Grabbing migrant workers and raiding prisons for HIV and syphilis infected rapists and murderers to send to the front while the rich populous hides in Moscow unaffected so far almost seems almost too heavy handed for a dystopian novel.

I have to admit, despite the buffoonery and the absolute mess he made with his policies I have mad respect for his stance on Ukraine.
It makes me feel dirty…and I like it.

"The Twitter account NOELreports, which provides updates on the war in Ukraine, tweeted how Kyiv's forces had destroyed a bridge near Melitopol on Sunday which was one of the main supply routes for Russian forces.
The bridge was reportedly attacked by U.S.-supplied HIMARS when a convoy of Russian vehicles had passed through.
Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, former commander general of U.S. Army Europe shared the tweet, adding in the message that the move was "part of disrupting the 'land bridge' and isolating Crimea, which Russia seized in 2014.
"This is a step towards the employment of long-range precision fires which will make Crimea untenable for Russian forces," he added.
Newsweek has contacted Hodges and the Ukrainian defense ministry for comment.
Moscow's forces occupy parts of southern Ukraine including Melitopol and the city of Mariupol, which link Russia to its own border via the peninsula and is a key supply route."

Seoul, South Korea CNN —
"NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg on Monday asked South Korea to reconsider its rule on not exporting weapons to countries in conflict so it could help arm Ukraine in repelling Russia’s invasion.
“I urge the Republic of Korea to continue and to step up the specific issue of military support,” he said in a question and answer session after a speech to the Chey Institute for Advanced Studies in Seoul.
“Several NATO allies who had as a policy never to export weapons to countries in conflict have changed that policy now,” Stoltenberg said, citing Germany, Norway and NATO applicant Sweden as those which have changed their arms export policies to help Ukraine.
“After the brutal invasion of Ukraine, these countries changed their policy because they realized that when you are facing a brutal invasion where a big power – Russia – invades another one in a blatant way as we have seen in Ukraine, if we believe in freedom, if we believe in democracy, if we don’t want autocracy and tyranny to win, then they need weapons.
“When the full-fledged invasion happened last year, many countries changed their policy because they realized that the only way to stand up for democracy, to help Ukraine prevail, and to create the conditions for a lasting peace was to deliver military support.”

“When you put these three types of tanks together and you bring them in real numbers into Ukraine, and I would estimate there will be at least 100, maybe as many as 200, by midspring, call it the end of March, that creates real problems for Putin,” he said.
“With these tanks, the Ukrainians can mask that armor and use it to punch through the Russian line, separate them, peel them apart, break the logistics chain,” he said.
He also noted that transfers of the tanks mark a “pivotal” moment in the land war and will be a “bad day” for Putin with the conflict itself and in seeing the West’s unity. "
Looks like God smiting them.
