Ukrainian intelligence claims there's a plan in place to kill Putin

A plot has been uncovered to kill Vladimir Putin, which would remove him from power and everything else. Ukrainian intelligence service says that Putin is being targeted by a group of "Russian elites" who have already found his replacement. 

Now that sounds too good to be true, but here's hoping.

The Chief Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine believes a plan has been concocted to take out "Charlie Brown Head" Putin because the sanctions are hurting them [except for the wife of the former mayor of Moscow who gave Hunter Biden over $3 million] and the war is also hurting the Russian economy. 

FSB director Oleksandr Bortnikov has been selected to replace Putin, reports the Daily Mirror. The FSB is a home security agency much like our FBI.

Once Putin is removed [as in killed], the Kremlin insiders want to restore economic ties with the West because capitalism rocks and doesn't suck, in spite of what the Left might say. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has also screwed up many old alliances with European and global counterparts.

“It is known that Bortnikov and some other influential representatives of the Russian elite are considering various options to remove Putin from power,” said the Chief Directorate of Intelligence. “In particular, poisoning, sudden disease, or any other ‘coincidence’ is not excluded.”

I like the idea of a drone balloon in the shape of Donald Trump firing an armor piercing guided missile from its butt directly at Putin's car.

The catalyst for the alleged plot may have been the great loss of Chechen troops in the north Ukraine. Over the weekend, Ukraine officials said that part of the Chechen fighting squadron has been sent back to Mother Russia due to the great losses they experienced.

It's kind of surprising that Bortnikov was selected as the guy to replace Putin because they both worked their way up through the ranks of society together, both serving in the KGB in Leningrad, before Bortnikov took over the FSB.

Bortnikov has now fallen out of favor with Putin, over screwups in the Ukraine war. Thus far, Putin has fired eight generals in order to point the blame at them for the bloody war, which has already killed about 15,000 Russian troops in less than four weeks. Putin wasn't expecting the war to last more than a few days at most, but the Ukrainian people are concerned about winning the war rather than worrying about diversity in their ranks.

The elite plotters, according to Ukrainian intelligence, picked out 70 year-old Bortnikov because they believe he could spearhead the restoration of economic ties with the West, and he is nearly a decade younger than Joe Biden. These oligarchs are seriously worried about Russia becoming a pariah state, shunned by the West and having their houses, bank accounts and yachts seized.

Hopefully Putin will be neutralized and the war will come to an end and the Ukrainian people get help to rebuild their country. But let's not forget that Ukraine has its own problems with corruption and their own share of nazis. It just isn't as dramatic as Putin claims.

Biden's past blather may have created international incident as Russia pulls its ambassador

It wasn't just those historical words to Corn Pop that might have resulted in an all-out interracial kerfuffle, but more recently it might be the words about Vladimir Putin's soul, or lack thereof, that may have just sparked an international incident.

In an obeisant interview with George Stephanopoulos [no relation to Nicholas Dellarackkatakkapolous] that aired on "Good Morning America,"  Biden called Vladimir Putin a "killer" and then claimed that in 2011 he told the Russian dictator to his face that he was soulless, but did not go so far as to challenge him to an arm-wrestling match as is Joe's wont. 

It's possible, however, that Biden was exaggerating and instead told Putin, in no uncertain terms, that he likes the way he rides horses without a shirt.

Sounded like his effort to throw down with Corn Pop with the chain. The reality was he was attacking Mitt Romney in 2012 for saying that we should be concerned about Russia.

The U.S. intelligence community released a report this week stating that Putin was behind the influence operation in the 2020 election aimed at helping Trump and hurting Biden. The Kremlin has denied the claim.

This seems to be the modus operandi by the Democrats as we've seen in the 2016 election in which Hillary Clinton vilified half of the country by calling us "deplorables." Russia had nothing to do with her loss--she simply sucks at campaigning and only got to where she is at on Bill's coattails.

We don't know for sure whether it was the intel report or Biden's macho braggadocio that got the Kremlin to recall its ambassador, Anatoly Antonov, for "consultations," but there's little doubt that our current relationship with Russia is strained..

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that relations with the U.S. “are in a difficult state, which Washington has brought to a dead end in recent years. We are interested in preventing their irreversible degradation, if the Americans are aware of the associated risks.”

According to Russian politician Alexey Pushkov, it was Biden’s remarks that caused the rift:

Посол РФ в Вашингтоне вызван в Москву для консультаций – в ответ на оскорбительный выпад Байдена в адрес Путина. Это – исключительный в дипломатии шаг, следующий – отзыв посла и понижение уровня дипотношений. Москва явно настроена на переоценку всей совокупности отношений с США.

— Алексей Пушков (@Alexey_Pushkov) March 17, 2021

Translation:
“The Russian ambassador to Washington has been summoned to Moscow for consultations – in response to Biden’s insulting attack on Putin. This is an exceptional step in diplomacy, the next is the recall of the ambassador and the lowering of the level of diplomatic relations. Moscow is clearly determined to reassess the entire set of relations with the United States.”

Well there you go, Joe. Your "mine is bigger than yours" mentality, [if there's any mentality left in that head of yours] has needlessly put us at odds with Russia. Now it isn't only Corn Pop who's angry at you, it's Putin. You and your puppet masters have really gone and screwed things up.

Do you guys miss Trump yet?

Russians undergo nuclear survival drills as Cold War gets hotter

During the Cold War, American school kids were taught to get under their desks when the air raid siren sounded. The teacher would shout: "Take cover" and we scrambled to the floor.

The desks would protect us from the nuclear blast, the shock wave, flying glass and falling debris. In our minds, we believed our desks could have been used to fight the Nazi tank commander, Rommel, because they were so strong and protective.

But it wasn't the Nazis we were preparing for--it was the Russians.

Now the Russians have stepped up nuclear survival measures as they see us as the possible threat and they are getting their old Soviet-era civil defense plans out of mothballs and upgrading bomb shelters ith their biggest cities.

As far as the Kremlin's Ministry of Emergency Situations is concerned, the Cold War has taken a curtain call. Russia has recently held its biggest civil defense drills since the U.S.S.R. had collapsed. About 40 million people all across Russia were involved with rehearsing a four-day response to chemical and nuclear threats.

Television stations aired videos of emergency workers in hazmat suits and other officials checking ventilation in bomb shelters. Students tried on gas masks and placed dummies on stretchers.

Commentators on state-run airwaves spoke in the strongest anti-American rhetoric in years. "Russia is sick of America's arrogant lies," Dmitry Kiselyov said a month after the Syrian peace plan fell apart. Kiselyov is a well-known and influential Russian.

Ironically, there isn't much coverage on what should be a growing concern over peace in the future. Does Russia know something we don't? Do they know something that our leaders are not telling us? 

Should we worry, or should we continue to cut our military strength?
