WHAT YEAR IS THIS???

We are in bed with the most corrupt government on Earth. We have a sitting POTUS that got elected, with a crackhead son sitting on a Ukrainian O&G company board making $50K+/month with zero education or experience in that field.

I've lost count of the billions of dollars in taxpayer money we have sent to that country in the last two years. Meanwhile, there are still American citizens who still defend this bullshite, the President and Congress that allows this shite to go on.

MAGA as frick 2024!!!

Ukraine is the most corrupt country in the world. That’s why our government loves them.

Yep, Libertarians love free trade even when it fricks over American workers = Globalism

Open Border = Globalism

Like I said, Libertarians love Globalism.


Nice try. Show me one Libertarian that was in favor of the NAFTA agreements and the TPP. Show me one.

If you look at the details of these agreements, there were sub-agreements such as
quote:

Before sending it to the United States Senate, Clinton added two side agreements, the North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation (NAALC) and the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC), to protect workers and the environment, and to also allay the concerns of many House members.
(from the globalist Wikipedia page even).

Protect the workers? Make Americans adhere to sweatshop and underage worker laws that Mexico and China don't have to.

Protect the environment? Same as above. This "Libertarians = globalists" nonsense is a highly delusional take. Do better.

If you want to view TPP and NAFTA as something that benefited the USA, you may as well view the Patriot Act as something that benefitted Patriots.

And here's another Globalist POS: John McCain in his influence on the Missing Service Personnel Act. Sounds like a good plan until you look at the bullcrap he pulled. Not Libertarian related, but you should get the gist of this phony labelling crap by now.

McCain was a War Criminal

quote:

McCain was also instrumental in amending the Missing Service Personnel Act, which had been strengthened in 1995 by POW advocates to include criminal penalties, saying: “Any government official who knowingly and willfully withholds from the file of a missing person any information relating to the disappearance or whereabouts and status of a missing person shall be fined as provided in Title 18 or imprisoned not more than one year or both.” A year later, in a closed House-Senate conference on an unrelated military bill, McCain, at the behest of the Pentagon, attached a crippling amendment to the act, stripping out its only enforcement teeth, the criminal penalties, and reducing the obligations of commanders in the field to speedily search for missing men and to report the incidents to the Pentagon.

About the relaxation of POW/MIA obligations on commanders in the field, a public McCain memo said: “This transfers the bureaucracy involved out of the [battle] field to Washington.” He wrote that the original legislation, if left intact, “would accomplish nothing but create new jobs for lawyers and turn military commanders into clerks.”

McCain argued that keeping the criminal penalties would have made it impossible for the Pentagon to find staffers willing to work on POW/MIA matters. That’s an odd argument to make. Were staffers only “willing to work” if they were allowed to conceal POW records? By eviscerating the law, McCain gave his stamp of approval to the government policy of debunking the existence of live POWs.

McCain has insisted again and again that all the evidence—documents, witnesses, satellite photos, two Pentagon chiefs’ sworn testimony, aborted rescue missions, ransom offers apparently scorned—has been woven together by unscrupulous deceivers to create an insidious and unpatriotic myth. He calls it the “bizarre rantings of the MIA hobbyists.” He has regularly vilified those who keep trying to pry out classified documents as “hoaxers,” charlatans,” “conspiracy theorists” and “dime-store Rambos.”


So stop with the guilt by association. Globalists make trade policies with cute names that people can get behind, but Libertarians aren't as stupid as what you assert.

Oh, I'm not Libertarian, necessarily. But your stupid projection should be called out.

At this point, if you're still a Z Bro., you're wearing blinders and have lost your ability to realistically assess the situation.

It never ceases to amaze me how some people can lament the MSM as spouting propaganda for the WEF/LWO, yet believe everything it says about the war. SMH.

You're too late. Imagine that Ukraine rooting out corruption. Meanwhile the boost to the Russian economy is that the richest man in the world, per Elon Musk, gets a cut of the huge expansion of its defense spending.
