That much-discussed convoy to Kyiv doesn't seem to be getting there very fast:

Even the simplest things in war can be difficult when you are fighting a motivated enemy. But, with that as context, the Russians have made some major errors in tactics, logistics & leadership. Tying up combat power & support forces in a long convoy like this is one of them. https://t.co/oQtAqJ7S5q

"What our elected officials do deeply matters" ... Reason the Ukraine war is "happening now is because of perceived vulnerabilities, perceived weaknesses in the United States ... Perception of divided America. But how wrong [Putin] is."

Here's the latest Conspiracy Theory that Russia is using to try to explain this war to its own people:

Worth noting: Russia has laid the groundwork for this conspiracy theory for years. But its recent incarnation came from an American.

It underscores an undercurrent of paranoia in the West so severe that its followers are susceptible to this nonsense.

And in Canadian news, here's the zombie bite question:

this pandemic just proved y’all would hide your zombie bites if it came down to it

Pierre Poilievre strikes me as the kind of person who would hide a zombie bite from the group.

Charest would seem to have no chance to beat Poilievre, except fo the secret zombie bite problem. Is he electable? What do CPC members think? https://t.co/A0P71lfSxu
