Putler finally forced his paid and Kompromated puppets in the American government to pull support from Ukraine.
Now he can take what all he wants. Good job Qult45. Well done.
Edit: member when the DNC was hacked by two Russian government backed groups for years and all the dirt came pouring out everywhere right before the US elections? Member when those same groups had hacked into the RNC for many many years, yet none of the piles of dirt leaked? That’s called Kompromat. And it’s leveraged even to this very day.
Reminder that Israel spends more yearly on influencing american elections then russia has spent in total.
Whataboutisms abound
The difference is that Israel is an ally and Ruzzia is an adversary, but that should be obvious to anyone without their head up their asses.
How is that meaningfully different?
It's the difference between your friend making you a cup of tea, and Putin making you a cup of tea.
And while your friend is making tea, he throws a grenade into the basement.
Turns out there's a Palestinian family living in that basement. Actually it's their house. Your friend forced their way in, locked them in the basement, and is now throwing grenades in there now and again. He calls that "mowing the lawn", and he does it just to show them who's boss.
You thank him for the tea, and ask him if the 100 grenades you brought are enough. He's your best friend.
You consider election interference to be equivalent to a cup of tea?
Get better friends.

MSNBC is a firehose. Go fuck yourself, Maddow.
It's literally a baseless conspiracy theory
No there wasn't.
Hedges’ criticism goes much deeper than that. The rot—that Trump is a symptom of—goes back decades. Death of the Liberal Class
Americans accept that not all of their problems are the fault of foreigners challenge (Impossible).
