There comes a time in every performance of the United Nations production when the arch villain bombs the milk factories. Today, Russian President Vladimir Putin takes his turn.
As we return to our seats from the lobby during commercial interlude, we discover the model U.N. interns have left the blue and yellow ribbons on our seats. We know exactly what segment of the melodrama comes next; the children are suffering.
The well attired gentlemen in the mezzanine know this is the moment when they must position their freshly pressed pocket kerchief for quick access. Heart strings will be pulled, and silk gowns do not fare well as the tears begin to flow. Well educated chivalry, passed down from father to son, has prepared them for this moment. It’s not quite time for the checkbooks yet; first they must feel the sound of the violins.
Surprisingly, Bono and Geldorf have not yet made their appearance. However, with the speed of modern social media, and knowing the technology of our time means we cannot wait, the EU assembly must lay the groundwork for the great American oration that is center stage from the Capitol later tonight.
New York – Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky urged the EU to “prove you are with us” in a defiant speech on Tuesday.
Mr Zelenesky, who has become a symbol of defiance for his country, issued an impassioned speech via video link, where he called on the EU to stand with Ukraine as Russia continues its deadly advance on the country.
During his speech, Mr Zelensky described the missile strikes on Kharkiv, as an act of terror against the city, and indeed Ukraine.
As he spoke of the country’s fight to defend its “freedom” and land from the Russian invaders, the bloc’s official Ukrainian-English interpreter seemingly becomes emotional as he listened to Mr Zelensky’s defiant speech. Mr Zelensky said: “Without you, Ukraine is going to be lonesome. We have proven our strengths. We are exactly the same as you. (more)
New York II – […] The Ukrainian president’s rallying cry brought members of the European Parliament, many wearing t-shirts emblazoned with #standwithUkraine or wearing blue and yellow rubbons, to their feet.
It also brought the English interpreter to tears, with his voice audibly faltering as he translated the speech, in which Mr Zelensky declared: ‘Nobody is going to break us. We are strong. We are Ukrainians.’
The rousing reception was in stark contrast to scenes over in Geneva, where ambassadors and diplomats staged a mass walkout as Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov addressed a UN human rights forum. (read more)

Welcome to the Last Refuge.
Zelensky is fighting Putin on more fronts.
Zelensky is winning hearts and minds around the world. His actions are bringing Ukraine support.
Putin……not so much!
We are in a new era where technology and communications may just be the heavy artillery to a underpowered state.
And Russias invasion is being taped at every angle for the world to see. Another new development.
How does Putin win this?
He may just win himself back Ukraine while he cuts off his own Russians from the world. Is that a win? At that cost?
Zelensky is winning IMO.
The comedian/actor influencing more than KGB/Russian Leader of 20 yrs?
Putin may get Ukraine but he will have lost much more.
Surely by now you have learned the difference between brightly painted “narrative” and cold hard facts. If Putin gets Ukraine, he gets all the many and varied resources it contains. The world will conveniently forget everything, when it needs those resources from Russia.
War is always about displacing others and taking their resources, by whatever means it is waged – and if you’ve ever watched an anthill, you know it’s not only humans engaging in this type of activity. Even plants such as Kudzu vines do it.
Clarissa, precisely. Amazing how many posters here have been taken in by the propaganda.
wrong-check-The Vineyard of the Saker…. bho toothy smile did magic …too on half population too…..
You’re making the mistake of believing what you see on TV. It’s propaganda.
He was a comedian at one time so who knows..that might be possible..You have to step back in this situation my friend and think..The man is corrupt as heck..and he was very close to Biden..The truth getting out could be..not a good thing for him..Haha..funny..Zelensky is not winning..You don’t even know what is contrived and what isn’t so how in the world do you even know who is winning what..Why do they want us not to hear what RT news says?..We are smart enough to figure it out..So ask yourself why..do they not want us to hear what Russia Today has to say..They have taken it off so we can’t hear it..It is called misinformation..When did we hear that last????
But why TF are they still wearing the face diapers??
It is the loudest and most obnoxious virtue signaling device yet invented. Well, in modern times. Back in the day, the Pharisees used to wear what were called phylacteries on their heads to prove they were righteous followers of the law. It has always been customary to brand oneself with tribal loyalties especially among the poorer or less educated in society. Very similar to the swastika armband used to display party membership among the progressives of a former era in a certain country. I know your comment was rhetorical and you know perfectly well why they still wear the face diapers but, I couldn’t resist the opportunity:)
Excellent set of historical references there, Hitchhiker.
“We stand with the oligarchs and banksters ruling us for the Great Reset! We want [you] to own nothing and be happy! All hail The Powers That Be Forever!”
Hail Hydra !!
Ooooh. Now that’s creepy JB
President Vladimir Putin,
Forget Ukraine.
Why?
If you have your specialty teams smoke our uniparty and round up the majority of the global elitist, you’ve essentially solved 99% of all the world’s problems and your own.
I personally would be too embarrassed to go to war against a twinkle-toe like zelenskyy. He’s pathetic AND disgusting.
I started happy-hour a little early today, so I’m feeling frisky.
Just my thoughts at the present. Few more shots and I’m telling everybody how the cow eats the cabbage.
His people are being killed off in Eastern Ukraine. Literally being crucified and set on fire. The Azov neo Nazis are ruthless and Zelensky is a dirty capo puppet that empowers them. Putin cannot have a corrupt puppet of the US next door. I think his goal is to retake eastern Ukraine and eventually take out Zelensky and his PM.
Putin is surely as aware as am I, that the entire WEF crowd gathers yearly at a single location with known GPS coordinates.
The media is really playing people for fools. Russia is going to crush Ukraine. The media is doing it’s typical trash reporting. they report all bad that happens to russia and only good that happens to Ukraine. in the end PUtin will be victorious and everyone will be left shocked. The left thought over and over Trump was going down only to find out that Rachel Maddow and the rest lied their rear ends off. Same thing is happening here. The media is pushing all kinds of bogus propaganda that helps Ukraine. My point is, don’t be shocked when Ukraine folds.
100 percent right..People are so freaking gullible..Research people..Study..Stop listening to those that actually support these fools..Why do you think Zelensky wants to join..NATO..??? He is so corrupt….All of them are..Stop believing there is a good guy people..There are no good guys..Isn’t there a song that says that..?? lol
TikTok is going INSANE over Zelensky right now. Even manly men are man-crushing on the guy. Gotta say, he definitely has the charm and chrisma that Vlady-boy lacks. Now I don’t know much about the guy and won’t even pretend to understand all of the inner machinations of the entire conflict at hand. All I do know is that I trust no one, particularly the left and the media. If they are rooting for this guy, I am suspect.
To be honest, I don’t know who to “root for” in this hot mess. I certainly have no love for KGB-bred Putin and his hopes of returning to the glory of the communist USSR. But I also don’t go for this one-world-government crud they’ve been heaving at us the past few decades either.
Who do I root for? I root for the people. The Russian people. The Ukranian people. The American people. All of the people that are just getting up each morning and doing what it takes to love and care for their families and one another. I truly believe that is the heart of this world. Every day people like us. They love their spouses and their kids and their parents and thier neighbors and in many cases their God.
So when my daughter asked me “who’s side” are we on, I simply told her God’s side. Because at the end of the day, He will sort all of this out and His side is the only side that really counts.
Here is Putin telling his side of the story.
It should help you to respond to your daughters question as you wait for God to sort it all out.

Superb article there, Johnny $$. That is a TREEPER MUST-READ.
Putin doesn’t care.Z is a comedian..He can act.Putin doesn’t act he moves the chess pieces..Stop with making this corrupt piece of crap a movie star…If you root for the people then pray that they get someone in there that is not corrupt..but good luck with that.But you are right..God’s will is all that matters..He is the one that we need to look to..No matter what we say or do…it will be his will that will win.
Ukraine will always have a corrupt leader. This time it is one installed by our corrupt government. The next one will be installed by Putin. And so on. They will always be a pawn to one side or the other.
Perhaps he was installed by the US but I don’t think they’re liking him all that much
I’m with mzmarymac. I don’t trust the leaders on either side of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. I know with the greatest of all certainty that I cannot trust the corrupt media, the U.N., NATO or the U.S. President to lead me to the truth. Instead, I choose to trust my God who truly cares about me and all the other innocent people who will be hurt by this conflict.
I pray constantly for my own family member, a US Marine who was deployed to the region in Feb, for the Ukrainian people who are being led to the slaughter by Zelensky, and the poor young Russians who had no choice but to go start killing people for reasons they probably don’t know or don’t believe in. They are all victims of sick games played by sick people.
Stop NATO expansion.
At 9 ET, I think I’ll put on some Tchaikovsky…just to piss off Soros and his RINO herd.
Remember: Satan comes as an angel of light.
What does Bill Bennet Always say?
Every saint has a past every sinner has a future.
Who would have guessed that the Future Leader of Ukraine would have this in his past?
Macron must really like him.
Make it stop
Tongues and Stilettos? The only thought that came to my mind was Mystery Science Theater 3000!
This orchestrated psyops BS sickens me. All of it. And I include the video released by the Senate Republicans. Of course they are concerned about losing their lucrative money laundering spot. And the RINO congresswoman and her speech.
Zelensky seems suicidally stupid – people should not follow him, he will get them hurt or killed. Zelensky can’t stop the vacuum bomb.
Save Ferris !
The world is being run by men who treat us like children. Emotional manipulation is rampant.
Today out of nowhere every 3rd post on FB is save Ukraine….. So obvious what the push is….
Yep; FOLLOW the MONEY!!!
Rightedition.com 02/23/2022, article, “Ukraine Is A Part Of Russia, Meaning Russia Can Enter At Any Time.”
“04/07/2014, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon made a stunning statement, the distribution of which in Ukrainian media and the internet is banned. The conflict between the two countries was discussed at the session of the UN Security Council. From this the following conclusion was drawn:
Ukraine has not registered its borders since 12/25/1991. The UN has not registered the borders of Ukraine as a sovereign state.
Therefore, it can be assumed that Russia is not committing any rights violations in relation to Ukraine.”
It has also been reported that Ukraie is the base of a huge criminal organization. If Putin were trying to get rid of the criminals in Ukraine, wouldn’t that be a proper duty for a leader?
I am so tired of politicians and the media shaping a story so they can get what they want.
I am still looking for Iraq’s Weapons of Mass Destruction!
Standing ovation for Zelensky. Mocking laughter for Trump.
Nobel prize for Obama. The Steele Dossier for Trump.
I have no use for these NWO globalists and their cheers or jeers. They don’t give a rat’s ass about Ukraine. It’s all Kabuki.
They will continue to buy Russian oil and Russian gas and their children will not go to Ukraine to die for its “freedom.” Freedom to be plundered. 10% to the big guy. Someone will make big bucks by shipping weapons to Ukraine as well.
Who told Zelensky it was a smart move to deliver this “defiant” speech during the negotiations while his cities are surrounded by the overwhelming military force? Let me guess, the State Department? So, the reckless PR campaign is all his strategy? He probably realizes that his political career is about to come to a screeching halt… Anyone with a few intact brain cells understands by now that Putin wants a regime change, a neutral buffer zone and a reliable puppet and a trade partner, not the destruction of the country or occupation 4evah so he could bathe in virgins blood and place grandma in gulag.
it seems Zelensky is ready to drag us all into the WW3 instead of making a deal with Putin, if that’s what it takes to stay in power. That’s my interpretation of the situation anyway.
Make a deal? You mean like giving up all the freedoms of everyone in his country forevermore, that kind of deal? You people have all been listening to too many Russian bots.
Yes, make a deal. What are his other options, at this point? NATO is not going to start a war. They have their little puppet that almost outlived his usefulness. They will hug him, give him a participation trophy and wish good luck.
Reality check.
Surrender and make the best deal you can. There is no other sensible option. None. It is that simple. The false narrative of “Putin is weak (because he is not destroying cities, civilian infrastructure and avoids civilian casualties by avoiding combat whenever possible) trololol Ukraine is kicking his ass lolol” and at the same time “omg this hitler killz babies and everything please come save us” are falling apart in real time. The reality is Putin methodically annihilated all their planes, military installations, encircled the cities with minimal fighting (that’s why there is zero footage of any serious fight) and established check points. Checkmate.
As for “giving up all the freedoms”, maybe they should have thought twice before antagonizing the friggin SUPERPOWER by flirting with Dementia Joe and NATO? Isn’t that a classic case of F around and find out?
Many people on “our side” need a reminder that the first casualty of war is the truth.
Nearly every headline is more propaganda.
Michael Jackson is not around but that might not stop the networks from pulling out “We Are the World…WE are the children….”.
Douglas MacGregor was on Tucker tonight to address the “truth,” as Tucker says.
He is the only military person I trust. Except for General Flynn.
Amen!
They’re used to being able to cram their chutzpah down your throat. I will certainly spit it out. I’m not with you as you use your citizens as human shields and cannon fodder.
Bono and Geldorf … has Neil Young released a tribute song yet?
