excellent example; belgians are silly people that dont want to be dutch or french so they can have their own little country while continuing to speak dutch and french lol

I remember when sanctions against Russia were young. “omg omg omg they’re kicking Russia off SWIFT omg omg omg”. I wondered along with hundreds of millions of others how Russia could possibly survive this. They didn’t even flinch. Just nothing. Today, they kicked SWIFT out of Russia, permanently. Sanctions have done nothing. I don’t understand it, but that’s our reality.

The next question is why did she kill him? Was it politically motivated or personal? It appears to be politically motivated but he was a blogger so did he have to die because of his words? Maybe it was retaliation for Russia detaining the journalist.

Disturbing but not surprising. Libya should join soon.

If your point is that Israel is trying to steal what remains of Palestinian lands and assets, you’ll get no argument from me.

You’re such a master mind reader. No, I’m not saying that at all. I’m saying that Russia, against their better judgement, is going to up against Israel and lose, badly.

Tucker is going to interview Czar Vladimir. I agree with this. Putin is a pig and a thug, but let’s hear what he has to say.

I am watching the Putin interview. Tucker is not challenging him on anything. This is a Putin speech. Still, it is fascinating to hear the other side. It is not without merit.

It was a history lesson for American citizens. A reminder. Putin makes clear everything that’s happening with the Ukraine war is because of the Obama administration. Tucker didn’t need to challenge him. Tucker allowed him to make his point and imo, he did that. Judging from Tucker’s weird facial expressions, he was, on occasion, offended by Putin’s boldness but he didn’t push back much, I think, because he knows it’s true.

Michele, I watched the entire interview. He didn’t make any such ridiculous claim. He did blame Clinton for not allowing Russia into NATO.

He never called Obama by name but are you saying he didn’t mention the U.S. weaponizing the 2014 CIA coup in Ukraine? I think he made several remarks about it.

He did, no question. He also went on about how Clinton started it, and Bush was instrumental in it, and that Trump and Biden ended it by allowing Ukraine to ignore the Minsk accord. Your statement is simply totally wrong that “Putin makes clear everything that’s happening with the Ukraine war is because of the Obama administration”.’

Bojo hates the Tucker interview. That makes me think it has merit.
