The United States has supplied more than $27 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since Russia invaded the country on Feb. 24, including over 1,600 Stinger anti-aircraft rocket systems, 8,500 Javelin anti-tank missile systems and over 1 million 155mm artillery rounds.

The deep state hates Christian Russia almost as much as it hates U.S. citizens.

Luckily our Federal government has our southern border completely under control…
And, our military is exceeding all of their recruiting targets…

Interesting numbers. One million 155mm artillery rounds?

That is about 3500 a day of combat, roughly on average, likely increasing with time.

Makes you wonder how many 155mm (NATO standard) artillery pieces Ukraine has.

THEY want their global war so badly. They will get it too. Trump has been removed.

IF the media blurting on about Ukraine winning was accurate then why do they keep begging for tanks and more and more military hardware? Why don’t they BUY that hardware with the billions we’ve sent to them?

The deep state hates Christian Russia

Or more truthfully Russia violates agreements with the US like the INF Treaty.

The US just withdrew from an important nuclear arms treaty with Russia. Don’t panic — yet. Aug 2, 2019

The US has officially withdrawn from a Cold War-era missile treaty with Russia that could kick-start an arms race between the world’s top two nuclear powers.

So last October, President Donald Trump proclaimed the United States would withdraw from the treaty, adding that he would give Russia 60 days — until February 2 — to come back into compliance.

But the Kremlin didn’t budge, leading Trump to put one of the last nails in the INF Treaty’s coffin during his February State of the Union address.

“Decades ago, the United States entered into a treaty with Russia in which we agreed to limit and reduce our missile capabilities,” he said. “While we followed the agreement to the letter, Russia repeatedly violated its terms. That is why I announced that the United States is officially withdrawing from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, or INF Treaty.

Closer to 50 billion, but what difference does that make?

Ending the START treaty is probably no big deal.

Abrogating the Non-Proliferation Treaty would be. Russia could start providing missiles and warheads to other nations on a cash and carry basis.

“The deep state hates Christian Russia”

You may be surprised to learn that Putin spent most of his career in the KGB. Russia is the most Deep State controlled nation in the world.

The Ukrainians are so desperate for soldiers that they are conscripting men that are 50 and older.

Compared to the US and Europe, yes, he’s much more rational and patient.

“The deep state hates Christian Russia almost as much as it hates U.S. citizens.”

Which is why this little conflict will blow up into a nuclear WW3. I’m sure the FReepers here who bloodthirsty for Russian deaths will be throw big parties when that happens.

When the nukes start flying our way we’ll stop thinking like that.

Canada is much closer and Marxist.

Good practice target to see if your theory works.

…….

[As a side note, we need to build a great mountain range across our northern border to prevent Canada’s arctic air mass from coming south.

The cost to our country is +1 trillion a year to clear roads, property damage, heating….]
