>It was little more than a decade ago when Mitt Romney, then the party’s standard-bearer, famously declared Russia to be “our number one geopolitical foe.” In the years since, the party has dramatically changed its tune on Russia. A CNN poll conducted last summer found that a staggering 71% of Republicans do not support additional aid to thwart Putin’s war on Ukraine.

I am belarusian and i feel so sorry for Ukraine. They
At first they are forced to yield huge nuclear weapons for Budapest memorandum. Now those who signed it are crying over 5% of USA military budget sent to the SAME SIZE army whilst also forbidding to hit ru territory “because we are afraid of nuclear escalation”. Also [stopping Poland from sending MIG-29s earlier](https://www.newsweek.com/2023/07/21/exclusive-cias-blind-spot-about-ukraine-war-1810355.html) because of “escalation”
Another country who signed Budapest memorandum (UK) decreased military budget from 2.16% GDP to 2.07% in 2023. [Zelensky advisor in interview was dissappointed that in april 2022 they could sign a peace on neutral term](https://www.kyivpost.com/post/24645)s with ru returning to the pre war borders, but he was convinced by Johnson “don’t worry we will back you, continue fighting” (14 Challengers sent, wow). And today after 2 years of (“we will stand with you as long as it takes”) allied help they can only dream about peace treaty they were able to get in April 2022
When they were invaded in 2014, Obama-Biden administration instead of sending army or at least all the weapons, imposed a ban on lethal aid support and was forcing Ukraine to Minsk agreements with russia. whilst allowing ru to build nord stream to remove the last obstacle before full scale invasion. Whilst Merkel full traded with ru, and imposed a ban on weapons supplies too, and later that [stupid old wench claimed Minsk agreements bought Ukraine time for preparations](https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2022/12/22/ffci-d22.html)? Prepare their ass to get raped? Which preparations?
Ukraine had all chances to win in 2022, but Biden’s administration position was “if Russia falls apart, nuclear weapons are spread” (just like Soviet Union), LoL.
EU help is ridicoulous. Small goddamn Greece who is blocking acquisition of Turkish shells for Ukraine and earning sh*tload from “shadow fleet” received 300 billions during pathetic economy crisis, whilst threatening to leave EU, lol. WHilst EU is struggling to sign 50 blns for 4 years aid bill.
If i was Ukrainian i’d 1) threaten with voluntary uniting armies 2) rush for nuclear weapons…..
P.S Obama, Merkel, Hollande, Biden should be in prison
It’s true. But our media companies are complicit. No one is making the NYT and Washington Post, for example, post content favorable to Russians. Just recently, the NYT absolutely buried the Simonov story on page 26 or something. While not directly related to the war, it’s just one of many examples of how news corporate news outlets cater to what the GQP wants, which is a Russian victory. Because they hate America.
shameful, it’s not just right-wing media like you find on fox news or the plethora of a.m. hate radio stations that pollute the american heartland, it’s mainstream media and international media too
they have all been infiltrated by bad actors
Its hard to compete with Joe Rogan, Lex Friedman, Russel Brands who spew pro russian nonsense with some of their guests for millions per episode.
They have learned from the cold war.
Fash support fash, whether russian or israeli or wherever.
This should be neither news nor surprising
Sadly that’s very true.
trump cult and US republican cult is a disaster to America. They’re traitors to America for sympathiszing and in ways supporting the enemy
It’s crazy how strong Russian propaganda is when it infiltrated the minds of US republicans
Right-wing = Fascism
Right wing AND alt-left.
Same problem – unfortunately reputable news sources are facing a losing battle at the moment, in a climate of weaponised social media and bots.
Sanction Putin, Trump, and the GOP.
I’m starting to hear the ” Nazis in Ukraine” and “money laundering” talk on the street again. I suspect we’ll be hearing more about the “bioweapons labs Ukraine” and “human trafficking” before November.
This is all down to one orange skinned manchild.
Trump and his supporters have backed themselves into a corner and rather than own up, are doubling down.
Has anyone seen Trump and Putin in the same room?
It went south hill since Russian money flooded the GOP, NRA and Trump Org.
It would be like FDR allowing the Nazis to transmit propaganda in the US during WW2? How is the west so slow in tackling, eradicating and outlawing Russian Propaganda.
