No pay wall for this WaPo piece by former Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul if you use this gift link.
The view is Putin is not winning at home or in Ukraine, and Putin knows it.
@JohnnyGenX It's WAY past time to start suing these cretins for practicing medicine without license.
@see_the_sus Sometimes a bit of madness is the only way to prevent going insane.
@DualReality69 Got an error message at that link. 😢
@Maude Thanks for that updated info. Am more at ease now. Send those brave people EVERYTHING they need.
Heard some of our military people training Ukrainians say those resourceful fighters came up with ways to utilize our weapons that our military had never thought of. But we need to remember, this is a people with old women bringing down surveillance drones by throwing jars of tomatoes and pickles!
Give them what they ask for & throw in extras!

Not to be a Debbie Downer this morning, but this headline from NPR hit me in the gut. 😖 Only in America.

I am shocked that there was a FBI/Russian agent aligned with oligarch Oleg Deripaska who was aligned with Paul manafort who was aligned with Donald Trump in the New York office of the FBI.
Well as shocked as gambling going on in a casino.

@Maude Is that the tank that requires aviation fuel? Heard discussion about fuel issue being a problem with some of the US tanks.

Another David Crosby Ohio: this version I had never heard before. It's fantastic. He is performing this with a bunch of students at an Artists for the Arts Foundation. https://youtu.be/kInBqFUNnow

Evening CoSo, grab your beverage of choice and a toast in remembrance of David Crosby, RIP, and Thank You for such inspiring music for so many generations.
As the Automation has been running, I am realizing just how many songs I have from this artist. Too many to play tonight, so contribute your memories for the community.

@attilatheblond @TomAq I miss the Obama years when you never had to hyper vigilant about the Government doing some kind of Fascist bs.
As matter of fact you could live your life and not really worry too much it was all humming along.

This tax proposal is the most regressive act I've ever seen.
It would be painful for middle class, but for the lowest socio-economic groups who currently pay little to no taxes because, too little income, this would be *devastating*. They'd go from barely squeaking by while paying 7ish% sales tax & 0 income tax to suddenly paying 30% sales tax.
If it were a flat income tax of 30% for all gross income starting at $200K, no write-offs, no exceptions, all income/gift/stock/whatever counts? 👍
@TomAq And it really got ugly when that black guy with the good education, solid resume of helping people and the smart, caring, stunning wife got voted in.
