Or you fearmongers could be wrong about him yet again.

I'll take odds on that, for sure. Just like the odds are you'll never create a handle.

The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, says that Wednesday will be “the day of the attack.” The Russian Duma will supposedly vote to recognize Luhansk and Donetsk. When that happens, Russian troops will move in to Ukraine.

It therefore appears that an invasion of Ukraine will occur within hours. Sources indicate that if the United States puts sanctions on Russia, the Russians will commence a cyber-attack on the U.S. East Coast. If you live on the East Coast, you might want to prepare for a major power blackout. I have no idea how serious such an attack could be.

My own thinking has always been: (1) Moscow was always gong to take back Ukraine; (2) Moscow was always going to ally with Beijing; (3) the United States was always going to miss all the cues; (4) the West does not understand that the military balance of power is now shifting in favor of Moscow and Beijing; (5) the United States cannot win by dropping refrigerators and cars, along with other consumer goods, on Russian cities because China will soon cut off our supply.

We are entering an era in which misjudgments about Russia and China will undo a person’s reputation. Permanently. To misunderstand what is happening now, after the situation has become so crystal clear, is unforgivable. The Russians are putting the Soviet Union back together. But more than that, they are doing so rapidly even as communism has America by the throat here at home.

US accuses financial website of spreading Russian propaganda

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. intelligence officials on Tuesday accused a conservative financial news website with a significant American readership of amplifying Kremlin propaganda and alleged five media outlets targeting Ukrainians have taken direction from Russian spies.

The officials said Zero Hedge, which has 1.2 million Twitter followers, published articles created by Moscow-controlled media that were then shared by outlets and people unaware of their nexus to Russian intelligence. The officials did not say whether they thought Zero Hedge knew of any links to spy agencies and did not allege direct links between the website and Russia.

• Putin said that there were no Russian troops in Crimea, as
  Russian troops were invading Crimea, torturing, shooting and jailing
  the Tatars and any opposition figures in Crimea. Russia held a
  referendum, but anyone opposing the referendum could be tortured and
  jailed. Putin "won" the referendum.
• Later, Putin announced that Russia would not annex Crimea. A few
  days later, Russia annexed Crimea.
• Putin gave a television interview early in 2015 in which he
  bragged about fooling the West by lying about Russia's invasion of
  Crimea, saying that he ordered the invasion and annexation of Crimea
  weeks before it occurred, during a period of time when he repeatedly
  lied about the presence of Russian troops and about his
  intentions.
• Putin changed his story about no Russian troops in East Ukraine by
  saying that they were "volunteers." This is another deceit. America
  has an "all-volunteer army," so any American troops overseas are
  "volunteers." The same is true for Russian "volunteers," who are
  regular army troops ordered to Ukraine.

• The airplane was not shot down at all, but fell out of the sky
  by itself;
• A bomb exploded aboard the airplane;
• The airplane was struck by a meteor;
• The airplane was hit by a Ukrainian missile fired from the
  ground;
• A Ukrainian air force fighter pursued and then attacked the
  plane;
• The U.S. shot down the plane in order to damage Russia's
  reputation;
• The U.S. shot down the plane in order to embarrass Putin;
• No living people were aboard the plane as it flew on autopilot
  from Amsterdam, where it had been pre-loaded with "rotting
  corpses."

But thomasglee just spent the last few minutes rubbing everyone's noses in the fact that Putin is a good guy-- a misunderstood hero--and Biden is balding man bad...
