The Swamp

Shocked I tell you. I bet it was fun getting on that plane for everyone involved.

Not great, Bob!

what was the actual thought process in getting on that plane? Just...fuck no.

“Nothing to worry about here, the windows are all sealed shut….”

There's a greater than 0% chance that he was dead before he ever got on, right?

They could have at least pretended to refuel in Bermuda and sniped him there. Nobody would have pieced that together for at least a season or two

Or, he didn't actually get on, and it was his people who brought down the plane.

You've just been Shayamalamandingdonged!

There’s enough uncertainty about who was on this thing that I should probably call my mom and let her know I’m okay

I just tried. Can’t get through for some reason

How do you even know Rex's mom?

Man - talk about hubris. What were the odds that this guy wasn't going to see 2024?

Should’ve just rolled into Moscow and gone out in a blaze of glory.

White House national security spokesman John Kirby told reporters that the United States had seen progress near the Zaporizhzhya region in the last 72 hours.

"They have achieved some success against that second line of Russian defenses," Kirby said. He also acknowledged criticism of Ukraine's counteroffensive "by anonymous officials," saying this was "not helpful."

"Any objective observer of this counteroffensive, you can't deny...that they have made progress now," Kirby added.

The Ukrainian military in recent days has claimed success in penetrating Russian lines between the village of Robotyne and Verbove in the Zaporizhzhya region, and Western battlefield analysis have confirmed the gains.

Man that does not seem such a veiled threat. Hope the Dominator is careful.

I know you guys don't like Ben Shapiro but he recently went to Ukraine to interview Zelensky.

Don't agree with most of his views but I've said before, Shapiro is an excellent interviewer. Also, the opening 12 minute segment is the best summary of the current situation that I've heard from anyone.

Fuck Ben Shapiro with a rusty chainsaw, sideways.

I tried to listen, couldn’t get past his intro. I’ve heard him piss me off enough times that hearing his whiny, nasal, arrogant voice agitates me. Actually want to hear this, I need Shapiro’s parts read by that AI newsreader voice.

I’d rather listen to Bobcat Goldthwait explain general relativity than listen to Shapiro talk about anything.

I'm hoping one of those gluttons for punishment has watched this and can give a decent summary. Because yeah, I don't want to listen to anything Ben "Arabs Are Animals" Shapiro has to say.

Edit to Add: I was surprised to see this came out nearly a week ago. If Shapiro had said something dickish or stupid, we'd have learned about it by now. So he was probably fine.

I still can't listen to him, though.

Well the interview itself, it's 90% Zelensky (the interpreter) so skip forward
