except Kinzinger and Cheney. The leader of the Putin party is still Putin puppet, Donald Trump.

There is an article at Raw Story where Trump, Putin, and the Saudis conspired to keep gas prices high.

Yesterday I heard no less than Chuck Todd complaining how easy war has become. It is interesting to watch a grunt with a javelin take out a multi million dollar tank or a drone going kamikaze on armor. I so wish NBC would send Chuck to the front lines to see how easy war has become.

were operating weaponized drones over Ukraine? Is there a signal that can pick up where the drone is operated from? I'm just curious...

Two stories on DU right now. One is about a drone that crashed in Croatia and damaged 40 vehicles. and then this one.

Any ideas for how we can differentiate between the two?
