‘I need ammunition, not a ride’: Zelensky declines US evacuation offer
New York Post ^ | Feb 25, 2022

The US government offered to evacuate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky from Kyiv — but he declined.

“The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride,” Zelensky said, The Associated Press reported, citing a senior American intelligence official with direct knowledge of the conversation.

Zelensky, 44, instead chose to remain in Ukraine’s capital as Russian forces brought the fight to the city streets, where gunfire and explosions were heard overnight Friday into Saturday.

Uncle Joey is quite naturally performing all of the task the Russian and Chinese assisted leftist DNC and RINO deep state fraudulently placed him there to do.

Even while many countries haven’t gone along, or have changed their mind.

Within a couple months of the fraud being inaugurated, Uncle Joey shot down a number of significant US energy projects and lines in process.

Within a few months of his fraudulent installation, Pedo Joey told Germany to open N-2 for Moscow. However, right now Germany itself has cut off use of Nordstream 2

The EU put significant sanctions on China last summer. Uncle Joey would not go along.

Neutralization of US global influence needed to be sped up, so Uncle Joey has organized with foreign front NGO’s across Latin America, to fly and bus as many illegal immigrants to points across the US as possible - like KGB Franky Davis’s protege Obama, only bigger.

To really screw up and neutralize US armed forces, supreme objectives .d purpose needed to be shifted to forced LGBTQ indoctrination, quotas, and mass investigation and filtration of patriotic and conservative servicemembers. Again, finishing what Clinton started, and Obama championed.

Uncle Joey was only doing what he was told, but we abandoned Americans, and turned over nearly $100 Billion in US war hardware, which included heavy weapons, munitions, ISR platforms with instruments, and biometric databases of info on US friendly Afghan’s, Chinese, and CIS pax who used Afghanistan as ingress/egress portal.

It will backfire, but now the antonym of Trump policy toward Russia, China, and Iran, is finishing what Clinton started and Obama championed, and has served to help finish this important stage of the Kremlins CIS ascendency onjective over European policy.

No worries though.

If some part of this fails, we can always have our leftist friends network CRISPR another batch of virus, or unleash a new mild virus variant to shut down entire western economies, and beat down, or end our Bill of Rights...

The bad guy is the one rolling his tanks through the other guy’s streets. If Putin had taken the Eastern Provinces who are ethnically Russian and Russian speaking. He may have had a legit argument. The minute he moved on Kyiv and the West, it’s obvious what his intentions were.

they thought it would be quick and dirty

So far it has been.

There is the potential for a protracted insurgency ala Iraq, funded by the West through Poland.
We’ll see.

He says, “Send guns, lawyers and money—don’t call an Uber!”

But who’s helping the invasion here? Or really going to save Taiwan?

FWIW there is some scuttlebutt that he’s actually been a double agent of Russia all along (and this whole thing is theater being played out with to a previously agreed ending).

Of course!…

American politicians RUN at the first whiff of possible trouble..

“Let the little people do the fighting and get killed…”

Across the world, REAL leaders stand up in the face of peril.

We need to rid ourselves of the American ruling class.

He definitely needs to shut up about joining the EU.

Good on him. Ironic that he is doing exactly what Stalin did when Moscow was threatened by Nazi Germany. Staying in capital city.

Pretty deadly theater for him staying there.

Plus if true he’d have to worry Ukranians would deal with him.
