Compare right-wing complacency about Putin’s invasion of Ukraine with their hysteria about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada ordering the arrests of anti-vaccine mandate protesters who were blocking major thoroughfares. Carlson claims that “Canada canceled democracy,” while ignoring the actual, existential threat to democracy in Ukraine.
Yep the rights willing to give Canadian truckers asylum because of Trudea the True tyrannical leader

Is Ukraine a democracy? Someone here said it was a corrupt place, which is why it's poor despite having tremendous natural resources.

What scares Putin most is Ukraine succeeding in the fight against corruption and becoming an example of a successful former Soviet bloc member that is a democracy.
Ukraine is a battlefield of democracy against autocracy. The West either sides with Ukraine taking real, meaningful, effective actions now, or will eventually lose the rules-based order and safety for generations to come.

After Ingraham mentions that Russian forces are reportedly engaged in an amphibious attack, Trump says, "you told me about the amphibious attack by Americans. You shouldn't be saying that ... they should do that secretly."
"No. That was the Russians," Ingraham corrects him.
"You shouldn't be saying that, because you and everybody else shouldn't know about," Trump continued. "They should do that secretly, not be doing that through the great Laura Ingraham."
"No, those are the Russians," Ingraham replied.
"Oh, I thought you said that we were sending people in," Trump said. "That'll be next."
So who is dumber - Trump or the people who want him re-elected?

Again, Gallup does a poll before every presidential election, asking people if they feel better of after 4 years of the sitting POTUS.
When Gallup did the poll in 2020, Trump had the highest percentage ever, of people saying they were better off.
If that poll were held today, asking people if they're better off now after 13 months of Biden, what % would say yes?
100% of violent criminals would say yes, other than that, I'm not sure.
Not every flop has been Biden's fault, as covid wasn't Trumps fault and the subprime mortgage crisis wasn't Bush's fault. But fair or not, the president generally is held responsible for what happens on his watch.
It's been a horrible, disastrous 13 months for Biden. There's no arguing that.

I honestly don't know which statement you're referring to.
I know VP Harris said this recently.
"It's time for us to be doing what we have been doing. And the time is every day."
But that's not a problem, when the VP says that.
And Biden? Incoherent half the time.
An Alzheimers patient and an imbecile. I'm not surprised that Putin invaded Ukraine, what I can't figure, is why the Russkies haven't taken Alaska. What's stopping them?

But that's not a problem, when the VP says that. certainly far better than the statement Trump made.
And Biden? Incoherent half the time.He has a speach handicap. But you know that right and still feel it is ok to mock him. What a clown.

A lot of Republicans will need to replace their revenue streams after these new and necessary sanctions on Russia.

Another Genius conservative
Lauren Witzke, the Delaware GOP's candidate for Senate in 2020, has nothing but praise for Putin and "his Christian nationalist nation": "I identify more with Putin's Christian values than I do with Joe Biden."

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey was asked today how he feels about state lawmaker Wendy Rogers in light of her recent embrace of the white nationalist movement. Ducey told reporters it's better than having a Democrat in office.

she appears to be a kook for sure.
but i terms of the public policies she’d enact, the governor is correct.
a republican who is an azzhole, will advocate for better public policy, than a liberal democrat who is a nice person.
i’m sure you’ll let us know if she proposes a bill that’s racist.
Let us know if there’s a republican on the planning and zoning committee in Wichita Falls who illegally took the tags off her mattress, OK?

no. but arizona might have reservations about liberals who want wide open borders.
so there anything happening in the world at the moment Pete, which might be a reminder that having birders sufficiently secure to make it hard for people to sneak in, is kind of a good thing?

i spent 3 minutes googling her.
has she ever said or done anything that indicates she’s enact public policy that’s harmful to non whites?
she spoke at an america first conference, hosted by a guy nobody has ever heard of, who is supposedly a white suoremacist.
Biden nominated a woman to be in charge of civil
rights at the DOJ who said publicly and explicitly, that blacks are mentally and spiritually superior to whites.
you didnt complain about that. because as always, with all you guys, it’s only a problem when republicans do it.

GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Speaks At White Nationalist Conference
The congresswoman from Georgia spoke at the America First Political Action Conference, organized by white nationalist "groyper" leader Nick Fuentes.
The real story is that Republicans no longer fear openly attending a white supremacist conference. They know there will be no backlash from the GOP or their voters. That wouldn't have been true 20 years ago.

Pete -
Kristen Clarke, Bidens nominee to be the assistant attorney general at the civil rights division (of all places!!) at the DOJ, wrote this...
"Melanin endows Blacks with greater mental, physical and spiritual abilities"
An exact quote of what she wrote when she was a student at, naturally, Harvard.
