We talked about this a few days ago, but let's talk about it again. Donald Trump and others are claiming the reason Vladimir Putin didn't invade Ukraine during Trump's presidency (sic) is that Donald Trump was tough on Putin. Putin was afraid of Trump. Putin respected Trump. This is the most ridiculous babbling brain-dead horseshit... Continue Reading →
Like the United States, Russia has a Supreme Court with justices nominated by the president. Unlike in the United States, Russia's court system is not independent. In the United States, there are three branches of government. In case you're a Republican, like Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville, those branches are congress, courts, and the presidency. They...

Russian President Vladimir Putin requested a phone call with President Joe Biden, which was held yesterday. This was the second time the two presidents talked to each other in December.
