  16. Once again NBC running cover for our corrupt president Joe corruption biden

  17. When war mongers argue it never ends well

  18. Putin must have many concerns. After he failed to take Ukraine quickly. I fear those within may be looking for a change in both power and direction of the country.

  19. They already stopped and turned back 😂

  20. It's time for all the Russian soldiers to turn their tanks and equipment around and go back to Moscow and take your country back from these morons and dictators that in prison you put you in harm's way murder thousands upon thousands of your citizens for no good reason it's time for you to take your country back please do it freedom's never free but it's worth every drop of blood that's spilled to keep it free and keep you free so why don't you be free Russia why don't you be free now's the time you'll have no better time

  21. I think mercenaries would have had a tougher heart. But no. They should learn something from the Taliban but they cannot because they fight for inferior reasons. Losers all around

  22. Fact is the head of Russia army wants P and Wagner dead, it’s clear he’s saying the head of military has lied to putin and the war was not needed and the Russia people don’t approve it eather…

  23. Rah rah roast Putin!

    Not so sure about a brown girl but the poison dwarf is about to get something in his ring very shortly now I think 😬🤞🤞

  24. Are they mounting an investigation into Putin's actions? So many innocent people are caught up in this fiasco.

  25. Putin is getting owned by our commander in chief 😎

    Something is fishy going on.

  27. Where are all the pictures ? No casualties in this uprising ? Couple oil reserves blown up. Something isn’t right

  28. Raf sounds tired… Russias got some stuff goin on….

  29. In Ukraine, people sleeping peacefully in their beds were killed by a Russian rocket tonight. Why are you not interested in what kind of people these were and their lives? They just wanted to live. Instead of the truth, you provide information about the meanness of Russians as top news and justify Russian criminals, turning their crimes into a TV show. Your information resource does not have adequate professional journalists and is not able to provide high-quality truthful material to its viewers. .

  30. He makes a deal with Putin, He will have no life, by threatening the tsar. He will get stabbed in the back , but Russia will continue to be very unstable afterwards.

  31. The Russian people need to unite and take their country back

  32. If you can’t fight your own war than don’t start one. In the end God will judge.

  33. At the starting of the week atomic talk you hear them speak
    it’s only Monday
    Negotiations breaking down see those leaders start to frown its sword and gun day
    Tomorrow never comes until it’s too late
    Could be sitting taking lunch and news will hit you like a punch
    it’s only Tuesday
    Tomorrow never comes until it is too late

  34. У Пуціна побач з ім былі блізкія людзі, у тым ліку дзеці, атруцілі значна менш. Я б не давяраў Пуціну, але я мяркую, што ракеты, якія атакавалі вашу пазіцыю, былі такімі на мінулым тыдні
