Basically every claim you made is false.

The Ukrainian parliament banned pro-Russian political parties. The US didn't tolerate the German Bund after WWII started, why would the Ukrainians tolerate pro-Russia parties funded by Moscow after an invasion by Russia?

As far as the media goes, even the Chilean Communist swine Lira who cheerleads for Russia was released from detention in Kharkov. Ukraine has a more free media than the US does.

Zelensky was elected long after Maidan. There was no coup as Yanokovych fled the country to his master in Russia when he couldn't get Ukrainian security forces to fire on protesters. The Ukrainian parliament then followed its Constitution and appointed a new President.

The only good thing is that the ever more hysterical lies coming from the pro-Russian side seem to indicate the serious difficulties the Russians are now in.

I do not know the particulars, but IF our country were a sane and honest broker, we would help the people of Ukraine build a Republican form of government....like we used to have.

You do that (A) by providing them moral support, and encouragement. (B) modelling how it is done (C) telling outside influencers HANDS OFF. From Russia, the EU, NATO, George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Bezos, Zuckhead, and the US Congressmen and women. It is WAY past time for the Executive Branch to hold to account those influencing and purchasing policy that benefits themselves. Imprison them, send a message. I am quite sure it is against the law to work against the official (Executive branches) legal policies. If Congress wants to enshrine policy, they can vote on it and see if it passes the Presidents desk.

“Zelensky Suspends Democracy-Goes Full-Blown Nationalist Over Victor Medvechuk”

Well, what is Zelensky to do, since he has declared Medvechuk to be an Enemy of the People?

“Zelensky was mandated to do by 70%+ of Ukrainian voters when he was elected.”

Ah the old bait and switch, I guess Zelensky just couldn’t resist the untold millions funneled to him from Ukrainian Oligarch Kolomoisky and other assorted globalists like Soros.

He consigned the Ukrainian people to be cannon fodder for them leaving their country in shambles. And if anyone objected to this treachery, well the Azov battalion would shoot them in the back for being ‘deserters’. Azov too received their 30 pieces of silver from the same people.

Another Putin’s propaganda post.
Somehow outdated.
Medvedchuk is the leader of the pro-Putin party in Ukraine.
If Medvedchuk were so popular, Russians would be welcomed to Ukraine with flowers.
I guess, that’s what Russians believed.

Zelensky has banned all opposition parties.

Zelensky has arrested opposition parry leaders.

Zelensky has seized all media.

Abraham Lincoln did the same things during our War of Northern Aggression.

Good one KGB.

Zelenskyy banned parties directly collaborating with the Kremlin. After Russia invaded Ukraine.

Zelenskyy has arrested Kremlin collaborators. After Russia invaded Ukraine.

Viktor Yanukovych was elected. Then he reversed course of joining Europe and started kowtowing to Moscow. And fled to Russia after the Maiden protest.

Then Petro Poroshenko was elected in 2014 and served til 2019 when Zelenskyy was elected.

Opposition leaders and parties have more freedom in invaded Ukraine than they do in Russia. There is greater freedom of the press in invaded Ukraine than in Russia.

Zelenskyy would win an election today with over 70%. There are no real elections in Russia. Putin has been the Russian dictator for 22 years. The KGB/FSB and CIA predicted the democratically elected Ukraine government would fall in 3-7 days after invasion. We are past day 80. And Ukraine is on offense.

If I had to guess : America runs Ukraine

Ever since Ukraine gained it's independence in 1990, a short time ago, it's been the playground & slush fund for US pols and also a practice ground for color revolutions, like the one we're going through now.

So we can expect another flood of Pro-Ukrainian Posts on FB? We have been averaging about 12 a day.

Woodrow Wilson had government thugs beating up newspaper editors. Lincoln arrested and deported his opponent. War lets politicians do things they can’t do during peace. Churchill told the former king if he so much as opened his Nazi loving mouth he’d have him assassinated. Sent him off to an island in the Caribbean.

“Lincoln arrested and deported his opponent.”

Stephen Douglas died of natural causes in 1861 and his personal relationship with Lincoln was warm and cordial to the very end. Douglas may have been a Democrat but he was also an ardent supporter of the Union, he opposed secession, and would have never been arrested for sedition let alone deported to the CSA.

“Woodrow Wilson had government thugs beating up newspaper editors.”

Okay, so Woodrow Wilson had some redeeming points despite being a Democrat, I guess I’ll have to concede liking the man just a little bit more now. Thank you for the information!

You’re getting your facts confused. Zelenskyy won an election against Poroshenko. In 2019. No coup.

Poroshenko won an election after a period with an interim government.

The interim was needed after the Prime Minister resigned and after Yanukovych was legitimately sacked as President.

Yanokovych was sacked after committing high treason on 17th December 2013.

His act of high treason triggered Euromaidan and set off a civil war. Not content with that, he greenlit Russian annexation of Crimea and ordered his own troops not to interfere. Even though he knew the Russian takeover violated the Budapest Memorandum of 1993, and knew the Memorandum was the strongest guarantee of Ukraine’s independence from Moscow.

So, also not a coup.

I am just guessing here, but supporting anyone but the Zelensky side would most assuredly get you shot in the back. Look how many Pro Trump Americans are protesting in front of Congress now that they found out they will be throwin in the Gulag.
