Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste

I've been around for a long, long years
Stole million man's soul an faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

Stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed Tsar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain

I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made

I shouted out
Who killed the Kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me

Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game


Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint

So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politnesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mm yeah

The Stones musical tribute to Joey Rotten Biden?
The Stones and Sympathy for the Devil were prophetic 55 years ago?

Maybe it's a double entendre, a tribute to joey rotten and lil' donnie trump.

More than $1B in US military aid to Ukraine not properly tracked by Pentagon, DOD audit finds

…..The report, which is partly redacted, does not say exactly how many weapons cannot been tracked. However, The New York Times — citing the unredacted report — wrote the total is about 40,000. The audit said there’s no indication yet that any of the weapons have been stolen or intercepted.

“It was beyond the scope of our evaluation to determine whether there has been diversion of such assistance,” according to the report.

The untracked weapons are subject to what the Pentagon calls enhanced end-use monitoring, or EEUM, requirements. Equipment that falls under the EEUM category requires heightened accountability and security due to its sensitive technology and smaller size, which makes it more appealing to arms traffickers.

The report issued Thursday said the United States had given Ukraine about $1.7 billion in EEUM-designated weapons by mid-202…….

We're:
- weakening a global rival
- defending the freedom and existence of Ukraine as a nation and a people
- attempting to keep Europe's breadbasket from falling into a dictator's hands

All without sacrificing American lives.
