this is what he plans to do, destroy it. Everyone needs to do more, whatever sanctions are still out there we need to do them.

Send Russian kids in our universities back to Russia.

There are many World Cup sporting events where Russia needs to be banned.

Some of the kids who will are sent home to Russia (eventually) are the conscripts who didn't know they were going Ukraine and didn't know why they were there when they got there. And some of them are not going home - alive.

When things go bad, he just flattens whole cities. The indiscriminate targeting of civilians and civilian objects is a sign of desperation.
I wished the people of Russia would put an end to this. Many courageous Russians already voiced their rejection of this war but there'd need to hundreds of thousands and millions across the country before anything changes. Putin is turning Russia into a shithole and every Russian will feel the consequences.

Every adult Russian of non citizen status needs to be deported. 15 days time schedule.
Any American citizen harboring a Russian who is required to deport or indicated for expulsion must pay a fine of not less than 5000 for each Russian they are found to be hiding. NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

We don't have trouble doing these for undocumented others within our country. This shouldn't be a problem either.
