Some companies are coming out to clarify the Russian vodka boycott. For instance, Smirnoff is not a Russian product though it was of that origin.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Holy crap you think I’m Nathan. .


Nope. You know that I know who you are. Unless you want me to go after this like a dog on a bone my advice is to just ignore my posts and I'll ignore yours. I don't care that you're here, you can't pull the crap here that you do other places you'll be kicked off in 10 seconds.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

The Democratic Socialists of America, which includes members AOC and Sanders, demands US withdrawal from NATO and the end to imperialist expansion, which they claim set the stage for the Russian war on Ukraine.

Vladimir likes this. -smiley face.

Apparently, the desire of the Ukrainians to remain independent and free from Russian tyranny, had nothing to do with it.

“DSA reaffirms our call for the US to withdraw from NATO and to end the imperialist expansionism that set the stage for this conflict,”

“While the failures of neoliberal order are clear to everyone, the ruling class is trying to build a new world, through a dystopic transition grounded in militarism, imperialism, and war. Socialists have a duty to build an alternative.”

I never heard of the DSA
Ask anybody in America about the DSA and you get a WTF
This is the reaction to a Tucker segment broadcast in Russia
Of course Putin will broadcast Fox
Tucker is a huge Putin supporter and it's important for the Russian people to know that
Fox is huge influence
DSA?????????
WTF is that :-)
DSA no influence
I think Tanko is the only person that follows the DSA
Take MTG. I try to ignore her
Take AOC. She speaks, Tanko listens. Too funny

You know who did everything in his power to weaken NATO? Donny.

Wonder if he still thinks Putin’s moves in Ukraine are “genius” like he did last week. What a dumbass…

I suspect this is the beginning of our righties trying to whitewash the GOP’s anti-NATO, pro-Russia stance of the Trump years.

Good luck!

I read that only about 1% of the vodka sold in the U.S. is from Russia. A few years ago I switched my allegiance to Tito's vodka. I believe it is made in Texas.

While AOC and Bernie demand the US leave NATO and end imperialist expansion, in an emergency move, the Russian Central Bank has more than doubled its key interest rate from 9.5% to 20% and ordered all Russian companies to sell 80% of their foreign currency revenues. This was done to shore up the ruble, which is at a record low, and reduce core inflation, which is 9.24%. It will only get worse, due to the cost of the war against Bernie and AOC's 'Imperialists'.
