We have been in a civil war for a very long time and the people are oblivious or just delusional. I don't see Russia or Putin as an Evil Empire. I think that's over. I do see Putin being a nationalist and putting his nation first. He has built Russia up to being a competitor on the world stage. his market is food commodities and fuel. Democrats have managed to destroy just about everything Trump built with the help of Republican leadership. Biden has either given away our most lethal weapons to the Taliban or donated them to Zelenskyy to prosecute his proxy war against Russia. Congress is in lockstep with the madness and it could end up destroying America.
