Putin proposes test

What a great way to start the Christmas week: Vladimir Putin has thrown down a gauntlet to the west… and it’s kind of amusing. The pity of it is that with Joe in the White House, Vlad’s challenging an unarmed man to a battle of wits. The subject is Russia’s vaunted Mach 10 Oreshnik missile. […]
