    Yeah, Russia hollering "terrorist attack!" over a couple of drone strikes when days before they hit Kiev with about fifty of them? When they have shelled any number of Ukrainian cities flat?

    Fuggem.

    Grocery stores need to start relabeling their frozen offerings "Chicken Kyiv." It's so confusing!

    And that right there is why I can’t get upset over alleged drone strikes in Moscow.

    Greta got a tryout on MSNBC at 10 p.m. before Lawrence took over. As usual per her Faux training, she tried to cancel the news and it didn't work.

    She was a buddy of Rachel, which got her foot in the door.

    Greta should go back to arguing daily on CNN about whether the glove fit.

    You mean, this guy?

    In a surprising development to come as the 70-year-old Russian leader’s war against Ukraine approaches 16 months, German investigators who examined Putin's background found that his role as a KGB agent had been greatly exaggerated.

    As it turns out, Putin was actually performing administrative tasks such as “sorting through travel applications for West German relatives” or “searching for potential informants among foreign students,” according to Daily Star.

    Putin was also reportedly tasked with supporting East Germany's Stasi secret police, but the mission failed when the Berlin Wall fell in 1989.

    Putin's alleged heroism and claims of conducting vital missions were first deemed false by Spiegel, a German news outlet.

    The outlet also determined that witnesses familiar with Putin's other alleged KGB heroics could "not be trusted", and that there was nothing in the Stasi archives to suggest Putin was anything other than a "risk-averse pen pusher" for the now-defunct Soviet Union.

    “According to one version, a single small man stood at the entrance to the nearby Stasi headquarters and watched the spectacle from a safe distance,” the German outlet said of one instance in 1989 when protestors attempted to storm the KGB headquarters.

    “It cannot be proved the current Russian president was even there,” Spiegel added.​
