This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

It's out there, you just end up paying more for it. You're not getting any deals buying American, but I'm ok with that vs the alternative

Oddly enough, we had two plastic sleds for my girls with big Made in the US stickers. Broke on the first use. My daughter is 2 and weighs no more than 25 lbs.
 
If you click on the link it looks like the count for generals hasn't risen in quite awhile. When you look at the number of officers killed its stunning. What army can sustain leadership losses like this? Majors, Lt. Colonels, and Colonels have to be in short supply. Not that they were probably any good, but some of them must have had command experience in combat. And, I wonder what their Lieutenant and Sergeant loss rates are? They must be staggering. It's another reason why I am not as fearful of this supposed mass wave of reserves coming to the front. Who is going to lead them?

When your leadership and decision making process is so top down driven I think most of these officers are really just there to wear uniforms and keep the troops in line.
 
So many "big" names on there, Amirite?
It was a delegation that went to Ukraine. They are limited in number for pretty obvious reasons…

Anyway, as I’ve said. There’s enough R support for aid to continue with combination with Democrats. The R opposition is in the minority.

When the next aid vote comes up we’ll see who is correct here Joe.
 
Russian ships may aid Black Sea Fleet with long range Zircon missiles.

"Song Zhongping, a former instructor in the People's Liberation Army, said these exercises were meant to test the Russian frigate's long-range deployment capacity for a possible attack on Western air defense systems in the Black Sea.
Song said these Russian hypersonic missiles could pose a major threat to Ukrainian forces and Western allies, as the weapons are capable of penetrating NATO air defense systems and "destroying surface targets in Ukraine."

"It's a great test for the Russian frigate in terms of the vessel's overall sea trial capability, which helps crew members cope with their new and challenging deployment tasks," he said.

Ukraine's Southern Military Command reported that Russia had deployed additional ships in the Black Sea on Tuesday. There are currently 17 vessels, including five missile carriers and two submarines. This number of ships can carry up to 32 Kalibr missiles, the Southern Command reported.

"It is possible the [ship-based] Zircon missile system would be deployed by the frigate to support the Black Sea Fleet, whose combat capability was weakened in the aftermath of the sinking of its flagship, the Moskva guided missile cruiser, [last April]," he told the South China Morning Post."

Song Zhongping can suck a fatty.
 
Mitch?

I’m glad he’s onboard and that the majority of Republicans have been as well. I do worry that they won’t stay the course.

Tucker, MTG, Gaetz, and Trump are really pressing the matter, and Republicans have folded on core issues when their base demanded it.

Yes they are…

But there’s still plenty of R support to keep funding Ukraine. D’s are still all on board…plenty of votes.
