I wonder if the Europeans get involved due to US pressure or they also have people from their countries that captured the government and want to get involved for their personal interests.
And most of us with an IQ over 50 smelled it from the get-go.
How much, and where do I sign up?
The defense budget for 2023 was increased by 30 billion, a 4% increase. We surely could use that 135 Billion rounding error for our own military instead of Ukraine’s.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine pales in comparison to the invasion of the US by the entire third world.
I smelled it when all the sheep changed their Facebook profile frames from Black Lives Matter, then to Stop Asian Hate, then to We Can Do It (Covax), then to I Stand With Ukraine.
Like marionettes.
Of all the deficits we run, and there are many, the biggest and most difficult to overcome will be the complete lack of humility.
Coming to possess a genuine sense of humility is a lesson much easier to learn than be taught and we are *all* about to be taught a lesson we’ll never forget.
About the best thing that can happen in the US is to provoke yet another war, and LOSE decisively. That’s what is happening.
The ridiculous, non-stop cheerleading for Ukraine, along with very misleading “facts” regurgitated over and over, make FR look like a weird combination of “The Onion”, “Babylon Bee”, and “Romper Room”.
“Russia stopped being communist with the dissolution of the Soviet Union.”
Explain the Luhansk and Donetsk “Peoples’ Republics” then.

OCEANIA HAS ALWAYS BEEN AT WAR WITH EURASIA.
I am a bona fide Son of American Revolutionaries. At least 24 of my ancestors, men and women, fought to free the American Colonies from British rule. Some died for the cause of liberty. Though two and a half centuries have passed since my great grandfathers and grandmothers took up arms, the principles they fought for remain valid and relevant to the 21st Century. This blog is dedicated to the pursuit of truth without regard to partisan advantage. I welcome like minded patriots.
Question for Timber Rattler:
Can you claim even 1 ancestor who fought for freedom from British Rule?
Before you ask, I know I can't, but then again I am not the one trashing this man either.
It is cosmically ironic Russia is in the process of saving nationalism on the world stage. They are all in on national identity, culture and language while so many traitors in so many countries are hell-bent on globalism which is top-down tyranny under a gentler name.
Globalism means a few tyrants rule the entire world with an iron fist. Russia is actually in the process of saving our unique identities as independent nations. Russia is the enemy of multinational corporations wanting no borders or limits placed on their limitless greed and international tyranny.
Quite a few Freepers are still living in times 30 years ago.
Of course we were going to support Hunter’s War. This is what happens when the President is in the middle of corruption with his prodigal son.
The whole thing is manufactured by the military industrial complex/deep state. We push and push and push Russia, for no reason, until they have to respond....stupidly of course.
The elites will say, this is how we got rid of Putin......Putin is going to die someday anyway. Cheaper to just wait him out and stop lining the pockets of the oligarchs.
And to answer your question, since we're comparing genealogies, I have EIGHT ancestors who fought in the Continental forces during the War for Independence, another great uncle who died on the last night before the Armistice in World War I, and another who was killed by a kamikaze on an aircraft carrier during World War II.
Anything else?
That is exactly my thinking!!! Thank you.
NY Vs NJ. Same same. Let them fight it out amongst themselves. No US involvement
What is your point? You think “peoples republic”, translated from Russian, makes them communist?
You need to get out more.
Well said. But those permanent DC swamp members will never, ever go willingly. Its the nature of ideologues and totalitarians who hold absolute power.
The question then is - does this country have enough Democracy and civil society left to overcome our rapidly growing MIC and highly politicized and centralized DOJ/KGB lawfare/surveillance state?
