Just finished watching Munich: The Edge of War

Fiction but how close one man came to assassinating Hitler before he started WWII. One man, according to the film, might have stopped WWII in its tracks. Interesting drama with bits of history mixed in. Netflix

We are still on the edge.

I love Claire McCaskill!!

She seems to be a single voice that is willing to say what should be obvious to many that this latest Putin move against Ukraine is really all about trying to harm the Biden administration in an effort to pump up Trump's favorability. Sure, Putin has done this before but we didn't have a pandemic then and Russian economy was not as bad off as it is now. Putin new sees the opportunity to drive a wedge between the NATO alliance because of their dependence on Russian oil. Trump was doing Putin's work when he attacked the NATO alliance now Putin is returning the favor.

Is Putin trying to save his friend Trump from all his legal problems by his moves on

Ukraine and elsewhere? Or is Putin merely taking advantage of all the inside Intel info Trump shared with him as well as Russian bugging of the Oval Office when they visited Trump there and had access to the WH?

There is no telling how much damage Trump and the GOP have done to this country from an Intel and Military perspective. The Russians were all over the WH on their visits with Trump and I am sure those GOP visits to Russia were not all clean.
