Vladimir Putin may be upset to discover that his hotly anticipated state-of-the-nation address delivered this morning in central Moscow was not quite as impactful as he would have hoped.
Almost one year to the day of his invasion of Ukraine, the despot took to the stage in Moscow before both of Russia's houses of Parliament and a sea of military commanders, where he launched a marathon tirade against the West.
He spoke with passion and venom, but even the cream of the Kremlin crop couldn't help but show signs of fatigue as top officials were seen yawning amid their president's 115-minute-long rant.

This is exactly why we must get involved in WWIII in Ukraine.
“marathon” “115-minute-long rant.”
What a wimp, Castro used to go on for over twice as long.
Yup... Nuclear annihilation would do it for sure. No people = No Globohomo
Not my preference... Parents with common sense would be a suitable solution.
Biden takes that long to slur 5 incoherent words.
Well, that’s not as bad as a speech delivered by Biden, where even Biden himself falls asleep during his delivery, not knowing what the heck he just read.
It’s The Zeeper Daily Mail!!!
Did they bring over Jeb Bush to speak?
Jerod, I think he is paying attention because he knows we are on the edge of the apocalypse….thanks to the illegitimate psychopaths running the US.
Biden often falls asleep during his own speeches.
Should we be on the lookout for a new rash of accidental falls from upper story baloneys?
