    Putin knows Biden has dementia. The head of his political party said it publicly. So what if he told Biden that he could have an ear phone, that way his handlers could tell him what to say? It would be the same thing since they're the ones running the country.

    Who has noticed the extreme run up in fuel prices once Biden killed the pipelines and ANWR? Biden is personally responsible for oil barons to reap enormous profits from selling fuels to the public.

    We all have noticed it, but you won't get a straight answer from the left in here on that. They'll say "gas prices always go up".

    You realize that Alexander Litvinenko's constant companion was Christopher Steele of the 'dossier' fame?

    When Vladimir Putin visited London about a decade ago, he made sure he had his own bottled water. I don't blame him. Let's just say, London is not a safe place for Russians. After the Scripal poisoning, some Russian tax evaders panicked. They feared they too would end up as an anti Putin propaganda asset for the MI6, so they negotiated a return to Moscow.

    Putin said he didn't care if they returned, as long as they brought back the money they stole.

    Thanks, but I'm not that smart. I just hold on to the ones I wrote, and then I readjust them to the different posts to get my point across. I enjoy doing it.

    what did Trump do that made your 4 years so great? ... I will share if you will ...

    I have been driving since the 70s and they have always gone up (and down) during every Prez I can remember ... source(s) for anything different? ...

    don't remember why I quoted this but I am sure I had a good reason ... I'm getting old ...

    why don't we just give them SAT tests? ... what's the precedent for debating foreign leaders? ... why don't we ask them both for stool samples to check fiber content? ...

    we get it ... Putin is a hero of the right because he and Trump were friends and business partners ...

    How can Biden or any Democrat debate with an honest and intelligent person like Vladimir Putin? Their whole world is wrapped up in propaganda and lies. But that's all that criminals know. They don't know anything else.

    This video is an example of it. In the video Putin responded to Biden in Russian that you think I am what you are. In other words, you think I'm a killer because that's what you are. Well guess how they interpreted it on the video? According to them Putin said it takes one to know one.

    I'd pay good money -- and probably more than a reasonable amount of it, to watch a LIVE, no-bullshit. no-holds-barred, HONEST debate between Biden and Putin.

    Just the two of them with their translators in chairs on a stage, plus, on the side, an independent translator picked by Democrats, and one picked by Republicans -- just to keep everything above-board, fair, and honest.

    After about two hours of THAT, we all might learn a LOT about both these men....

    According to you, anyone who sees the positive aspects in others, and who isn't calling the negative positive, and the positive negative for some political or self serving reason, is adulating? Anyway Vladimir Putin was never the head of the KGB, he analyzed information. When the KGB dissolved, he became the head of the FSB - which unlike the criminal CIA, KGB, and MI6, is purely an Intelligence gathering agency.

    Well, no.
    Putin was not an analyst. He was an operations officer in East Germany and Poland.
    The FSB is the inheritor of the KGB's internal security mission. They are, literally, the secret police.

    Oh come on Zoom, take a look around you. Our whole country is falling apart. Russia will survive the war because it's 'protected' - and very, very big. But they'll suffer also.

    We have quite a few secret police today in the US. But that's beside the point. As for me, I have never come across any criminal acts that I can attribute to the Russians the way I can to the MI6, CIA, and Mossad. I'm excluding the ones propagated by the Western governments such as the Skripals or Navalny, since there is no logic to their accusations and proof is never being presented.

    I think the big thing with the Russian Intelligence is as Putin said, collecting information. Especially through telephone calls, like the one between Nuland and Pyatt. They know everything, and it freaks out the West. But collecting information and knowing everything, doesn't mean you're going to use it in a criminal way - and that's where Western projection towards Russia comes in.

    Anyway this is the opinion I formed.
