  1. What sort of sanctions would seriously damage Russia? Sanctions on Russia’s enormous oil and gas exports could cause substantial harm. Russia produces 10 million barrels of oil a day, which is about 10 percent of global demand. It ranks third in world oil production (behind the United States and Saudi Arabia). It ranks second in natural gas (behind the US), according to the US Energy Information Administration.

They cant put sanctions on this. You sanction Russias Gas and Oil? Germany is dead. France too. What happens when the two biggest nations in the EU die? The EU Dies

Only the MSM is all butt hurt over Ukraine. The rest of us don't really give 2 shits. Tomorrow when I watch the news on the DVR I'll fast forward through the Ukraine shit along with the Biden shit, Covid shit, and climate change shit. With a DVR you can cut a lot of shit out of your day.

Calson, Trump and Fox News LOVE the invasion, as they suck at the tit of Putin's shriveled manhood, hoping he and the other authoritarians will throw them some scraps.
