McConnell is old-guard and anti-maga, so naw. Looking at the rest of the Senators I don't think any would even contemplate that. It's not like they brought along Rand Paul or Ted Cruz or the ultra-crazy wing of the House. If Cawthorn or Greene or Gaetz were there though, 100% yes.
Russia angrily shakes its fist at Finland.
Wow, I wonder what else could have a negative effect on Russia-Finland relations. Something like, I dunno, an unprovoked invasion of a sovereign country?Putin stressed that Finland "rejecting the traditional policy of military neutrality would be wrong since there are no threats to Finland’s security," according to the Kremlin.
"Such a change in the country’s foreign policy course could have a negative effect on Russia-Finland relations, which have been built over the course of many years in the spirit of neighbourliness and partnership cooperation and have a mutually beneficial nature."
Hey, that's true...as long as you ignore the mangy bear at the border.
The Winter War and Continuation War were very neighbourly...but I digress, putin is right, Finland should just sit up and do as she's told...Somehow I don't think Finland will do that, and rightly so."Such a change in the country’s foreign policy course could have a negative effect on Russia-Finland relations, which have been built over the course of many years in the spirit of neighbourliness and partnership cooperation and have a mutually beneficial nature."
Yeah, Putin claiming that Russia is not a threat is more pathetic than laughable. While Ukraine is doing far better than many would have expected, and the outpouring of support has been vast, Russia did invade a neighbor without cause. The fact that they did that alone, makes them a security risk.
The good news is, all Putin seems capable of is fist-shaking. Invading Finland before this would still have warranted the EU and US to come crashing down on them like a ton of bricks. Once Finland is in NATO, the only difference is they have to fill out a form first. The only thing Russia gets by invading is the dubious honor of being the first country reduced to ashes in World War III. Considering their nukes are likely held together by duct tape and warm thoughts, they might also be the last country reduced to ashes in World War III.

Unsurprisingly, Ukraine won Eurovision.
Well, time to quickly assblast evey ruskie out of the country so we can have the competition in Kyiv next year.
