The free world totters. All that nonsense about past dealings with authoritarian facists ignores the fact that the end game has always been to strengthen our democratic institutions. Now the end game is to destroy them.

You're bitching about the carpeting while the house is on fire. We have abandoned NATO, the UN, and Ukraine in favor of an authoritarian alliance.

You mean, the "You can keep what you took" approach?

I'm pretty sure the U.S. has had a 70 year problem with Soviet/Russian aggression. Mr. Reagan invested quite a lot of time and money on it, if I recall.

I call every day. Only a recorded mesege now.
