REP. KEATING: I have some questions about our envoy, Steve Witkoff. I mean, he met with Putin at length. He came out of that saying Putin is trustworthy.
That this war criminal is a good guy. That he trusts him. Witkoff even gave advice to Ushakov, a top Putin advisor, on how to flatter our president and how to manipulate our president for the Russians.
That not only provokes concern and feeling on my part that he’s not up to the job, but even colleague on Armed Services Committee on the other side of the aisle, Representative Bacon, said the guy should be removed.
I must tell you, it just reinforces to me that at the end, in Ukraine there has to be some kind of military provision in place, not just words with Putin, to make sure he stops. And this is completely relevant to the Baltics, because they’re next.
@martin_crowson@ExeterChiefs I think Execketerr decided that this was a game they could not lose. The penalties given away helped them to that result, plus some extraordinary luck to make it happen.
@Charlottemorg It’s the only toast I can stomach. I have a gluten intolerance, but sourdough works. GF bread doesn’t do it for me.
Mrs H won’t let me have scotch this early.
