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

Article linked on the Biden admin “quietly” debating sending ATACMS to Ukraine.

I appreciate that we boiled the Russian frog slowly, but it came at the expense of Ukrainian lives and territory. And that pot is in a full roiling boil now. Everything short of WMDs and truly next gen technology should be on the table.

Get off your ass Biden
MOAR gif here.
The iron is hot. Start hammering.
 
Proud to say barrels and other components for those howitzers are made right here in River City.

Items manufactured at RIA include artillery, gun mounts, recoil mechanisms, small arms, aircraft weapons sub- system, grenade launchers, weapons simulators, and a host of associated components. These include: Gun Mount M178 for M109A1/M109A2 Self-Propelled Howitzer; Gun Mount M182 for M109A5/M109A6 Self-Propelled Howitzer (RCMAS); M119 Towed Howitzer, 105mm; Spare Parts for M198 Towed Howitzer, 155mm; M242 barrel for Bradley vehicles; and 120mm Gun Mount for M1A1 Abrams Tank.
And, the 155 mm shells are filled in Middletown. I think the warheads for the Javelins, too.
 
This is very long and a couple months old, but don’t remember seeing it then. A first person account of a Ukrainian marine stuck in Mariupol. Should be a movie someday. War starts, he fights, gets captured, survives an execution, escapes, hides in basements for months. I am sure it is embellished as any first person account is bound to be, but it is fascinating and horrific at the same time. If you have the time to spare I highly recommend watching (obviously with cc on).

 
RFKjr. isn't really a Democrat, though. He is a GOP wolf in DEM sheep's clothing.
What is interesting to me is how Russia has been able to turn these assets. Some I understand - purely financial, like Tulsi or Gaetz. The question of how they were able to get to a Trump or RFKJr (who presumably is also generationally wealthy) is more confusing.

Physical threat to family seems more likely.
