Well, Mate, both father and son are confirmed socialists if not communists. In any event have always been far leftists.
Biden has been lukewarm on Ukraine from Day 1, and only began to slow roll support for Ukraine out of PUBLIC OPINION to support them. He doesn't want Ukraine to fall to Russia on his watch, and neither will Trump. IMO, Trump will want to be the VICTOR if elected and likely the best scenario for Ukraine is Trump to win.

ISW Update - The Baltics Are Also Nazis!
quote:
Key Takeaways:
Russian President Vladimir Putin, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, and Kremlin officials claimed that Russia is in an existential geopolitical conflict with an alleged modern Nazi movement that extends beyond Ukraine while marking the 80th anniversary of the breaking of the siege of Leningrad.
Putin has long tried to construct an ideology for Russia that he can use to support a geopolitical confrontation with the West reminiscent of the Cold War, and the Kremlin may increasingly use existing rhetoric about fighting Nazism to support this effort.
Putin specifically accused the Baltic states of adopting “Nazism,” likely as part of continued Kremlin efforts to set information conditions for future Russian aggression against NATO members.
Myanmar banks reportedly connected to the Russian System for the Transfer of Financial Messages (SPFS) banking system, a Russian analogue for the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT) banking system.
Russian forces conducted a limited series of drone and missile strikes against Ukraine on January 26 and 27.
Russian authorities are likely blocking communications in the Sakha Republic for the fourth consecutive day following January 24 protests in support of a Russian citizen allegedly murdered by a naturalized Russian citizen from Tajikistan.
Russian forces made recent confirmed advances near Kupyansk, Kreminna, and Avdiivka amid continued positional engagements along the entire line of contact on January 27.
UK outlet the Telegraph reported on January 26, citing an unnamed Western official, that Russia is spending roughly 40 percent of its GDP on the war in Ukraine, more than Russian national spending on health and education.
Russian federal subjects continue to establish patronage networks with occupied areas of Ukraine.

Russia made it very clear at the very beginning of the Ukraine invasion. Everyone who does not submit to Russian rule is “Nazi.” That doesn’t s their new definition of the term. There was a lengthy published justification for the war that said exactly that.

British Defence Intelligence
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 28 January 2024
On 22 January 2024, Russian authorities reported there had been 220 attacks on military enlistment offices since the conflict began in February 2022. Other statistics from media outlet Mediazona reported 113 attacks on enlistment offices recorded since 26 July 2023. Taken together, these statistics indicate a doubling of arson attacks on enlistment offices over the last six months.
Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Director Sergey Naryshkin accuses those responsible for the arson attacks of acting at the behest of Western officials. However, the increase in attacks is highly likely due to a greater sense of disaffection with the war amongst the Russian population and especially those who would be mobilised should a second wave of mobilisation be announced. Some of those accused of perpetrating such attacks have been charged with terrorism and treason.
Further mobilisation would be a contradiction to Putin's promise at his 14 December 2023 annual news conference that there would be no further mobilisation - the attacks highly likely suggest a lack of confidence in this promise.

5 Ukrainian officials arrested over theft of $40 million in war funds as Ukraine corruption persists
Keep sending them money, though!

I don’t understand the angle, Stout. If people are being arrested for corruption and the funds are being seized and returned to the defense budget, that is a sign of a functioning anti-corruption system. That’s a good sign, not a bad sign.

He felates nutter YouTube hosts and Putin. The actual point is that Ukraine is fighting corruption held over from the decades of Russian influence just like Burisma was.

It's also a good sign that it was widely reported in the Ukrainian press.

So you’re basically admitting you’re insecurity by posting on another board about what you posted on this one so you can get some gratification, like training a puppy to be house trained. Well congratulations! Great job! Does baby want a treat? Good boy!

It’s like when the cartels allow a small shipment of drugs to be intercepted so the DEA can have a photo Op and be like “look how effective we are, give us more money” same exact shite

They will say "yea but they caught these guys" It's the same tactic when cartels rat out their own mules so the bigger packages get through and the cops think they are doing something.

It’s time for us to deal with Iran once and for all. Unfortunately Biden is too weak to do anything but mumble about nothing incoherently so our guys are dying for nothing. His daddy Obama was the one that sent $400 million in Swiss francs and euros on pallets to Iran in the middle of the night on an unmarked 737 cargo jet. That’s how Biden deals with Iran. “Please take this money and promise not to be mean anymore”.
