KGB functionary, second banana, president, nationalist, dictator, strongman, mobster, murderer, conqueror, Botox enthusiast, war criminal, world pariah.
My thought is the long desk is to protect him from a bomb or something similar. Remember Hitler's inner circle tried to kill him with a bomb under a desk.
"(Fun fact: There was a four-year period of time when Putin did not put one military toe outside Russia’s borders to engage or intimidate his enemies. He barely even had any dissidents killed abroad during this interlude. For whatever reason, Vladimir Putin—who probably respected Colin Powell, tolerated Condoleezza Rice, ignored John Kerry, and came to a very Russian understanding with Rex Tillerson and Mike Pompeo—never took any chances when Hillary Clinton was the Secretary of State. More on Russian fixation on—and fear of—Hillary another time, but for now, I’ll just say Lizzo was right: we coulda had a bad bitch.)"
Nice summary in the title: "KGB functionary, second banana, president, nationalist, dictator, strongman, mobster, murderer, conqueror, Botox enthusiast, war criminal, world pariah."
For a while now, I have been name calling the (former) GOP Putinistas. I had no idea the word was a thing until I read this. Looks like I made a good choice!
I shared this on FB and twitter. It's a good thing to "know thy enemy."
Looks like I'll just put Fiona Hill's Putin book down the list and wait for the updated edition. From what I'm seeing, he's not long for this mortal coil.
Also, I'm not Jewish, but "Steve Mnuchin’s shiksa" could not possibly be a better description of that woman. 😂
Ahhh, you are on to something Roland! I have one more theory, for another day. In the meantime. YAY JOE BIDEN and his PRESiDENTIAL STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS!!!
My head is spinning…

This person "Moscow Never Sleeps" is a real hero *and* great explainer of geopolitics. America needs to know these Truths about the Little Colonel
