3/3 #Russia #StonekettleStation

Almost every initial report turns out to be wrong, ESPECIALLY if you're reading it on social media from some guy who heard it from another guy who knew a dude who was the brother of a guy who saw it with his own eyes on CNN for sure.

Wait.

Wait for actual verified analysis.

2/3 #Russia #StonekettleStation

Folks, I'd be VERY careful listening to ANY analysis of the situation in Russia right now. Especially if it's coming from a "Russian Expert" who was yesterday an expert in deep sea rescue who was the week before an expert in vaccines who was the week before that an expert in voter fraud, etc.

Situations like this are very, very fluid.

1/3 Jim Wright of #StonekettleStation posted this on #Facebook about #Russia:

A number of you are asking what I think of the current situation in Moscow.

There are reports of mutiny by certain mercenary units, to wit the Wagner Group, and reports of armed incidents taking place. Whether or not any of this is true and whether or not this is some actual attempt to overthrow the current Russian government or just the usual method of Russian contract negotiation, I couldn't say.

1/3

#StonekettleStation: Piss and Vinegar

Joe #Biden went to #Ukraine.

In the middle of a war.

In the middle of a war waged by Russia.

And oh goddamn were both the Russians and Republicans mad about it.

The symbolism of Biden's visit to war-torn Ukraine wasn't lost on the enemies of America.

(Note: enemies, plural. Foreign and domestic. But I'll come back to that)
