Be honest, the US and Russia never had real trade relations. Europe was interested in oil and natural gas, that's it. There were Republican and Democrat American senators there at Euromaidan giving speeches to the protesters. Victoria Nuland was also there handing out food. That's not support? You don't think they threw some money into it? (You don't think the Dems get their supporters to organize and fund Antifa riots, BLM riots, and anti-ICE riots?) The Americans were threatening Kyiv with sanctions repeatedly. Joe Biden was doing that. Wouldn't that be weird if US senators were here giving speeches during the Freedom Convoy protests? Would that seem like there was some kind of "involvement from the US gov't"? Look up, turd. Stop playing games. You know for a fact that the US was working those protests. You'd have to be a complete ret4rd to think that they were sending senators there, from both parties, to urge on the rioters, but they weren't sending money. It's like you've never heard of the USA before now. Russia had no choice but go to war. NATO was inexorably grinding their way to Russia's front door. All that was left to do was establish the final red line. If you only think ahead ten minutes at a time, sure, there was no need for war. Employ your goldfish defence of NATO's actions, and go vote for the Libs, because that's how far they see too. But if you think in terms of generations, and centuries, then what NATO did was way too much. FYI I was a NATO soldier. When I was training, it was to fight Russians. That's it. Al Qaeda and the Taliban weren't even on our radar as warfighters. Maybe for CIA spooks, or CSIS, but not for us. We did recognition briefings on Russian fighter planes, ships, and subs, and no one else's. Not Iran's, not India's, not even China's. Just Russia. And that's in case they were in our waters, not so that we'd know which ship was which when we were going in and out of their f'ing harbours. I'm not looking at this as a trivia question from a faraway land like you are. I grew up thinking that Russia was an enemy to us, and now I see that it is us that is an enemy of theirs. I imagined that one day we might be repelling an invasion of some kind, not going over there to kill people. If I was still in the military, I'd be out now, and there would be war if MP's came to get me back in. I just have no desire to go to Europe and kill Russians for Tory Nuland and Barack Obama. That don't just watch CBC or CNN and repeat their propaganda verbatim. When CBC and CNN are talking, they're lying. There's basically nothing on either channel that's true or accurate. That is never their goal. Their only goal is to control how you think, and sometimes they win.

Sketchy, as in, incriminating?

Imagine if a SWAT team showed up at the homes of the VIOLENT criminals that knocked that TPUSA reporter down the other day, and pointed 17 AR's in their faces... "OMG TRUMP IS NAZI!!!!" But it was the Biden DoJ so 👍😎🥰

Go look up the word lackey... You clearly don't know what it means. FYI Rosemary Barton is a "lackey": she carries the mail for known grifters and traitors. Ditto for Schumer, Pelosi, CNN, CBC et al. Dershowitz is a lifelong Democrat supporter who's merely relating facts that trigger your confirmation bias. /lesson

Be honest. There were permanent trade barriers with Russia, even before the Ukrainian gov't was overthrown in an American-led coup. There were permanent trade barriers with Russia when Zelensky took office, and immediately reaffirmed Ukraine's commitment to the 2019 constitutional amendment that made joining NATO a strategic goal. Russia's war against Ukraine is entirely legitimate. The deaths of all the Ukrainian and Russian soldiers was already a foregone conclusion when Ukraine made that commitment. Zelensky chose this war. Zelensky chose for all these deaths to occur by openly advocating for Ukraine to ally themselves with people hundreds and even several thousands of miles away instead of at least remaining neutral towards his own neighour. Key Warnings Throughout the Years: 1997–1998 (Mid-1990s): George Kennan, the architect of the US Cold War containment policy, warned in 1997 and 1998 that expanding NATO was a "fateful error" that would start a new Cold War and lead to an adverse Russian reaction. In 1997, 50 prominent foreign policy experts signed an open letter to President Clinton calling the expansion a "policy error of historic proportions". 2007: Vladimir Putin stated at the Munich Security Conference that NATO expansion was a "serious provocation" that reduced trust. 2008: Following the Bucharest summit where NATO stated Ukraine "will become members," US diplomat William J. Burns (now CIA Director) famously warned in a memo that "Ukrainian entry into NATO is the brightest of all redlines for the Russian elite (not just Putin)". 2014-2022: Following the annexation of Crimea, many analysts argued that the ongoing push for NATO-Ukraine ties was a "needless provocation" that directly violated what Russia considered its "vital national interests". You keep on acting surprised by the start of this war, and saying that I make all this stuff up myself, or that I just don't know what I'm talking about, but this war, this consequence of NATO aggression, has been well and truly understood for GENERATIONS. All of these deaths were a CONSCIOUS DECISION that was made by the US and parroted by Vladimir Zelensky, may God have mercy on his traitorous soul (just kidding: f-him).

What have CNN or the Dems said in the past 20 years that wasn't a lie?

Yeah, we know. Not "Poor Putin", a-hole. There are 154M people in Russia and they are not benefitting from NATO's war. Why are you bringing Trudeau into this? Stop talking about Russia as if Putin is the only person there If you hate communism and dictators so much then why do you support Sanders, Mamdani, Trudeau, Carney, and the ayatollah? It honestly makes no sense at all. You're like a self-proclaimed vegan who runs a slaughterhouse and only eats veal.

These two comments entirely display your knowledge of the situation...

It was brilliant for Trump to let the Iranian blockade go for so long. All the haters were pumping up the blockade, cheering for the apparent Iranian victory. CNN was doing it. CBC was doing it. The Dems were doing it. Even environmentalists like @cougar were saying that "shooting rockets at tankers is ok if Iran needs to do it to win". So now all the Trump/USA haters condoned the "blocked strait" game for weeks, they declared it the best game ever, and... Trump is winning it now 🤣 He is grinding Iran into dust at this game. Now what, left4rds?

I swear that you just lack the capacity to understand geopolitics. Did you ever play Risk before? Monopoly? What happens when you own all the countries? Or all the lots? FYI Ukraine being in NATO doesn't just pose a physical threat, it's also an economic blow to Russia to lose it to NATO. It's one less country to trade with, and one more to trade with Europe and the US. One less country that Russia can at least have a mutual defence pact with. It's a big deal if you have 13 countries to trade with instead of 3. And Ukraine's economy is huge. Iran trades with China, Brazil, Russia etc... because countries need trading partners. BUT, it's still a MASSIVE thorn in Russia's side that Ukraine shares thousands of km of border with them and Belorussia. And now Belorussia is surrounded. What about when that domino falls? Sure, it sucked when the puny countries got taken over by NATO, but they weren't worth fighting for. Eastern Ukraine is. Putin can't afford to have NATO in Ukraine. And F Ukraine. They're a bad neighbour. BS. Are the Democrats a pro-USA party? I mean, they definitely should be, they all live there, so how could they not? But they clearly aren't. And just like the dems aren't pro-USA anymore, NATO won't be defensive for twenty generations. Or 6 generations. Humans aren't like that. If you look at how slimy and evil people like Schumer and Pelosi are, it's easy to see how the US can't be trusted. Not at all. I support the right of Iranian people to serve in the Iranian army to defend their people. If Gaza had an army that wasn't dedicated to genocide I would support them as well. I support any soldier anywhere that is defending their home. But Russia is the country that's getting backed into a corner here. I understand their need to fight. Ukrainians can go to hell - they're shitty neighbours.

NATO is at Russia's border. When I joined the military, we talked about what we would do when Ivan and Igor came over the hill, not about how glorious it would be to send our armies to Russia. If Russia loses one inch, they can nuke that battle line in Ukraine for all I care. Ukraine is a bridge too far for us. We are not the good guys in this war.

How old are you? Where do you get your information? Please tell me what you think the ayatollah's plans are. Just for shits and giggles. No, Gaetan. What group of people do you love? If you were going to fight in an army, whose would it be, and why? What would you hope to accomplish there?

What do you think would happen if China had the only military on the planet? Are you aware what they did to their own people in the mid 1900s? What do you think would happen if Iran had the only military on the planet? Do you understand what their Quds force is dedicated to achieving? Good, because they haven't killed enough IRGC yet.

But only after Iran and Gaza are finished committing their terrorist attacks.

What do they eat when their moms are put in prison for showing their hair, genius? What group of people do you actually care about? Just Gazans and the IRGC? IOW only people who are dedicated to committing genocide?

OMG look at collusion boy, the CNN/CBC cultist, complaining about misinformation 🤣🤣🤣 What's the matter, do you prefer disinformation? Beavey, did the virus go from bats to humans via the unicorn? Does the vax stop the spread of covid? Does it prevent you from getting sick? Were the conservatives "accusing" Carney of lying about Brookfield, or did Carney lie about Brookfield? Was Biden mentally healthy you f'ing clown? All that you have ever done here is spread disinformation, with a "d". The lack of self-awareness that it took for you to accuse someone else of spreading misinformation is mind-boggling.

Zelensky should be taken out and f'ing shot. He has been throwing lives away for years now, just to gain zero square inches of territory back.

Could happen. There was a huge lag between covid facts and fiction. Sometimes months, but usually weeks. Never mere days.

To be fair, John Brennan wasn't just "some guy", nor was Jim Comey, etc. The US is rife with ex-generals and former intelligence officials with little or no integrity. If Turkish missiles are hitting Israel, Fox isn't talking about it either.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SNAP! Now do the BLM videos, you f'ing POS. Keith Ellison kept the Floyd bodycam video hidden for THREE MONTHS while the state burned. CNN called Brown "the Gentle Giant" for months while keeping his violent store-robbery videos off the air, while the country burned. Did you guys wait 'til you saw video evidence from more than one angle before you all screamed "ICE SHOT THAT STUPID B1TCH FOR NO REASON!!!!" How is it that you're suddenly interested in "the whole story" you God-damned loser?

I need to go buy a mic and a camera now. I have found my true calling. They're in Minnesota, so maybe it's not as bad as it looks. Maybe those people just joined "the religion of peacefully beating up women".

A person that he had an affair with committed suicide.... So now he's entering the DNC presidential primary? Was that your point? You just keep telling half the story.

Right? We need to know how the lawns are doing.

I met him that one time, when I was about 12-14, and he r4ped me. Not true at all: Even from E Caroll's own version of the story, they did not know each other personally. They just recognized each other as "The billionaire real estate guy" and the "self-help column girl" when they met on the street in front of Bergdorf's, about twenty minutes before she asked him to stick things in her cooter. That's right from her book. If she said something different in court, then she lied at one point. They just briefly met at a party somewhere, almost a decade earlier. He didn't admit to "knowing her as a friend or acquaintance".
