"Geev me munney for new homes" - zElenskyy

Alex Christoforu today: zElenskyy acknowledges that "The Putin" is his Daddy.

And he wants loans, if we cannot "geev him munney".

Hilarious Clown World.

Well excuse me for occasionally being ornery but when confronted with abject stupidity that’s how I sometimes respond. It’s called being human.

Fact: For a relatively modest amount of money, US aid helps Ukraine dismantle Russia’s armed forces without a single American firing a shot or being shot at.

Americans are permitted to retire from the military, fight in the Ukraine, and then return to the military once back in America. I know Americanmedic was killed, and I'm sure the Biden administration knows of others. Also, the techonology we send the Ukraine sometimes requires American military members to operate (missiles etc.)

The amount of money given to the Ukraine as 'foreign aid' is not a modest amount. The US sent Afghanistan a total of 39 million dollars of foreign aid over the course of 20 years. The US has sent 113 Billion dollars in foreign aid to the Ukraine in less than 2 years. Biden/Congress traitors want to send another 39 billion to the Ukraine, even though it's clearly losing the war, and has been for some time.

Russian troops have ravaged Ukraine’s cities, raped its women, and stolen its children.

ransomnote: Boilerplate propaganda like that would be easier to beleive if the Ukraine wasn't known for child trafficking, organ harvesting, sex trafficking etc.

Russian missiles and Iranian drones strike Ukrainian cities daily, often hitting civilian targets.

Western Ukraine was bombing/killing citizens in the Donbass because that location has high numbers of people of Russian descent. So apparently the Ukrainians were just 'cleaning their gene pool' per article 16 of the UKrainie's Constitution:

Instead of sending $100 billion to Ukraine, how about spending that $100 billion, to deport 20 million illegals ($5000 per alien) ?

I follow some things from Hudson.
Sort of an All Voices kind of experience.

Corporate Rand’s pieces about the Swarm, immigration, and other geopolitical forces for many decades have been on point.

Like reading Mother Jones, pieces from Greenpeace, or even listening to NPR, lots of voices is a good thing.
That half of them are like Brain Diarrhea is beside the point.

It’s mostly just MIC NeoCon boilerplate- Funny how you will hear their phrases/talking points all over the place.

And, in case anyone wants to know some background on Ukraine, two great videos.

Ukraine on Fire Part One
Ukraine. Across its eastern border is Russia and to its west-Europe. For centuries, it has been at the center of a tug-of-war between powers seeking to control its rich lands and access to the Black Sea. 2014’s Maidan Massacre triggered a bloody uprising that ousted president Viktor Yanukovych and painted Russia as the perpetrator by Western media. But was it? “Ukraine on Fire” by Igor Lopatonok..

Part two:
Revealing Ukraine. This is why they want to hide their actions over the years.

15.) There are zero American interests in Ukraine.

16.) Ukraine is not a democracy, it is a kleptocracy.

17.) America needs to be concerned about its border before being concerned about Ukraine’s border.

18.) America simply cannot afford paying for Ukraine to steal our tax dollars.

19.) Ukraine is going to lose regardless of how much money and weapons we give them. It’s bad money chasing bad money.

20.) Ukraine is the epitome of an America last policy.

We shouldn't be supporting the Ukraine for countless reasons, but the neo Nazi aspect is the most repulsive. Well, wait - the organ harvesting/child trafficking is up there too.

The Zeepers are getting testy as Ukraine collapses.

It's a slow motion implosion of epic proportions.

Read the article with an open mind.

Having people’s comments yanked because you don’t like them is not “open-minded.”
