Heh, it’s almost as if Team Zelenskyy read the tea leaves inside the New York Times editorial opinion recently [SEE HERE] that warned Joe Biden he better get to a negotiated peace deal quickly or the administration will look even worse than it already does.
Two days after the New York Times editorial board says, “it is still not in America’s best interest to plunge into an all-out war with Russia, even if a negotiated peace may require Ukraine to make some hard decisions; and the U.S. aims and strategy in this war have become harder to discern, as the parameters of the mission appear to have changed,” now Zelenskyy is saying he needs to enter diplomatic talks with Russia.
(BBC News) – The war in Ukraine can only be resolved through “diplomacy”, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said. Speaking on national TV, he suggested his country could be victorious against Russia on the battlefield. However, he added that the war could only come to a conclusive halt “at the negotiating table”.
Meanwhile, heavy fighting is taking place in and around Severodonetsk, as Russian forces step up efforts to seize the whole of the Luhansk region.
The end of fighting in the southern port city of Mariupol has freed up Russian troops for redeployment elsewhere and allowed them to intensify their onslaught in the east. Local governor Serhiy Haidai said the Russians were “destroying” Severodonetsk as they gradually surrounded it. (read more)
Don’t forget there was a critical point made two weeks ago by Defense Intel Agency (DIA) Director Lt. Gen. Scott Berrier, that not a single media outlet or politician discussed. During his briefing to the Senate Armed Services Committee, Berrier was asked “can Ukraine win” the conflict against Russia?
Lt. General Berrier replied: “That is a difficult predication to make. I think where the assessment is at, is a prolonged stalemate should no factor change on either side. In other words, the Russians continue to do what they’re doing, and we continue to do what we are doing for the Ukranians.” [link]
The facts on the ground show that Russia has gained almost all of the territory they were trying to achieve. The Ukrainians are getting crushed, and they’ve lost the ports and cities they were fighting hardest to defend. “BBC correspondent James Waterhouse said Russia had increased its artillery and air strikes as well as missile attacks – gaining ground mile by mile in Luhansk while the Ukrainians are forced to retreat.”
Comrade Zelenskyy is like the idiot knight in the Monty Python skit who gets his arms and legs chopped off and shouts, “merely a flesh wound.”
In another development, Russia has switched off its gas supply to Finland after it refused Moscow’s demand to pay for fuel in Russian roubles.
Why would Zelenskyy want a diplomatic solution now if, according to the western media, his forces are having such stunning successes against the Russians? Perhaps there is something we are not being told? Perhaps the situation is very different and the weapons and money pouring in has been as ineffective as the billions of dollars and tons armaments that the US poured into Afghanistan? Perhaps the US senate needs a cost benefit analysis of the money given to Ukraine and every warmonger senator booted out?
You want to kick out 80% of our Senate? Outstanding idea!…
Good start!
Ukraine is not winning anything other then the US Aid Lottery. The Russians have liberated Mariupol, captured Kherson and occupied the strategically pivotal city of Poposanya and more territory in the east. The land bridge to Crimea has been effectively solidified. Railroad access to the Ukrainian front lines has been seriously depleted. Russia has taken +/- 6000 prisoners. Ukraine has lost upwards of 50,000 troops to KOA, plus the wounded. NATO/US are feverishly training a new batch of troops in western Ukraine to match up with new weapons being pumped in to prepare for a summer counteroffensive to push Russia back in the east. The counteroffensive will determine the outcome of the war. Russia has the option of cutting of all energy to Europe prior to the Ukrainian the counteroffensive – then all bets are off.
At least the Ukrainians want to fight which is the difference between the billions we spent to “train” Syrians.
I believe the Syrians that we trained became ISIS. So they did use some of the training and weaponry that the U. S. taxpayers provided. Talk about unintended consquences.
This is having the exact consequence that biden intended. He gives the money to the Ukraine leader and then the Ukraine gives it back to us – unbeknownst to the general public. Because then biden and his dimwit administration can use it for their green new deal crap, or build more electric cars and charging stations (what a joke) or any number of other completely idiotic things that moron has talked about. The one thing he refuses to acknowledge is that he had to cheat to get where he is, so that he could wreck the only America most of us have ever known.
You can tell there’s something wrong with biden, and the same thing is wrong with his staff – – they’re a bunch of greedy bastardo’s who just can’t get enough money. They don’t want us to have anything to live on, however, so hike the prices to unreachable levels and that should kill off quite a few of us, and then of course there’s the killer shots already in use, and the killer shots coming this fall. He sure has a lot of republicans who are in on this deal, imagine that. Turncoats stick together, apparently.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – – buy gold, silver, junk silver, in small denominations so it’s easily spendable. Soon, it will be all the general public has. AND – – don’t put it in a bank, invest in a safe (do not buy it online, however). In fact, do nothing online if it has to do with money.
the money doesn’t come back to us … it comes back to the politicians and the corporate CEOs that own our politicians including Soros.
How will Ukraine drive a larger army out of what will be by summertime fortified defensive positions in the Donbas area. And how will these massive forces get across the Dnipro especially after Russia destroys the bridges. Russia will have hardened defenses and a significant natural barrier by summer
In June 1943, Adolph Hitler made a huge mistake in launching a futile offensive at Kursk, when he should have withdrawn all forces behind the Dneiper (as it was then called) and used this water barrier as a fundamental part of a last stand defensive line. Many of his generals were calling for this
His failure to do this allowed Red Army forces to cross the river against disorganized defenses and seal Germany’s doom. Im sure the modern day Russians understand this
“Perhaps there is something we are not being told” … gee, that’d be a first in today’s America.
Cost/Benefit analysis? That’s rich. That’s one thing the Biden administration doesn’t want to reveal. Right now the mantra is “Ukraine is saving Taiwan.”
There are two main things……
First his supreme force that were gonna fight to the death have now surrendered unconditionally……. and second the only weapons they can get are howitzers which are now being knocked out faster than they can send them.
The rest of the Donbass region will likely fall withing the next few days…….as many will surrender now the elite force have…..
Zelenskyy knows he has only days to go and will have no choice but to surrender to……. he is simply trying to get some crumbs……….. his cause is lost…… it was from the start.
To be sure, Zelensky doesn’t say a word that isn’t written by Tony Blinken’s State Department. Just like every word Kim Yun Un’s words are written by The CCP.
The fact that Zelensky said it tells me the $40 billion was the end. The corruptocrats can’t take a chance the whole amount will actually be spent on war, and they can’t let it become obvious there’s no money for war because it’s all been divvied up.
So they’ll allow Ukrainians to stop dying for their greedy scheme. How kind of them. We should all now heap praise on the warmongers turned “peacekeepers”.
Exactly.
No pity on zelensky, of all the money we have sent, he has taken his share. He has his billion and a safe place in some far off destination where he can quietly live out his years, including US paid security guards. We have supported other fallen leaders like this in the past. Think Shah of Iran, for one.
The best armaments in the world wont do diddley if they cant get to the relevant AO. Has anyone in Washington deigned to look at a map and notice that there is a water obstacle called the Dnipro River that completely separates Western Ukraine from the relevant AO and basically blocks all shipments from any and every NATO country
The media is simply playing off the irony of conventional wisdom being turned upside down. Russia was expected to roll over the Ukrainians and seize control of everything. Instead, Russia’s main efforts have been stypmied by the Ukrainians. Russia’s sole achievement has been the detruction of the city of Mariupol.
G-d should forgive me, but from the beginning of this fiasco, I’ve always felt that all President Pudding Brain did was remove the need for his crackhead son to go to the Ukraine to pick up the Big Guy’s share of the loot.
I still do, and it gets stronger with the passage of each and every “aid” bill.
obongo has found a way to outdo the grift the Clintoons have mastered over the years.
I fear you may be right – from the scenes on the tarmac showed when the remains of the soldiers foolishly sent to slaughter at Abby Gate were being returned for final burial, Joe Biden cares less about the troops than he does for average Americans. My gosh, Joe Biden so loved his idiot son Hunter that he turned him into a bagman for the Biden Crime Family.
Joe started out as bag man for the Baltimore unions and the Mob. See the book “I Hear You Paint Houses” which is the book that the Netflix movie ” The Irishman” was based on. The book was entertaining and compelling the movie was $hit.
Great thumbnail. God would approve.
He’s from Chicago, the only place which beats Arkansas for grifting.
Did you know the nickname “The windy city” comes not from the weather, but from the long tradition of Chicago politicians being known grifters and full of hot air.
And the Windy City used to be mighty pretty.
Players in this are 1)Russia 2) Zel/Ukraine 3) Biden and 4) Congress.
We the taxpayer FUND it all and go deeper in debt.
WHAT everyone gets out of this is something different but this playbook was seen in the last 20Y in AFghanistan.
USA sends massive $$cash that ends up in all 1-4 above.
USA sends equip/military intel/military equip that gets our military sector massive contractual $$$.
Said military equip gets divided up b/w Ukraine, Russia, China (just like Afghanistan).
And the world is happy….
Mission accomplished. He found what he was looking for.
It was buried under a big “W”. W, as in the West.
As long as the Russians don’t invade Miami, Zelensky is safe. He doesn’t even have to hide in a condemned hotel.
It’s under a big W …
Don’t worry folks, five-six years from now a trial regarding a low level lawyer for Biden will happen. In that trial a Biden guy will admit “Yep, Big guy was getting 10% from Ukraine…” but will be let off the hook cuz the judge and jury are compromised. Hey, at least then the media will have mentioned it…oh wait.
You really believe there is going to be a “five or six years from now”?
“People are always getting ready for tomorrow. I didn’t believe in that. Tomorrow wasn’t getting ready for them. It didn’t even know they were there.”
Cormac McCarthy, “The Road”
At first, I read 56 years from now, and thought, could be.
In 5-6 years, God only knows what will be happening, but trials will be short and sweet…
This was never about defending Ukraine. Looking at how our illegitimate corrupt administration has been acting. It was always about the billions, the administration could keep giving the Ukrainian government, before even the corrupt media would start questioning the policy. The money laundering operation was becoming too obvious.
Exactly!!
This was their last big grift of the American people.
Now that they have done so much damage to our country they know their days are numbered!
We should be thanking the Russians for stopping the whole show and cutting them a check instead.
Sundance, I’m sorry but you are talking about the wrong topic…haven’t you seen that the new current thing is: 🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒?
Monkeypox is going to kill us all!!! The news says so- its grave, grave, they tell me….
That’s sarcasm for those who missed it.
Read this morning that it may be STD related. Watch who you are monkeying around with-and wear a mask!
That would be 3 masks: for your eyes, for your ears and for your mouth!
https://babylonbee.com/news/fauci-recommends-stopping-spread-of-monkeypox-by-covering-eyes-ears-mouth/
If it is an STD, this idiotic administration might even recommend a crotch mask. 😁
WEAR 2 PROTECTIVE DEVICES (mil parlance)!!!!!
The more you know!!!! 😂🤣😃😎😎
Just dont hump monkeys of any breed and you will be fine….
Recommend Substack for Dr. Robert Malone on this topic. He has shown that he is truthful in the Sars Cov2 scam. Monkeypox is not new, transmits very slowly and does not mutate. Immunity is strong and other pox related vaccines are effective against it. It is not very dangerous if one gets it. The lies being promulgated by Gates confirm that it is not dangerous. Whenever the WHO, CDC, FDA, NIH, Gates Foundation, et al. make a claim, it is axiomatic that the opposite is true. These oprgans have achieved inverse credibility, like the FBI.
And all transmission this round has been via male-to-male sexual contact.
Sorry–already noted below by Keystonecon.
But wait, there’s more!

Stunning? More like “unsurprisingly.”
it’s in the gay community, just like AIDS started. People who say there’s nothing wrong with that lifestyle are insane and ignorant. Open the closet door and re-enter quietly, please.
the russians are the liberators.
the russians will hold referendums so the populace can choose weather or not they’d rather stay with russia.
the populace will vote to be russian by a margin of over 75%
this will make it obvious that the russians were doing the right thing
after the vote, you will never hear of the ukraine again.
The West will say the voting was rigged.
Because the West are rigged election experts.
The day before the last vote in the Donbas region of Ukraine on joining Russia an abandoned car was discovered with half a million ballots all saying Russia. In Crimea, Russia sent enough soldiers there to tip the vote. Yeah, visiting soldiers voted.
They looked at all the illegal aliens voting here and realized how easy it would be to get their desired outcome.
yeah right….according to the same people who claimed that putin planted the biden laptop.
There was no “tipping the vote” in Crimea. Eighty-three percent of the population voted and the vote was 97% for joining Russia. After the vote was counted, crowds of jubilant people came out in the squares to celebrate. Why would the people want to stay with Ukraine when ethnic Russians were so discriminated against?
“[C]rowds of jubilant people came out in the squares to celebrate.”
Today these same dupes are being rounded up by Russian impress gangs, given outdated Mosin-Nagant rifles and Korean War era kits and sent out to fight against well-equipped and highly motivated Loyalists.
Most of these revelers will die, surrender or be maimed for the remainder of their lives.
Bull.
Zelenskyy is a joke
Well, he was a comedian! Now he’s a wealthy corrupt politician! Did you know he has a $35 million villa in FL?!
He was rich before he ran for public office.
Yeah, and so was Ronnie Reagan. Did ya ever see Bedtime For Bonzo?
Just think about how many people in this country are still piddling around at the surface of the water…still listening occasionally to mass propaganda, never exposed to the depths below.
This is what it feels like to live in a controlled totalitarian state, filled with oligarchs who rule while enriching themselves enormously.
Those of us who took the red pill must deal with the horror, the stench, the filth of their power. Others (like soldiers) give their lives, their body parts, for the folly to play out. Meanwhile the pukes gather at Davos to plot their globalist agenda’s next steps.
Prayers for ultimate justice from our Lord, as it will not likely be delivered in this world.
So true. Those of us with children are also having to contend with their poisoning of the souls and minds of the innocents. You know, there is an epidemic of suicide, failed marriages, despair, drug overdose. Much of this related to the “joys” of confused sexuality they propagate. This monstrous evil has invaded many a home.
Thank God it didn’t invade MY home. But I know four people with five “transgender” kids. One already switched over to “non-binary” whatever that means.. I just hope these brainwashed kids don’t start chopping off their body parts.
Well if you had believed Daniel 2.44-45,47 that begins with “At the time of those kings, the Almighty One of heaven will establish a kingdom that will never be destroyed. No other people will be permitted to rule it. It will smash all the other kingdoms and put an end to them. But it will be established forever. . . ” you’d know this is the last hour . . . “Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.” ~ 1 John 2.18-19
That in Table 2 of a document at the NIH you’d see the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse (Rev.6.1-8) codified in their plan: “Pathogens and Politics: Further Evidence That Parasite – Prevalence Predicts Authoritarianism By Damian R. Murray, Mark Schaller, Peter Suedfeld – Department of Psychology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – Abstract: According to a “parasite stress” hypothesis, authoritarian governments are more likely to emerge in regions characterized by a high prevalence of disease-causing pathogens. Recent cross-national evidence is consistent with this hypothesis, but there are inferential limitations associated with that evidence. . . . (One additional threat—famine—also uniquely predicted authoritarianism.) Together, these results further substantiate the parasite stress hypothesis of authoritarianism, and suggest that societal differences in authoritarian governance result, in part, from cultural differences in individuals’ authoritarian personalities.” – https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3641067/pdf/pone.0062275.pdf
“This is the Apokalypsis . . . Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is at hand.” ~ Rev.1.1-3
“He said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb.’” He said to me, “These are true words of God.” ~ Rev.19.9
Dan.12.11-12, Rev.12.5-9 . . . I’m watching the ending of His Story (history) for all of mankind, and I can’t think of a more exiting time to live then now. . . “Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.” ~ Rev.12.12
There’s simply enough morons who don’t care to fill the pockets of the corrupt. When we run low on morons, we simply open the border floodgates. There’s a never ending stream of them that we could never hope to red pill.
Is Zelensky corrupt? He amassed an $850 million personal fortune in the years before the war with Russia
https://trump.news/2022-05-02-zelensky-amassed-850m-personal-fortune-before-war.html
Well he is a penist can can play Beethoven standing up!
I didn’t know Ludwig von wrote a one “finger” symphony. 🙂
Zelensky had the most popular TV show in Ukraine for years. It was a take-off of the old Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour format (if you remember which you probably don’t).
He is a smart guy and produced other popular TV programs. He was never considered corrupt – even by his electoral opponent, Petro Poroshenko.
C’mon Major, you aren’t going to produce facts to derail a popular narrative are you?
Sure am!
Unfortunately, I am but one lone, hidden truth-teller sniping at hordes of emotional Putin-lovers. For sure, many have managed to shrug off wounds inflicted by contrary fact. Primitive feelings are hard to eradicate with a single shot of truth. I may need to switch from a single-shot Winchester to a Remington pump shotgun.
Is that why before all the internet “scrubbing ” began that his opponents were adamant about Zelensky and Cronies being coke heads? Many-many articles written about it during his election campaign!
Even Putin in one of his early speeches mentioned drug addicted leaders in Ukraine.
Or before the “scrubbing ”
Began….that Zelensky approval polls were at 17%.
Probably why Ukraine media is now all State Run and all opposing political parties….shutdown.
He’s scared.
Zelensky is what he is…….a media and entertainment person. He made a lot of money with his various productions and developed the kind of “household name” throughout Ukraine that Donald Trump enjoyed in the U.S.
No one can dispute the fact that Volodomyr Zelensky has risen to the challenge of Putin’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine with courage, wit, energy, intelligence, and mature judgment. Putin met his match in Zelensky.
You have raised the same kind of unproven character attacks on Zelensky as were made against Donald Trump. Trump was so popular that his opposition resorted to massive election fraud to steal the 2000 Presidential contest from him in order to install a demented old hack in his place.
Zelensky has been doing a high-wire act with NATO, the EU, and the U.S. since before this war began. The fact that he has secured high levels of foreign aid for his beleaguered nation speaks volumes about his leadership and diplomatic efficacy. He’s the real deal.
Slava Ukraina!
The Bidens have been up to their neck in extortion and bribes out of Ukraine. So, the dirt on Hunter and Joe is immense. So the ante has been upped and we the taxpayers are on the hook. This is treason.
Why is Russia switching off gas to anywhere in Europe a problem? They can all just go green!
/sarc
Best comment yet!
With the azov nazis humiliated in Mariupol, Z has lost their intimidating presence elsewhere. They’ll get fragged by regular ukie troops if they get too mouthy. Morale changes. That’s why Z is speaking out. Those nazis are what the US spooks needed to press this war. Russia will go slow and wait for that eastern army to crumble. The end comes after that.
“Russia will go slow and wait for that eastern army to crumble. The end comes after that.”
This!
Ivan will grow weary of his daily portion of beetroot, raw onions and boiled potatoes.
Putin will continue to lose Generals and senior officers.
Counterbattery equipment will reduce the Russian rear area to scrap metal.
The end comes after that.
Thanks for the humor!
Treeper posted website to one that has accurate info and updates–
Not Western propaganda!
The Russian troops are taking selfies of being at the beach….sipping a cold one!
Patrick Lancaster pretty good to watch also.
The extortion money is in place time to get home to Miami for Zelensky.
New distraction…Monkey Pox.
Besides the 40B USD, there are a few other things to consider as to why the retreat has begun:
1) Apparently, there was a scheme by the “Biden” Administration to maneuver Russia into defaulting on some balance of payments later this week. However Putin anticipated this and made the payments ahead of schedule, preventing the default and a “Russia is Bankrupt” news cycle.
The propaganda is now returning diminishing yields, especially since…
2) There is, or was, a major push on the “Wheat Crisis” last week. Everyone probably saw stories about increasing missile shipments to Ukrainian forces in order to lift the blockade on the Black Sea.
Putin has claimed he is not blocking shipments, that Ukraine is responsible for disrupting shipping, and Russia intends to export its surplus as usual.
The truth of the situation is now largely irrelevant… the fall “Food Crisis” arc has sprouted, regardless of whether there is one and who may be responsible for it.
The slatterns in Kiev and Washington have their money, the World Economic Fabians have their next “emerging global crisis” requiring “innovative reformation,” and Ukraine can be allowed to fade into obscurity.
Given the Russian success and eventual annexation of the Donbass, using similar rationale Mexico will soon invade the Southwest United States claiming the majority speak espanol.
They have already invaded. Next comes the vote to join the Mexican Federation.
Oh sure.. NOW they seek a negotiated settlement.. AFTER beleaguered American taxpayers who can’t afford gasoline and can’t buy baby formula.. just sent 40 billion more to assist Ukraine’s “war effort.”
Good job, UNiparty TRAITORS! ☠️ 💉 🇨🇳
The only way Zelenskyy can stop Russia and call it a win is through negotiations. Why would Russia want to negotiate? They are winning.
The ukies met with the russians early, and the nazis arrested the lead ukie negotiator and murdered him.
We’ll see this time.
That is disputable.
Ukraine Nazi has tried their version of false flags more than once….and got caught.
Unfortunately, and no matter how much of the money he and his oligarchs and his DC handlers “grift” for themselves, Ukraine has no options but to accept Russia’s terms as presented. They will be entirely matter-of-fact: “you lost and you can’t win.” Russia doesn’t want the country itself.
Criminals blackmailing criminals
It’s TOO LATE for talks now. Those 2 phone calls that were finally excepted by Russian heads of state and told their American counterparts to ” GO Pound Sand” is but 1 tell.
A dozen or so EU countries opening accounts with Gazprom is a 2nd tell.
The bioweapon labs evidence that was not addressed by the UN security council is #3.
5 members of the BRICS and more members to come on board is #4.
A look at the yellow and gray map shows 3/4s of the world, would most likely back Russia on this topic is # 5.
Sorry but you poked the bear and President Putin will stop when he is ready to stop.
This clamoring for talks is the propaganda before the false flag event. The great satin empire of lies just got punched in the mouth and has no bite left.
What’s coming at us is gonna be pretty hard to swallow but it’s coming and I pray Treepers are ready.
Ya’ll have a blessed day!!
Like what? Civil war?
“The bioweapon labs evidence that was not addressed by the UN Security Council…”
When I last checked, the Russian Federation was a permanent member of the UN Security Council.
It was just plain careless of Putin to lose evidence of bio weapon labs in Ukraine when he could have submitted it as evidence justifying his invasion.
Ah…he did.
The preliminary reports should have been enough to begin thorough investigation.
Many videos out there translated —you should find and listen.
Many Treepers did….ah…months ago.
Time to “shake off the euphoria,” said the New York Times.
Guess this means the manic phase of U.S policy toward Russia and Ukraine has ended.
Can we put away our Ukrainian flags now? /sarc
My wife (zombie, dem) still won’t sleep with me unless I use the Ukrainian accent.
LOLOLOL
I don’t think the Russians are interested in all of Ukraine just the eastern and southern portions. i.e. where all the oil and gas and sea ports on the Black Sea are located.
When this limited operation began, Putin described its purpose and objectives exactly … and has stuck to them ever since.
Zelenskyy is gonna embezzle a large portion of those funds and seek asylum outside Ukraine eventually.
Everyone is going to “grift” their share of the loot … including those who appropriated it. 💰 This never was about Ukrainians.
Why didn’t he leave when the US offered to evacuate him?
@LeeCarolyn55
You are on a roll 👍🏻 👍🏻
Don’t know about you, but I couldn’t afford my share of the forty billion Biden stole from us.
How many divisions does Archbishop Vigano have?
Thanks for reminding me of one of the great lines in history, i.e., the immortal words of Pius XII’s reply to Stalin when he posed the same question, “You may tell my son Joseph he will meet my divisions in Heaven.”
It sounds like it will be a glorious reunion.
Propaganda has been so effective that yes, nazis are considered better than Putin and Russia, and thus worthy of supporting. The whole world jumped on that ship, uncritically.
Which shows us just how much control social media has over the world. They don’t even have to rig an election if they can change minds at the drop of a dime.
America is now broke, has next to no military equipment, and many soldiers are disabled or dead from the depop shot.
Hey sunny Californians – head on down to the coast and start waving your CCP welcome flags.
I’m hoping they re-institute the draft. Can you imagine the wokesters first day at boot camp?
Those videos I would pay to watch.
America can’t do it anymore: they don’t manufacture anything anymore. 🤷♂️
California has plenty of red blooded conservative patriots, thank you. Pound sand
The new monkey pox scamdemic will of course be geared up to cover the money flowing back into the Bidens, Clintons, obozo , piglosi churmer and the rinos like the turtle. Also, just in time for ballot harvesting . The dims are in full lying and cheating mode.
From time to time this site holds posts for moderation. At one time, to fend off some kind of abuser, they did it for almost every post – as Sundance publicly explained at the time.
“Just roll with it.” This site maintains its civility and does not censor. Unobtrusive moderation is part of that.
There was always a time for diplomacy, but first, the money! WTP are pretty sick and tired of sending these laundered funds back to our politicians.
How many people had to be displaced or killed? If we had real, principled leadership instead of a blithering, sadly demented sock puppet, this never would have happened!
And, who is praying for the Russian People?
Biden. Humiliated in Afghanistan. Humiliated in Ukraine. Soon to be humiliated in Taiwan.
The left says:
Tax the Rich!Tax the Politicians!There fixed it. Probably solved 90% of the world’s problems right there.
Though it will be more of bringing back the dollars to the People that produce stuff.
I am and have been.
I am praying especially for those in Donbas.
Seems like the uniparty is capitulating to the reality that the only way to keep the State Dept/CIA money laundering operation and their Zelensky action figure puppet intact is to fall back on the usual propaganda of Ukraine continues to win this fight/war even though the facts demonstrate Russia has thoroughly kicked and continues to kick Ukraine’s back end. However, since the uniparty and associates want to definitely clamp down the optics of a Russian victory celebration and minimize the outright embarrassment Russia has brought to focus on the globalist’s military war complex business strategy, it’s in the best interest to negotiate a Ukraine/Russian ceasefire/truce with an end goal of putting this conflict into the closet. That would allow the uniparty to refocus their domestic efforts on gain of function monkey business and an extension of their 2020 election fraud into the 2022 midterms.
Thanks for the link! Archbishop Vigano is a thoughtful, brilliant, courageous priest. He should have become Pope.
Anything would be an improvement.
I wonder how many $BILLION the ex-comedian makes off of after the Bidens, Clintons, Pelosi’s, Schumers, and over half of Congress get their cut?
Ukraine’s unconditional surrender is all that should be ”negotiated”.Sanctions shock and awe–zilch–proxy NATO army also no go–let’s try talking Russia out of their victory–I doubt it. Russia and Poland will split Ukraine is about where this will end. Zelensky and crew will either end like Ceaușescu or he will use his newly acquired British passport and move to London, where he will become a standup comic.
Russia WP likely not negotiate until it has Odessa. We led the Ukraine down he primrose path.
The facts on the ground show that Russia has gained almost all of the territory they were trying to achieve. The Ukrainians are getting crushed, and they’ve lost the ports and cities they were fighting hardest to defend.
The article seriously lacks credibility. Ukraine is not getting crushed. The reality is that each wave of Russian attacks upon the Donbas region is weaker than the one before.
This is because Russian battle losses are not being replaced. Therefore, Russia cannot put as many units into battle this week as they could the week before. Ukraine is facing similar but less severe constraints along certain stretches of the front.
It should be noted that Ukraine drove Russian forces out of Kharkiv and back across the border with Russia. This will allow Ukraine to strike at the open west flank of the Russian salient in Luhansk sometime soon. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians are positioning their artillery to turn Izyum into a fire trap for Russian mechanized forces.
Since the defeat of the Russian attempt to capture Kiev – every week has seen a rising level of tactical ineptitude that now seems to be the hallmark of Russian forces. The Russians become less competent by the day as Ukraine grows more capable. This pattern continues as evidenced by the disastrous attempt of Russian armor to cross the Donets River at Bihilorovka.
No doubt the Ukrainians are taking some serious casualties. But the idea that they are “being crushed” is just ludicrous.
You’re drinking the wrong kool-aid, Major. Russia never intended nor intends to “capture Kiev.” They only needed to bottle-up military forces there. Which they did.
Ukraine could no more beat Russia than Mexico could beat us.
Well, Mike, I may have had a sip of Kool-Ade……but you are grasping at straws.
You can credit the Russians with all the “success” in the world if you want to……..but it still flies in the face of actual results on the ground. I base my view on what I am seeing every single day – which is Ukraine inflicting loss after loss upon Russian combat forces.
The fact of the matter is that Russia incurred close to 10,000 casualties trying to capture Kiev (a place you claim they didn’t intend to capture). They were defeated and pulled their troops out. The Russians managed to capture Mykolaiv. But they were quickly defeated there, too, and had to pull their troops out. Kharkiv – same story. Defeat followed by withdrawal. Russia is not winning the fight against Ukraine. It is simply destroying Ukrainian towns and cities and inflicting unconscionable casualties upon non-combatants.
Your final comment about Mexico is too cute by half. Need I remind you that the North Vietnamese Army managed to avoid destruction by the United States military and lived to conquer South Vietnam. They later successfully defeated an invasion of their territory by Communist China’s Peoples’ Revolutionary Army. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict is not something to be smug about.
With respect to Vietnam the US military used conventional warfare tactics and was eventually defeated by political decisions overriding military decisions. Of course the MSM did there best to insure the defeat. If Arc Light and similar strategies, in addition to the defeat of the NVA, etc., during the Tet Offensive, had been carried out, the North would have been defeated. Ref Gen. Giap’s book.
I stated the only fact that matters – the NVA survived to prevail over the Republic of Vietnam. Why or how that happened is not relevant in this forum. The reference to Vietnam serves as a reminder of how wrong it is to calculate “combat power” solely in terms of material resources and numerical manpower.
The greatest element of combat power is the incalculable morale and fighting spirit of the combatant. The United States neglected this element of power and allowed the enemy to gain an edge in discipline and revolutionary spirit. That is Putin’s great mistake also – betting that the Ukrainians would give up to Russian occupation forces without a fight.
Sorry but they only survived because of the politicians who tied the hands of the military when they themselves actually started the conflict. There’s a significant difference being surviving and winning. But then again you like to parse reality.
I can’t be responsible for your inability to grasp the obvious.
Aren’t you the same Mike Robinson who casually informed me that Ohio-class submarines had been stripped of their Neptune ABMs?
I didn’t think you could manufacture a more egregious lie but your most recent post suggests you intend to give it every effort.
Agree!
It would probably help if they would listen to Col MacGregor, Putin speeches.
His objectives have never been about capturing Kiev.
“It would probably help if they would listen to Col MacGregor…”
His forecast of Russian victory “in less than ten days” indicates he is no help to anyone.
Really. Very ironic because your sycophant fairly tale rhetoric.
Putin is the world’s leading war criminal.
MacGregor is Putin’s leading apologist.
Both are legends in their own minds.
So the CIA is now using woke Disney screenplay writers to construct attempted propaganda. FYI, Russia stated their objectives and they have not deviated from them and are achieving them. Every piece of your rhetoric and so-called proof is from the Democrat sycophant playbook. Just because you believe BS doesn’t make it true. Also, when the so-called victors (Zelensky and his Democrat/military industrial complex advocates) admit that the conflict/war cannot be won but want to pursue a truce/treaty is very telling regarding your nonsense.
Go refresh your depleted neurons about the geopolitics and ethnic demographic history regarding Ukraine and it’s creation before you make a complete idiot of yourself.
In addition, like we’re really seeing Russian body bags and prisoners. Nice try but absolute nonsensical projection on your part. Video game projections and fairytales appear to be your hoped for reality.
“In addition, like we’re really seeing Russian body bags and prisoners.”
Do you imagine this is something Putin would publish?!
So your sniffing the State Dept/CIA/military industrial complex glue tube. Maybe you need to put your comprehension hat on. The comment regarding Russian body bags and prisoners was referring to the complete lack of supportive evidence by Ukraine when considering theirs and their sycophant lemmings constant BS about how Ukraine is winning this conflict by driving the Russians back and inflicting heavy casualties.
The fact that you’re using Wikipedia as a reference source and other members of the MSM says that your so called factual rhetoric is total BS. But that’s the norm for sycophant idiots. Oh, FYI aside from video war game footage of Migs getting shot down, where’s the Ukrainian footage of the massive number Russian prisoners and dead soldiers that back up your rhetoric given the presence friendly news media? It doesn’t exist just like the nonsense you project as facts.
“It should be noted that Ukraine drove Russian forces out of Kharkiv and back across the border with Russia. This will allow Ukraine to strike at the open west flank of the Russian salient in Luhansk sometime soon.”
It is evident you know how to read a map. This an uncommon skill set here.
Persevere!
No, the only thing that’s evident is that both you sycophant suck ups are colorblind and can’t read a map and especially those over an interval of time.
It’s true! I am colorblind.
No, your just a plain sycophant lying rube. Time will confirm that and you’re running out of time.
In the beginning of this conflict I was paying attention, but not super close attention. After a couple of months I am sick of seeing Zelensky. I hope Putin finds the dirt on these politicians and releases it.
Are you serious?
Zelensky is a rock star while Putin has become a war criminal. If there were dirt on Zelensky – it would be out by now. Grow up, Kid!
“Putin has become a war criminal.”
Correction: Putin has been exposed as a war criminal. He did the same thing at Aleppo but the press didn’t show any interest.
And what of Zelensky and his Nazi troops killing Donbas citizens for the last 8years?
“And what of Zelensky and his Nazi troops killing Donbas citizens for the last 8years?”
Category error!
There are no “citizens of Donbas” because Donbas is not a sovereign state.
They are a breakaway oblast.
Notice how you deflected the question without acknowledging the truth about Zelensky and his “Nazi” troops. That’s the game you and the other two posters who definitely appear to be on the payroll to protect the State Dept/CIA money laundering operation work.
While Zelensky and his Nazi military killed 20k citizens in Donbas……which includes women and Children….
The media was silent. The world was silent.
That Putin…alone..has stood up for the people of Donbas….he has my respect.
I have no respect for Zelensky..and NO respect for a Nazi.
Period.
“That Putin…alone..has stood up for the people of Donbas…”
Because all the rest of the world saw through the transparent ruse of Russian aggrandizement and territorial annexation.
GypsySleaze…..Zelensky has only been president for three years. When he came into office – he acted immediately to reduce the hostilities along the separatist line-of-contact.
Up until then there had been sporadic combat in the Donbas between Russian soldiers disguised as “separatists” and Ukrainian defense forces. The Ukrainians are the ones who suffered the heavier casualties. Putin, the warmonger, over the last 18 months orchestrated the events that led up to his Special Military Operation. The fact that you are gullible enough to swallow Putin’s BS shows that P.T. Barnum was right…..there’s one born every minute!
One last thing: you should understand that there are nationalist groups within Ukraine just like there are in Germany, Great Britain, Pakistan, Sweden, or Turkey and every other country. Being a patriot is not the same as being a Nazi.
FJB FJB FJB and his Evil Crew!!!
That BBC report is certainly a stark contrast to the “botched invasion” and “brave Ukranian citizens destroying columns of tanks at will” narrative the US media has been selling for the past few months.
Zelensky is already talking about requiring 5 billion per month in addition to the 40+ billion gifted by our leaders.
Looks more and more like Zelensky is blackmailing world leaders and has some deep dark dirt on them….Ukraine was, after all, the world’s human trafficking and money laundering hub.
I hope someone else has all that dirt and exposes it, leaving clown actor Zelensky with nothing.
“Zelensky is already talking about requiring 5 billion per month in addition to the 40+ billion gifted by our leaders.”
Putin is spending $500 million daily in support of his shambolic war effort.
Let me help with the maths: $.5 billion x 30 = $15 billion/month.
Zelensky is a miser by comparison.
That money was paid by United States of America—TAXPAYERS.
More likely, it was borrowed from China.
Just read the Ukraine nazi army is planning to blow up a dam and kill whole communities. “Terrorists of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are blowing up the dam of the Uglegorsk thermal power plant near Svetlodarsk! – A lot of people can die.
So the militants are trying to slow down the advance of the troops of Russia and Donbass. Houses were damaged by a powerful explosion.
Dam rupture could kill many people in nearby communities.”

False flag. It is the Russians who are targeting civilian infrastructure.
I literally thought I was reading a Babylon Bee article for a half second.
Putin’s cosplay campaign to rid himself of nazis has descended into satire.
LOST
UKRAINE 🇺🇦
IS LOST
NEGOTIATE NOW SAVE UKRAINE FROM TOTAL DESTRUCTION
$40 Billion and we get peace and Ukrainian lives saved from slaughter.
It may be worth the ransom.
The story of the Siege of Stalingrad is instructive of the Russian thinking and strategy. And the Siege of Leningrad gives insight into Russian psyche. A very tough bunch of people.
“The story of the Siege of Stalingrad is instructive of the Russian thinking and strategy.”
The strategy then was to eat axle grease to avoid starving; today’s conscript army enjoys the luxury of beetroot, raw onions, boiled potatoes and whatever can be looted from the grocery stores of Russia’s allies in Donbas.
High fiber, low calorie.
Zelenskyy is not calling for a negotiated settlement, he is calling for a (temporary) ceasefire.
1. When Ukraine was driving Russia back from Kiev, Zelenskyy didn’t want a ceasefire.
2. When Ukraine was driving Russia back from Kharkiv, Zelenskyy didn’t want a ceasefire.
3. Now that a Ukrainian army is cut-off and under attack in Severodonetsk, Zelenskyy *needs* a temporary ceasefire before that army is forced to surrender.
You have offered a reasonable explanation of Zelensky’s motives. It is not at all unlikely that strenuous Russian efforts will result in territorial gains.
In making this offer, Zelensky looks like the good guy when his peace initiative is rejected. Then this furnishes him with additional leverage against NATO, who have been slow in releasing top-tier heavy weaponry.
Are you having a discussion with a sockpuppet, lad?
There’s no doubt that a cease-fire would bring a needed respite to both sides. It’s also a veiled threat to the West and NATO: deliver the big guns quickly or risk being on the outside when I sit down with Putin to negotiate.
I don’t believe that Russia wanted Kiev!!! Russia wants the eastern Russian speaking areas and the land bridge to Crimea! Kiev was a distraction and a way to bomb Ukraine’s supply lines. (Think like a military strategist!)
Came back here after a long absence to see if the Putin bots were still here. Looks like they are. Will check again in a couple of months. None of Putin’s actions are justified in any way. Those who think that this aggression is justified must be on his payroll.
You need to review some history since 1854 and facts, since 2014.
I’ve really missed you. I thought you were starring in a music video with your buddy.
