BAHDAHBING! Russian navy sinks warship--their own

If your memory sucks, you need to take notes and keep them handy--ask Joe Biden, he'll tell you [in a whisper]. In this case the Russian navy should have taken notes as to the whereabouts of their sea mines in the waters near Mariupol because one Russian naval captain did a Joe Biden and ran right into one of those babies in the Black Sea.

A landing craft is reported to have become scrap metal when it hit a Russian sea mine. The crew is said to have survived the incident, but let's face it, the Russian military commanders have become the Keystone Kopps of the Sea. If it isn't a missile doubling back on its launcher and making mince meat of the launch crew, it's the navy forgetting where they put their mines.

"Near Mariupol, a landing craft of the Black Sea Fleet D-106 blew up on a mine," a Telegram channel related to the Russian navy said.

'Waiting for a confirmation of this suicidal goodwill gesture,' said the Twitter account English Luhansk, mocking Russia's previous withdrawal statements.

Yes, it's a veritable clusterfrack, the likes of which should make Russian President Vladimir Putin put his shirt back on to hide his pectoral blush.

For Putin's part, he will probably tell the Russian press that it's a new high-speed submarine conversion system.

It looks like the Moskva, another Russian warship that went down April 14, will have company. That was the ship that approached Snake Island, told the Ukrainian military on the island to surrender and was told to "go f**k yourself" by the brave Ukrainians.
