The story goes that Meghan Markle was a yacht girl, and that 1-2 of Harry’s old chums encountered her at the yachting scene. Instagram is where aspiring yacht girls display their wares.

“… Ukraine believes there is anywhere between $300 billion to $500 billion in Russian assets for the taking…”

if the yachts ever hit open water, they are a legitimate target to Russian submarines. The owner has the right to destroy his own property if stolen.

First, that's not going to happen, whereas Russia may well end up losing hundreds of billions to repair the damage they're doing to Ukraine and it's people, and;,

Second...why do you care if Russia forfeits those funds or not? It's not a Versailles-style unpayable indemnity because the money is already there.

Sounds like this war is all about money. Big grab bag that everybody is taking from. Good thing our politicians have family members that have been consulting in the Ukraine, they already know what the real problems are.

What is your position on getting Crimea back for Ukraine?

We signed an agreement with Ukraine that said we will ‘Never’ accept a Russian Crimea.

Are you in for the long haul of getting disputed land back?

If we go down this road of economic thievery it’ll destroy confidence in the global economy.

Hey...wait a minute......carry on sir.....faster please.

Chin, you never fail to disappoint. You have nothing better to do than log into FR and spout leftist Democrat talking points all day.

Opposing Moscow's aggressive expansionism is something on which Republicans used to agree, until a cultish splinter group went down the Deep State/Q rabbit hole so far they now side with Russia, the CCP, Iran, and North Korea.

The West is not the Dad of the world. They're finding that out, right along. Losing the economic war they started is painful, even though they won't admit it.

The U.S. is part of "The West", and so are most of our allies. But using the second person means that doesn't include you, so where exactly are you from?

Get the oligarch yachts first and auction them off to the Arabians. With high oil prices they are very flush these days. Tie up the mega yachts in Dubai for inspection. Then hold the auctions.

My bid for a prime yacht starts at $100,000,000. But the yacht must include the yachting girls

So, you are not only into theft, but human sex trafficking as well?

In case you haven't noticed, we're not at war except in the fevered rhetorical dreams of the resident Moscow lobby.
