Standard disclaimer: I am not a “Putin Apologist” or “Russian Disinformation Agent.” I do not support Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, though I do recognize they had some justification. With that said, I’ve always considered Vladimir Putin and Russia to be enemies of the United States, and I can argue that contrary to some beliefs that he’s fighting the Liberal World Order, in reality he’s just doing what he thinks is best for Russia. If the WEF and others stand in his way, he will attack them as well, though not out of some righteous goal of ending globalism.
With that said, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is a charlatan. He’s a narcissist and a puppet of the World Economic Forum. He has had multiple opportunities to do what’s right for his people, but doing so would not achieve the goals of the Liberal World Order that controls him. And our own government, including people from both sides of the political aisle, are propping him up as the “Hero of Democracy.”
They’re not alone. Most other governments are doing the same thing. The totality of corporate media and Big Tech are playing their parts in the con job perfectly. As a result, millions of Americans support the war-prolonging aid being sent to Ukraine and the leader who is driving his nation into a full-blown humanitarian crisis.
Some will retort, “Zelensky didn’t invade Russia.” No, he didn’t. But he could have easily prevented the invasion by simply telling the truth. He was told long before the invasion that NATO would not allow Ukraine to join them, but he was also told not to reveal that their membership in the alliance was off the table.
As he told CNN:
“I requested them personally to say directly that we are going to accept you into NATO in a year or two or five, just say it directly and clearly, or just say no,” Zelensky said. “And the response was very clear, you’re not going to be a NATO member, but publicly, the doors will remain open,” he said. {CITATION)
The irony is he was making the case that if he had been allowed to join NATO, then Russia wouldn’t have invaded. The opposite is true as well. If he had announced that he had been rejected by NATO and would no longer pursue membership, Russia would have had one less reason to invade.
Are the American people finally seeing through the lies of the Democrats and NeoCons? Are more starting to recognize that this is a long con to prop up Zelensky and bilk the American people out of their tax dollars at a time when our own economy is failing? Are they happy that the Zelenskys are too busy with Vogue photoshoot to help their own struggling people?
Why did we send $54 billion to Ukraine, so Zelensky & his wife could pose for Vogue?

It’s a good question.
JD Heyes from Natural News highlighted the blacklist against Zelensky opponents in the media and politics. Noteworthy names on the list include Rand Paul, Tulsi Gabbard, and Glenn Greenwald who wrote about the list on Twitter:
Investigative Journalist Glenn Greenwald Reveals Truth About Ukraine’s Zelenskyy in Brutal Twitter Thread
There isn’t much that gets past investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald, an originalist truth-teller who doesn’t allow his personal liberal political and cultural views to stand in the way of accuracy and honesty.

And he showed that quality again in a recently posted Twitter thread that dropped some brutal truths about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the leader the West has fawned over, showered weapons and money on, and the country where Hunter and Joe Biden managed to make a fortune, according to reports.
“Before Russia’s invasion and since, Zelensky has abolished basic liberties: shuttered opposition media, outlawed parties, imprisoned dissidents. As Ukraine demands money and arms from the West, they now want to export this repression to our countries with McCarthyite blacklists,” Greenwald began, noting that he, along with other figures including former U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), have been banned from the country.

“You can see the full Ukrainian blacklist, obtained by @unherd. Beyond the individuals listed above, officially maligned are @JeffDSachs, @RandPaul, former Brazil President @LulaOficial, Col. Douglas MacGregor, Caleb Maupin, Marine LePen and many others,” he continued — the theme being that most of them are critics of Kyiv.

“It takes extreme audacity for Zelansky and his henchmen to go around the world demanding other nations send massive amounts of weapons and money to him, then try to suppress dissent in our countries by smearing journalists and citizens who question,” Greenwald continued in a tweet containing a screenshot of his full statement to alternative media outlet Unherd.

Greenwald went on to explain that he and the others ‘blacklisted’ by Ukraine were being classified by Zelenskyy’s government as “Russian propagandists” — a familiar smear of anyone who dares to point out the obvious: Before the war, Ukraine wasn’t the bastion of fairness, equality and democracy it is now being made out to be by Western globalists whose job it is to ‘pick a side’ in such conflicts.
For her part, Gabbard — who has been critical of the United States’ and NATO’s rank picking of sides in this war — says that she sees parallels between Russian authoritarianism and a growing authoritarianism on the American left.
“Tulsi, it is striking when you see Putin propaganda and you line it up against Biden propaganda,” Fox News host Jesse Watters said as he interviewed her in March. “Do you think that we’re at risk of kind of moving in that direction right now?”
Agreeing that under the left and Joe Biden the U.S. is definitely “moving in that direction,” she went on to claim, correctly (unlike the Poynter Institute ‘fact check’ claimed), that U.S. leaders and media are “afraid of even a single voice coming out as challenging the power elite.”
“This is why we’re seeing not only still most of the mainstream media very vigorously defending and pushing the Biden propaganda … It’s not enough that they also have Google and Big Tech basically working for them and with them to control what information we see and what information we don’t see,” she said.
“This is what’s so dangerous about the place that we’re in right now as a country, where this idea, this principle, this foundation of freedom of speech, freedom of expression is directly under threat and under attack. And you’re right, it’s not so different. What’s happening here is not so different from what we’re seeing happening in Russia, where you’ve got state TV and controlled messaging across the board. This is where we’re at,” she added.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
By repeatedly violating the Minsk Accords for eight years and pretending that Ukraine would join NATO, the “West” left Putin with little choice but to do what he has done. The globalists wanted this war, and they want it to continue, no matter how many innocent Ukrainians are killed and how much pf the country is destroyed. Zelinsky is a traitor to his country and his people. This is all so obvious, yet the distracted and ignorant masses fall for it just like they fell for “Russian collusion,” the stolen presidential election, etc. When the people are so ignorant and misinformed and inattentive to world events, what hope is there for good government or getting good people in government?
Thank you Dave for your cliff notes summary of the Ukrainian (and world!) problem. So well put. How can we know what the truth is when all we are fed is propaganda?
The truth usually rests in the arms of common sense and logic. Something sorely missing from the planet these days. Incidentally There has been fighting on the Ukraine Russia border for sometime before the Russian invasion. Almost almost provoked by the Ukraine so it’s actually incorrect to say that the Ukraine didn’t start the fighting first.
Dave you had me on board until you tried to dismiss the stolen election. Only a moron at this point would not see that the election fraud was unprecedented. If you haven’t seen 2000 mules then you can’t speak with authority. If you’ve seen it and don’t believe the election was stolen and that Joe Biden actually got more votes than Obama coupled with tens of thousands of more people voting than live in the Country you are simply special. Forrest Gump special.
You have swallowed Putin’s blue pills. He had no reason to invade. He knew Ukraine nato membership was a dead horse. It was an ecuse, not a reason.
finally a voice of reason. Russia is not our enemy and the Ukraine is not our friend. That’s how I see it. I don’t agree with Putin on a lot of issues but it’s starting to look like Russia will have more freedoms than the US in the not so distant future.
I don’t know why, but I’m still surprised and dismayed at how many on the Right are painting Zelensky as some heroic figure. Is there a large portion of the Right who simply can’t read?
