1. Moscow Moses doesn't strike me as a mustard and kielbasa type

He seems more of a ketchup on his li'l smokie kinda guy.

I feel like we should always spell his name johnson, lower case - unless we can use a smaller font.

2. Well, yeah, but what I desperately need to know is if the Polish Foreign Minister really said this

I looked him up and Wiki says that’s really the guy’s name. So there’s that.

This is a very funny joke about johnson, or as I call him, Li’l Pervy. But knowing the Foreign Minister actually said that would take it to another whole level.

4. If he didn't say it

I'll bet he wishes he had.

7. I'll bet you are right

8. As printed, it was definitely someone who had a Slavic language as his native language

As I have pointed out before, Slavic languages don't have articles (a, an, the, e.g.), and native speakers have trouble knowing when to use them when trying to speak western languages. A native speaker of English would have said, "I cannot believe the fate of the world rests in the hands of a man whose son gets a phone alert when he's.........."

9. Which makes them all the easier to imitate in jest. We just use this knowledge in troll-spotting...

…because trolls have no sense of humor and never make an intelligent jest.

12. According to the mastodon user that posted it, it is a screenshot from CNN

Jake Tappers show. It would have been in the last day or two.

11. It's a shame that TVP World went off the air in December after the election.

I'm certain that they would have covered this development along with the appropriate level of biting sarcasm.

13. No, that screen was Colbert's embellishments of his comments.

I think it was on Wednesday night's show.

5. Sikorski definitely did take Johnson to task for delaying aid to Ukraine.
