“Renegotiate the post WW2 settlements?”

 

[lecoqsportif]

What part of USAF carpet bombing and 40 years of divided Germany do they not understand?

Kelly Anne “Salacious Crumb” Conway’s alternate facts again, eh?

The Putin-compromised Trumpists are going to erupt over these covers.

They hate the mullahs, even though they are kindred spirits. Though activist women standing up for the rights… it must conflict their hate reflex.

Same reason Ford hates GM and the Celtics hate the Lakers.

No one likes the competition.

Sounds like the kind of South American leader that BeLeafer would be a big fan of.

I thought you hated fascists like Zelenskyy

They hate the mullahs, even though they are kindred spirits. Though activist women standing up for the rights… it must conflict their hate reflex.

I'm old enough to remember when leftists told me that I couldn't criticize those countries that forced women to wear hijabs as it was racist and misogynist as those women were making their free choice to wear.... (remember when France banned hijabs,,,)

the real leftists have no time for democracy.

Shockingly, a Russian was one of his co-conspirators (and also his “life partner”):

Under Germany’s strict privacy laws, the authorities give only initials for suspects’ surnames, but the name they gave for him — “Heinrich XIII P. R.” — and photos and details of the arrests made his identity clear. A Russian citizen identified as Vitalia B., who according to German news outlets was the prince’s life partner, and another co-conspirator identified as Norbert G., were arrested closer to the ancestral home of the prince in the vicinity of Bad Lobenstein, in Thuringia.

There’s nothing Russia and the European far-right would like better than to turn back the clock and make Europe into a bunch of feudal autocracies again.
