#1 Officials are reportedly concerned that Russia has encouraged Afghanistan’s neighbours not to accept Western citizens in transit to their home countries

The Russian will always be there to lend a friendly hand. Almost comically predictable. Well, almost.

This is precisely why Trump kept sticking it to them despite saying nice things about Putin. He probably figured you don't want to make it too personal against a guy you gotta negotiate with. Problem is this gave the Dems room to fake hawkishness and lost Trump some national security voters. I looked at the way he whacked the Russians in Syria and thought the media portrayal of Trump as a Russian patsy was akin to its portrait of George Floyd the violent drug felon as a gentle giant.

I see the Newsom referendum as a bellwether poll. If Larry Elder wins, the Dems will get steamrolled in 2022. And Trump 2024 will just be a formality.
