House Republican Victoria Spartz (Indiana CD-05) is originally from Nosivka in eastern Ukraine. Mrs. Spartz emigrated to the United States in 2000 after meeting her husband who is from Indiana.
During the Republican House press conference today, Representative Spartz delivered passionate remarks about her homeland and the regional war between Russia and Ukraine that is impacting her distant family.
The region in Ukraine outlined by Representative Spartz, is the eastern Ukraine region that has been in a state of constant conflict over the past eight years. The Russian aligned separatists in eastern Ukraine have been fighting the western Ukraine military. The Russian military forces are now supporting the separatists and tilting the outcome of the fight.
WASHINGTON DC – […] “This is not a war, this is a genocide of the Ukrainian people by a crazy man who cannot get over the Ukrainian people do not want socialism, Soviet Union, communism,” Spartz, who represents Indiana, told reporters during a GOP news conference about President Biden’s State of the Union address. “They want to be with the United States of America. They want to be free people. They want to be with the West.” (read more)
Mrs. Spartz also answered questions from media attendees (video below).
.
There is a lot of complexity within the struggle inside Ukraine. There are layers of additional motives by outside elements, including the United States government and NATO, that makes that internal complexity exponential.
The conflict as presented by the corporate media boils this complex issue down to a Russia (Putin) -vs- Ukraine (Zelenskyy) issue, and that framework is done purposefully. However, inside Ukraine there are ideological factions just like there are in other nations. The influence by the U.S. and the influence by Russia has been an ongoing back-and-forth for well over a decade.
Similar to how the issues within Syria were never as simple as the media portrayed with the ever-horrible Bashir Assad, the issues in Ukraine are more complex than just horrible Vladimir Putin. When only one side of any complex issue is supported by western corporate media, the truth gets lost, because the truth is different depending on which internal faction you are talking to.
There are many Russians inside Russia who are aligned ideologically with the outlook of New York and California Democrats. There are many Ukrainians inside Ukraine who are aligned with the outlook of DC Republicans. The opposite of both is also true.
Overlay the financial motives of the World Economic Forum crowd atop the ideological motives of the Davos globalist crowd, and you realize just how convoluted these geopolitical battles can become.
Because of the influential position of the U.S. on a global scale, the outlook of Americans is valuable for each party. Therefore, there is a real battle for our mind.
Is Putin all good, no. Is Putin all bad, no. The same applies for just about every leader.
In the U.S. we are currently split about 50/50 on many issues, including -as we have seen- the issues surrounding COVID, masks, vaccinations, mandates, etc. In the battlespace of internet, we can see these differences become more visible.
Historically, our reference points were neighborhood and community based; there was less conflict visible to us, because generally on a local level there’s more unity. However, now with technology we see a much bigger picture of opinion, and with that scale of visibility we see much more conflicting opinion.
In your local tribe, there’s likely nowhere near as much friction as you witness in the social strata of the internet. That reality is why CTH continues to reemphasize the value of fellowship and local contact.
Keep this in mind as you absorb information from all sources, as you are always witnessing more conflict on-line than exists in local reality. That is the nature of this massive interconnected system that has been created by big tech.
In eastern Ukraine there are just as many people who would dispute how Representative Spartz would frame the issues, if not more. That’s not to say her outline of the situation is wrong, it just comes from a different point of reference.
In the larger dynamic, the problem that always existed with “globalism”, and the multicultural utopia they have hoped to achieve, is that in the largest of assemblies there is always more friction. The “new world order” is conflict against freedom. (Think of this as a big picture Western Ukraine outlook)
The smart nationalists have noticed this conflict; they have discussed and studied it and eventually chosen a different direction. Eventually the desire for peace, to be left alone, becomes the fulcrum of why the independent nation state is the best form of government. (Think of this as a big picture Eastern Ukraine outlook)
We in the USA are fortunate because we still have, albeit in a weakened status, a genuine constitutional republic. Meaning, each state can modify lifestyle according to the desires and choices of the people within it. If more nations took that approach, perhaps there would be less civil conflict.
Ultimately, if the United States ever fully dissolves the distinction of states, we will see greater conflict.
Genocide is the deliberate murder of a whole community or race.
Collins Reverso Dictionary.
Until we have enough information this is unfounded and unhelpful using hyperbolic language.
I agree: “Slaughter” or “mass murder” would undoubtedly be better terms to employ.
At this point, yes.
Define “mass murder”. Is it 10, 100, 1000? If so United States stands accused of that very think you accuse modern Russia of.
Yeah, right. Murder means it is not during a justified military action. No matter how much Russia wants to justify this invasion, it’s not justified.
Kindly explain that while I put bio labs and NATO weapons in your face!
Biden wanted this, and he got it. Your questions should be, why did Biden put US Nato bases facing Russia?
Have you stocked up on food yet and started saving $100,000 for your YOU WILL DRIVE AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE yet? Have you taken some money out of the bank before the markets tank, people lose businesses, homes, and virtually everything? All planned. Now hold your hand out to the government and beg them for help. It will all be yours. Digital currency, digital ID, 3D printed food, and a big fat pseudo COMMUNIST/Fascist boot on your face FOREVER!
Yes, how many did they kill in the last two years alone with arm drugs, CCP/Faux-Xi Virus, neglect and medical, physical and mental abuse? How many are they trying to kill in the D.C. Gulags as we speak?
How many of his own people has Zelensky killed in the last 8 years?
What, at this point, does it matter?
/S
Why do I get the impression many here are Putin apologists?
not apologists.
just trying to objectively consider what we know
Since you asked, this is what we know. Putin has multiple times said the breakup of the Soviet Union was the greatest geopolitical tragedy of the 20th century. He’s been pining for Ukraine for decades and would like to put the old Soviet Union back together. Russia is a poor country of 144 million. It’s GDP is less than Canada’s, a country of 38 million. Ukraine is the world’s fourth largest producer of wheat and has many natural resources. Taking over Ukraine is a huge plus for Russia for obvious reasons and he struck when he saw how weak the resolve of the West is, particularly the US.
Perhaps things are more obvious than some want to believe. Some feel a need to conjure up numerous conspiracy theories and behind the scenes drama. Perhaps it is as simple as Putin really is evil and this is his best play to make Russia better compete economically and a stronger country on the international stage. Forty percent of its income is from oil and gas. I’m sure he would like to diversify a bit.
You might be listening to too many Russiam bots.
No, just objective facts as opposed to conjecture.
You called Putin evil and then say you’re listing objective facts?
Yes, those are facts and then you can conclude. It’s a fact that Putin, for many years, lamented the breakup of the Soviet Union and never hid his desire for Ukraine. Russia is poor and Ukraine would be an economic shot in the arm. Some people here are mesmerized that Putin has correctly pointed out some of the West’s issues, such as gender confusion and the like. To point something out like that does not make him particularly brilliant or make him any less evil. Like I stated earlier, there are many here who try to play Putin as the good guy here and are his apologists. Sometimes, things are as they seem to be.
You can be correct on a few issues and still be evil. Putin isn’t what I would call to be a freedom loving individual. He has had many peaceful protesters arrested in the last week, something we freely condemned Trudeau, but seem to give Putin a pass on.
Putin is evil.
No, not an apologist, an anti-warmongering, freedom stealing Bidenist, is what I am!
It is a lot to digest that Putin is intentionally killing the Russian citizens of eastern Ukraine. This sounds more like hysteria.
You’re right. Nothing is happening. All those people you see scurrying about is performance art. They are so good! Oscars for all!!
It’s very anti-Semitic. Genocide was employed by Nazis against the Jews in the Holocaust War. Sure, many Jews are agitating for war against Russia today and many Jews are involved in the various human trafficking/money laundering crimes that have centered around Ukraine, but let’s not lose focus of the fact that 6,000,000 Jews died. THAT was a genocide. To call anything else a genocide, even the Holodomor, would be disrespectful and wrong.
The Holodomor was genocide. So were the killings in Rwanda.
The Holocaust is the most horrific example of genocide, because of its scale and industrialized methods. That does not mean that other examples of genocide don’t exist.
Double-speak much?
Just V.
You are ignorant and an idiot
The word Genocide was coined by Raphael Lemkin due to the Turks committing mass murder against the Armenians in the early 20th century.
The Jews have a word for what Hitler did: Shoah.
The Jews are not the only people to have faced extermination. Not even close.
So stop the phony antisemitism crap.
Jews are the only ethnicity who use their victimhood as a shield against any and all criticism.
As their democide passes from lived memory to history, they are finding out how little people with no personal connection to that event care about it. Furthermore, the constant need of Jews to bash people over the head about it is making the bashee start to look into past history of such things, and oh hey, look at that, Jews are just one of many different people who were on the receiving end of mass extermination, and oh hey, would you look at that, almost as many other people were killed in Nazi camps as Jews were.
It’s enough to make people start to wonder, Why is their democide so special, again, when Communist exterminations before and later on eclipse what happened to them in both numbers and brutality?
Deliberate starving of a people is genocide; there were families who traded dead children with neighbors so they didn’t have to cannibalize their own for survival. Others who lived in the forest for their own safety for years.
Then there is the term democide: https://wikidiff.com/genocide/democide
The left likes to seize on words with emotional impact, overuse them, misuse them, and eventually render them meaningless to a large percentage of people. Racist springs to mind.
Correct. Too many stupid people throw this term around without having the slightest clue about its meaning.
There was no deal between Putin and Zelenskyy to come to terms on a cease fire.
Col. MacGregor told everyone the other day that Putin was going easy to avoid destroying the country, but if no deal was made Putin would come down hard in the east.That is now happening.
I don’t know the history of this territory. If it was originally Ukraine and Russians immigrated to the area or if it was Russian and Ukraine expanded after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
But, to save the sovereign nation of Ukraine, Zelenskyy is going to have to make a deal with Russia. Zelenskyy keeps the west and
Putin “recognizes” the independent eastern provinces as he said when this all started. It is not fair or right but the people are the ones who suffer in war, and Ukraine cannot win, imo. NATO cannot get involved.
It would be helpful if this Congesswoman could explain the history of this area and what is at stake.Her family is certainly in danger.
Now is the time to help people understand why this is happening.
Oh we did some dirt deeds over there and they weren’t dirt cheap.
Also funny, Neo Libs & Neo Cons not even pretending to hate each other anymore. They have both decided to fight for Ukraine…. We should not be egging them (Ukies) on. We are going to get so many of them killed. But our leadership is pure evil. They know and care as much as they did for all the people they sentenced to death with Fauci’s hospital protocols. They are trying to make Vlad look bad. They may succeed if he has to kill so many. This is about the globalists trying to take out one of the last stumbling blocks in their way; Russia and even possibly China. I doubt they are even worried about the US anymore. That could be a mistake that will bite them in the ass in the future. I think they are doing this to get rid of the strong man Putin by tarnishing his image. Even though he’s authoritarian he still needs popular support. Hey at least you know what you are getting with Vlad. Here you have the illusion of a 2 party system playing Kabuki theater with every issue……except this one!!
I just heard Sean Hannity say that Putin needs to be “taken out by any means necessary and you know what I mean.”
Good God, these meddling dolts are going to get a lot of people killed, possibly involve us in another war. Shameful!
I have to tell you I don’t see a long term war happening; not with nukes. It becomes a game on who can launch first and intercept the adversary. I don’t see a conventional war with Russia happening. I could be dead wrong tho but doesn’t make sense to me given what we know. If it turns nuclear there will certainly be no chance it stays in Europe & Asia. It’s coming here as well.
Nothing good comes of this. There are no good players. Not Putin, not Zelensky, not the war-mongering American politicians, and not Sean Hannity and his big stupid mouth.
We’re all just pawns to them in their quest for a global reset.
Hear, hear!
Very true! Elon Musk was only speaking up for Ukraine because he too is eyeing up the lithium mines!
“It becomes a game on who can launch first and intercept the adversary. ”
Even allowing oneself to think this was is scary. No, it simple becomes a game of devastation and 50% plus of the people being annihilated. Each country has thousands of them. Intercepting them is impossible
I guess my definition of intercept was prevent the launch. I agree once in the air there’s little hope to bring them down; especially the hypersonic variety.
It’s funny Hannitys producer says the same thing about Hannity.
The moron needs to keep his mouth shut.
Hannity is one of those people who got lucky, he’s dumb, but he got lucky.
i now have people telling me the 2014 coup was simply a revolution to oust a corrupt govt. Even though was have Nuland on tape ramrodding who the US is going to say should be president of Ukraine
Yes, this kind of talk if insane.
Indeed. She was bragging about it….
FWIW, these idiots are going to have all of us huddling in the dark wondering if this is our last day on earth.
Probably within the next six months, if not much, much sooner.
Stock up. Get some cash out of the bank.
Get out of cities.
Elites just aren’t happy unless they are being entertained and enriched by common people killing eachother off.
Squid game. On a worldwide scale.
All you need to do to figure out who to support is who the Globalist vilify and who they support. EVERYTHING in MSM is pure propaganda. The battle is for your mind. Then they will slaughter you and your children for your stupidity in trusting them or defying them.
1,000,000,000 up votes!

Satans spawn.
History doesn’t repeat itself but it does rhyme.
Hitler invaded the Sudetenland for the same reasons that Russia invades Ukraine and that seems to have no problem getting traction here.
If you approve one invasion of a neighbour on “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” principle to expose Biden you have no standing to reverse your tacit approval when Putin does the Baltic States.
Talk to Biden, he did not seek my approval before he pushed this to the limits.
No one has asked for my approval on any of it.
Your concern is noted
🙂
Govt doesn’t operate on asking your approval. You just get to do that every 4 years.
When an election is stolen, no approval needed.
Correct. But that has nothing to do with the meme that “we” must ignore/apologise for the Russian invasion because Biden’s handlers are using it as cover.
No actually you don’t here in America but that’s for another thread
St least they let you think you do every 4 years
And Putin will have no standing when China annexes Vladivostok in the Far East.
Please….China just became Russia’s biggest energy customer.
There is no Chinese ethnic majority in Vlad.
Try and keep up.
It’d be nice if the same concern regarding Ukraine 🇺🇦 borders could be shown concerning the open invasion of our Southern Borders 🤔
Or all the people rotting in the D.C. Gulags for well over a year now. Where is the passion and fight for them?
How about all the stolen elections? No passion for them either.
The graft just continues on and on as if there is no tomorrow.
Talk to the hand.
He would settle for a neutral Ukraine no in NATO. That is all they’ve asked
She is pure evil leftist cabal. They are now firing and cancelling people all over the world that support Putin. What does that tell you? They want to bring Putin down like they tried with Trump. Wake up. Putin blocked Soros and all his banks from Russia years ago. Putin does not want the depravity of the west and Ukraine spreading into Ukraine. Just ask the gay soldiers in Ukraine fighting Putin. He asked them to surrender, they did not.
Putin is not a good person just because once in a while his self interest means he takes on some of our mutual enemies.
Deb. If the US intervenes and Russia starts a nuclear war that kills many in the US, will you be happy?
I don’t know the answer to this situation but the last thing I want to see is my children dying for the Ukraine.
Show me one current world leader who is good?
I do not apologize for pointing out that speeches like this, while she is entitled to her opinion, are just more of the same emotional blackmail we have been suffering under for several years now.
This is not Stalin or Hitler. There are no gas chambers. There are not 70,000 soldiers dying in a single battle. The entire fate of Europe does not hang in the balance.
I hope her family stays safe, and I pray for the end of hostilities. But in no way am I giving over my life, or the lives of my children who will be called upon to fight this war the Official Government Party wants, because somebody goes on TV and cries about her grandmother and uses transparently manipulative emotional blackmail.
To be fair, she asked for arms, not soldiers.
I think we should cut this woman some slack.
We should buy her a ticket to Ukraine.
…and give her a featureless AR-15 with only a 10 round magazine.
I got 5 on it!
Please – slack for the NWO hack. They always self identify dont they.
Ukraine is a fake country, split out of Russia by the communists.
Only a small part of modern Ukraine is Ukrainian, mostly its ethnic Russian.
The fact that Soros and Biden and even Western corrupt elite has business there makes me on principle, completely opposed to WW3 over Hunter Biden’s gas stock.
Bidan created this fiasco. Its all him. let him send Hunter
She called it genocide. She knows what that term means. She’s a moron and should shut her mouth.
Right there with you on that.
Heart string tugging going to the limits
This communist bunch would to draft all fighting men in this country and send to be slaughtered.
Just so they can push this new world order.
Can always count on you to cut to the chase. Couldn’t agree more.
Bullshit. Stop using the word genocide for everything.
Correct.
Anyone who devalues and twists and obfuscates language like that is not to be trusted.
The are short circuiting trying to figure out how to apply racism to the story but end up setting with genocide
Considering Ukrainian President Zelensky’s offer to provide weapons for all who want to fight for Ukraine, these people sound stupid running around flapping their gums instead of hopping on a flight and picking up their arms. All these talkers are proving is they want someone else to take the risks to life and limb while they grab a mic and spotlight every chance they get. Why does anyone pay attention to this nonsense?
Excellent point. They are all hat and no cattle.
Exactly. What kind of person wants anyone other than themselves to sacrifice life and limb for what they themselves are bellowing about? They’re sick people and President Zelinsky’s offer has them showcasing their own twisted minds.
I swear one of the talking heads had someone on tonight whose name was wh0re to talk about the “carnage”.
Not surprising. It’s beyond me how anyone is falling for the hoopla. Seems to me it would be simple to point out Zelensky’s offer and tell the barking heads to grab a flight, take the offered weapons and start fighting. They can share their war stories upon their return.
That PR worked. Still watching Brit mysteries and such where the bad guy is always some Serbian dude with a hidden dark past, having single-handedly raped/tortured/starved/murdered thousands of Muslims. Predictable and tiresome.
Much like the crusades, there’s never any information about what the Muslims did to generate that response.
Just the Dark Ages that none dare attribute to their true authors.
When are O’thugo and Crooked going to be arrested for the chaos between Western/Eastern Ukraine for the past eight years? And when does Crooked get arrested for selling Putin our uranium?
What to me is most telling about the current situation in Ukraine is the inability of Fox to seperate themselves from the drive by media. The mask is off, Fox, with few exceptions you are one of them. Uniparty SOBs one and all.
“Is Putin all good, no. Is Putin all bad, no. The same applies for just about every leader.”
Moral relativism is not a virtue.
How many of these other leaders invaded a neighboring country and commenced to slaughter the civilian population?
Well the Bushes invaded countries, but they weren’t even neighboring.
Obama took out other country’s governments many times and they weren’t neighboring either. In fact he did that in 2014 to Ukraine.
I recall one President who didn’t invade any country, or drone civilians! Killed a few famous terrorists, though.
Our American southern Borders are in open invasion encouraged by our own Federal Government and illegals resettled at taxpayer’s expense.
I guess our Boder is of no concern 😳🌎✅️
All true, plus WJC bomber Belgrade. U.N. Security Council for those acts of war? Nowhere. But when NATO needs a PR whitewash, by golly, we have U.N. Security Council sanctimony over Ukraine.
George W Bush. Cheney. Bill Clinton. Madeleine Albright. Not neighboring counties but certainly willing to start wars.
How about the Arab spring Obama backed? How about he and FJB doing nothing when Putin took northern Crimea? Benghazi gun running.
I remember a certain US President that slaughtered thousands of American Indians.
American Indians?
So, try this. There were (4) French and Indian wars and our Revolution. Each time the majority of Indians were recruited by European Powers to slaughter American men, rape the women and then take them and the children as slaves.. The men were often tortured and then scalped
After 75 years of the “Indians” screwing us we said, “The only good Indian is a dead one.” The Indians made lousy, fateful choices and I don’t feel remotely sorry for what they did to themselves.
Tough shit.
Think this is more about pipelines than morals. That train pulled out of Moscow and Kiev a long time ago. DC as well.
LMFAO!!!! Are you an American or were you born yesterday?
How many countries has the US invaded under the cover of “national interest” or “protecting America”which was really about elite interests? Spare everyone your bullshit! Grow up and look at the world with your own eyes, not the medias.
Sorry, the Ukrainian people fell for the Bush and Obama color revolutions. They made there bed with all the corrupt pieces of shit. I hope the Ukrainian government is completely destroyed and then burned into oblivion. Every single one of them Nazi supporters.
Christian. If faced with death to you and your family or living under Russian rule, which would you choose?
And that is why I hate them. Not one good man amongst them. Ukraine is just a money laundering machine for the US
there is no slaughter happening
the nonstop exaggeration is killing me
The insertion of MItt Romney who didn’t serve during Vietnam pisses me off no end.
Spent his mission in France. Hard work, you know.
Bien sûr.
That must be where he met his alter ego Pierre Delecto
tl, you’re pissing on the wrong fire hydrant. I had no desire to become useless “cannon fodder” in VN. Had the Ruskies or Red Chinese attacked American soil, you can be damned sure I would have enlisted to protect us. I advised my oldest son to join the military in 2003, not to get him killed, but to instill discipline and self-discipline. VN was a bogus war.
Mitt Romney graduated from high school in 1965. He went to Stanford, which gave him an automatic college-attendance draft deferment. You see, VN was very different from WWII, where 18-22 y/o college students were draftable. Okay, he wasn’t drafted while doing 2 years of missionary work, but he could have just stayed in college and escaped being drafted until 1969. With law school, sans missionary service, 1972.
Donald John Trump got a college exemption until June 1968, five months after Gen. Creighton Abrams told America, “This was is unwinnable,” i.e. your sons will be useless cannon fodder if they get drafted.
Remember, DJT did not create the VN-era rules. When his college-exemption ended in June 1968, he was eligible for an academic deferment, that is he could have extended draft deferment by 3 years (law school) or 6 years (PhD school), either of which he could have gotten into.
People who accuse Trump of getting a bogus “Corporal Bonespurs” draft evasion, overlook the fact that he easily could have gotten into law school or PhD school, after which, he would have gotten a totally safe office job.
On the other hand, Joe Biden contrived an “asthma” draft-escape. His Draft Board failed to read learlier ocal news-clippings of his feats on the football field. They failed to interview his coaches. “Joe is outstanding in wind-sprints. He has no lung problems of any kind. I don’t know anything about medicine. Maybe the childhood disease of asthma can appear suddenly in adulthood.” Joe Biden never showed any shortness of breath, wheezing or any other evidence of asthma.
“genocide” great, is everything genocide now? well, I guess only Davos-approved things
It’s the new racist.
Bush did far far worse to Iraq, a country not even on our border. Shock and Awe did not even try to save civilians.
But I guess it was a New World Order approved war
Because if they had saved the infrastructure there would have been no need for contractors to come in and rebuild, Bush and crew wouldn’t have made nearly as much money, same w/the Stan. Death and destruction sells, and makes money.
Protect our own boards before we go elsewhere. America first.
FJB
If the neo-con lunatics ever get Biden’s handlers to impose a no-fly zone over Ukraine, that can’t be contained, that’s war with Russia. The fact that it is even being talked about indicates immature marginal personalities are a force at State.
Totally agree. These people are insane. The instant NATO/EU/US shoots at Russian planes, we know what happens next.
it might be bad enough that jet fighters will be based in Poland. So what if Russia attacks those fighter in Poland?
So Republicans like this idiot are encouraging Ukrainians to continue fighting Russia and commit suicide because there’s no way Ukrainians can win and Putin doesn’t care about sanctions!
The thing is, once this is over it will be forgotten in 2 weeks and we’ll be covering the next George Floyd story.
For me, Biden’s refusal to stop importing Russian oil says in huge glaring letters, that he was never serious about this war.
Doesn’t sound like he is listening to Peppermint Patty either. She want’s us to quit oil and gas altogether. Not ours, not anybody’s. Just build more windmills!
So Joe will probably say great things about windmills tonight.
I don’t know what Baked Potato Joe will say about how great windmills are, but I guarantee he will be “tilting at windmills”.
Bless her heart. She thinks Americans are free…
You may remember a Ukrainian called Dmitri Firtash. Obama’s DOJ trumped up fake charges against Firtash in order to pave the way for George Soros to do a hostile takeover of Firtash’s Ukrainian oil and gas company. Soros needs Americans to die in order to save his wealth from that big, bad Putin.
Speaking of bad press, I have read some comments in various places talking about how Putin has “turned the whole world against him.” What these people are failing to recognize is that Putin isn’t ramping up the rhetoric. In fact, he’s been pretty quiet. What that tells you is, Putin doesn’t care what you think. You see, you can’t destroy the reputation of a man whose reputation you’ve already destroyed. You can’t make Putin the bad guy in your plot for the last six years and then suddenly expect him to worry about his reputation. Putin has nothing to lose, so there’s no reason to defend his reputation. The NWO is fighting the wrong war: the battle of public opinion. Putin doesn’t care what the rest of the world thinks about him, and “public opinion” won’t have one single effect on his ultimate end goal.
Putin has counted his losses already, and he’s declared his red line in the sand, and that red line is, if the US starts trying to topple the economy in Russia, Putin says he has nothing left to lose, so why not let loose the nukes? The US has already capitulated to this red line in the sand, which is why all the “sanctions” we hear about are toothless.
All this world unity is just a big show for the gullible. They can scream “solidarity” all they want, but until they’re committing troops on the ground, it’s all just meaningless platitudes, and Ukraine is the sacrificial lamb on the altar of useless political posturing.
Excellent points, Michael B.
I was under the impression that two very large states/provinces bordering on Russia had 90 & 80 % of their populations that very much wanted to be a part of Russia.
And when Hispanic immigrants, legal and illegal, reach a majority in Texas they will have an undeniable case for reunification with Mexico.
Makes sense to me.
I’m here in Mexifornia and they can have it. Would probably improve things by a good margin.
We’re already invaded and illegals being re-settled at taxpayers expense
Our Borders are no apparent concern
Just Ukraine 🇺🇦
✅️🌎😳
Democrats and Repubilcans are 100% in favor of it.
I’m sorry. Is it a bit hyperbolic? These politicians should check first the words they use because they really look like idiots. Webster definition of genocide: “The deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group”.
So far Putin has shown an enormous amount of constraint in Ukraine so her calling it a “genocide” does not pass a smell test. However, if she and many others like her continue calling it that, then, our old USA is guilty tenfold of the genocide she accuses Russia of (I am not talking about Soviet Union here). And if that’s the case, we should call international tribunals to bring into justice Bush, Obama, and Biden for never ending wars. C’mon people. Use some critical thinking here.
What do you call a man who funded a bio weapon that, when released, killed millions and ruined economies.? What do you call the country that was responsible, for unleashing it and then hiding it? War is brutal and the media and the politicians love touting photos and videos of Ukranian citizens with bandages, waiting in lines holding children, etc. and I wish they were not going through that either, but how is it that no one cares about millions our lives lost and ruined by China? Dying on a ventilator is not pretty either.
Because China is paying off our politicians.
Exactly 💯 👍 👌
“They want to be with the United States of America. They want to be free people. They want to be with the West.”
Lol, they want to be “free” like us. Eye roll!
All I know is I would love a Lemon Drop made w/Russian vodka right now, followed by a Dirty Martini, double olives.
I am starting feel the same cycle of anti-vaxxer syndrome, if you are neutral or don’t necessarily support filthy corrupt Soros founded Ukraine then you are evil.
Being liked by leftards and neocons would give me heartburn. They will not distract me from election theft and the loss of American freedoms.
Ditto!
In my area they’re putting up anti Putin pro Ukraine posters around posts and lights. These are lefty agitator tactics. That tells me something.
One thing is certain: if the communists had not succeeded in stealing an election, Trump would be president and Putin would not have invaded Ukraine.
Exactly 👍 👌 ✅️ 💯
I’m more concerned about the real, present-day Nazi, and isn’t Vladimir Putin. Watch Turkey, and Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who is making great strides in
reviving the Islamic Kalipha.
Do not be deceived, lest you be caught off guard.
Geopolitical Sesame Street.
https://rumble.com/vw6hrb-kamala-harris-breaks-down-what-is-happening-between-ukraine-and-russia.html
Putin shouldn’t have done this and let Ukraine be a sovereign country. Even President Trump would have said, “Not on my watch” which is what he said about when Putin took Crimea. Ukrainians are still pissed off about that, according to my Ukrainian sister in law, “He just took it.”
I’m really done with Putin, he’s screwed himself with this now there will never be a reconciliation with Russia; neocons and neoliberals, globalists, WEF, Soros, Clinton, the utter corruption, notwithstanding.
My sister in law’s family, including her mother, are in Eastern Ukraine and scared and helpless. I already posted about this on the other article.
Let’s face it, Putin is in cahoots with all the bad actors: Venezuela, China, Cuba, North Korea. This can’t all be a head fake.
Putin calculated correctly.
He understood the US/Europe would never, ever engage in combat with Russia over Ukraine.
He understands no matter the short term economic pain on the rouble and temporary freezing of assets (note, they were not confiscated) that Europe will always need Russian energy.
He understands he can finish this any time he chooses. Getting too hot for the Russian population? He declares the 2 eastern provinces Russian and goes home.
I can’t see how he loses.
Ever see that cartoon where the sheep are in the middle of the field and the one “conspiracy theorist” sheep is saying to another sheep, “I tell you, Eunice, the man and the dog are working together.”?
Does it feel like Putin is waiting on something, biding his time, having already taken out the targets that he really wanted? Like, he is sitting there, pulling in the Western elites to full commitment, counting on them to act like themselves, with a good degree of panic over their crimes being exposed furthering their rush into the bear trap, and then . . . ??
Taiwan?
and having fallen over their own feet to go all out on Ukraine, the entire West is caught off guard?
The man and the dog might just be working together.
I would have agreed with you two years ago but not anymore. Our own government has behaved just as badly as some of these countries. Bad actors really, most of our politicians are bad actors.
I am not sure right now how I feel about Putin. I do feel sorry for the Ukrainian people and I hope this ends soon but to say that he is any worse than our political leaders I just can’t agree.
he proposed just that. a sovereign and neutral nation NOT in anti-russian NATO
He’s been trying to get us to the peace table and establish workable and just security guarantees for decades.
We’ve been much less than constructive in this regard.
Great, we have our own Great Thunberg in the U.S. Congress now.
Greta Thunberg…
Ms. Spartz gives an impassioned speech.
I am continually reminded that the most effective politicians are actors. They are effective emoters.
It is horrific to envision women and children being machine-gunned-down by ruthless soldiers.
But given today’s ubiquitous cellphone cameras, why have we not seen any videos of these atrocities? What interest would it serve Putin to allow, much less order, this gratuitous carnage?
I’m sorry Ms. Spartz, but I don’t believe you. You have an “R” after your name, but so do Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, 6 other “Republican” House members who voted to impeach PDJT, Mitt Romney, Lisa Murkowski, Paul Ryan, and other members of the NWO/globalist-agenda supporting cast.
This atrocious-cruelty narrative “confirms” Putin’s alleged mental derangement. But, he hasn’t actually demonstrated derangement. No news outlet has shown carpet-bombing, of which Putin has also been accused.
Alternative news sites indicate that the Russians have surrounded Kyiv, EXCEPT for leaving a western escape corridor open to allow/encourage people to flock to Poland, and even MSM says that hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing westward.from Kiev.
In fact it is the Ukraine government that is selectively allowing women, children and elderly men to leave, while conscripting all males age 18-60 to fight. (If the Russians were universally hated, no Ukrainian men would have to be impressed, would he?)
Kamala Harris on Ukraine:
…… “Speaking slowly, Harris began, “So, Ukraine is a country in Europe.”
“It exists next to another country called Russia,” she continued. “Russia is a bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine.
So, basically, that’s wrong, and it goes against everything that we stand for.”……

Here’s the Call-In radio Program where she said this this AM.
starts @3:00
Zelensky has better press agents than Putin.
I’m sure Zelinsky would let us do an air show in his airspace.
My rule #`1 – when the same people that told me I’m a domestic terrorist for believing the 2020 election was stolen from Trump, who told me their Covid-19 response was totally legit while I was hateful of Grandma, are now telling me Ukraine is suffering atrocities, are 100% Ukraine, and Russia/Putin are the second coming of Hitler….
….my spidey sense goes off.
Are these people suddenly 100% truthful, whereas not even 2 weeks ago they had to be taken with 2 tons of salt?
My rule #2 – when the anecdotal evidences of the fog of war do not match up conditions actually being observed….
…something isn’t right.
My rule #3 – when those desiring to put me under their thumb (Klaus Schwab, the WEF, China) are all 100% behind going to war over Ukraine…
….the truth is somewhere else.
It looks like too many people have not learned the lessons of the power of the current propaganda machine employed against us.
Election – bad
Covid – bad
Ukraine – DING! DING! DING! Winner!
Uhh…really?
Must have been reading your mind (comment below) before seeing yours.
This is how it looks to me too.
Putin is already doing us a favor, undermining the anti-fossil fuel climate scam, because for Europe and the US, windmills and solar are not going to cut it, especially if they want to undermine Russia’s energy income stream by lowering energy prices.
The contrast between Republican Victoria Spartz defending her native country, and the RINOs surrounding her who REFUSED to even honor their Oath of Office by DEFENDING the USA from Election Theft and REVERSING IT is stunning.
Absolutely…
Absolutely agreed!
The irony is so thick and dense, it can’t be cut with a knife….
Brilliant point. The solemn looks are an especially nice touch. F-’em all.
Since Americans are wont to virtue signal, it’s high time to capitalize on it. I’ll call my nonprofit More Than Words. For a monthly fee, More Than Words will deploy a fighter to far-flung regions. Each month, you’ll get a photo of your fighter on the frontlines. Sign up for our app and receive instant updates you can share with your friends at parties or on coffee breaks at work!
When your fighter’s killed, do the fees continue or does a new fighter volunteer to “step up”.
When your fighter’s wounded, do the fees double as the monthly photos shift to the the wounds or the hospital bed?
We’re an economical-minded nonprofit. We’re use only fighters who have nine or more lives, like the journalist Bernie Gores that CNN said was killed in both Afghanistan and, most recently, again in Ukraine. We’ll hire from reputable sources like CatTurd or Grand Old Memes or Mostly Peaceful Memes.
Aka “Wag the Dog”, can we get assurances that Dustin Hoffman will be producing the photos and Robert DeNiro will be recruiting the “fighters”?
I’ll ask Dustin Hoffman once he’s out of his tanning bed.
Robert DeNiro, sadly, is currently unfit to hire fighters as he’s undergoing anger management and has to perform 100 hours of virtue signaling before restrictions are lifted.
What did she have to say about the Odesa tragedy of May 2014, in which nearly 50 people were burned alive by radical Maidan supporters and which has never been solved in Ukraine
She got into office pretty fast, having come from Ukraine. Seems like it.
Boo Hoo. It was fine when Ukrainians killed separatists
Sundance said, “Ultimately, if the United States ever fully dissolves the distinction of states, we will see greater conflict.”
According to the article below, the WHO (World Health Organization) is wanting to introduce a global process that will unify all countries with a determined response to any future pandemics. It will be written into a “Constitution of The World Health Organization”. They titled this new process, “The World Together”. Their first meeting to finalize the plan was scheduled to convene today, 3/1/2022. They plan to meet again in August 2022, then there will be a progress report at the 76th annual World Health Assembly in 2023, and they will submit the outcome by the 77th World Health Assembly in 2024. I have a feeling that if they are allowed to go through with this, individual states across the United States will not have much say so over the health care of their residents. This is just another One World Order agenda item.
Please folks, if you haven’t done so yet, please consider accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. All of this is prophesied in the Bible. We are living in the last days and Jesus is coming for the Church soon! He is our only Hope! He loves you and doesn’t want anyone to perish. We cannot stop what is coming. It is all meant to play out this way.
God bless you all as you consider your future.

Is this public statement not also timed just so? Did she do a press conference about the actual genocide in China regarding the Olympics or any other time? She may have some real concerns about relatives, but I don’t trust her motives.
Victoria mewls about how mean other men are, expecting that American eunuchs should save Ukraine. But, Victoria…for 30 years American males have been emasculated to make way for Grlll Power. It’s why you are a Congressman.
Who do you want to rescue you?
Watching the various news channels for a few minutes – do any of these news reporters/anchors have any shame at all?
None of them pursued information about the people left behind in Afghanistan and now we have George Soros, George Bush and others urging us to jump into Ukraine?
They are monsters.
I don’t think they give a damn about the people IN Ukraine, OF Ukraine – to these grifters, the people are expendable, fodder – what is important is the “military industrial complex” and the “NGO complex” and biolabs and all kinds of projects, investments and access to riches at the expense of the people.
George W. Bush: what about all the little Lauras and Georges who were born soon after our American forces went into Afghanistan and liberated the people from the Taliban – all those men, lined up to shave off the damn beards, their wives and children able to breathe free.
You are a bunch of users.
She is another GOPe traitor. A liar.
How can it be a genocide when there is no evidence of any number of civilians being killed? There were probably more people killed in the streets of blue state cities last week than all of Ukraine.
Hillary: “Reset button?”
Putin: “That says overcharge.”
I understand why she is emotionally invested, but Ukraine is not our Alamo, not even close.
And let’s not use the strong words like genocide or racism in context that really deflates their true meaning.
“Is Putin all good, no. Is Putin all bad, no. The same applies for just about every leader.”
May I add except for Biden and his minions they all bad.
Wanna volunteer to go fight shoulder to shoulder with Ukrainians, go ahead. Dont send our military to attempt a resuce.
I have a healthy suspicion of people who emigrate to another country and immediately get involved in politics.
The hubris, it burns.
Ukrainian wives.
Awan brothers had Ukrainian wives.
15 million people were killed in Ukraine during WW2.
Now what?
More war?
Not interested.
then the u.s. shouldn’t have sent mossad sayan vicky nuland to do its dirty work, work she was only too eager to do.
trump at least had the sense and decency not to employ her, unlike clinton, bush, obama (other clinton), and biden.
Mossad?? Care to elaborate?
Mossad is connected with Obama who wants to follow the Quran’s command about Israel? I don’t think so.
Nuland is simply on Team F Things Up, and so in a natural for a re-run in Obama ‘s 3rd term.
Immediately? SHe’s been here for 20 yrs
So she is Ukrainian. Well then she should go home and fight for her country and quit trying to get Americans involved.
