If you didn’t pick up your pączki early today, before David Waldman went live this morning, you blew it. You know that when the good bakery over by the pierogi factory runs out, you’ll just need to take your heathen walk of shame over to some “supermarket”.

Russia needs to give up Vladimir Putin, and not just for Lent. Americans and Canadians volunteer to fight for Ukraine. Shell is pulling investments in Russian oil and gas. World soccer’s FIFA is banning Russia from the World Cup. The International Judo Federation is kicking fanboy Putin out. The International Taekwondo Organization is taking Vlad’s fake black belt away. That’s got to hurt! Ukraine's application to join the European Union is being fast-tracked, which qualifies them for the fighter jet discount.

Meanwhile, Ukraine is fierce, Russia is fubar, and Aeroflot is still lost over Canada. Putin’s even lost his “Uber for invading sovereign countries” app. In Russia, hackers troll Russians.  Vladimir Putin is an awful winner, but a horrible loser, and none of this is cheering him up. More brutality, perhaps a few war crimes, and yes, even that isn’t off the table now that Vlad feels cornered.

You know Russia's preoccupied when they can't maintain their fake "grassroots" movements in the US anymore. Facebook and Twitter pulled their anti-Ukrainian disinformation accounts. People have spotted that Russian fake anti-Ukrainians are in fact fake people.

The real anti-Ukrainians are at their borders, hassling and assaulting African and Indian students.

Donald Trump senses that this is the time to take credit for everything. Joan McCarter recalls how it really went down. Ukraine is top of the to-do list for Congress, who now regrets putting off all their other chores to this week too. Ketanji Brown Jackson has been selected by Joe Biden to fill a Supreme Court seat, so expect to be sickened by the usual GQP Senators.

Louis DeJoy spent $6 billion on 6 mpg delivery trucks and laughs himself to sleep each night.

Lunatic Justin Andersch wondered why Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak and his wife didn’t have security when at a local restaurant. Sisolak and others are wondering that today.
