Tucker Carlson is one of the few major political pundits who understands the biggest lesson the United States should have learned in the last 20 years: that the last thing we need to do is get involved in another war. America’s tragic disaster in Iraq alone should have taught everyone this, but it hasn’t.
This time, the flashpoint fueling the pundit class’ calls for military intervention is the Ukraine-Russia border.
“[N]ow, as of tonight, we’re moving closer to a war over Ukraine,” Carlson, Fox News’ most popular host, told his audience of millions last week. “In the coming days, Russia may violate Ukraine’s eastern border, and this, we are told, cannot stand.”
The host cited examples of the near-uniform eagerness on both the establishment Left and establishment Right for war in Ukraine. Carlson played multiple clips of establishment figures making these arguments:
-Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff on CBS News: “We will move more NATO’s assets closer to Russia, not further away if they once again bring war to Ukraine.”
- Army lieutenant colonel Alexander Vindman on MSNBC: “It’s just not going to be that simple. I think we should be doing a lot more and we, we shouldn’t be just considering a diplomatic track.”
-Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw on Fox News: “There needs to be clear consequences for what they do because we’ve failed to deter and now you’re inviting conflict. It’s a, it’s a very bad situation and we’ve left ourselves without many options as a result.”
- Republican Rep. Michael McCaul on CNN: “ I don’t think we’re providing the deterrence necessary to stop Putin from invading Ukraine, the breadbasket of Russia.”

Tucker was excellent on this tonite as well
Contrasting the lefts hypocrisy on concerns about border and sovereignty between here and the Ukraine
We Americans are also ruled by thugs and oligarchs. But our rulers HATE us, our heritage, our historical Christian religion. They seek to actively destroy America, flood it with foreigners, spread degeneracy, despoil our economy, and undermine our Christian and historical heritage.
Because of the Bidens’ evil and fraudulent financial dealings with Ukraine(using US aide and having some of it syphoned back into certain politician’s back pockets) and with the attempts by the Ukrainians to try and clean up the mess being stymied after Trump was cheated out of office, I think I see the general real truth as to why the Dems are prodding the world into war with Russia over Ukraine.
A lot of Democrats are about to lose their golden goose and an invasion by Russia threatens to expose everything the Bidens, Obamas, many Dems and certain Republicans have been doing over there.
No American blood should be lost over Democrats’ greed! We are going to be hurt very badly now with the Dems blind greedy rule and lust for power.
Where are the “antiwar” protesters when you need them?
Remember Burisma? If Russia invades, then the Dems foreign aid money laundering machine gets cooked and what Russia discovers will make many Democrats and some Republicans open to exposure or blackmail. No more easy money or “10 per cent for the big guy. More stories out about who Biden had fired will come out.
Biden wants us to fight Russia just to hide his own crooked dealings in Russia. American troops should continue to refuse shots and any upcoming boosters just out of that principle. They will be obeying unlawful orders to fight just to protect Americans’ ongoing financial fraud in Ukraine otherwise.
Democrat Biden we are sore...
We don’t want no Ukraine war!
Meant to say “crooked dealings in Ukraine” but Biden and son had some stuff going on with certain Russians that I remember reading about...stories about a bribe from the wife of the Mayor of Moscow?
Yeah I saw the clips
He has obviously seen the memes !!
