Russian President Vladimir Putin's attire during his Thursday war declaration suggests his speech may have been pre-taped.
Putin on Thursday said he decided to launch a "special military action" against Ukraine, in a video that aired early Thursday morning in Russia.
But during a televised address on Monday, Putin appeared to wear the same outfit as he denounced Ukraine's sovereignty, argued that Ukraine was a creation of the Soviet Union, and announced military intervention in eastern Ukraine.

WNU Editor: It was definitely pre-taped. The question(s) that remains unanswered is when was it done, and how many different versions were made.
it was done 4 days prior to delivery
ReplyDeleteAwkward: Awkward: Asked if He Underestimated Putin, Biden Stares Vacantly and Picks His Teeth
ReplyDeleteThe Morning Briefing: WAR—
With a Weakling in the Oval Office, Putin Does What He Wants
joe biden is weak tea.
The explanation about Biden is such tripe from the right wing morons that I do not bother to deal with it. Suffice it to say: Putin got from Trump what he wanted, ie weakened NATO and an attempt to withhold military aid to Ukraine unless their leader got something on Biden.
ReplyDeleteAnd what is Trump saying now? Putin is good, strong etc. In other words defending the invasion of Ukraine. and his fellow Russian pal, Tucker:
Tucker Carlson, downplaying Russia-Ukraine conflict, urges Americans to ask, ‘Why do I hate Putin?’
Carlson’s pro-Putin act is so helpful that Russian state television has been rebroadcasting it with Russian subtitles. Carlson “urged Americans to turn against their government on the grounds that higher costs for them, in exchange for a pointless stand against Putin, is a ‘terrible deal for you,’” as Will Saletan summed it up in a Bulwark story comparing him to Charles Coughlin, the WWII-era radio host who defended the Nazis and painted Jews as a conniving force pushing the United States into the European conflict.
"[Putin] sees the weakness and the incompetence and the stupidity of this administration. As an American I am angry about it and saddened by it.
ReplyDelete- Trump
Actually quote Trump in context.
It wasn't a declaration of War! I hate how the media twists the narrative into a false reality.
ReplyDeleteReports now of Chinese violating Taiwanese airspace.
ReplyDeletejoe biden, the big guy, Mr. 10%, has unprecedent sooper dooper sanctions ready for when China invades Taiwan.
WNU normally posts anything that comes out of Trump's mouth. Not a peep concerning Trump saying that Putin is a genuis.
ReplyDeleteHmmm...
the comment by Trump"
ReplyDeleteIf he is a friend to Putin, let him call him
If he opposes an invasion of Ukraine, let him (Trump-) denounce it
Nope. he badmouths the goy who beat him
who cares about the deaths that will pile up. For Trump it is Me Me Me
Biden weak? let us now see what he does
ReplyDeleteBiden has been presented with options for massive cyberattacks against Russia
The options presented include disrupting the internet across Russia, shutting off power and stopping trains in their tracks.
People called Hitler an evil genius for decades. You can call some one a genius and still fight him. It behooves people to correctly assess an opponents intelligence. If they are average note it. If they are genius, not it.
ReplyDelete1:50 / 1:53 / 1:55 is all the same person.
1:53 used the word goy. Freudian slip on his part?
called typing error moron
ReplyDeletein passing, how is your slip? pink?
Trump has always adored Putin. Name one instance when he ever said a bad word about him or Russia!!
"Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is reckless and evil. The United States stands with the people of Ukraine and prays for their safety and resolve," McCarthy, R-Calif., said. "Putin’s actions must be met with serious consequence. This act of war is intended to rewrite history and more concerning, upend the balance of power in Europe. Putin must be held accountable for his actions."
"What we have in Europe now is the first shooting war since World War II. This is a serious serious incident," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., added. He levied criticism against President Biden's strategy so far on Russia before arguing that the U.S. and the West should deploy every available sanction against Russia immediately.
"We're all together at this point and we need to be together about what should be done. But I have some advice. Ratchet the sanctions all the way up. Don't hold any back. Every single available tough sanction should be employed and should be employed now," McConnell said. "There's no such thing as a little invasion."
So it was a Freudian slip.
ReplyDeleteA fat finger spelling would be giy not goy. Check out the keyboard layout.
who called Hitler a genius?
ReplyDeletefights two-front war and loses the war
He was evil. yes. no sign that I know of that he was a genius? A genius does not send trains etc to extermination camps when war going against him and he needs all the resources available but does not use them because so caught up with exterminating Jews, gypsies, Poles
Trump called him a genius. I imagine you think Trump a genius too

ReplyDelete"who called Hitler a genius?"

Adolf Hitler: Perverse Political Genius - rjgeib
How Hitler acquired his disastrous genius - Catholic Herald
During the 60s, 70s and 80-s it was de rigueur to call Hitler an evil genius. My belief is that calling Hitler a genius is a cop out.
It is an excuse made up by politicians historians others for why Hitler was allowed to wreck havoc.
Putin will be called an evil genius too. As way to exculpate the the Washington DC establishment among others.
