The world is on the precipice of war because this sad little man can't handle his own mortality. Isn't there some Mar-a-Lago-style dacha this evil, psychopathic twerp can retire to? #PutinGoHome
He's like Sator from "Tenet," as @ZarinaZabrisky said on our podcast.

And this pathetic cosplayer 👇 is the guy the GOP has sold its collective soul to. Banality of evil, indeed.
Putin is going to try and pull some violent terrorist shit and blame the Ukrainians, just as he did with the Chechens in '99.

This has always been his M.O.

Putin is copying Hitler, by the way, and hoping no one sees through the ruse.

As has been the case for most of its wars for the last 300 years, RUSSIA IS THE AGGRESSOR.

Does Putin realize how ridiculous, weak, and small this kind of stunt makes him look? It's almost self-satire. The word "laughingstock" comes to mind.
This is fun.

Trump stole taxpayer $ every time he went to the golf course as president, capitulated to Putin on the world stage, killed 750,000+ Americans by sabotaging the pandemic response, and then launched a failed coup to stay in office.

I don't know how much more obvious it could be.
When people realize he's stealing their money, look out, I thought.

When Republicans see he's slave to Russia, look out, I thought.

When people start dying in droves, that will wake them up, I figured.

Nope, nyet, nah.
When Trump tried to topple our democracy—when his besiegers, in his name, took a break from trying to murder the VP and the Speaker of the House to smear their own shit on the walls of the Capitol—that should have been the "I'd like to solve the puzzle" moment.

But no.

On the same day Fascists in the Senate kill the voting rights bill, the Fascist at Fox announces he will return to Budapest to fluff the Fascist running Hungary, Victor Orbán—a former bag man for Semion Mogilevich, head of the Russian mob.
Here again is my deep dive on America's smug, bow-tied despot apologist—bosom friend to dead pimps.

His origin story will surprise you, if you're not familiar with it:

“Who needs a soul anyway? Souls are boring.” —my namesake
To be clear: this is a quote from the #Successionfinale which I’m not spoiling, but was brilliant.

Off topic: Last week, in a discussion about #Succession, my friend @Canissamus compared it to "Arrested Development," and now I can't stop thinking about it.
Remember, the pilot of "Arrested Development" is built around the retiring patriarch announcing who will succeed him as CEO of the family business.
And this is fun...
