At least they are making an accounting of themselves.

I have not seen or read in very many instances someone proclaiming that Russia would not attack and overrun the Ukraine. I think the confusion lies with not grasping the concept that all of this has happened because of Biden. Some want to start a World War because our President and the Democrat Party are a pack of dumbasses.

Not me. I share Putin's view of our President. He's a forking moron and so is everyone around him. Putin is a bad guy. Of course he's going to do something while Biden is in office. If those are his intentions then why wouldn't he?

In my opinion if you voted for Joe Biden you are responsible for what is currently happening in Ukraine.

Taiwan will be next. The United States will again do nothing. The fantasy world that many of us have lived in over the last 30 years... where our politicians have embraced globalization and sold out the American people to our enemies. That's the real problem here. Going to Ukraine and trying to stop Putin does absolutely ZERO to reverse any of that. That will make this country weaker. Reality dictates... we don't even have that option from an economic standpoint. We have record high inflation that's as real as it gets. Wars mean printing more money. 20 years we have printed money and thrown money all over the globe in the name of a War on Terror. Which we lost BTW along with 80 Billion in military hardware. That happened. And here we are. We couldn't beat the Taliban. If anyone thinks we are going to beat Russia and China (who absolutely will join together) in a military conflict that's plain stupid.

John Kerry is worried about how this conflict in Ukraine is going to impact "Green Energy". Green Energy is a European Ideology that our political class has embraced. Our political elite love the Europeans and their "Progressive" ideas and are trying to force the United States to follow. These are the same Europeans who are about to get hammered by Putin if they try to stop him because they are dependent on their enemy for oil. Just like we are dependent on Russia ourselves for oil but what nobody is talking about is our dependence on CHINA. For everything from prescription drugs... down to the plastic utensils in our burger sacks which we just throw in the trash.

Say it like Trump.... "CHI NUH"

It is nothing but Dumbassery at it's finest hour. Stupid beyond belief. The United States looks stupid. Europe looks stupid. The rest of the world sees it. They see who is really at the top on the world stage and that Communism is once again on the rise.

They play Chess. We play Checkers. We lose. Simple as that. And at this point no American citizen should shed 1 drop of blood because our politicians are corrupt and selling us out..

Agreed. Some people need to study the long term fallout of just one nuke.

Indeed - IN ALL SERIOUSNESS if I ran this site those two would be gone.

Half the people that voted for him are dead and have been for years.

I was referring to all the people all over Aldeer and the entire country saying Biden Admins warnings about a impending Russian invasion were pure made up propaganda to detract from his domestic failure. THEY WERE WRONG and stupid.

Obviously, Putin is taking advantage of Biden’s weakness and incompetency.
And yes, all the Biden voters are responsible for the Russian invasion as well as the complete and total disaster on the domestic side.

I will say it again: SHAME on all the people who did what I refer to above.

What do you mean shame? The Biden administration is simply just trying to make themselves look good. Believing them about a pending Russia invasion does absolutely nothing to prevent it, nor does Biden’s “sanctions.” You don’t tell an active shooter that he’s going to get in trouble and expect him to stop shooting people, you kill him. Nothing will make Russia stop other than shear force, and that’s not our job.

What goatkiller said. We been digging ourselves a hole the last few years . Trump was just a minor roadblock to these people around the world that hate us. So much evil in the world nowadays. God is watching an i don t see the world standing much longer .

Think the mirror is similar to the Sun, bs "news" source. Think they have magazines at the checkout section of grocery stores.

EXACTLY.

We have no leadership at all

My first point was crystal clear — and you are guilty of the same bs in your #2.

Look, there is an entire gigantic military and intelligence bureaucracy that isn’t always bad or wrong — and people were dismissing the obvious impending Russian invasion as if it was completely made up by the Biden Admin “to look good” and to “ detract….” — which was stupid.

I simply have the guts to call out my fellow conservatives on it.
Including Aldeer members.
Truth hurts.
It wounds pride.

Instead of trying to rationalize away the way millions of conservatives were behaving and writing about the Biden Admin warnings (that originate with the good people in the federal government) people who were guilty of that immaturity and MISPLACED PARTISANSHIP should be ashamed. THEY WERE WRONG.

*******

The real just criticism on Biden Admin ( and the Western Alliance) is that they failed to just come out and tell Putin that they agree to Ukraine’s neutrality in exchange for certain things from Putin (will elaborate later)(probably would not have made a difference) AND initiated massive sanctions over a month ago.

If Russia had been cut out of SWIFT 4-8 weeks ago we would not be watching a brutal invasion of Ukraine now.

Everyone agrees that there should not be American soldiers fighting in Ukraine.
That is not the question.

This is an existential CIVILIZATION issue.
If anyone thinks that Putin only wants to conquer and subjugate Ukraine they are mistaken and poorly informed. —>> Putin has been building and preparing for this day for 22 years. Just like Hitler built and prepared Germany for nearly ten years before unleashing his demented agenda.

*******

Listen to the history and foreign policy expert on this news vid. He makes a great analysis ( disregard his remark about Trump).

All wars are the same. Use our young men to make politicians richer and more powerful.

Putin is picking on a weaker nation. He’s not going to pick a fight with a major power. He values his life way too much.

I'm not nearly as worried about what Putin is doing as I am about what the U S. government is trying to distract us from. In my opinion the biggest threat to our freedom is our own government.

I'd also bet that Putin's ideal end game wouldn't look a lot different than our governments ideal end game. American ideals and exceptionalism lie with the citizens themselves and our own government is a bigger threat to those ideals and our way of life than any other country or theocracy.

WMhunter I bet you think Jan 6 was a travesty?

No I don’t.
It was just an act of stupidity by a few hundred people who got caught up in the moment while egged on by agents of the federal government.

Now, stop behaving like a little snot nosed child.

Stay on topic which is a major war against a country which did nothing against Russia where people are being slaughtered right and left. Where brave men and women are fighting for their land, homes and country and dying for it on a mass scale. You may think that is funny just because there is a weak demented Democrat president — but normal decent people do not.

Wrong it wasn't stupidity, it was people tired of all of the BS in DC. We also don't have the man in office that made those mean and disrespectful tweets that hurt you so much lol
