I will concede that there is more to this story than Tucker presented.

However, there is a troubling pattern emerging in the Ukraine with media and other entities that question Zelensky.

It’s not all “Russian” propaganda and the regime there has used a fair amount of “emergency actions” to consolidate power in a very undemocratic manner.

Then again, our government behaved in the same manner during Covid.

Tucker was also one of the few to point that out so kudos to him for being skeptical of the overwhelming media narratives.

It is always amusing to read the reactions from the Zelinsky regime worshippers here... when confronted with realities of its corruption and evil doings. Joe Biden would be proud of the level of support for another of his foreign policy disasters.

None of their actions have been much different than actions every country (including the U.S.) have taken for internal security during wartime.

Well, you know, the country is at war against an invader determined to annex it and snuff out its entire existence and history, so peacetime niceties tend to fly out the window.

Case in point: Roosevelt and Churchill's actions during World War II. Heck, FDR broke up strikes and had heads of corporations arrested for opposing him and his war administration and policies. Truman did the same.
