Michael Flynn is pretty much in "Who the ***** is Michael Flynn and why should anybody care?" territory. His takes are all the same. Putin is invincible, Russian catastrophes are really 5D chess, Ukraine is collapsing and final victory is only a matter of time yadda yadda yadda. If he were paid by Custer, he'd be saying Sitting Bull is a coward, Crazy Horse is a pedophile, and being shot once in the chest and once in the head were part of Custer's 1000 IQ plan to win the Little Bighorn.

Turkey said yesterday that their might be an agreement soon. That seems to have gone the way of the Do Do. Video out today of Russia troops breaking up anti-occupation protests in Kherson with live ammo. Yeah. Russia's going to turn this from a left vs right, East vs west thing, into a good vs evil thing. Simply by being brutal and stupid.

Well, yeah Dr. Caroline. Anyone that looks into Jack Posobiec for 10 minutes will find out he's a dime-a-dozen alt-right stooge whose opinion on basically anything is safely ignored. There are far more rational commentators on the conservative side of the political spectrum. Posobiec is a hack among hacks who is only able to exist because Social Media is a cancer.

Breaking: Von Miller to bills, 6 year , 120 million
Coffeesforclosers replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
It took the NFL a year or two to figure out how well the Bills travel, and how much audiences love Josh Allen. We *might* get as many prime time games as the Cowboys. It's gonna be close. Jerrah is gonna have to pull out all the stops. -
OT: The sudden existential crisis in New England
Coffeesforclosers replied to Success's topic in The Stadium Wall
How did they not have any money? Who manages their cap? They found the cash to re-sign every last 30+ hasbeen from the Brady Years. They found a quarter BILLION dollars to try and rebuild their their team from the 2000s, because it was 5D chess, 1000 IQ roster construction. But they can't find Alpha WR money to bail out poor McCorkle or keep his O-line whole? It's like the Pats can't sign a player who weighs less than 250 lbs, or is younger than 29. -

Well, it's pretty obvious who's reading the thread, and who's posting sticker shock hot takes -
Something's going on in Belarus. Some opposition leader called Lukashenko a Russian puppet (he is), said his country is occupied, and called for western aid. There's also sounds like explosions across the country, though some folks are saying it's sonic booms from Russian and Belarusian fighters heading to Ukraine. Maybe it something, maybe it's not, but its supposedly happening right now.

Chandler Jones signing with Raiders - 3 years, $52.5 mill
Coffeesforclosers replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
Well, at least he didn't go to New England. And he gets to beat up on Russel Wilson, Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert for the rest of his career. -
McKissinc changes mind, returning to Washington
Coffeesforclosers replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wow. So he passed up money and the chance for rings to get the same amount of money. Beginning to think we don't need somebody that...dumb...on the team anyway. -
Clinton Political Dynasty
Coffeesforclosers replied to TakeYouToTasker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Hillary tried to reform healthcare in the 90s and killed the issue for 20 years. When she got her butt kicked in the primaries by Obama, she commissioned an incredibly detailed analysis of her defeat, read it...then repeated all the same mistakes against Trump. Sorta weird that she's married to one of the most effective politicians since Regan, and didn't seem to learn much. -
No doubt, but it's because Putin, in an odd paradox, also lives in an America-centric world. We're the ones who destroyed the USSR, we're the ones who control the EU, we're the ones who control NATO. He honestly doesn't think their is a truly independent country between Moscow and the East Coast. He also honestly thinks every country that was once part of Russia is now led by a tiny elite of American stooges while its people yearn for the Russian Motherland. He can't frame a view of the world without an American boogieman hiding under every bed. It's like Sherpa said. He's nuts. No one is left to tell the Tsar that he's got no clothes on.

Makes sense. He thinks the EU and NATO are all just US puppet states, and that democracies are inherently "weak", whatever that means, and morally corrupt. But at the same time, his country is being brought to it's knees by resistance in a land they thought would welcome them as liberators. And while America hasn't committed a single soldier, plane or ship into action with Russian forces. I'm not really going to by the whole "Putin has a master plan, this all just looks like a trainwreck because that's what he wants us to think" angle.

All this talk of "interests", does anybody that uses this word have a clue what they are talking about? It's a buzzword, it's jargon, it's a BS term people repeat to sound smart. Russia's an authoritarian state and Tsar Vladimir the Insane decides what it does. In theory. Whether his people follow the orders, or his government executes them effectively, or whether his enemies decide to kick him square in the balls, that's another thing entirely. "Russia" does not have "interests". People in power in Russia have made choices based on information, and mannnny of them were very, very wrong. But I guess Michael Flynn thinks it's not in America's "interest" to get Russia thinking "This is what happens to you if you invade a country we like. Do you *really* want to invade a country legally allied with?". You know, like Tsar Vladimir the Insane said he would do whenever he wanted to before all this started so he could rebuild the Russian Empire? Gee whiz, I wonder how Flynn conveniently forgot about that.
