Armed Forces Brewing Company

Here’s a group of thugs accepting donations to build the Armed Forces Brewing Company, a military tribute craft brewing company.
Is it fair to use the word “thug” here? I don’t know, I’m trying to think of the last time I was given a tour of a company’s inventory led by a guy carrying an assault weapon. The buxom woman in the skin-tight black leather adds a nice touch.
The kicker is that the company is looking for a brewery to buy. The photo was staged somewhere. Their products don’t exist and their prospects for success are nil.
But will I lament the loss of the suckers’ money? Not in the least.

My wife believes, and I think she is correct, that what made Trump such an enormous danger to our country and the world in general is that no one ever stopped him. He got away with everything–the lies, the impeachments, the fraud, the opposition from within his own party, and now, so far at least, an act of treason, i.e., an attempted coup.
The meme here exemplifies what we’ve been hearing out of Ukraine, i.e., that their proud and brave citizens are being surprisingly effective at fighting off their aggressor to the east. (A similar cartoon portrays a salmon’s sharp teeth chomping down on the nose of the bear that had just snatched him out of midair as he was making his way upstream. I’ll add it below if I can find it.)
Like this gentleman, I believe that Putin’s outrageous aggression will result in his downfall, and perhaps for this reason he suggests.

I’m afraid you do, Mitt.

As the Russian invasion into Ukraine continues, we find ourselves wondering about the effectiveness of the sanctions that the rest of the world has imposed on the aggressor. Some say that Russia is experiencing a financial meltdown “as we speak,” others claim the effects are minimal. It will be interesting to find out; they can’t both be true.
