Investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald said the same people who pushed the U.S. into war with Iraq and Afghanistan for Republicans are now back to do the same for the Democrats with a war against Russia. Greenwald told FOX News' Laura Ingraham on Thursday that people should be cautious when the two parties are in lockstep when it comes to war because that means there was very little debate and people were coerced. Greenwald also said Russiagate and the hatred and distrust for Russia that was created is one of the reasons why the Russia-Ukraine conflict could not be solved diplomatically. "This is journalism in 2022," Greenwald said. "There are no standards, there are no ethics. A lot of their readers who they write for want them to lie to them or about their enemies as long as it advances the cause." "I think the more interesting question is the fact that you pointed out to, there is very little debate over something this cataclysmic potentially in the U.S. Congress," he said. "I haven't seen the two parties united in lockstep to this extent since the days after 9/11. I think that lockstep unity produced a lot of bad outcomes. It's generally a bad thing."

“... all of the same Putin apologists told us he was only conducting military training exercises.”
Putin is a paranoid, stone-cold butcher.
And even tho the U.S. and other NATO members understood that, they continued to push Putin’s buttons by shouting that Ukraine MUST be admitted to NATO.
And when that action generated a real, bloody, butcher war, 100% of the people calling for NATO membership for Ukraine have shown what mindless trolls and cowards they are.
The U.S. and NATO played Zelenskyy against Putin, and are now all booey-hooey over the war the trolls caused.
Murderously disgraceful on the part of ALL who took part in the goading of Putin, and who simultaneously cut Zelenskyy loose when he called for those cowards to live up to their promises.
Stand down and secure our own southern border - FIRST!
Eyepatch McCain, aka Dan Crenshaw.
This is all designed to distract from the invasion of the USA.
The same people who have been keeping the border open are the ones pushing the war.
Our border is not related to Ukraine in any sense. Further, our border will be wide open whenever a Dem is President. That is our reality.
Putin invaded Russia. He is at fault. Period. Ukraine is a sovereign nation and gets to decide their own fate.
“Russia is not communist”.
Sorry.
Russia’s leader is KGB, which must have thrown me off.
Russia is Authoritarian.
Dan Crenshaw, GOPe RINO of Texas.
I was reminded this morning:

(Canada site says “Ronnie Reagan would find a way”).
Yeah, I’d say Russia more closely resembles a monarchy at this point (putin) with traditional nobility (oligarchs). That said, the US has large streaks of authoritarian in our government today as well and heading their direction.
