Non nuclear destruction of Kyiv civilian populations is the thing I'm most concerned about. Not sure if the west will respond militarily in that case which would be a devastating loss. Pretty sure if a nuke flies, someones gonna shut their shit down with a quickness.
I bet he did standup. That line! Brilliant.Russia cant kill Zelenskyy if they tried, they’d martyr him x 10.000.
“I don't need a ride, I need ammunition!”
- when given given an option to evacuate by the US. In full battle gear too. Its way too late to kill this joker, he is gonna live forever.
I don't know that there would be nuclear retaliation on Russia, but of one thing I'm sure, the pressure to depose Putin would be unabated and successful, probably sooner than later.If Russia sends a nuke into Ukraine its over. For most people on this planet. Russia commands the largest number of nukes at 6500.
Doing the same thing here in Ontario, Canada. The LCBO controls all alcohol here.From updates at NYTimes:
In New Hampshire, where liquor and wine are sold through state-run stores, Gov. Chris Sununu, a Republican, announced on Saturday the removal of “Russian-made and Russian-branded spirits from our liquor and wine outlets until further notice.” In Ohio, where the state contracts with private businesses to sell liquor, Gov. Mike DeWine, also a Republican, announced a halt to state purchases and sales of Russian Standard Vodka.
L. Louise Lucas, a top Democrat in the Virginia State Senate, is calling for “the removal of all Russian vodka and any other Russian products” from Virginia’s nearly 400 state-run Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority stores.
And Senator Tom Cotton, Republican of Arkansas, wrote on Twitter, “Dump all the Russian vodka and, alongside ammo and missiles, send the empty bottles to Ukraine to use for Molotov cocktails.”
The Liquor Control Board of Ontario, Canada’s most populated province, announced on Friday that it would remove “all products produced in Russia” from its more than 600 stores. Similar removals were underway in the provinces of Manitoba and Newfoundland, Reuters reported.
I bet he did standup. That line! Brilliant.
The Russians are fighting to take territory. The Ukrainians are fighting to keep their land. Which do you think is the most motivated?This reminds me of Vietnam. They were used to wars, they weren't going to give in to the US on their soil. The Ukrainian resolve to fight to the death no matter how, in any way they can to maintain their sovereignty appears absolute. Russia cannot win this. There's no way for them to prevail.
He did an Ukrainian version of SNL called "Servant of the People" where he played a parody of the then sitting President of Ukraine.

So, if we thought that this man was bluffing, we are mistaken!
