Lara Logan, the former 60 Minutes correspondent and one-time Fox Nation host who was dropped by her agent in January for comparing Anthony Fauci to Nazi doctor Josef Mengele, is back with some more controversial comments – that included Nazis.
Logan ... denounced Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky as a “puppet” and called much of the news out of Ukraine “misinformation.”
The interview kicked off with former Fox News Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry explaining the state of play in Ukraine. Henry said Putin “caused a lot of destruction, don’t want to minimize the fact there’s over 2 million refugees. But this has not gone as well as Vladimir Putin expected.”
Logan responded, “I don’t buy it for a second, and I’ll be honest with you. I really think that there’s so much misinformation. We’ve never really seen anything like it.. I’ve been covering wars now for 35 years.”
“And there’s so much more going on in Ukraine that nobody is talking about,” she continued, denouncing the far-right Ukrainian nationalist Azov Battalion, which she claims is funded by the U.S. and NATO.
“I mean, you can find pictures of them online holding up the NATO flag and the swastika. And at the same time, their own emblem contains the black sun of the occult, which was a Nazi SS emblem,” .

Azov Battalion ... black sun of the occult on their body armor
...
CIA under Allen Dulles actually gave immunity from prosecution to the Nazis of Ukraine from the Nuremberg trials.”
“So there’s a long history of the United States and our intelligence agencies funding and arming Nazis in Ukraine. These are not, like, new neo-Nazi groups that sprung up. These are the actual Nazis,”

Agreed. But the point still stands regardless. One battalion doesn’t invalidate Ukrainian sovereignty.
“Nope. She is the rail.”
Well I think she hit every high note in that presentation.
No argument from me. Squeamish choosiness in war is a luxury few can afford. The history of this region in WW II shows that sometimes there are no good choices and expedience is all you have.
“The Azov are Nazis like biker gangs are. It’s more trying to tap into symbolic evil than being real SS.”
If the biker gang had actual history of Nazi collaboration during WW2, you’d have a point.
"Who’s who in the Trump mob: Conspiracists, neo-Nazis and gun activists"
I’m aware of Ukrainian SS units in WW II (as were formed from many other nationalities). None of the Azov guys are in that situation. They’re just borrowing badass.
That's the attack tactic of the moment for leftists, and perhaps unhinged reporters. In Canada the protesting truckers were "Nazis" according to Trudeau. In the USA supposedly supporters of Donald Trump are neo-nazi sympathizers and a danger to democracy along with being "white supremacists" according to the leftists here.
There are probably more radical rightists in the US military than there are in the Ukrainian military.
I have no time for actual Nazis, but a battalion serving under a Jewish commander in chief is unlikely to be full of actual Nazis.
Given the circumstances their alliance against a common enemy was no different than our alliance with Stalin against Hitler.
Thanks for that link.
Bump.
“The deep state split our country into two Americas”
They did much more than that. They have made the people that love America into the bad guys and the people that hate America into heroes.
She is 100% correct. Our deep state will now go all out to silence her. Using the “journo-listers” and the collusion in the MSM to enforce the fake news narrative. Anyone who speaks against the deep state narrative is immediately silenced and denounced. and that is why our 1st amendment is on life support. Corporate collusion with the deep state.
True, but even more than that - they have created a shadow government that is unelected, unaccountable, unconstitutional, and a true domestic enemy if there ever was one. They have overthrown our government and it was all done behind the scenes so that people think we still have our constitution and our government even though we do not.
It wasn’t unhinged. The MSM would consider it as such. She looked really pretty though.
I guess awarding Stepan Bandera “Hero of Ukraine” and Kyiv’s City Council renaming a prominent thoroughfare Stepan Bandera Avenue, might be just more bad ass-ery.
I generally subscribe to the notion that if someone is adamantly telling you what they are, believe them.
It is at Real America’s Voice. On main page today.
She was not on the FOX side regarding covid and the clot shots propaganda.
She was spot on because she has studied the history.
Lara isn’t on the left. You need to get your head on straight.
