Please wake up to the number of countries Russia has invaded before Ukraine. It is a long list.

Now do the US.

Now do the UK.  :chuckle:

The most common non-religious holiday in the world is Independence (from the UK) Day, which is celebrated, on average, about every 5.5 days.

Back to Russia, in that neighborhood, they have invaded Czech, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary ('56), Ukraine, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Finland, Georgia, and Kazakstan.  They committed genocide in Ukraine and Kazakhstan. 

It is little wonder that most of the former Warsaw Pact nations RAN into NATO's arms, and why Ukraine wants in (along with, now Sweden and Finland).  Russia has a long and bloody history in E. Europe, including in Ukraine, and no sensible person can fail to understand why Ukraine wants in NATO.

There is also Russian invasions in Georgia, Dagestan and Moldova. What do they have in common? I will let the Putinistas guess.

US House Oversight committee
The Bidens’ Influence Peddling EVIDENCE

the Committee on Oversight and Accountability has accelerated its investigation of the Biden family’s domestic
and international business practices to determine whether the Biden family has been targeted by foreign actors,
President Biden is compromised, and our national security is threatened. Records obtained through the Committee’s subpoenas to date reveal that the Bidens and their associates have received over $20 million in payments from
foreign entities.

Maybe you just didn't know
about all the evidence gathered and presented so far?

  But alas, he is still in office and the congressional impeachment proceedings have lost steam.  Why? 

Or is the Bidenjustice department and others obstructing the investigation? Maybe you just didn't know
about all the evidence gathered and presented so far?

Shame the artist didn’t drew graveyard crosses in the background amidst the ruins and burned out landscape.

Texan, please remind us of which countries NATO has invaded. Just to confirm that we both understand what you have written.
