Russia informed ahead of time that they were going to show off the country killer weapon without the nuke payload. I hope the folks in the Pentagon are not so insane that they cannot understand just what they are messing around with. The next time Vlad shoots one of those things, that could be it.
This guy is actually legit most of the time. He has a better than 90% rate and is close to the Trump inner-media circle jerk. But its still Russia related news so keep that in mind.

The IRBM test was a well thought out response to the deep state's recent escalation. Notice how ukraine's heralded western air defenses were useless? Message received (at least by anyone with a shred of reason). Those MIRV inert payloads that impacted could have each had a 200+kt nuke on board. Hiroshima would have looked like a picnic on a fresh Spring day compared to that.

We are depending on the Crazy tyrannical Putin to show restraint. How crazy is this, we citizens are watching unelected officials possibly put us into a world war. I wish someone would organize a peaceful protest outside the pentagon

That is the damn problem. Everybody knows that Putin has no problem killing millions of people. He has already done it a few times already. He is showing restraint cause he knows it would be then end of everything and he showed just how easy he can make it happen.

I sure hope Trump is moving behind the scenes to head this off. Putin is crazy, which is scary, but I don't think he is stupid and wants a mutual destruction scenario. Ole Z might have to give up some acreage, but at the same time he has embarrassed Putin so if it ended with Russia getting some small portion of Eastern Ukraine while he intended originally of taking the whole country back to USSR status and failed miserably at that, so if I had to call a winner in the spat, right now, it would be Ukraine. They certainly have given Putin more than he ever bargained for. Hopefully, with Trump negotiating, they can end this very soon. Maybe if he asks, they can call for a truce with no one moving anything or showing any aggression, until after T is sworn in.

The corrupt and arrogant DC establishment is obviously crazier and more tyrannical than Putin in that they have pushed this from the very start. To much $$$ to be made to worry about thermonuclear war...

Yep, it doesn't seem that difficult to understand...for some, their putin hatred overrides common sense. Ukraine couldn't stand up to fly without the U.S. supplying, training, guiding, and backing them each step of the way. We (or our proxies) launched the ATACM's at russia, ukraine doesnt possess that capability...and the establishment is continuing to push hard for nuclear war.

As coldtrail stated, I wish we were organized enough to make our voices heard by the sorry clowns in D.C.

They would scoff at a protest march since they have already told us what they think of real, working Americans. Words like deplorables, garbage, fascists, etc are what these arrogant idiots think of the people in "flyover country". That said, I think we just told them in a way they'll understand back on Nov 5th. Jan 20th can't come soon enough. Let the day of reckoning begin!

I figure Putin would have sent some bombers up with some of their FOAB's deep into Ukraine by now....like Biden did giving Ukraine the go ahead to launch U.S. supplied MGM- 140 tactical long range missiles deep into Russia. Biden might as well have had some of our missile battery teams do the job since Putin is looking directly at us now...

I hope to see the end of Vladimir Putin once and for all. He is a Commie Piece of Shi$ and far and away has different views on life than most all of Us God fearing American’s. I don’t like the Ukraine and think it is corrupt country but Putin is absolutely at fault for crossing the line and invading a sovereign nation. The World was watching Russia mass troops along the border and Putin denied any plans when the Whole World knew he was a Liar. If backed into a corner Putin will obviously use Nuclear weapons so I hope to see His demise and may He be punished for His actions in this Life. I know He will be punished when His soul leaves this Earth!

Fox reported that yesterday.
Question is was it a courtesy information like Iran did or as it in your face I'm gonna do it and nothing you’ll do about it.

I tend to think it was more of we gotta do something to save face so it doesn’t escalate scenario.

He strikes me as the type of guy who would rather nobody live if things don't go the way he wants, regardless of whether Russia's existence is really at stake or not.

Likely did it where we wouldn’t mistake it for a nuclear launch heading our way.
