Z was picked, groomed, then he groomed the people on the TV, and was installed as president and you know it.

Tell that to the Soviet Union or the British Empire. Great powers rise and fall primarily for economic reasons.

America’s highest-ranking military official thinks the U.S. has bigger security problems than al-Qaeda, suicide bombers and an increasingly deadly nine-year war.

“Our national debt is our biggest national security threat,” said Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at a “Tribute to the Troops” breakfast sponsored by The Hill on Thursday morning, according to two staffers at the gathering.

Apologies for troubling you sir, very much doubt that FR wants to see these Russia-Ukraine “snuff” photos on the forum, and am certain you would like to have the Timber Rattler negativity and provocative agitator posting stopped.

Timber Rattler: You are disgusting. Who is paying you to stir up Free Republic with this awful messaging and bloody snuff photos. What do you think this place is, 4-chan?

No, I mean you are truly revolting with you daily posts and harassment of longtime members here.

Go away.

Smells like ozone.

One would think McCaul would have a clue, as he’s from Texas. Apparently, he’s clueless.

George Washington was right regarding tangled foreign alliances.

Oh puh-leeze! Stop with the whiny hysterics and crying to admin.

I only post stories and photographs from legitimate, well known news outlets with millions of readers, and not from random pro-Kremlin blogs, "alternative" news sites, and Youtube v-blogs.

The photos are nothing new and have been posted in the public domain and here ever since the war started.

You're just being ridiculous in your demands for an echo chamber.

“If Ukraine falls, Chairman Xi in China’s going to invade Taiwan.

I don't see why Xi would wait for the outcome in Ukraine before invading Taiwan. If anything, I'd think he's more likely to invade Taiwan now while we're tied up in Ukraine.

I agree. The excessive propaganda these people post is annoying enough, but when this guy starts posting gruesome photos like this, they’re going too far.

They don’t know or care who might have been in an actual war zone and have seen things and pictures like this can trigger bad and unnecessary memories. That could even be you, Jim, since you’re a vet.

FR is better than this.

How about all the pictures of American children killed by illegal aliens invited by Puppet Biden? I guess you don’t care when Americans get killed right here at home.

You're demanding an echo chamber.

And the photos I post (worth a thousand words each) are all legitimately sourced and released by national and international news services, and have been posted repeatedly here since the war began. They represent the Ukrainian human cost of Russia's invasion and attacks.

Where have you been?

Both sides people die in a war.
both sides cry at their loss
Does a Russian mother cry less?
They both can cry without our tax dollars.

Uh...from the public domain and international news media, including Wikipedia, the BBC, CNN, AFP, Sky News, the Associated Press, Reuters, UPI, the Wall Street Journal,the New York Times, Forbes, the New York Post, the Washington Post, Stars & Stripes, USNI News, etc., etc...

You should learn how to search news images using Google. It's really quite easy.

And I thought that name calling was against the rules around here? Or so I've been told.

“”Congressional Salary is approx $200K/year “”

Why not just use the real figure?
