cococandy:This is the part that bothers me the most. And it's been a very coordinated effective strategy. Attack the government, to make it the enemy. Attack education and expertise, by attacking elite Universities. Attack truth and information, by attacking media. Attack Laws, by attacking the FBI/DOJ. Now attack the courts. |

budaatum:I'll reply so that you don't delete your moniker and posts. You should read this letter .Michigan is requesting Pam Bondi to investigate two non profits that submitted fraudulent voter registration. FBI took over the investigation from the local police ,then did what FBI is good at.Buried the investigation and declared there was no fraud. https://dtj5wlj7ond0z.cloudfront.net/uploads/2025/03/Smit_USAGBondiLetter.pdf The documents are out there. You will cry bitter tears. |

basilico:You call helping Ukraine fight/defend themselves against Russia war mongering? 🤦🏼 If someone breaks into your house, do you just let them take over or do you get a better lock to protect yourself? You really think German companies are going to let Mexico-built Audis dictate their policy? Please. Mercedes is still investing millions in Stuttgart, and BMW is expanding its Leipzig plant. These companies operate globally, and their profits(directly/indirectly) fund EU cohesion and Ukraine aid. Lol, Scholz's government relies on parties that support Ukraine. He's not going to risk his career to please Trump or anyone else. That's likely not going to happen. Tariffs aren't going to magically fix everything. That companies will just up and move their entire operations to America because of a few taxes on imports!!! It's not that easy. Companies have spent decades building global supply chains. They're not just going to dismantle all that because of tariffs. And what about the cost? Tariffs are just taxes on imports, which means consumers will end up paying more for goods. Do you understand that? |

Botragelad:Russia is using North Koreans as well, their population is more than Ukraine, they have better hardware assets than Ukraine. They are dying so is Ukrainians. At some point they cannot conscript anyone. A whole generation is gone in Ukraine. Unless the EU wants to put men on the battle field, give Ukraine adequate supply of weapons this is just a waste of time. At some point if you have hardware and not enough men it is a waste of time as well. |

Botragelad:Boris Johnson screwed a peace and ceasefire deal back in April 2022 when he visited Kiev. The west wants the war to weaken Russia & forment a Russian uprising to topple Putin.The west is after cheap energy ,grain ,ferlizer and minerals from Russia and Ukraine. If you ever done poetry you'd know I am asking the west whether all the Ukraine lives lost is worth their greed. For the west to own Ukraine minerals ,how many more Ukrainians dead will quench their greed |

cococandy:@bold, this is why you MUST date people who align or share your values so that the home would not be divided and children would be properly raised. I love politics a lot. Our politics must align, I should be able to talk about almost everything with my partner without fear. Imagine dating a MAGA man, it cannot even work because MAGAs are some of the most dumbest and illiterate m.oro.ns to exist on planet earth. Despicable imbeciles. Tueh. I cannot date such gutter people or be around them. |

basilico:What are you rambling about? 🤦♂️ Boldly fabricating lies? Boris Johnson didn’t “screw” anything. Ukrainian officials themselves made it crystal clear that Kyiv didn’t trust Moscow to honour any agreement, especially after the horrors of Bucha were uncovered. Would you trust a regime that invades your country, slaughters civilians, and then pretends it wants peace? do not insult your intelligence here. Talk about Russia’s so-called “peace proposals.” What kind of peace deal will demand neutrality for Ukraine? Abandoning NATO aspirations? These weren’t peace offers, they were demands for submission. Russia wanted Ukraine defenceless and ripe for future invasions. It’s absurd. The only greedy party here is Putin, who can’t seem to keep his hands off other nations’ land, resources, or people. Europe has sacrificed its own economic stability by cutting reliance on Russian energy, hardly the behaviour of a greedy opportunist(Ukraine wise). So how does this relate with your fantasy of Western exploitation of Ukraine(aside Trump recent rant)? Do yourself a favour and brush up on history while you’re at it. Remember the Munich Agreement of 1938? Concessions to Nazi Germany only encouraged further attack. Should Ukraine have handed over its sovereignty just to make Putin feel better? This isn’t rocket science, it’s basic common sense. Why hasn’t Russia withdrawn its troops if it truly wants peace? Why does it keep bombing cities? Stop blaming the West and start holding the actual aggressor which is dictator Putin accountable. |

AmazonTopaz:The truth. I think people's politics reveal a lot about their character, values and faith. I generally have never asked about politics but have never dated anyone who was anywhere close to MAGA. In fact the woman have probably been more "social justice" minded than me. |

basilico:Boris was a mistake that should never have happened. Don't know how he convinced zelensky to fight Russia. Hope he is in the front line leading. And Zelensky went to war cos his account increased overnight in millions with choice house in usa and promised heaven on earth. Maybe he was told he is the saviour of Ukraine whose name will be immortalised. What was he smoking? |

Botragelad:There was no Bucha massacre.It was Ukraine who left bodies in the streets Russians had left 3 days previously the bodies shown were not rotten. Putin is talking about international cooperation at the Arctic circle, Europeans are saying he can't be trusted hence the need for more Ukraine deaths. "Putin will march across Europe with his ragtag army if we don't stop him by aiding Zelensky" says EU. That's their only excuse to continue waging war. Putin cannot withdraw. I've said previously. His Special Military Operation objectives have largely been met _Ukraine is not joining NATO. _Ukraine shale and gas will not replace Russia energy supplies to Europe.The deposits are under his control. _Crimea is contiguous with the Russian federation.He doesn't have to cross the sea now. Who walks away from that? Take it from him if you can. |

feedthenation:Did God create the earth in 7 days? Before he won there was no talk of cessation of hostilities The minute he won , Russia signalled their openness towards negotiations. Effectively the war ended on Nov 7th , but the belligerents on the ground are still duking it out It's like accepting first that you a sinner , then the rest will follow. ![]() |

basilico:Considering where funds them. Butkus also made note of the fact that this comes at a time when the national GOP is intending to make massive cuts to the federal government, including federal-to-state money, of which Mississippi is the second biggest beneficiary behind Louisiana. If Mississippi loses out on that large amount of federal cash, the state could feel the hit across several agencies and programs Butkus said. |

basilico:Are you saying, despite all the independent forensic reports, satellite imagery, and survivor testimonies that confirm Russian forces executed civilians in Bucha, you still came up with this rubbish!! Care to provide a source to back it up?. Bodies showed signs of torture, and streets were littered with corpses while Russians occupied the town. How could kyiv’s officials “leave bodies” as a PR stunt?🤷🏼 Ukraine not in NATO (yet): Because Russia’s illegal invasion accelerated Ukraine’s Western integration. Kyiv now has more NATO weapons than you can imagine. Crimea is not “contiguous” with Russia. It was illegally annexed in 2014. Most of the world still recognises it as Ukrainian. Sorry, but how's Ukrainian shale gas under Putin's control? Russia controls eastern regions, not Ukraine’s energy future. Europe is weaning(sanctions etc) itself off Russian gas because of Putin’s aggression, hardly a win for him. The only thing stopping Putin from withdrawing is his own imperialist ego. Imagine invading a country, failing to take its capital, losing thousand of soldiers, and calling it a “success”. Again, if you were in Ukraine's shoe would you have given in to Putin and let him annex your country . By that logic, the UK should’ve handed Dover to Napoleon to “avoid bloodshed”. Europe’s support for Kyiv isn’t warmongering; it’s called standing up to bullies |

Botragelad:In a war truth is the first casualty. Ukraine was about to eliminate the Russian backed separatists in the East don't forget that. The Azov battalion committed atrocities , In any case the 3 or so regions voted to be under Russia. The greed by the West and their desire to take out Putin incited the invasion with Zelensky moving to join NATO. He is demanding NATO troops on the ground . Western liberals never admit they fuqed up , they been arming Ukraine. Invasion is wrong, I never supported it Take the scores now Putin sits on 20% of Ukraine, who wants to send his soldiers to dislodge them ? Ukraine will continue losing territory. Sanctions on Russia have not worked , EU manufacturing is more expensive because of expensive energy and their stupid new green deal leaving them at the mercy of China. China and India buying Putin oil and reselling to EU at a higher price,talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. Putin is in Ukraine. The oblasts voted to join Russia . Bucha massacre. Look for RT videos. Russia left town 3 days then bodies are fresh? Again ICC would have indicted Putin over the Bucha massacre ,have they? If you believe western media , you should also believe that Biden was mentally competent to the point of seeking a second term. How that work out? You can also believe COVID came from bats 1000 miles away from a Wuhan lab which was doing dangerous research corona viruses aka gain of function . You can also believe the Hunter Biden laptop was Russia disinformation, it was not true and didn't exist I chose which media to believe in , Don't tell me RT is not Russia propaganda, I know it is. Ukraine is losing a generation and all the west says if Putin is not stopped he will roll all over Europe. Stand up to bullies by sending young men to die over a war that should never have started. The areas South East of Ukraine are where the major finds of shale oil were found. Ukraine shut down the last gas pipeline transport through it this year. Russia troops used the empty pipeline to appear behind Ukraine troops in the Kursk region. |

basilico:Are you having a laugh? Why are you ignoring the overwhelming evidence of Russian atrocities in Bucha, and expecting me to take you seriously?https://abcnews.go.com/International/bucha-survivors-recount-senseless-horror-emerge-hiding/story?id=83904795 What you're basically saying is that all the reports, survivor testimonies, and documentation of torture and corpses are just fabrications. What's your evidence for that, then? Do tell. And by the way, RT, that notorious Kremlin propaganda outlet, isn't exactly known for its objectivity, is it? How does Azov battalion justify or excuse the war crimes committed by Russian forces? Another pathetic attempt to deflect attention from Russia's atrocities. Get your lies right. Russia invaded Ukraine before it even joined NATO, and annexed Crimea illegally in 2014. What's the excuse for that, then? And those coerced referendums? Sham elections. If Putin genuinely believed he had popular support, he wouldn't need to rely on military force. And, Ukraine sought closer ties with the West because of Russia's illegal aggression and invasion, not the other way around. Is it unreasonable for a sovereign nation to seek alliances to protect itself from repeated attacks? No, it's not. Those shale oil discoveries in southeastern Ukraine you made mention of, how does occupying those territories benefit Russia if Europe is reducing its dependence on Russian energy? With China and India reselling Russian oil to the EU at inflated prices, that just contradicts your claim that sanctions haven't worked. 🤷🏼🤷🏼 |
