"At the peace negotiations in Istanbul in March 2022 with Rustem Umerov, the Ukrainians did not agree on peace because they were not allowed to. For everything they discussed, they first had to ask the Americans.”

More lies and false allegations from the flatulent globalist spambot.
JimRob told you to knock it off with false and libelous accusations against well respected posters. Your next warning will be the ZOT you so richly deserve. Ya dig ?
Here and I thought it was just flatulence coming from your direction. Apparently it's sulphur.
“And yet again you expose and reveal yourself as anti-Constitution, anti-conservative and anti-American, posing and pretending on Free Republic’s site devoted to traditional conservative constitutional values.
I am amazed as to what in the heck you think you are doing here? “
I’m here and supporting FR because I have been kicked off of Twitter. Eventually, all Conservatives or Rightists of any description will be kicked off of all Corporate Social Media and will end up here, or at The Conservative Treehouse, or no-where.
(And the fate of FreeDominion in Canada shows what is eventually in store for FreeRepublic and the Conservative Treehouse.)
The fact that will happen is both a demonstration of the failure of “Constitutional Conservatism” and gonzo libertarianism ‘Da free market, Muh’ capitalism !
I used to believe that Constitutional Conservatism on the US model was the way to go. But the last few years have shown it to be totally failed. It was failing a long time ago. We just pretended not to notice.
This guy went thru the same sort of awakening in 2020 and his video (11 min) explains better than I can how and why the Constitution failed. And why it can’t be revived.

More wall o’spam.
"At the peace negotiations in Istanbul in March 2022 with Rustem Umerov, the Ukrainians did not agree on peace because they were not allowed to. For everything they discussed, they first had to ask the Americans.”
I like firing spam back :)
Don’t be surprised when Ukraine begins to conscript college age girls, send them to a perfunctory basic training, and then to the front lines. As replacements.
“Second, we should remember that our first constitution was the old Articles of Confederation, but they did not create a valid republic, rather, simply a loose confederation with weak to nonexistent national leadership. “
On the contrary, the Articles of Confederation represented the form of goverment that those who fought in the Revolutionary War wanted.
The 1789 Constitution represented an usurpation, never properly ratified, created by elites against the people and illegitimate from the start.
The 1789 Constitution created the National Government from which the current Tyranny has grown.
( 1hr + but worth it to hear how the men who fought in the Revolutionary War were treated after the war was over. Short version - forced into debt via taxes then had their farms foreclosed by Boston Bankers.)

Excellent video.
I'm pretty sure that in the time of Pax Romana, their citizens were 100% certain that they would live and rule forever. Just like so many other societies since humanity walked out of the stone age that no longer exists. England is another perfect example. In the period following the Industrial Revolution when the "sun never set on the British Empire," -- except, of course, until it didn't anymore.
Where are all those great societies today? I'll tell you. They are in the dustbin of history.
Socrates identified one of the big problems of so-called democracy.
That is..........
Socrates’s point is that voting in an election is a skill, not a random intuition. And like any skill, it needs to be taught systematically to people. Letting the citizenry vote without an education is as irresponsible as putting them in charge of a trireme sailing to Samos in a storm.
Just remember. Nothing lasts forever!
One destabilizing element of mass voting is that competing elites constantly try to use the voting system to seize power.
An inherited nobility can have a civil war for control on occasion, but with mass voting it is a constant feature of the system.
I believe it was a month ago when I saw a report that stated they were already conscripting teenaged girls (along with old men). The trolls are denying this, of course.
I see two posts from Brother Joke got yanked (presuming he didn’t request his own spam to be pulled).
He’s clearly become unstable. He also likes to ping people who aren’t involved in the thread.
Yeah, same here. Shouldn’t be long that we hear about them being sent into combat, tragically.
Blinken and Austin are the ones egging them on, to drive thru the minefields while the Russian artillery pounds them.
And not a single sentence is spoken by anyone from the regime on behalf of at least a cease fire.
How do rational people know of such things and not at least begin to ax some questions about it?
Oh. Like you said, they’re in De Nile about it.
You know they’re well past the point of making hsit up when they start their name calling.
He passed unstable a long time ago. When he’s not insulting everyone as “LIARS !” for not viewing the world and facts the same way as he sees them, he goes on those diatribes. He must think we’re all hanging on his every long-winded harangue. I don’t bother reading or replying to most of the nonsense. Add to that, he outed himself as a Socialist when he denounced individuals that had to save their countries from open Communist evil, as if he should be seen as heroic for standing with Allende or the Communist Spanish Republicans. Total derangement.
As you pointed out, too, he openly disregards the request of others to stop pinging them long after they’ve disengaged. Pretty much just your quintessential globalist-Marxist troll.
I’m reminded of then-Sen. Bob Dole’s biting remarks to then-Sen. Fritz Mondale in the 1976 Vice-Presidential Debate about the “Democrat Wars.” It’s quite curious, especially coming from the (self-described) “Party of Peace” that virtually all these 20th (and now 21st) century wars occurred on the watch of one Demonrat President after another. Wilson-WW1, FDR-WW2, Truman-Korea, JFK/LBJ-Vietnam, etc. (or also the NeoCon RINOs, now indistinguishable from the Dems). The push for involvement in the Ukraine, Israel, and (probably) Taiwan is insane. We don’t have the capability to get ourselves deeply ensconced in 3 war zones with our present debauched and dysfunctional military, and certainly don’t have the $$ to be funding these foreign entities AND the military costs for us.
Anything to try to get the public’s mind off of domestic failures across the board and to try to gin up fake popular solidarity to get behind the Pedo’s trifecta of wars and help him “win” in 2024.
My understanding of Soros is that he represents pure evil in the world, not because of allegedly promoting more "open" or "democratic" society, but rather because he works to undermine basic institutions like fair elections and law enforcement and then most evilly, profits from the country's resulting financial collapse.
We can see his evil works in the USA in the election of lawless district attorneys who wantonly free dangerous criminals to prey on their communities, thus driving up crime rates to near record high levels in big cities ruled by Democrats.
What exactly Soros money did in Ukraine, I don't know, but we can obviously see that Ukrainians gradually shifted from attitudes of subservience to "mother Russia" toward one of seeking ever greater independence from "her".
How much of that was unnatural Soros influence and how much was just Ukrainians being Ukrainians, we can't really say.
We do know that Soros was not the only one providing aid to Ukraine. The US government also sent hundreds of millions of dollars in civilian aid each year, some of it intended to fight corruption, and that aid shifted from civilian to military after Vlad the Invader's 2014 takeover in Crimea and the Donbas.
But all that is irrelevant because what matters is that Ukrainians themselves wanted and voted for more independence from "mother Russia", and Vlad the Invader responded insanely with military actions and annexations.
None of that is on Soros, or anybody else, it's all 100% on Vlad the Invader's monomaniacal, empire-building, totally illegal aggressions.
JonPreston: "Many of the participants in Kiev’s “EuroMaidan” demonstrations were members of Soros-funded NGOs and/or were trained by the same NGOs in the many workshops and conferences sponsored by Soros’ International Renaissance Foundation (IRF), and his various Open Society institutes and foundations. "
Sure, no doubt Soros people would claim credit, but they would have accomplished nothing if the vast majority of Ukrainians didn't feel the same way, and support their efforts.
When the Russian stooge traitor Yanukovych unleashed violence on Maidan protestors and then fled to Russia, the Ukrainian parliament impeached his sorry rear end by a vote of by 328 to 0.
That had nothing to do with Soros and everything to do with Ukrainians themselves wanting freedom and independence from "mother Russia's" stifling embrace.
