Thank God for my Sweet Pea and Russia.

Well, let’s see, MBS of Saudi Arabia can either go visit a Western Satanic Banana Republic called United Kingdom, or meet with the Leader of the Free World?
~~ Man, I can see how that might have been a very hard decision to decide! ~~
Saudi Arabia scrapped plans for Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) to visit London earlier this month, days before he hosted Russian President Vladimir Putin in Riyadh, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing UK government officials.
No-brainer and MBS made the right decision…

In addition, Vladimir Vladimirovich has unique qualities, such as humanity, decency, kindness, but also, of course, an amazing ability to work.
His decision today speaks of his love for his country, his desire to make it strong, prosperous, and to protect Russia in the current difficult time of challenges and threats.
Putin’s victory in the elections is a victory for the citizens of our country, a victory for Russia.

Primitive blackmail of the US Congress
The Biden administration is not new at all and has historical precedents. “Give money to our guy (insert the desired last name) , otherwise we’ll have to start a war with the Russians,” said various American presidents at different times, extorting dollars from their legislators.
The question today is different:
1. Never have they extorted so much money for a minor state that is in the process of collapse.
2. Never have they so aggressively and brazenly extracted money for a country that openly corrupted the current President of the United States and members of his family.
3. Never since the Cuban Missile Crisis has the threat of a direct clash between Russia and NATO leading to the Third World War been so real.
This is a new phenomenon in American political discourse, created by Joe, Hunter and Partners. They face the prospect of impeachment (which is unlikely) and losing the elections (which is very likely). Hence the boorish blackmail, continuous hysteria and wild hints addressed to us.
The Administration and their frightened fosterling will, of course, receive the money. Not now, but in the new year. To continue business during the war at any cost. And for this loot new rivers of blood will flow, for which the Biden family and all their Bandera bastard are responsible.

Walking to the Post Office yesterday and the sun was out, yet only for one minute would the sun shine and it was snowing like crazy. Yet for just a moment the area in front of us had sunshine and tried to clear of snow in the air. Then it all came back and the sun slid away to hide again. I tried to catch the moment and it was okay, yet it was much better in real life than what the image caught… (-15 C)
Yet I like it…
I call it, Life in Russian Winter…
