Just because Biden denied this (whether he was telling the truth or not) does not make it a conspiracy theory as you claim, you should probably look up what that means.....lol

If you had quoted my full post then your questions would already been addressed

Agreed. "An old saying says the first casualty of every war is the truth." Kremlin says Bucha is 'monstrous forgery' aimed at smearing Russia

This OP is not about John Mearsheimer opinion pieces What’s Missing from Mearsheimer’s Analysis of the Ukraine War July 29, 2022 The three most important are the security imperatives of Russia’s neighbors, the increasing authoritarianism of the Russian state and the true horror of Russia’s brutal war and occupation. By not adequately weighing these factors, Mearsheimer can explain Putin’s invasion of a peaceful, independent nation as a predictable reaction to Western provocations. He blasts the U.S. and NATO response as an overreaction to a limited conflict. Analyzing only parts of the equation, he arrives at a deeply flawed solution: In my understanding, he essentially calls on the West to militarily abandon Ukraine and to cede it to Russia’s sphere of influence. https://www.russiamatters.org/analysis/whats-missing-mearsheimers-analysis-ukraine-war

Yet he's already having second thoughts.............. Now, it seems Musk is concerned that not enough employees are buying into his vision of an“extremely hardcore” Twitter. Bloomberg reports that Musk has been pitching “key employees” on his plans and that he has tapped other leaders “to convince employees to stay” on at the company. 100's have opted for severance "The departures raise new questions about whether the remaining Twitter engineers will be able to reliably keep the service up and running. Current and former employees are already speculating that the latest exodus could further put Twitter’s ability to function at risk, especially with the start of the World Cup a few days away."

But you said below........................ My quote was also from the OP, of course its about Hunter

Republicans have said they will investigate the president's family as a "top priority".

Right so nothing to do with the software engineers you referred to and have no idea how many are employed.

Which conspiracy theories are you referring to?

How many software engineers does twitter employ, was this woman one of those?

Got it, so you have to be a deplorable to sign this: https://twitter.com/donie/status/1592859900941852674

Vladimir Putin’s apologists spread dangerous message The standard-bearer of the pro-Putin realists is John Mearsheimer, a professor at the University of Chicago, who has made a career out of reducing the complexity of global politics to the aggression of self-interested powers. In the process, he studiously ignores their internal politics. One obvious advantage of this approach is that it considerably reduces the amount of research and knowledge that is required to dispense authoritative judgments about the conduct of any particular country. https://www.smh.com.au/opinion/vladimir-putins-apologists-spread-dangerous-message-20150129-130snb.html

UN nuclear watchdog board again urges Russia to end actions at Ukrainian plants VIENNA, Nov 17 (Reuters) - The U.N. nuclear watchdog's 35-nation Board of Governors on Thursday passed its third resolution since the outbreak of war in Ukraine calling on Russia to end all actions at Ukrainian nuclear facilities, diplomats at the closed-door vote said. "(The board) expresses grave concern that the Russian Federation has not heeded the calls of the Board to immediately cease all actions against and at nuclear facilities in Ukraine and requests that the Russian Federation do so immediately," the resolution's text said. Russia and China voted against the resolution while Kenya, Namibia, India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and Vietnam abstained, the diplomats said. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/iaea-board-again-urges-russia-end-actions-ukrainian-nuclear-sites-2022-11-17/

It took 8 years, 8 years in which Russia lied throughout and fabricated evidence and conspiracy theories. Finally justice has been served to all the victims and families. International investigators say armed rebels have limited their inspection of the eastern Ukraine site of the downed Malaysian Airlines flight that killed nearly 300 passengers and crew Rebels 'stealing possessions from MH17 victims' Pro-Russian separatists have been accused of stealing possessions from the victims of MH17 as their bodies lie among the airliner's wreckage. Pro-Russian insurgents are accused of looting personal possessions, as well as taking, tampering with and destroying evidence. Damning Video Shows Pro-Russian Rebels Surprised MH17 Was Civilian

Probably new OP needed for this one. Those that lost loved ones on MH17 are convinced that if the world had taken a stronger stance 8 years ago on Russia the conflict in Ukraine would not be happening now. Russia fabricated evidence and has lied to this day. However justice has finally arrived. MH17: Three guilty as court finds Russia-controlled group downed airliner A Dutch court has found three men guilty of murder for shooting down a passenger jet over eastern Ukraine in 2014, killing 298 people. The missile attack was one of the most notorious war crimes in Ukraine before allegations of atrocities there became an almost daily reality. Many of the victims' relatives believe if the world had reacted differently, and taken a tougher stance against Russia eight years ago, the invasion of Ukraine and the geopolitical instability that has followed could have been avoided. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63637625

Ukraine war: What happened in Poland missile blast? Douglas Barrie, a military expert at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, says there's "credible but not definite" evidence that the missile came from an S-300 system, he points out that the debris pictured shows an end casing with the little round holes, which is a similar pattern found on one of the main missiles fired from the S-300. "Who fired the missile is unclear," says J Andrés Gannon, a security expert at the US Council on Foreign Relations, who agrees that it may be from an S-300 system. "We know Russia has been using the S-300 for ground attacks, even though it's an air defence system, but Ukraine also uses them for air defence against cruise missiles." https://www.bbc.com/news/63648958

Next time you quote one of my posts then do so in full rather than take it out of context. Had you quoted the full post the reference to your question was there. Try again and I may just reply.

But he said he's not the sharpest tool in the box?

So back to my previous post that you disputed:

What does that say to you? ‘Well, we’re not standing in line with a lot of countries that don’t matter.’”

No but I can sense someone who has: Ex-Nato head says Putin wanted to join alliance early on in his rule The Labour peer recalled an early meeting with Putin, who became Russian president in 2000. “Putin said: ‘When are you going to invite us to join Nato?’ And [Robertson] said: ‘Well, we don’t invite people to join Nato, they apply to join Nato.’ And he said: ‘Well, we’re not standing in line with a lot of countries that don’t matter.’” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/nov/04/ex-nato-head-says-putin-wanted-to-join-alliance-early-on-in-his-rule

Nato made it clear that Russia could have applied like everyone else, Putin wanted to but it was Putin and Putin alone who rejected the idea based on his reasoning: ‘Well, we’re not standing in line with a lot of countries that don’t matter.’”

This is why there is an investigation and you should wait for it to finish: “There is no indication that this was an intentional attack on Poland. Most likely, it was a Russian-made S-300 rocket,” Duda said in a tweet earlier Wednesday. Both Russian and Ukrainian forces have used Russian-made munitions during the conflict, including the S-300 surface-to-air missile system, which Kyiv has deployed as part of its air defenses. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/11/16/europe/poland-missile-russia-ukraine-investigation-wednesday-intl-hnk/index.html
