Russia

I liked the world better when it was quiet and boring. The current landscape is anything but as Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime just threatened 14 American targets with nuclear weapons and high on the list is a prime target in Missouri.

I am always up for a good mystery. This qualifies. It's a Russian billionaire's abandoned Illinois mansion. Why did he flee the country and why did his mansion have many hidden areas? Let's explore.

Let's hope this scenario remains science fiction and/or the plot line for made-for-TV movies. A new video theorizes why Missouri would be one of the first prime targets if the Russians ever decided to try and take us out with nukes. Let's explore why.

This will never happen. I repeat. This will NEVER happen. I'm only sharing to help you understand how powerful nuclear weapons have become. A simulation shows what would happen IF Russia decided Hannibal needed to be eliminated.

If you've been following the news lately (*shudder*), you've maybe noticed that relations with Russia aren't great right now. That made me wonder how our part of America would endure a worst case scenario. I have compiled a pretty somber list of the targets in the tri-states that FEMA believes would be in jeopardy if Russia were ever dare to attack us.

I have vivid memories of watching this Civil Defense educational film as a small child. My coworkers? Not so much.
