3M would have pull her head out of Johnson's ass to do that.
This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

Sorry about the Pepsi. I started a thread a few minutes ago.
Trump can get remain in Mexico up and running but Biden is so useless he is unable to even reinstate this policy?
Remain in Mexico is inconsistent with current law, and can be upended/challenged in Court.
Only reason there were other avenues available was Covid restrictions, which no longer exist.
Trump was also going to get Mexico pay for his failed wall, right?
Why do you need Covid restrictions to do your job and secure the border?
Because there is a specific statute that allows for closing borders during pandemics.
That statute was available in 2019-2021. It no longer applies.
Biden and Senate Republicans negotiated new border laws that MAGAs would not pass because Trump told them not to. Serious Republicans claimed this was one of the best updates to immigration laws in decades. Biden would have signed it.
It would have eliminated the need for challenge-able Exec Orders, and allowed for more resources at the border.
Troops still have to follow the law and accept into the country anyone making an asylum claim.
The Biden/Senate Republican Bill would fix that by limiting daily claims to the number increased detention and hearings capacity would allow. From "catch and release" to "detain and deport," according to Bill author Republican Senator Lankford.
Anyone think US estimates actually miss the mark by that much, or is Zelensky lying?
No idea what is really going on. I do know for fact that Ukraine takes miserable care of children in the orphanage system. At last count there were over 100k children in orphanages. Given the amount of territory, 19000 is about right. Most get kicked out at 16 and to to a combo HS/jr college but many end up being trafficked.
"Three Ukrainian soldiers from the 118th Mechanized Brigade repelling a Russian attack in the direction of #Zaporizhzhia .Soldiers hit the Russian BMP-3 with an RPG-7 grenade launcher and later finished it off with drones"
Ukraine probably can't afford the luxury being able to worry about the supply and maintenance problems of 4 different types of aircraft. (Soviet, F16, Viggen or Gripen and Mirage.)

2 years in and Ukraine still has no air assets online. Haven't seen anything confirming it will happen by summer either.
Big hole in the Ukraine support of the last 2 years.
Interesting thoughts that Russia cannot afford to win or lose in Ukraine.
Russian economy: Moscow can't afford to win or lose its war in Ukraine
"A protracted stalemate might be the only solution for Russia to avoid total economic collapse," one economist says.

"Hungary has signed a deal to buy four fighter jets from Sweden, as Budapest finally prepares to approve Stockholm’s bid to join NATO after nearly two years of delays.
“We not only keep our air defence capability but will increase it,” Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban said in a news conference alongside Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Friday of the agreement to buy four Saab JAS Gripen fighter jets."

Ukraine must be doing better than we realize (and Russia much worse) as Putin is threatening the world again.
