You obviously have never met a Russian before. They are like Bama fans. Whenever anything bad happens it is easier and better for them to scapegoat and throw one of their own than it is for them to admit that they are not the best and their somebody might have gotten the better of their glorious leader (Saban for Bama fans and Putin for Russians).

The U.S. will send an additional $800 million worth of military and other security aid to Ukraine and step up intelligence sharing, American officials announced, as Russian forces appeared to be preparing for a new offensive in the country’s east.

It is reported that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are shelling the positions of Russian troops. There is an assumption that the Armed Forces of Ukraine could have hit the ammunition depot of the Russian Armed Forces


Man the Russians hold an airfield as well as James Harden holds his money in a strip club.

Better comparison. Neither have won anything since the 90s, but they think every year is their year.

What did the Russians win in the 90's?

Chechnya?

Thought they had to go back for that in the 2000's.

Or was 99 not the first attempt?

Russia is still competent enough to get people to space.



Let's be honest: they were never all that competent at doing that.


We remember the names of every Astronaut that died during a mission or NASA related event.


They never knew any of theirs died. And there were a lot of them that died.

The audio transmissions (although these are disputed by Russia as authentic) intercepted by the Italian brothers of the cosmonaut who was abandoned in orbit is really eerie and soemwhat disturbing to hear. He is berating the Soviet Space leaders for knowingly sending him up to die.

Didn't the Poli-board tell us that freezing Russian accounts would do nothing to change the war?


Do y'all think they ever tire of being wrong all the time?

The plan was to never pay up, regardless.

Sure, it wasn't as intense or violent as the January 6th attack on our Capitol, but we know from that y'all downplay all such "demonstrations'.

I hate the Russians as much as anyone does but that lost cosmonaut stuff appears to be Urban Legend territory.
