After all, the last few weeks have seen Biden turn himself into the Russian president's delivery man. Even as more evidence is gathered on highly aggressive Russian attacks against U.S. government personnel, we've seen Biden kowtow to Putin. Biden is refusing to enforce congressionally mandated sanctions targeting Putin's Nord Stream II energy pipeline, he is appeasing Russia over the Colonial Pipeline cyber-extortion plot (for which Putin bears at least some responsibility), and he has begged Putin ...

I”m sure Biden’s attitude towards Putin has nothing to do with:

Just as I’m sure that Germany refusing to come to the aid of Ukraine if needed, has nothing to do with Russia, either

In all honesty I have no idea why the US government is issuing permits for mineral rights in Syria. Last time I’ve checked it is still a sovereign nation.

So we had to hear about Russia and Putin controlling Trump for 4 years including impeachment as this SOB Biden is truly a bitch of Putin and the Russians selling out the USA. When will we punch these scum back?

It’s just outright theft on behalf of the wahabbist rebels. We are in the wrong in Syria and it’s done unimaginable harm to the world with the refugees flooding into Europe.
