You independently arrive at the republican party consensus every time?

I honestly have no idea how to end this mess. I don't think Putin's actions have the support of 10% of the Russian people, but we're pushing them all into a corner.
Sometimes DECISIVE war is better than sanctions. But you don't go to war with a nuclear superpower easily.
Excuse me, but I did not say, as that poster did, that he wishes Putin was President of the United States. Yea, he said that, proudly, and without any ambiguity.He's a FAR better American than you'll ever be.
You leftists are like this. You can't accept that there are decent people who simply disagree with you. YOU are what makes you a nazi
back a dog in the corner, dog fights.Looks like the whole world is trying to back them into a corner. I wonder if they'll get the response they are hoping for?
Pre-cursor to what they will do against any political opponents. Social Credit System is here now.Mastercard, Visa suspend operations in Russia after invasion
NEW YORK (AP) — Mastercard and Visa are suspending their operations in Russia, the companies said Saturday, in the latest blow to the country's financial system after its invasion of Ukraine.
Mastercard said cards issued by Russian banks will no longer be supported by its network and any card issued outside the country will not work at Russian stores or ATMs.
“We don't take this decision lightly,” Mastercard said in a statement, adding that it made the move after discussions with customers, partners and governments.
Visa said it's working with clients and partners in Russia to cease all Visa transactions over the coming days.
"We are compelled to act following Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, and the unacceptable events that we have witnessed,” Visa Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Al Kelly said in a statement.
Many other companies around the world have also made moves to increase the financial pressure on Russia and its people because of its attack on Ukraine.
"This war and the ongoing threat to peace and stability demand we respond in line with our values," Kelly said.
This sounds ominous. Is the West hellbent on pushing Russia into WW3? Most checking account debit cards are one of these two—Visa or Mastercard. Seems like bad times ahead for the average Russian citizen. Have credit card companies dropped entire nations in the past?
This is why Trump is infinitely better than the Vegetable. Tough TALKING Democrats will talk us into a nuclear war.back a dog in the corner, dog fights.
look like we're going to remember what a war is all about.
No....that's why it's a stupid move...Wonder if they must still pay debt.
all this virtue signaling that in the end, no one but the fucker giving the signal cares about. and they only do cause they think they "gain" from it.No....that's why it's a stupid move...
Its like chopping off your own hand to throw it at somebody. Pure virtue signaling devoid of any real consequence.
I refuse to think that the Russian economic advisors didn't see almost all of this coming. It's the reason Putin spent a month talking to China just before all of this began. As we remove all of the Western institutions from Russian entanglement one by one they will be replaced with bigger and better Chinese institutions. Russia will survive the entire impact of the economic warfare and later on morph into something completely independent of all Western ties. We're actually making them stronger.
I'm sure there are some things that csught Russia by surprise but most of what the West is throwing at them now they were ready for. What would otherwise have taken a decade will now be accomplished in a matter of months as China, Russia, Iran, North Korea and several others erect a monetary system in direct competition with the dollar.all this virtue signaling that in the end, no one but the fucker giving the signal cares about. and they only do cause they think they "gain" from it.
those days are done. we're about to flip quick to the other extreme, as these things do.
What are the odds Russia will pull a Mr. Robot and just wipe everyone's VISA/MC debt?
Republicans want to use financial institutions to steal your money while the Democrats want the Government to rob you blind.Thanks for showing you seldom read what I say. I hate the republican party, just that the democrats are even worse.
Yeah, what will they do about it?This is a corporation war against Russia.
Pure and simple.
Ukraine has a resource that the World Corporations want (it's people) and Russia is destroying them.
But Russia isn't an Empire...it's an Oligarchy with Putin claiming leadership of the Oligarchy. (Tail wagging the Dog)
The Oligarchs are rapidly changing their tune as the EU is seizing their assets and confiscating their bank accounts (even the Swiss ones)
So I don't see this working out for any of them. Especially with the US and EU having a free for all asset grab.
That's gotta be bugging Putin and the Oligarchs.
Through market manipulation and asset denial they will starve Russia into shirt tail poverty and starvation. All the while they will urge, bribe, and even threaten government leadership to do their bidding.Yeah, what will they do about it?
No, what will Russia do about it?Through market manipulation and asset denial they will starve Russia into shirt tail poverty and starvation. All the while they will urge, bribe, and even threaten government leadership to do their bidding.
That's a very good question...No, what will Russia do about it?
