Not happy with our government which seems to be more interested in protecting Ukraine instead of the USA.

Enemies of humanity wanting to profit from an orgy of mass murder.

We need war crimes trials for these men.

Here we have Timber Rattler, a NeverTrump, cheering on Lindsey Graham and perpetual war.

Is there anything else you need to know about this guy?

Ukraine ping

The issue isn’t even money. The way Biden is supplying Ukraine with weapons, if he could get away with it, he’d try to pull the same trick Truman did in starving the Nationalist government while pretending he was doing his best, by putting an absurd value on the equipment sent. Imagine the guy sending one M-16 rifle and assigning to it a value of $100b. That’s the kind of sleazy stunt he would pull if anyone weren’t looking. General Wedemeyer had Truman’s number, but being a soldier instead of chief executive, could do nothing about Truman’s policies:


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Coady_Wedemeyer#Postwar
[These had been promised by Lend-Lease, but not delivered and still charged to Chaing’s account. Thus, while the Nationalists had over 16,000 trucks virtually all of them were rendered inoperable, forcing his troops to march on foot. Ammunition shortages were also causing Nationalist divisions to lose battles, and Chaing’s troops were forced to scavenge abandoned American dumps because no deliveries had been made. Even worse, much surplus weaponry and ammunition in the Pacific was being destroyed rather than utilized, and Chiang’s government was charged exorbitant prices for what remained. For example, bazookas were sold to Greece at $3.65 apiece, while Chiang’s government had to pay $162. For rifles, the price difference was $5.10 and $51, respectively. Ammunition cost differences were similar, China being charged $85 for 1000 rifle rounds and $95 for 1000 machine gun rounds, compared to $4.55 and $4.58 elsewhere. Wedemeyer recommended an immediate correction of these deficiencies and sending leftover equipment to China rather than blowing it up.

Lacking confidence in the Nationalist government caused by Joseph Stilwell and George Marshall’s meddling, President Harry S. Truman not only rejected the recommendations in the report but also imposed an arms embargo against the Nationalist government]


So what Biden is doing is sending Ukraine equipment near their scrap dates as slowly as he can, instead of war-winning gear that will inflict on Putin a quick defeat so the war can end, much as Trump’s destruction of hundreds of Russian mercenaries ended Russian intrusions upon the US-supported Kurdish sector in Syria. Thereafter, US-Russian relations improved, as Putin understood that the US with Trump as president was not a power to be trifled with.

Many of the congressional pinheads (and senate pinheads) were against spending money to stop the USSR. They cringed when Reagan called them the evil empire. They wanted to ‘co-exist’ with a state that had made it clear it wanted world dominion.

Now that the USSR has been defeated, and a very weak Russia is what remains, they want to spend enormous amounts of money to ‘defeat’ Russia. Had the ignoramus who currently produces CO2 in the White House been any kind of real pro-American leader he would have prevented this war in the first place. Instead, his weakness and perhaps his self-interest in preventing his and his son's corrupt dealings with Ukraine guaranteed that Russia invaded.

Already Republicans oppose 2-1.

The House will reflect that.

The Asian part of Russia is what we need to be focused on.
Europe should be well equipped to handle the western part, US has been subsidizing their socialistic worthless ingrates for decades on end. BTW, f* the queer Zelenskyy (His beard as well) and his crony globalist overlords which many reside in the United States. Would support Ukranians more if they hanged Zelenskyy from a lamppost/highest tree along with his handlers. F* Russia by default, they are erecting an offensive force in the Baltic/Eastern region we need to counter. Again, Europe should be able to defend their side after decades of US aide, right Zelenskyy groupies?

The Eastern buildup is more concerning (Guess who else is in that region).

I think you actually solidify opposition to these things, and increase the ardor of the other side with these posts. Especially when you cheer about it as if it is something wonderful.

Few real people here who are not in the domestic intelligence-surveillance/political-establishment/conspiracy-screwing-the-nation care about Ukraine. Fewer still like Zelensky-Soros-Biden-Graham, support war killing young heroes and waged by cowardly politicians from safety, or support all these political hacks taking our money which they are surely getting something for. Especially funneling money over there as America burns.

They would oppose this for any of those reasons individually, but every time they see these posts, it kind of highlights all of those reasons are linked, and it only increases opposition.

There are probably a few Ukrainians who support this for nationalistic reasons, but I am sure these posts change nothing with them.

It is funny, but the people cheering this, for whatever reasons they do, are so tone-deaf it is wild.
