"Since Russia invaded Ukraine for the second time in eight years, Russian troops have ravaged Ukraine’s cities, raped its women, and stolen its children."
That's a bullshit lie and you are a bullshit liar for parroting it.

"Russia is our enemy."
Russia is a Christian nation. It is an enemy only to stupid and evil people.

Thanks bro but I’m realistic. Too many Christian Zionists on here and I’m not into that nutso stuff. My own sister is into it and she’s mentally ill. If Free Republic likes that (and no doubt they are major donors) then so be it. But these people are hardly America first and I’m done with their nonsense. Let the chips fall where they may. But I can’t indulge these idiots much longer. Let them ban me I don’t care.

One normally would, but the claim that there has never been more accountability than here, now in this series of funding/arms assistance events is ludicrous.
According to the government we have little or no inflation, no recession, the CPIs are great, employment is great - nothing’s wrong. Ha.... Biden is still giving money to the Taliban in Afghanistan for cripes sake.

--- "Wow they actually removed my comment."
While I have no idea what you wrote which triggered a moderator to "remove" a comment, something irritated....
The article is not filled with facts, in anything other than the polemical way. It is opinion, masquerading as fact. So looking at the Hudson Institute, one learns that it is three short blocks from the White House, for starters. Nothing like being near to the seat of power.
Details:

Fourth Floor

Its leadership is doing quite nicely. "JOHN P. WALTERS, PRESIDENT AND CEO, $ 545,542 salary.
Nice work, if you can get it.
Of the 501(c)3 "charity" which pays no income taxes for being "charitable", one learns of the group. Form 990: With "functional expenses" of $22,325,841 on a gross of EOY $ 86,634,994. or about 25 percent of its total assets to pay its staff and benefits. Source: Hudson Form 990 FY 2022
As to the author, "A native of Missouri, he and his family currently reside in Northern Virginia." He is part of the governmental elite.
Our upper class, deeply involved with the UK as with the US government can be gleaned by reading through Luke Coffey's bio online.

My favorite laugher of the "facts" is:
"Fact: The US is not engaged in a proxy war against Russia."
Why?
"The definition of a proxy war is a war 'fought by states acting at the instigation or on behalf of other states'.”
Got that? Because some other nation didn't tell the US to fund the Ukraine-Russia war these last years, it isn't BY DEFINITION a "proxy war."Because were not "acting on behalf of other states." Though, of course, we are.
Word games for the rubes.
Meanwhile....

"Let’s not forget that Ukraine is the main player in the market of surrogacy, organ predation, and human trafficking, which also feeds the pedophile network. The denunciations of humanitarian organizations leave no doubt about these unprecedented horrors: children are being killed and dismembered to send their organs to clinics in the West; wounded Ukrainian soldiers are having their organs harvested for the same purpose; the lives of innocent creatures are being sold to rich perverts to satisfy their abominable deviations. And we know how much the deep state is composed of characters who can be blackmailed precisely in furtherance of these execrable crimes, a dynamic highlighted by the recent film Sound of Freedom." ~ Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò

Iran, Hamas and NK have nothing to do with whether the taxpayers in this country are getting the proper accountability in the support they are forced to give the Ukraine by this administration. Just another politically-based tidbit to sway opinion and distract. ACCOUNTABILITY.
