Me.'s JournalIMHO American 'Journalists' Are Behaving Like Jackasses This Morning
Of course Putin must go. Any fool can see that or should we wait until he has killed as many people as Stalin. Not to mention the pain and suffering he has inflicted on countless numbers. The Russian journalists I saw on CNN this morning think so yet ours have their hair on fire. There is such a negative push against our president. This Week opened by asking the Ukrainian minister what we were doing wrong. FRankly, after a sampling of all the the biggies I just feel like smacking them. Petreaus was the smartest of them all and I bet even he was not telling all he thinks because while the statement is being described as a JOe gaffe, I think it was an absolutely directed message. And don't forget how hard tried to get rid of Joe.
Silent Minute Of Prayer
“The power of prayer cannot be underestimated especially if done across the world at the same time”. The Silent Minute of prayer for peace was observed when the chimes of Big Ben were played on BBC radio at 9pm each evening during the Second World War, starting on Sunday 10th November 1940. This was initiated by Major Wellesley Tudor Pole with the support of King George VI, Sir Winston Churchill and The US President Franklyn D Roosevelt. The Silent Minute was observed by millions of people. To quote the Major, “There is no power on earth that can withstand the united cooperation on spiritual levels of men and women of goodwill everywhere.”

“The Silent Minute was an historic movement begun in the United Kingdom by Major Wellesley Tudor Pole O.B.E. in 1940. It continues today as a London-based charity following its revival by Dorothy Forster. During the Second World War people would unite in meditation, prayer or focus (each according to their own belief) and consciously will for peace to prevail. This dedicated minute received the direct support of King George VI, Sir Winston Churchill and his Parliamentary Cabinet. It was also recognized by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and observed on land and at sea on the battlefields, in air raid shelters and in hospitals. With Churchill’s support, the BBC, on Sunday, November 10, 1940, began to play the bells of Big Ben on the radio as a signal for the Silent Minute to begin. “

And why not...if you have the inclination and time to take a minute at nine each evening and say a prayer for Ukraine and all the people being affected by this hideous war...
"First sign of oil price relief: UAE says it wants OPEC to increase production"
On hearing this oil prices dropped 12% in the US and the report I head today gave Biden credit for the turnaround on this but is it being touted in the media? NO!Also, the trump loving Saudis are being brats about this
“New York/Abu Dhabi (CNN Business)The oil market has been stretched incredibly thin, with few producers willing — or able — to replace Russian barrels banned by the United States and shunned by others. Enter the United Arab Emirates, which suggested it may be coming to the rescue.
The UAE's ambassador to Washington, Yousef Al Otaiba, told CNN Wednesday that the country wants to increase oil production and will encourage the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cartel to ramp up supply.
Otaiba's comments sent oil prices dropping like a rock Wednesday. US oil fell 12% to less than $109 a barrel. Brent crude, the global benchmark, fell 13% to $111 a barrel. It marked their steepest one-day decline in nearly two years.
If the UAE convinces its partners to turn on the spigots, it would mark a turnaround for the cartel, which at its meeting last week with allied producers — a group known as OPEC+ — agreed to stick with a plan of gradually adding oil to the market, defying pressure from developed economies to do more to ease prices.”

If Russians Don't Believe What Is Happening In Ukraine...It's Because They Don't Want To
Just like the MAGATs in this country. It's an inconvenient truth aided and abetted by a willing/willful ignorance.

Gen. Mark A. Milley At Airfield Near Ukraine Where Missles, Stingers...Being Delivered
“ NEAR UKRAINE’S BORDER — Some 14 wide-bodied aircraft transported a bristling array of Javelin antitank missiles, rocket launchers, guns and ammunition to an airfield near Ukraine’s border on Friday, as the United States and European allies ramped up their efforts to give the Ukrainian military a leg up in battling a foreign enemy that far outguns it.
The top U.S. military adviser to President Biden inspected the weapons transfer operation in an unannounced trip, meeting with troops and personnel from 22 countries who were working around the clock to unload the armaments for transport by land to the Ukrainian forces.
The American weaponry, which included the Javelins as well as small arms and munitions, was part of a $350 million package that Mr. Biden authorized on Saturday; within two days, one official said, the deliveries were landing at an airfield near the border that can process 17 airplanes a day. What began as a trickle — with only two or three planes arriving a day — is now a steady flow, the official said, with 14 loads from one airfield alone.
Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, included a stop at the airfield as part of a trip to the region. As he spoke to troops, cargos of Javelins rolled behind him. Nearby, two C-17s, the enormous cargo workhorses of the U.S. Air Force, sat on the tarmac.”

"Most speech watchers say State of the Union made them feel optimistic, proud - CBS News poll"
“Most speech watchers say State of the Union made them feel optimistic, proud - CBS News poll”
By Jennifer De Pinto, Fred Backus, Anthony Salvanto, Kabir Khanna
Most Americans who watched President Biden's first State of the Union address approved of what they heard, and many said it made them feel optimistic and proud.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/poll-state-of-the-union-speech-watchers-reactions/
“A 71% majority of Americans who watched President Joe Biden's State of the Union address had a positive reaction to the speech, according to a CNN Poll conducted by SSRS, with a more modest 41% reacting very positively.”
https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/01/politics/poll-joe-biden-state-of-the-union-reaction/index.html
There will be naysayers, of course, but considering he went into the speech with a 37% approval, I'd say this is very good news for him.
The Consequence Of An Evil Intent Isn't Always What Is Desired
Putin and tfg have arranged for just about the entire world to unify. Now even Sweden and Finland are considering joining NATO. I had no expectations of ever seeing this coming together of all these nations of the world and yet, those two despicable beings have been the catalyst for an unbelievable transformation.
