'Reports claim'; 'unnamed sources'; what kind of 💩 are you peddling? PDB is nothing but speculation. If I want that I can listen to MSNBC, CNN, or Morning Joe.
Russia is paranoid. They think the West is creeping toward their borders to invade like the Germans did in June 1941. How do you deal with paranoia? The Russians (Soviets) expressed this view to the GHW Bush administration which ignored them. Our track record in this arena is not very good.
Mike, (and team) what are the words that are blacked out in your PDB logo? Thank you all, for your effort.
War in Ukraine: How much 💰💰 and 💀😵 is Europe willing to 'contribute' to Ukraine?🤔 For the US answer is 'we're broke'; it's Europe's problem now. The EU is a BIG BLOATED bureaucracy that feeds Euros to itself.
Deja Vu of April 25, 1846. Only this time, the HI TECH version. Kill them all; let Montezuma sort them out.🤕🙃😁

FAKE NEWS When the WH press sec issues a statement, then I might pay attention. 🥸👾😂

The mid east isn't the only place Iran supports terror organizations. Latin America is also a 'hot spot' for such activity. ALL Latin American leftist governments are in bed with the Iranians.
Canadians are STUPID. They elect these MPs who find creative ways to take away their civil rights. Just look @ the last "truckers protest". Canada has NO founding document and no Bill of Rights. They are UK Lite.
French. Haven't been a fighting force since the fall of Dien Ben Phu.👎🥸🤠
