A Ukrainian fighting force known as the "Georgian Legion" trolled MAGA Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in the best way on X Wednesday. Greene posted a video of a nightclub in Ukraine, perpetuating the right-wing conspiracy theory that the war in Ukraine isn't actually happening.
Responding to Greene's assertion that "Ukraine is BOOMING!" and that in "most countries who are under attack, bars and restaurants shut down," the Georgian Legion invited Greene on a special all-access tour of the battlefield.
"Come to Ukraine, we will give you an excursion to the frontlines," was all the post said.

Greene has been the most vocal critic of U.S. aid funding to Ukraine in Congress, going so far as to file a motion to vacate the speakership of Mike Johnson over his support of a $95 billion aid package which included $65 billion to Ukraine.

(12,782 posts)Especially where the civilians are still gathered.
Nightclubs, night-time concerts, and movies were still going strong, albeit underground for the most part, during the height of the Blitz in London. Heck, there were concerts and open bars going on as news was coming in that Atlanta was being surrounded by Sherman's forces, concerts in Charleston as it was being bombarded. Civilians stuck in war zones party however they can to release pressure and keep some semblance of normalcy to give them hope.
So nightclubs in Kiyv, Livyv, or Odessa is not something to be surprised over.

I am all for her and Tuckums and Waters on the front line as pro Russian operatives.

(8,262 posts)Yeah, every single nightclub and dance hall was closed in France 1914-1918, closed in Britain 1939-1945, etc.
Didn't she know Lincoln even went to the theatre 1861 to 1865, though I'll admit that didn't end well...
It's appalling that such an ignoramous is actually an elected member of Congress. If only the Gezpacho police would do something about that...

Military troops and civilians being killed.
They may not be alive tomorrow.
Go have some drinks and fun for an evening.
Or weekend pass.
