From reports, it seems Putin has gone around the bend.
Begs the question, has he ever been completely sane?
How long before even his closest confidants, as few as remain, see him for what he has become?
An existential danger to Russia as a Nation and to Earth as a viable planet.

The response by "the West" to Russian making war on Ukraine has thus far been inadequate.
It is clear the hypothesis that "economic pressure" would be sufficient to deter a demented tyrant, bent on conquering a neighboring Country, has failed.
The idea that mere economic and financial ruin would deter someone that has lost his ability to reason, lost normal Human empathy and is consumed by his own ego, was, and is, simply it's own form of delusion.
Rather than having deterred the madness that is on full display, it has served only to embolden and make more reckless the actions meant to be deterred.
Further, it should be made clear that ANY use of Nuclear weapons by Putin would be met with a FULL retaliatory strike upon Russian targets.

No, dear NY Times, "The Planet" is NOT Failing. "The Planet" is doing exactly what it is supposed to do in reaction to the egregious mismanagement of Human Kind over the centuries.
Why the panic now? The cackling of the chickens coming home to roost getting a bit too loud to ignore?
And still looking for solutions in all the wrong places.
The article. Read it. Or don't. Subscribe or don't.
The moment of truth approaches for Republican Senators.
Are they Citizens of the United States? Are they Loyal to the Oaths they swore when taking office as Senators and as "jurors" in the second Impeachment Trial?
We shall see if they have the courage shown by the Founding Fathers and by the generations that followed, to uphold the values that formed and, until now at least, continue to form a Nation of Laws and "not of men".
Or, will they choose the path of the craven, to yield to the temptations of "promised power" and vote to acquit a President that promises everything and delivers only rack and ruin?
Will they display discernment, morality and courage, or fall for the deceptions this creature has foisted upon so many others, only to be discarded and condemned when it suits his distorted ends?
