  1. Pardon me for being skeptical. This would be classified and for that matter how would our IC know what is in Putin’s head. Also apparent Ukrainian source.

  2. Putin has had a big smile on his face since the election. And the only place that have nukes pointed at them are the real problem.
    European clown-world.
    This is Baghdad Bob style last ditch propaganda. They don’t have anything else to say. Conventional war is already lost. And their trying to use fear to keep America engaged.
    With Russia stronger than ever. Their supply line secure. With almost all the territory they demanded. And in a position to force the issue all the way to the Polish border if they want.
    But Putin wants Ukraine like we would want Mexico. It’s a quagmire worse than Afghanistan. But more cunning in its corruption.
    No matter, Putin ain’t going to be firing nukes at us any circumstance.
    Although us dropping one on Brussels might be a good start.
    (And I think Trump is in the diplomatic phase of that very thing.)

    • Another one for Davos would be OK too. Although you could probably create the Mother of all Avalanches with a more conventional weapon.

  3. This has been the narrative for years now. It is even less credible now than it was before.
    Nuclear escalation might, maybe, be a worry in the case of the raghead lunatics in Tehran, but it isn’t plausible in the case of Putin. For one thing, Russia is downwind from Ukraine. For another, it doesn’t seem likely he’d put Moscow at risk even for the sake of conquering Ukraine.

  4. File this under “shit I knew 10 years ago when Ukraine was shelling ethnic Russians in its own country.”

    • HEAR,HERE!!!!
      Thank you, Phelps.
      Now let’s do the cartels and China bringing drugs into America.

  5. While the use of nukes has never been impossible it’s very unlikely. Because once that Pandora’s box is open all bets are off…and Putin knows that it would be a Pyrrhic victory…at best. So smart money says he will just bluff about it but not actually resort to it. If the mushrooms ever start sprouting the most likely scenario will be because the irrational muzzies manage to acquire them and THEY are crazy and insane enough to actually use them. And as stated…once that bridge is cross it will be impossible to put the stopper back in the bottle…the bridge will be burned down along with everything else.
