    Tommy runs Russia.

    Billy runs the Russian military, works for Tommy.

    Johnny is pissed at Billy because Johnny thinks Billy is an idiot and is fucking up this war seven ways from Bockpehchne.

    Johnny thinks Billy is lying to Tommy, or has been stretching facts to cover his ocer.

    Johnny has had enough and isn’t going to take it anymore. He’s marching his huge, effective army to Moscow to kill Billy. He’s fine with Tommy.

    Billy, to save his ass, is telling everyone, including Tommy, that Johnny is coming to kill Tommy.

    The second Tommy stops trusting Billy, Billy’s dead.

    And thank the fucking Lord Tump isn’t in the White House.

    At some point this week Trump proposes we send aid to a Russia to protect them from Wagner … right?

    Heaven forbid news happens during sleepytime for American news organizations.

    Blitzer on CNN, but everyone else is comfy and cozy in bed on all other networks for a long time.

    Thank God for BBC.

    Weren't most of the foreign reporters cleared out of Russia once Putin started arresting them?
    It's not an excuse for not covering this, but it could explain the lack of boots on the ground.

    I mean, and it was a story, but we had wall-to-wall Russia for the WNBA player, and this is just a little bit of a bigger story, I think.

    Very funny turn of events. Wonder how much American planning played a part in this.

    I get that the cable nets are annoying as hell, but do any of them even have journalists is Russia nowadays? Especially considering that Putin has essentially banned journalists?
