I’m still pretty stoked for it though. Its high-stakes, extremely non-specific politics seem like a welcome breather.
“YOU WILL DO EXACTLY AS I SAY AND SHOW ME ABSOLUTE LOYALTY.”

“Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall...and get the Mexicans to build a new one around our country instead”.
I was thinking about that show “The Americans” and how they are probably ready to pack it in since the show has become quaint.
That was part of his point!
You missed the news that we are in a Truman show style reality show hosted by Aliens I take it.

Nah, this is the best possible resolution for The Americans.

He’s probably Trump’s handler for the Russians and is currently giving him instructions for how to deal with this.
It is also worth noting that Lavrov is named in the Russian dossier the FBI is (was?) investigating, as someone who was actively involved :) Page 28.
My great grandad is 105 and is still doing porn
Hey now, my 94-year-old grandpa can do a whole bunch of jumps off hills on an ATV.
Wow, this was a depressing read. That so many Americans willfully accept blatant lies.
And he always gets his shot off in under 30 seconds.
