Jake Broe is very good at Jake Broe, adept at providing support for those seeking their confirmation bias, and has far more than a "Democrat streak." Calling America under the Trump-Vance administration a "fascist state" is not just a "streak."
Perusing his entire channel, one finds all those others you might find "very good on Ukraine and Russia." In addition to Rehi, so many of the other YouTube voices like Davydov, the Russian Dude and others appear on each other's channels in interviews.
I am no proponent of Putin or Zelensky, nor of the current governments in Russia or Ukraine, but the tenor of these last years on FR Forums has shown that no third opinion is tolerated by those who find Jake Broe "very good on Ukraine and Russia." One is supposed to be for Z and against P, or one is "insert any name, as I've called them all" here.
Zelensky may pull out a win of some sort. Putin might win somehow. I don't know and adopt the "time will tell" strategy. Because time will tell. The effect on Free Republic and its donors is showing. This quarter I anted in again. The Donor list today shows 110 donors, not much so far. It is fair to ask therefore who has actually made a donation. Have you? Did you through the quarters of last year?
