95% of the attendees at the Turning Point ACTION conference believe the US should not be involved in the Ukraine war effort

95%

Why do 99% of elected Republicans support the war?

Trump is right on the need of a fast, peaceful end to the war.

And war Republicans and Democrats are wrong not to aim for peace.

armistice - to stop the killing

plebiscites - to put democracy to work

“We must ask those who represent us at the federal, state, and local levels: Will you deny the will of the people?”

“And guaranteeing the right to vote, ensuring every vote is counted has always been the most patriotic thing we can do.”

Because they’re not part of us. The government has been hijacked by Marxist, controlling psychopaths, war peddlers, and assorted America haters. Their trade and foreign policies are de facto sabotage. They hate freedom and everything about America. Wide open borders and God knows who is entering, but they want you scanned, sniffed, registered, surveilled, licensed, fingerprinted, videoed, photographed and documented.

It seems like it is time for the US to stop sending weapons.

The one thing our military is expert on is to train and arm armies, encourage them to fight, and then abandon them so they are quickly overrun.

It seems like it’s about that time.

Then we can fight these same guys we armed with our own equipment when they are drafted into the Russian Army for the invasion of the Baltic Countries.

At first I didn’t care because they are both former Soviet States and both founding members of the USSR. But then the MSM and woke Hollywood and Joe Biden all flew Uke flags and told me I had to pray for Ukraine and hate on Russia because… why? Because DJT first impeachment was about corruption in Ukraine? Because Hunter was grifting off Burisma using his dad name? Because Russia is the “invader” but the when USA “invades” it’s ok because we are the good guys?

So eff them all…, I’m rooting for Russia. Give me a reason not to.

I’m not surprised by the plans to increase NATO military strength in the Baltics clearly expecting Russia to do something there.

What kind of US-NATO-Ukrainian provocations are planned to get the Russians to attack the Baltics?

From 1928:

“There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

There are no good guys in the war. The Russians are insecure and the Ukrainians are corrupt.

“Further, I’m starting to believe that there are unelected people who REALLY run the country. Faceless, unnamed, unelected and unseen....and they have the ultimate control over these things.”

You are one of the few that “get it”
everybody else in the USA doesn’t.

Some here think voting for a Democrat or a Republican means something and at some level it does, but in reality Democrats and most Republican voters are stupid and don’t have a clue how the Federal government really works.
We ceased to be a Republic in 1913 with the passage of the 16th and 17th amendments.

The only good thing to come out of this proxy war is Russia is not going to be able to hold it’s own territory much less attack anybody else in the near future.
Chechnya, Georgia, et al will be able to tell them to “Blow off” I would if I were them.
Perhaps China will take back the resource and water rich lands they ceded to Russia so many years ago.
Payback is a Bit*h.

95% Republicans do support this though. What is wrong with this picture?

Because Russia invaded a sovereign nation. Some Russian politicians have called for invading Finland. Would you be okay with that? If not, give me a reason why not.

Headline could be “Attendees Undecided on Ukraine Matter.”

95% isn’t 100%.

[You are one of the few that “gets it”

Thank you. This was ever-so-clear when President Trump was campaigning. That Hillary was backed, knowing her lies, was a watershed moment. Yet the overwhelming majority of the population remains clueless. Worried about UFO's, cheering for gay pride parades, still watching Disney shows. I do not foresee this turning around; ever. Not in the present world.

The illusion of choice was always just that.... an illusion

[From 1928:]

Wow, 1928.

30-40 years ago, I probably might have blown that off as tinfoil.

After the last 15 years..........it sure seems to be reality.

That didn’t just happen out of the blue, now did it?
No it didn’t. Turns out there’s been a civil war there going on since before 2014, so let’s not pretend Ukraine was all rainbows and unicorns before Feb ‘22.

Since when do Americans get to be all virtuous about “invading a sovereign nation” after Vietnam, or Syria, or Lybia, or Afghanistan, or Iraq, or half a dozen South American countries?

Sorry, try again
