Well we did confiscate some mega yachts. So there’s that

And the US taxpayers are paying to maintenance those yachts while they are stationed in port.

The Russian Oligarchy can now afford even bigger ones though so happy ending!!!

Just an abject disaster. It will take the full 12 years of Trump/Desantis to recover the mystique.
 
I'm all for completely taking all residential property away from REITS.

That should not be allowed.
 
Nice of the fascists to confirm they would face handed Ukraine to Putin on a silver platter.

I think you mean alive as opposed to what many are now.

But at least we got to funnel one last slush fund over to the Ukrainian Oligarchy and our beloved 'elected' leaders here in the US.

The lack of understanding in that tweet is great. Russia's economy is held up with a lick and a promise right now. People point to the Ruble and say it's strong but that's what happens when your imports crater, your only commodity is at an all time high, and you're actively manipulating the currency. It's not a sign of economic health.

Russia has cut the requirement for domestic vehicles to have airbags and cant get replacement parts for its commercial aircraft. It can't get chips which hurts it's ability to produce everything from computers to appliances.

These are not signs of a healthy economy. There's a reason Putin hasn't even tried to hide how furious he is with sanctions. They're hurting Russia badly.

Is a functioning economy one that can't put baby formula on the shelves?

But continue to ignore the additional partnerships being formed between Russia and the CCP/India/Middle East.

Everything is going great!!!
