some type of political issue to try to smear me as if i had something to do with it, we re not playing their game. doesn t look like he s police station playing their game, but to condemn neo-nazis in your state, sounds to me like he s taking a page out of donald trump s very fine people on both sides charlottesville playbook here. yeah. i mean, it s so easy to condemn nazis. you don t even have to talk about whether they like him or not. just go, oh, there s nazis, that s bad. if i see someone doing a nazi salute wearing a tiny mustache at a rally, i would say screw those guys. i wouldn t wait to see if they were charlie chaplain super fans greeting each other from a distance. i would condemn them first and then apologize if it turned out they were suffering from shoulder pain and their facial hair was an homage to that one hanes ad.
were charlie chaplain super-fans greeting each other from a distance. i would condemn them first and then apologize if it turned out they were suffering from shoulder pain and their facial hair was an homage to that one hanes ad where michael jordan made that unfortunate choice. look, i don t think ron desantis is a nazi, of course, but i m pretty sure he s counting on every nazi in florida to vote for him next time he runs for president or for governor. so, even if he s not a sympathizer, it s clear from his non-condemnation he would like the neo-nazis to be ron desantis sympathizers. it s unbelievable that he just could not simply condemn them in that moment and move on. but here he is just trying to make it about political theater. and here we are talking about it days later because he just couldn t simply condemn it. on the other side you have rudy giuliani who was unfortunately revealed this week as one of the participants on the masked singer, scarring all of us, i think, for

reporting just in the last half hour and frankly day in and day out, and thank you for doing so, is clearly, totally unacceptable. this is not what you would expect in the 21st century. yet it is what the russians are doing. they miscalculated, they thought they could walk into ukraine, that the ukrainians would greet them as liberators, and this could be over very quickly. it turns out that the ukrainians are proud of their own country, and it is becoming very difficult for the russians to achieve their objectives. because of that, they re resorting to the kind of things that they re seeing on the screens everywhere on our phones, and it is truly, truly devastating to watch. ms. hanes, is there a scenario which by international law here prevails and somebody like vladamir putin and his accomplices are held
