This weekend marks the second anniversary of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, a nation that Biden and many others in Washington have used to launder bribes for decades.

Sure, end it. But with the proviso that Russia gets to keep NOTHING it has stolen. And that it retreat back to the 1991 borders. My sympathies lie with the regular people who have had their lives and homes destroyed.

I loved the poll at the end: where will our next forever war be? I can't say, but our next 'Cold War' will definitely be in Antarctica. And 1, from the same typist that typed Tristan Jistice.

If it ends now the Russian thugs win. NO....keep funding Ukraine and give them the very best possible weapons and LOTS OF THEM to defeat the evil invaders of Putin. They ask for NO foreign troops, only the tools to defend themselves. I find that very refreshing. Vietnam was unwilling to fight much for their own country. Same for so many Afghanis, and so many Iraqis. Ukrainians are doing all the fighting and dying and they ask for NO US blood, only weapons. I support them fully. Russia under Putin is evil.

If I had a "conservative membership card," I'd be burning it right now. Surber is Exhibit A for Biden Derangement Syndrome (BDS) and the new American Isolationism. Yes, neocons bad, Nikki Haley bad, but what part of Russian imperialism still needs explaining? Is everyone with BDS a zoomer who isn't aware of world history since1917?

If it's “foreigners and stateless persons" Zelensky wants, we have tons we can send him and the only cost to us would be transporting them over there.

Ukraine is not a NATO country. The UN's purpose is to maintain world peace. Shouldn't all countries be opposed to Russian aggression against another country? Why isn't the UN leading a coalition of the willing? Oh, US foreign aid = Congress/Senate grift. Now it makes sense.

Well the recruiting levels apparently have fallen drastically for the ground pounder elements of the US Armed Forces, as Americans with a brain in their head are not joining up to be cannon fodder for Biden in Taiwan or Ukraine. There have been reports that Biden and the Democrats want to load up those US ground pounder units with illegal aliens, in turn for granting them immediate US citizenship and of course US voting rights. The historic problem with that is if the balloon actually goes up with those units scheduled to be deployed, a big percentage of Biden’s so-called “New American” ground pounders will instead return to their home countries until the fighting stops, and then return to the USA with their Biden citizenship grants as their “key” to get back into the USA. I know a little about ground pounding as I have spent over a year humping the Yama's along the DMZ in South Korea, and the entire year of 1968 on the ground in Vietnam. Since it is evident that Biden and the globalist leftist Democrats will do anything they can to destroy the USA as it exists today, why not destroy the ground pounding units of the US Armed Forces first?

Since the average age of Ukraine soldiers is 42, I daresay the people of Ukraine, themselves, want this war to be ended. Their country is destroyed and a generation of men are no more. End it.

Netanyahu said, “I’ve set three war goals. The first is to release the hostages. The second is to destroy Hamas. And the third is to ensure that Gaza does not pose a threat to Israel in the future. And obviously, the three are intertwined. They, they’re achieved, basically by our very effective and often heroic military operation. And also by tough negotiations, we’re combining the two and I hope it- it yields a result, but understand that unless we have total victory, we can’t have peace. We can’t leave Hamas in place.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has called on Judge Scott McAfee to disallow as evidence cellphone records submitted by Trump lawyers suggesting she and special prosecutor Nathan Wade may have lied about when their romantic relationship began. Ms. Willis’s objection to the new evidence, which Trump attorneys say adds weight to their argument she hired her then-boyfriend for mutual financial gain in a corrupt bargain and should be disqualified, came in a Feb. 23 court filing. Former President Donald Trump’s attorneys, Steve Sadow and Jennifer Little, filed a court affidavit on Friday from a private investigator hired to obtain Mr. Wade’s and Ms. Willis’s text and voice call history.

The New York Times reports that the entire corruption case against the Biden family in the U.S. House of Representatives was dealt “a stinging setback” after special counsel David Weiss obtained this indictment against a key “whistleblower” for lying about the Bidens. The indictment alleges that Russians used this informant, who also worked for the FBI, feeding him disinformation about the Bidens supposedly accepting large payments as bribes. It is important to remember, however, that this indictment is merely an allegation. We should view it within the context of many previous allegations that, like this indictment, align with the joint government/media operation to get Trump.

PANAMA CITY—The former director of Panama’s border patrol told The Epoch Times that the United Nations’ migration agenda is behind the chaos at the U.S. southern border and that U.N. partners are making things worse instead of better. Oriel Ortega, now a security and defense consultant to Panamanian President Laurentino Cortizo, said during a Feb. 22 interview that he saw a jump in migration in 2016, at the same time that more nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) moved into Panama. That increase corresponded with the U.N.’s Global Compact for Safe, Orderly, and Regular Migration meeting in 2016. Two years later, 152 nations—including Panama—voted in favor of the compact

In a totalitarian government, everyone is a Kleenex. Once you serve your purpose, you are disposable. Oh, the ruler may keep you around for a while, but sooner or later, everyone gets thrown away. Democrats are showing their supporters just how disposable they are. In recent weeks, Biden has betrayed black people, women and others. Let’s start with black people who provide one-fourth of the votes Democrats receive. That’s a lot of votes and a lot of clout. For decades, Democrats took them for granted but about 20 years ago, Democrats adopted a DEI strategy that has led to a surge of black mayors across the country and of course, Barack Obama.

Anchor Kristen Welker said, “There are some pretty stark numbers you are facing. Seventy-six percent of voters say they have real concerns about President Biden’s ability to serve a second term. Do you think it is responsible for Democrats to put him at the top of the ticket given these concerns?” Newsom said, “I mean, what he’s done in three years, it’s been a masterclass.

It doesn’t work. So, we have to reduce emissions from the food system.” What a dilemma. If we feed people, we will continue to warm the planet. If we continue to warm the planet, billions will die in 100 years from global warming because of the food we are eating now.
