I love it!

Go Ukraine.

Just think what Ukraine could do if they had anything more than token support from Dementia Joe “Putin’s Boy” Biden.

Putin will escalate to ‘scorched earth’ campaign in the next 48-hours: expert

Putin and Rump spent four years together trying to undermine and destabilize NATO. One Putin miscalculated invasion has unraveled all their work. NATO may become stronger and more important than ever. Madmen are never as smart as they think they are.

Question for those of you in touch with Reality:

The $400 million of military aid that was withheld from Ukraine which was a criminal act by the defeated former failure did it ever get to them?

I can see some history here:

In particular:

In January 2020, the Government Accountability Office, a non-partisan watchdog, concluded that the White House broke federal law by withholding Congress-approved military aid to Ukraine.23

I can see that the US under its current leadership is working toward helping:

But that is under the current, functional, adult leadership of the US and not the previous cluster.

According to DOD, $250 million was sent in 2019. https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/1879340/dod-announces-250m-to-ukraine/

According to a Stimson article, some more $ was sent in 2020, and, “In January 2022, with tensions along Ukraine’s eastern border at an all-time high, the U.S. began delivery of an additional $200 million in lethal and non-lethal aid directly from Department of Defense stockpiles.” https://www.stimson.org/2022/u-s-military-assistance-to-ukraine/

A great cartoon, I love it. What’s even better is that the truth will tick off the republigoons, their sycophants / apologists and all the republigoon owned servants / slaves. Well done, Mr. Bennett, well done indeed.

Hoping that the resistance will be sufficient.

Should be a school of them leaping out of the water.

And the Russians, Putin especially should also watch out for Finns in that stream.

This situation is real. But this comic made me giggle. Great display of reality.

Sweden to Send Arms to Ukraine in Break With Tradition: PM

Andersson said 5,000 anti-tank weapons of the model “Pansarskott 86,” a single-use anti-tank launcher known internationally as Bofors AT-4, would be sent to Ukraine.

The decision to send arms, 135,000 field rations, 5,000 helmets, and 5,000 pieces of body armor is the first time Sweden has sent weapons to a country in armed conflict since the Soviet Union attacked Finland in 1939, Andersson added.

Swedish media reported that Ukraine had specifically requested the more advanced Robot-57 anti-tank system.

“A weapons system that can strike against tanks and armored vehicles has been requested and this is such a system,” Defense Minister Peter Hultqvist said when asked about the decision.

“In addition this is a system that is easy to operate, doesn’t require training and can be handled by a single soldier,” Hultqvist added.

Sweden officially abandoned its stance of neutrality at the end of the Cold War but remains officially “non-aligned” and outside military alliances.

The country is not a member of NATO, although it has been a partner to the alliance since the mid-1990s.

Pipsqueak and Gummy would say tRump is an idiot if the Democrats said he was a genius.

Been watching bears at Katmai for years; this is the best I’ve ever seen. Most Excellent, Clay ♥♥♥

I sure hope it lasts!

That fish cannot eat that bear. Just can’t.
