The moment today when the European Parliament declared Russia to be a state sponsor of terrorism.

The vote was not close.




Why hasn't the US done this?

2. US Congress can't do a joint resolution because so many of the GOP members

have taken Russian money from Putin for the purpose of assisting their election campaigns.

Putin holds the embarrassing receipts that no GOP member wants made public.

3. Or, maybe we don't want to look like hypocrites,

thanks to Bush's invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan?

8. right there with you GCG

The invasions you said, and don't forget the U.S. condemning the atrocities of Russia/Putin. When we have the history of Torture and the bombing of the civilians in Bagdad into the stone age......................

It wasn't W Bush, he was a puppet.....it was the same good ol' boys: Cheney/Rumsfeld, and a hundred others left over from the Reagan/HWBush period...........

12. B-b-b the "decider" decided.

Never let a single lying, raping, murdering neo-con off the hook. If they're over the age of puberty, they're liable.

10. Bingo

and a ton of money corruptly and illegally laundered/channeled thru the infamous NRA
I would love to see all the other Kompromat that Putin has on the entire Trump Admin and Republican Senators....
Putin is far worse than J. Edgar, and has been collecting stuff for decades..........

7. Plenty of GOP support a state sponsor of terrorism

and openly support an enemy of the US/NATO.
