    I’m still saying that he has terminal cancer or dementia, and doesn’t care (or can’t believe) that he is losing, he will keep pushing this fight until every Russian soldier dies.

    For those illegal immigration hurts America deniers:If you have the most basic understanding of supply and demand economics, then you understand that if you increase the supply of something, the cost, and the demand decrease. The same principle can be applied to immigration. Immigration is like trade, Immigration simply allows production to be done domestically.Even the New York Times recently conceded this fact when they published video essays by Kahn Academy which explains that immigration and globalization are the main drivers behind the decreasing wages, and the massive gap between wages and the GDP, which coincidentally started to occur around 1965.According to economists like Edward Lazear, Paul Collier, and George J Borjas, mass immigration of low-skilled workers has been a major drain on the American worker. In his estimate of the immigration surplus, Borjas finds that the total surplus is around $50 billion dollars.This number is negligible in America’s multi-trillion-dollar economy, but the good news ends there. Borjas concluded that the majority of the benefit went to the immigrant workers themselves, and the native firms who push to bring them in, in order to drive down the cost of labor in the first place.The $50 billion-dollar surplus though is completely wiped away when you control for the welfare benefits most immigrants receive, as well as their public education. In terms of economics, mass immigration statistically has been a net negative on the American people.The demographic that makes up most of our immigrant population use more government services than the amount of taxes they pay into the system, and more than half of all immigrants are on some form of welfare for decades.Start throwing in public education, public transportation, ESL, cash and non-cash welfare, the criminal justice system, and other public services, and we arrive at the controversial deficit the media refuses to talk about. – DailyVeracity

    LOL: US four-Star general tweets video game as real Ukraine war battle

    An American mainstream “military analyst”, the four-star General Barry McCaffrey on Monday tweeted a sequence from a 2015 video game Arma 3 as the actual footage of Ukrainian forces downing a Russian aircraft.It is quite surprising that the high-ranking military officer did not verify the content he chose to spread on his social media account since it is not the first time the pro-Ukraine faction has published video game footage as genuine Ukraine victories.In fact, the Ukrainian government had previously released at least two video game clips for propaganda in recent months. In a short clip of the Arma 3 video game play, an imaginary Russian MiG-29 gets shot down by an air defense system.“Russian aircraft getting nailed by UKR missile defense. Russians are losing large numbers of attack aircraft. UKR air defense becoming formidable,” McCaffrey announced on Twitter.On Monday meanwhile, the surrender of hundreds of Azov Battalion fighters that had been holed up in Mariupol’s Azovstal steel factory were described by the mainstream media as an “evacuation” and an “end” to their “combat mission”. – Free West Media

    The knife Putin is holding (or the one I think it is patterned after) is actually really cool. Khanjali, the Russian Cossack’s dagger.

    If the Russian army is really THAT bad wouldn’t this invasion/war be OVER by now?

    This is a great toon! This shows EXACTLY the state Russia’s in. Putin may think he’s won and conquered Ukraine but #1 Ukraine as far as I know, has killed a couple of their top soldiers. One of them being a highly decorated general. Putin doesn’t see the long term effects his assault will create. One of them being that many Russian citizens are not in accordance with Putin’s insane invasion. His invasion was for PERSONAL gain and satisfaction! NOT for the benefit of the Russian people! And with Joe secretly sending them money and aid, like in chess, Putin’s going to either have withdraw, or be toppled! I’m no political expert, but I don’t think that that’s what Communism is all about. It’s about a belief. Not about trying to bully other nations!

    Anyone remember Tyrone “Mugsy” Bogues of the NBA? He didn’t score a lot of points but he made a huge impact on the game!

    Former President George W. Bush: “The decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq. I mean of Ukraine.”
