Good point.
Where are the pubbies?
Shutting up about Brandon’s outrages in the hope we vote for them because they aren’t rats.
Count me out.
This guy is WAY off.
Ukraine had a moderate/wishy washy President who flirted with both Putin and the west.
In 2013 he took a turn toward Putin and stopped negotiating with the west.
In early 2014, our deepstate including Obama,Biden,Kerry and McCain fomented a coup to oust the pro-Russian president. Hundreds of people died and over a thousand were injured.
Obama’s assistant Secretary of State hand picked the next President as is proved by a leaked phone call.
Immediately after the coup, Putin took the Crimea.
A mini civil war broke out in the majority Russian speaking eastern provinces who did not want to be led by a globalist government. 13,000 died.
Over the next 3 years, Biden and Kerry put their sons on the Board of Burisma. Other deepstaters also leveraged their new found connections to rape and plunder the people of Ukraine.
The US govt gave them $3 billion in loan guarantees (as famously alluded to when Biden used $1b as a bride to prevent his son from being investigated)
How much of that $3b ended up going back to the Clinton Foundation? How much ended up going to “the big guy” or other deepstate globalist war mongers?
Trump made it clear he was not going to pursue NATO expansion. He even hinted at disbanding it. That is why Putin stayed relatively quiet from 2017 to 2020.
We just gave Ukraine another $1b loan guarantee and we are restarting the talks of bringing them into NATO.
That is why Putin is doing what he is doing.
Bad juju all around.
START I was signed July 31, 1991, Start II was signed January 3, 1993. In between the USSR formally dissolved on December 26, 1991. At the Russia had so many nuclear weapons so questionably maintained they had to get rid of them. The START treaties allowed both the U.S. and Russia to reduce nuclear arsenals that were excessive and no longer needed.
