[AllHandlesHaveBeenTaken]

Wagner looks like a character in Mad magazine

[rickrinke]

I’m here with my father and we want our money!!

We need to keep an eye on Republicans with regard to Ukraine. You can bet that those who oppose aid have ties to Putin.

[lawrence]

I am not sure what Putin and Prigozhin are doing. But I do know they don’t seem to be very bad at it.

[Toekneepowers]

The president has unilateral and complete authority to declassify material.

[herrwahnsinn]

Because the US is completely morally a saint militarily in Africa, or anywhere else for that matter. (Esp Libya 2011 and 2012)

[ellenbeckett]

Prigozhin looks like a Breaking Bad character

[johnward]

Reminds me of the time the January 6th Patriots stood up to an illegitimate president.

[stephenbrickwood]

Every one needs to believe.
We do things because we believe in the future outcomes.
Populations believe in their government, generally.
Or believe it is best to go along

Meanwhile down in the cellar joe Brandon walks in circles with pants at his ankles asking "Have We Won WWIII Yet?!"😂

[cowboycurtis]

Some regular citizens exercise their right to protest and mostly end up taking a glorified tour of Congress: "iNsUrReCtiOn!!"
An armed military organization marches against a democratically elected president... "This is fine. Putin and orange man bad."

[debbie]

Gee, I wonder why Hunter went with daddy to camp David for 3 days? (And what could they have possibly be talking about? LOL)

[paulvr]

The Russian flag flew high in all those coups in Francophile Africa in the last while (18 months?), and now Wagner is kaput!!
Now those countries will be thrown to the like the French warned them would happen.
Poor beautiful Africa.
C est la vie, learning the hard way is never easy.

[pennydavis]

What happens to United States 🇺🇸 Military Famalies. That’s the question? My Sgt has been deployed for almost 7 yrs. He is needed at home. We deserves our husbands and wives Asap!! Copied

[illuvatar]

Such gall - doesn't Russia and the rest of the world - including africa - know that africa belongs to the US?

[ImaBimbo-pxcp]

BREAKING NEWS: Trump to visit Russian troops to boost morale..😀😂.

[craigh]

Yo russian trolls: You make it way too easy to spot. Easy off on the nutbaggery

[DemocratsSuckkk]

Symone can't wipe herself just like the Wagner group

[boblester]
