Translation assist?

I have no gift for languages. That said, I do pay attention when we are advised to be wary of trolls from some possibly 'unfriendly' countries. So, when this shows up on a post, should I be concerned the post's origin? Or not?



Edit: Thanks, all. I wasn't able to get google translate to work, so appreciate your efforts.
Next question: Since the language is Russian, is there danger in opening the post?

Brain tickle

You know, the kind where something is trying to nudge itself forward but, annoyingly, doesn't quite make it. Been having that happen every time I saw Mike Johnson and heard him speak, but for the life of me I couldn't make any connection. Then we took a break from the news to watch a couple of saved episodes of Band of Brothers, and one of them focused on a Lt. Dike. Aha.

Somewhere there's a studio

where Randy Rainbow is wondering, "OMG! Where do I even start?!"

It's not as though Trump will suffer any discomfort,

like dining on bread and water or sleeping on a subway grate . . .

Trump's Georgia lawyers and their dripping paint brushes

Fani Willis is remarkably restrained in her testimony. She knows she's being baited, and she's not biting. She and her family have already received multiple death threats, and Trump's attorneys have gone out of their way to paint more and bigger targets on her. Their repeated harping on her habit of keeping cash at home certainly provides a profit incentive to those who might be inclined to follow through on the death threats. By now we shouldn't be surprised that Trump would hire stochastic lawyers. Here's hoping that Ms. Willis and her family have heavy security.

Stuck smack in the middle of downtown Idontgetitville

Can someone please point me in the direction of a clear, understandable explanation of how something that has absolutely no bearing on Trump's guilt or innocence can essentially delay or even end the case against him?

Biden is full of it.

Meanwhile, in the House...

On Cspan, watching the herewegoagain impeachment crap.

And I'm wondering how much taxpayer money is spent on shampooing the carpet on the GOP side where they've all been busily pissing their pants in fear of Trump?
