The US congressman said about the need to destroy Russia "at any cost"
"US Congressman Jamie Ruskin made an extremely Russophobic statement. He believes that Russia must be completely destroyed, and "at any cost."
"As Raskin said, Russia is "an Orthodox country that professes traditional values." The congressman called Moscow
"the world center of anti-feminist, anti-gay, anti-transgender hatred."
"That is why it must be destroyed, regardless of what price the United States pays for it.
That is, if some johns and bills in Kansas or Texas are destined to die for the sake of destroying Russia, then so be it."

I read the translation of the article. How interesting that Raskin is of Russian descent! Hmmm, reminds me of another (possibly) self-loathing and destructive figure in history? I don't want to be too hard on him as he just lost a child to suicide. OTOH, he sounds like an angry guy, a real piece of work. Would not surprise me one bit if he has one of these on his personal car:
Anyway, here's a little bit from his Wiki. I put into bold a section I found concerning. I'd be MIA a good while after such a tragedy. Maybe other people need work to forget their pain.
"Raskin is married to
Sarah Bloom Raskin, who served as the Maryland Commissioner of Financial Regulation from 2007 to 2010. They live in
Takoma Park, Maryland.
[60] She was nominated by
President Barack Obama to the
Federal Reserve Board on April 28, 2010.
[61] On October 4, 2010, she was sworn in as a governor of the Federal Reserve Board by
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke.
[62] She was nominated by President
Joe Biden to assume the chair of the Federal Reserve Board, but Republicans boycotted her committee hearing and
Joe Manchin opposed her because of her leadership on
climate change issues. Given that stalemate, she withdrew her nomination.
[63] She served as the
United States Deputy Secretary of the Treasury from March 19, 2014 to January 20, 2017.
[64]
They have two adult daughters, Hannah and Tabitha, and had a son, Thomas. On December 31, 2020, Raskin's office announced that his son Thomas (Tommy), a graduate of
Montgomery Blair High School, a graduate of
Amherst College, and a second-year student at Harvard Law School, died at the age of 25.
[65] On January 4, 2021, Raskin and his wife posted a tribute to their son online that stated that, following a prolonged battle with
depression, he had died by suicide.
[66][67] In a farewell note, Thomas said "Please forgive me. My illness won today. Look after each other, the animals and the global poor. All my love, Tommy."
[68] Thomas was buried on January 5, 2021.
The following day, Raskin was in the Capitol with his daughter and son-in-law during the January 6 Capitol attack.[69][70] Hours later he began drafting an article of impeachment against President Donald Trump, and six days later, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi named Raskin the lead manager of Trump's second impeachment.[71][72] His book,
Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth, and the Trials of American Democracy (2022), focuses on his son's life and his preparation for the impeachment trial.
[73]
Raskin has been vegetarian since 2009.
[74] He is a
colon cancer survivor, having been diagnosed in May 2010. He received six weeks of
radiation and
chemotherapy, and surgery to remove part of his colon, followed by more chemotherapy through early 2011.
[75] He is
Jewish and descended from
Russian immigrants to the United States.
[76]"
OK, there is a case to be made that he suffers from drug induced brain damage and lifestyle malnutrition. There you go.
