Tonight the world cheer on St. Peters! - YES!!!
Russian forces are halting ground operations towards Kyiv and focusing attacks on the eastern Donbas region, the Pentagon said Friday, a potential indication that Moscow may be paring back its ambitions after a month of stumbles and frustrations.
The renewed focus on Donbas could be a face-saving measure as the Russians stumble and fail to achieve their aims, including the capture of Kyiv and decapitation of its government, by attempting to enlarge territory held by friendly forces. Russian officials have also shifted their rhetoric to suggest Donbas was their top priority.

It's the right thing to do.
Several GOP senators on the Judiciary Committee embarrassed themselves and the Repub party and looked like fools.
Putin's self-proclaimed 3-day takeover of Ukraine is more than a month old...Nobody missed TFG more than Putin.
You aren't...It's time for Chief Justice Roberts to ask Thomas to resign (after his mysterious "illness", of course).
It's probably a long shot for St. Pete's, but hope spring eternal.
Z knows how to get under Putin's skin!
Subpoena Ginni Thomas to appear before the Jan 6 Committee - DO NOT "ASK" HER TO APPEAR, SUBPOENA HER.
And...GO ST. PETER'S!!!
Good - embarrass fed prosecutors who are afraid to do their job!
Justice Thomas should do the right thing - RESIGN!
VIRGINIA THOMAS URGED WHITE HOUSE CHIEF TO PURSUE UNRELENTING EFFORTS TO OVERTURN THE 2020 ELECTION, TEXTS SHOW
By Bob Woodward and Robert Costa
Today at 5:15pm EST
In messages to chief of staff Mark Meadows in the weeks after Election Day, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas called Biden's victory "the greatest Heist in our History" and told him President Donald Trump should not concede.

TFG realized Brooks is running way behind in the polls and he doesn't want to be associated with a loser - whoever wins the Primary, TFG will claim he supported that candidate all along!
On Jan 6 Brooks was stupid enough to give a full-throated endorsement of storming the capitol bldg - TFG returned the favor by putting a knife in Mo Brooks' back.
Two obvious warnings emerge from this narriative: Handle the volatile mix that is Putin with care, lest it explode in a far wider war. And do not let him succeed.
LOL - that guy is better looking!
They are campaigning...voters have to be likewise racists to vote for Graham, Cruz and Hawley.
Help me out here...Russia bombed Ukrainian cities, including their schools and hospitals, and now Russia claims they want to help people who, thanks to Russia's bombs, lost everything including lives.
I hope you heard Sen Cory Booker just before this break - he laid into those senators who never mentioned the National FOP (Fraternal Order of Police) endorsement of Judge Jackson. I was out most of today but caught Sen Booker's comments...I think I detected Judge Jackson using a tissue to wipe away a tear.
All credible news agencies are covering this story - FOX won't go anywhere near it!

A MONTH INTO WAR, PUTIN'S MIND-SET IS COMPLEX - AND DANGEROUS
by David Ignatius - yesterday at 7:16pm EDT
Washington Post
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/03/22/putin-religious-russia-history-ukraine/
We had a president who said "I know more than the Generals" (Sept, 2016), so the architect of invading the sovereign nation of Ukraine probably thinks he also "knows more" than his Generals.
U.S. chip manufacturers will appear before Senate Commerce Committee today and plead for help (subsidize) to build domestic manufacturing.
Why Sen Lindsey Graham thought it was o.k. to question Judge Jackson about her religion is beyond the pale!- in the corporate world anyone who pulled that crap would be fired and the company subjected to a law suit.
You made a good point - right-wing pols are pandering to the extremist in the GOP and 90% of them are not following the hearing.
The strength of the Ukrainians is amazing - they seem to adapt to whatever the situation is.
Cotton, Hawley and Cruz want to be president - THIS is what the GOP has become!
Jordan never fully explained himself and was never pressed to do so.
Excellent response! - It's obvious some of the senators are playing to their voters.
HEADS BEGIN TO ROLL IN RUSSIA
The Hill - 6 hours ago
European sources report that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the house arrest of two senior Federal Security Service (FSB) officers, charging them with providing flawed intelligence on Ukraine and their improper use of operational funds.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/the-heads-begin-to-roll-in-russia/ar-AAVm1nK?ocid=undefined
Sen Mike Lee will be the lead-off senator to question Judge Jackson after the committee's break for lunch.
Good - I hope T covers ALL of Sen Whitehouse's comments/questions.
Isn't there a danger that Twitter will "filter out" important comments?
Sen Whitehouse is hammering home the danger of dark money that puts justices on the SC and remake the nation's courts.
Jim Jordan is lucky House members aren't paid by their output.
Yes he is - he all but said nonsense questions from pols in the clown car are for campaign purposes only.
I believe Thomas should recuse himself on cases his wife is involved in, i.e. conflict of interest.
I do not understand why Gini Thomas has no problem embarrassing her husband.
O.K.
In 1969, Abe Fortas became the first and to-date only Supreme Court justice to resign under the threat of impeachment.
https://www.history.com/news/has-a-u-s-supreme-court-justice-ever-been-impeached?msclkid=375ad9dea97511ec952022a15a1badd1
Abe Fortas resigned because of personal financial scandals, not anything his spouse did that he should have recused himself.
Impeach an appointed (for life) SC Justice because some don't like his wife's activities? - that is nonsense!
NY POST is the print version of FOX - same owner.
SUNDAY MARKS THE SPRING EQUINOX AND SIGNALS LONGER, WARMER DAYS AHEAD
The equinox arrives at 11:33 a.m. Eastern time, but we'll actually have more than 12 hours of daylight. Here' why.
By Justin Grieser
Today at 7:00 a.m. EST
Equinoxes happen twice a year: once in March and once in September.
The reason we have equinoxes is because we do not orbit the sun completely upright.
The earth is tilted on its axis by about 23.5 degrees, causing one hemisphere to receive more of the sun's light and energy at different times of the year.

MIXED SIGNALS FROM UKRAINE'S PRESIDENT AND HIS AIDES LEAVE WEST CONFUSED ABOUT HIS END GAME
Volodymyr Zelensky faces agonizing choices at the negotiating table with Russia. His government is still sorting out what may be acceptable, say U.S. and European officials.
Yesterday at 3:18 p.m. EDT
The secretive rounds of meetings between Russian and Ukrainian negotiators hold the key to ending the conflict but also carry broader implications for European security depending on how the warring parties settle their differences. IF Russian President Vladimir can use military force to compel political change in Ukraine, he could use the same tactic elsewhere, U.S. and European officials fear.
