Blackout in Moscow: over 600,000 Russians are reportedly without power, according to Russian media. No official cause confirmed yet, but it follows earlier reports of a Ukrainian drone swarm targeting the region.

10. Thanks

Not an unreasonable request, since I didn’t see the story covered by any of the mainstream sources on the Apple News app.

[TheProle]

32. Not to mention, the first 3 are

notorious tabloids. It was a legitimate ask.

[Deuxcents]

4. Ukraine has been putting up with things like this for 4 years so I have no empathy for the Russians. None

[Irish_Dem]

28. Turnabout is fair play. Especially in war.

See how the damn Russians like living in an active war zone.

[Chasstev365]

6. FUCK Putin!

He should be on trial at The Hague!

[Red Mountain]

7. Well past time

to take it home.

Question is....will they blame Putin or Ukraine?

[FakeNoose]

21. They're saying it's Joe Biden's fault

[Irish_Dem]

29. Ultimately Putin. He has lied to them from the beginning.

Ukraine would be easy to invade. Ukraine is weak, evil, powerless.
The Russian military is the best in the world.

Putin's lies are all being revealed.

The oligarchs are not stupid, they know exactly who is to
blame for their dwindling fortunes now that the Russian economy is tanking.

Russia simply does not have the resources to fight a long war.

8. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

Bout time, for ALL the destruction they’ve done on Ukraine, bout damn time, and as someone else posted, FAWK YOU PUTIN. 🤬 🤬 🤬

11. On a side note

Hubby and I are going to see Pat Travers on January 28th

12. Wishin' Y'all a Fantastic Time!

Shake a leg for me!

[Lifeafter70]

13. Last time we saw him live was around 2004

At the Coach house when we lived in Danna Point. I'm looking forward to it.

[ZDU]

14. Safe travels and have a great time!

[ClickClack]

17. Perfect! ZDU, you are hereby recognized as a comedy genius. (eom)

[ZDU]

19. Awwwwww.... blushing. Thank you

[Seeking Serenity]

25. Once-teenage me remembering loving that song.

Always impressed the boys because it wasn't a pop ballad or some such. (I liked "arena rock" as we called it back then.)

[PatSeg]

15. Whoa!

How long will the Russian people put up with this?

[erronis]

16. Are the masses allowed to purchase weaponry like the US?

I doubt there are as many assault rifles, etc. in the russian population.

Strange, since putin worked hard with the NRA to get weapons into the hands of the dumbest people in the US.

[PatSeg]

20. Yes, I'm sure he isn't quite so "gun friendly"

in his own country.

[Brother Buzz]

34. One could make the argument a boatload of weapons are being secreted home by...

Disgruntled Russian soldiers. That is, the lucky ones that survived the Hellhole front.

[Dave Bowman]

18. Ratputin must be thrilled.

[Maru Kitteh]

22. Hmm. Doesn't look like a position of strength, does it.

Looks like fear.



good

[electric_blue68]

23. I do have.....

A modicum of sympathy AND simultaneously; what Putin has put both the soldiers and cvillians of Ukraine through - Moscovites are finally getting a taste of their own medicine!

Maybe it'll start the snowball downhill to push putting out! It's a slingshot, I guess.

[GoodRaisin]

24. Good.

[RandySF]

26. Rain fire and brimstone upon their heads.

[Irish_Dem]

27. Way past due. Moscow needs to be hit hard, very hard.

Maybe the damn Russians will wake the hell up.

[sarisataka]

35. Isn't targeting population centers of war crime

I know I heard it used to be

[Emile]

30. They need to bomb more of Putin's properties.

[applegrove]

33. Zelensky denied he bombed Putin's residence. I'm

with Zelensky.

[Botany]

31. 2022 Ukrainian lie dead outside of a Train station that Putin hit with a missile as they were fleeing the war

The people of Moscow should be thankful that Ukraine only hit their electricity.

[sarisataka]

36. The current temperature in Moscow is 15 degrees fahrenheit

But then again the shoe is on the other foot
