russian military units, inflicted significant losses on the enemy in terms of manpower and equipment," he said.

Russia stepped up its offensive on Avdiivka in October and Ukraine's position had been looking increasingly fraught for weeks.............
