Ukraine
The lady doth protest too much, methinks
Five years ago if you’d said we were funding foreign biological research, I’d have thought you a conspiracy theorist. Then the Chinese unleashed (accidentally or on purpose, not sure which is worse) COVID-19 from their American-sponsored bio research lab in Wuhan. Then we learned about the other appalling research conducted with US grant money (feeding […]
Polish MiGs going to Ukraine? Nobody knows
Last week it was reported that Ukraine said they would be receiving fighters from nearby countries. Those countries are part of NATO, who is trying hard to officially stay out of the Russia-Ukraine War. Poland told the media it was “fake news” that they were considering the move. Our Secretary of State said, hours later, […]
Russian invaders uparmoring their trucks with wood

I See a Bald Man Crying….
I hope I’m right about “bald man crying”. I am so disappointed in Vlad. Sorry, I’ve been so preoccupied with taking stock of what’s going on in the Real World outside the local news of the day, that it’s becoming near-impossible to try to keep up with Putin’s idiotic ego trip.

Interesting If True
Multiple news sources are reporting that Ukrainian forces have eliminated a Chechen hit squad sent by Russia to assassinate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. At least some of those sources are also reporting that Ukrainian forces have an alleged second Chechen hit squad under surveillance. That in itself is not a great surprise. However, those same […]
Ukraine Is Not For Sale
Well, boys and girls, it appears that Vlad Putin’s “plan” to “annex” Ukraine isn’t working out quite as well as he thought it would. Tanks mired in mud? Gee whiz, folks, doesn’t OUR Army have tanks that can practically swim in a swamp? And Ukraine has asked for membership in the European Union, which has […]
