Over 29 years of fanhood

Because he won’t, because he still has family there and doesn’t need to jeopardize their welfare

is the thought they didn’t see this coming and liquidate their assets away from these policing activities or did these super wealthy believe the world wouldn’t have reacted this way?

Digital currency is going to take it from here. narrator needs to read this https://insidebitcoins.com/news/european-central-bank-expresses-concerns-over-russia-using-crypto-to-avoid-sanctions Yes, I am saying at a macro level, cashless society shares a lot of the same risk as coin currency. Instead of a number on a website your coins are pieces of metal some entity stamped text on to assign it a value. if you really want to fight the risk start bartering livestock and produce 😉 You’re the one hand waiving and hand wringing- some aren’t happy unless they are worried about something… im really not so worried about it.

what is the point? If your suggestions e commerce has risk and consolidates power, my point is so does a currency. bitcoin is supposed to assuage some of the digital currency concerns. at the end of the day governments can do what ever they want, which is why the less power they have, the better

it was a a major miscalculation not to have at least help arm Ukraine arm up to defend themselves. I’m with you, there is no stoping this train now. I also don’t see how Zelenski survives the next few weeks. 1) He is super charismatic and now the iconic face of the Ukrainian democratic republic… 2) Putin isn’t going to take a loss now so he’s going to take Kyiv or level it 3) the geopolitical damage is done at this point. There’s no “ooops my bad” 4) as much as the world it mostly rooting for Ukraine, no one is fearless enough to step in and help fight. the only possible alternative outcome is if Russia itself revolts on Putin or if his autocracy is somehow threatened internally to the point where he finds a graceful diplomatic exit he can sell as a win at home

Yeah you can wake up tomorrow and have a bunch of printed paper that’s worthless too, by decree. That’s the appeal of hard assets like property and metals. We trade tangible assists like goods and services for paper or digital currency. It’s just the way we’ve decided it’s gonna work, with all it perils.

it’s so hard to watch… half that column could be obliterated with one concerted air strike making the raid impassable if the Ukraine had any capability left at all. and we know once they get to Kyiv it’s over as valiantly as the people have resisted.

They keep making it harder to explain why it’s called football

look no further than the Starbucks barista union!

Wonder if he’ll mention this? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10553465/amp/Hunter-Biden-intimately-involved-Devon-Archers-company-emails-show.html

I had the same thought, although maybe they only have air to air capability left?

I’m with you… cut “some” Russian banks from swift. “Restrict” working with “some” technology firms. the global elites want to signal virtue but make sure it doesn’t hurt their wallets. good thing for Ukraine they are led by a guy with brass balls. He’s really seemed impressive.

it’s hard to believe right now this whole issue revolves around one guy. He needs to be exterminated or removed from power. Jezus no more world leaders past retirement age please

True. The concern the last sentence raises is how blood my and aggressive is he willing to ratchet things up to try and beat the clock.

Perhaps- but a cornered vicious animal is most dangerous and irrational

No way it’s happening without Putin calling it out

Unhinged… https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10553723/Putin-turns-attention-Finland-Sweden-Kremlin-official-warns-nations.html

it make sense they’d be worried about Fukushima… I mean, Germany must have 4 tsunami warnings a day right?? It dawned on me Putin might have staged all of this to distract us from the earth shattering revelations of the Jan 6 findings about his lapdog 😝

fits the job description given by Joe. I guess there’s not much else to talk about.

That’s a poor choice- both happily pose an existential threat to western democracy. the only positive the may bring is uniting people that ran out of real things to fight about thus resorting to what we’ve done lately

never say never. Global superpower aspirations and a shared border often break down. I can’t imagine how horrific going to war with China might be.

this is scary. Vlad is moving. It’s no accident he had a televised meeting with Pakistan pm today. I don’t believe this Ukraine thing is isolated- He’s going full throttle. This must be what a mid life crisis for a super villain authoritarian sociopath looks like.

I’m off this week but I’d love to hear about the war first thing Monday?? what the hell is wrong with these people?

Is there another Putin waiting in the wings or could one well place drone strike solve this?

we all know it’s corrupt. All that Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, Trump impeachment quid pro quo phone call investigation corruption was about Ukrainian corruption… But Putins corruption is of a completely higher magnitude.
