If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

ReplyDeleteUkrainian Mig-29’s are reported to only need light modification to use AGM-88’s. Also, reports of 17 air defense systems destroyed last weekend…plus 5 more on Monday.
