DO NOT believe anything from our LYING WORTHLESS government and media.........NOTHING!!!

““There are many Russians here and around the world who support Putin’s actions in Ukraine, including me,” said Gillies-Lekakis, who is part of the Russian community in Australia. “I am outraged by the narrative created by our media that portrays the Ukrainians as the good guys and the Russians as the bad guys.””

These U.S., Canadian and British-based news outlets should not be afraid of prosecution in Russia if they are telling the truth. I had to laugh when CNN said they have stopped sending their broadcasts into Russia. I wish they would do likewise in the USA. What a relief from bald-faced lies that would be !

Arguing that indirect censorship in the US is bad, but direct censorship by the government in Russia is good, is moronic.

So all we have to do is invade someone on our border to get rid of CNN? Choices, choices...Mexico or Canada?

I think we can handle a two front war. If we got ten minutes to spare.

These leftist networks finally got a bite of MARXIST reality despite their years of supporting it. Tough shit. Payback’s a bitch and she has big, sharp teeth!

CNN, NBC, CBS, BBC, CBC, and Bloomberg are the gold standard of fake news.

It should make every conservative happy when CNN is banned anywhere.
