    1. We know it was orchestrated. Someone, I think on this blog, had a niece in Ukraine at the time. She was involved in the protests. The family was worried about her money situation, and she indicated they were getting paid. It is small stories like this that give important clues to the reality of the situation. I do think Ukraine is stuck in a proxy war between Russia and the West. If it does not stop soon, it will not end well for anyone, particularly, those in Ukraine.

          1. @Allen S

            False? It comes straight from the horses mouth, cheered on by your beloved CNN celebrating the pedo-globalist win in 2014.

          2. Yes it’s false.

            “And as a consequence, Russia’s economy was growing, they had to the opportunity to begin diversifying their economy, their relations across Europe and around the world were sound, they joined the WTO with assistance from us. And since Mr. Putin made this decision around Crimea and Ukraine — not because of some grand strategy, but essentially because he was caught off-balance by the protests in the Maidan and Yanukovych then fleeing after we had brokered a deal to transition power in Ukraine — since that time, this improvisation that he’s been doing has getting — has gotten him deeper and deeper into a situation that is a violation of international law, that violates the integrity, territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine, has isolated Russia diplomatically, has made Europe wary of doing business with Russia, has allowed the imposition of sanctions that are crippling Russia’s economy at a time when their oil revenues are dropping.”

            He was talking about the Feb 21 2014 deal. Not some backroom CIA deal.

            You’ve fallen for Russian propaganda.

      1. Pray tell how would you stop it? You would like Ukrainians to politely accept being subjected to geocide? Mass torture, mass kidnapping of children, deportations to gulag, all this ought to be accepted? So they can live on their knees as slaves to the most brutal, backward, corrupt (order of magnitude more than Ukraine) savage horde? Because Ukrainians do not get to have an agenda or even exist as a nation?

        1. @Colonialista

          Yea the only people supporting Ukrainian genocide are you here, and the Zelenski crime organization who is now extraditing Ukrainian refugees from all pedo-globalist supporting countries to die in a war they reject.

          On the other side of the fence, Russians appear to be doing just fine getting on with their lives under no obvious duress, making plenty of YouTube videos on a pleasant life in Russia. You should watch a few may change your bigoted perspective. Ukraine used to make plenty of the same sort of lifestyle video’s but you don’t readily find them anymore.

          The point is – It’s 2023, n*zi propaganda doesn’t work the same way it did in 1939 when people didn’t have access to the internet, and your attempted demonizing of average Russians is outright comical.

          1. Does your a$$hole ever get jealous for all the $hit that is coming out of your mouth?

            This war has confirmed every stereotype about russian bestial nature.

  1. Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham issued an emergency order temporarily suspending open and concealed carry laws in Albuquerque and throughout Bernalillo County for the next 30 days. I am sure she will try to extend the 30 day ban again and again if she is allowed to.

    Neither the Albuquerque Police, nor the Bernalillo County Sheriff will try to enforce this unconstitutional order.

    https://gunfreezone.net/bernalillo-county-sheriff-nm-has-issues-with-the-bill-of-rights-ban-by-the-governor/

    Sounds like the Governor’s NM State Police are the only police agency that has not rejected her ban (yet).

      1. That would be true. Although we do have the God given right to be free of government interference in our lives, we just have to exercise that right.

        1. VOWG is right. The only way to guarantee rights is to exercise them; we have been shown, all over the world, that paper constitutions and rights are worthless.

          1. Yes, and in Canada, we have been shown what happens to you if you exercise your rights — via the current prosecution of Lich and Barber. I beliieve the intention is to prevent ordinary citizens from ever again banding together and standing up for their rights.

  2. The other day I saw a pretty slick advertisement piece for the F-35. In all the highlights the producers seemed to allude to criticisms and rebuff them with idea that this fighter is great even when parts of it are broken.
    Personally I think the whole US industrial military complex is broken, corrupt, and compromised.

    https://www.lowellsun.com/2023/02/14/jack-yoest-time-to-admit-it-the-f-35-program-has-failed/

    My beef is with the whole “joint force” part of it. We’ve already tried to shove Turkey out and Sweden is making parts. That’s just stupid, evidenced by Sweden’s refusal to manufacture the ammunition (their contract) for the German Gepard 1A2 and Germany resorting (after months of wrangling) to make it internally (for Ukraine).

    1. Ho Lee F*** I don’t even know where to start with your stupid. Maybe at a simple point that Switzerland and Sweden are two different countries? You are confusing them you uneducated, imbecile.

      Trunkey got kicked out of F-35 program because they bought S-400. If you need to have it explained to you why US was not going to let them have the F-35 after that, then you’re an even bigger idiot (although it hardly seems possible).

      As for F-35, in general, watch this, it addresses all your misconceptions and delusions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeZ1DrnQl5c

      You literarily don’t know s**t about s**ting. You have less than casual knowledge of who do what and why, connect it in your limited head and cook up an instant theory.

      Do yourself a favor, buy a map and STFU.

      1. You’re not clever. You’re not winning and neither is loserland. You’re just an annoying buzzing insect with apparently a lot of free time.

        1. Well I am clever enough to know the difference between Sweden and Switzerland. Clearly this can’t be said about everyone here.

      2. Lower Colon, you are becoming very tiresome with your constant, boring and senseless prattle. Do be a good little chap and bog off.

        1. Sorry if my posting is causing your panties to bunch up. Not. Perhaps you should visit a safe space and hug a Barbie doll until you feel better?

          1. I’m sorry… (.) post’s may not meet your standards, but is all that vitriol truly necessary? You were right to point out the apparent ignorance of not knowing the difference between Sweden and Switzerland, but did you have to do it with such aggressive language? That doesn’t make your point any more right, in fact, it just reflects more on your character flaws than it does on the person you are attacking.
            With very few exceptions, I try to show at least a little respect for other people’s opinions, even if, as you say, they don’t meet your level of intelligence.

            Heck… I’ll even listen to Allan S. to hear what he has to say from time to time, and I will, (and I have) called him out on his… well, you know…

            But I try not to go on a bender like you just did, and if I ever do, I hope someone calls me out on it.
            As for causing my “panties to bunch up”… Heck… I’ve heard worse… MUCH worse, hurled in my direction. There is a difference between exercising judgement, and discernment. I don’t know… Maybe it’s just me, but I prefer a different tack.

      3. Hey, that’s the video I was referring to. I see that I transposed Sweden with Switzerland. It was indeed an error, but given this classic ad hominem response I wouldn’t change it.
        Now an interesting point is that Russia sold the S-400 to Turkey, a “NATO country”. One would think they would be concerned about offering a cutting edge competing technology for sale to NATO. F-35s have already encountered difficulties recognizing the S-300 system in Kaliningrad and no doubt the S-400 will be better. As to the rest of it, your projecting, and that’s sad. 🙁

        1. So you really have no point to add apart for some “one would think…” and that’s it? Oh wait there is absurd nonsense about F-35s near Kralovec. Can’t say I expected more. The video addresses all the standard complains about F-35 that are also mentioned in the pitiful articles you linked. And the video is not an advertisement but analysis by someone who knows what is known and what he is talking about.

      4. ” you uneducated, imbecile.” “You literarily don’t know s**t about s**ting.”
        The tone of your post is offensive. I think you need to pay more attention to how you express yourself. Otherwise, people will simply ignore your posts.

        1. He deserved every bit of it and more. He is shoveling nonsensical propaganda disguised as concern. He does so consciously. Every time he tried to make a point anywhere near specific he got everything wrong. Take this jewel for example:

          “F-35s have already encountered difficulties recognizing the S-300 system in Kaliningrad”

          What is that supposed to mean? What do you get out of this statement? Is he suggesting F-35 were flying ELINT missions over Kaliningrad and did not pick emissions for the S-300 radar? Were they flying photo recon and mistook the S-300 battery for something? Neither happened of course. Were they near the battery and did not recognize they were being detected or targeted? Can mean anything and all of it is bullshit. He is purposefully being vogue and distortive as a way out. What S-300 version we are talking about? What missile in the S-300 battery? What radar? Russians practically invented multi layered air defenses. There is plenty to choose and being vogue suits him as it provides cover.

          “and no doubt the S-400 will be better. ”

          Because it has a bigger number? S-400 is not a replacement for S-300. S-350 is effectively, maybe a replacement for S-300. The whole point of his posting is to make himself sound as if he knew things, throw in easily digestible anti corruption military industrial complex rhetoric and then sow doubt. And at the end of all those convoluted arguments you always end up with anti western for pro russia agenda. FETE.

          1. No it was to pretend to be in the know while spreading propaganda. That is why I curb stomped him.

          2. @Colonialista – “That is why I curb stomped him.”

            Like that Nazi guy did in the movie American History X.

          3. Yeah and he was right to do it. The pathological part about that film, was the portrayal as evil, of a man who exacted justified punishment on a thug that was robbing him. God and evil are clearly concepts that are foreign to you. I am sure you believe the Potato’s persecution and prosecution of Peter Khill who defended himself and his property was fair too.

          4. LOL – your just another low rent Nazi sympathizer obviously not intelligent enough to get how most people here view your bile, but please keep going, you undermine yourself and your “cause” with every post.

          5. Well it is not surprising that you sympathize with thieves and robbers on a micro scale if you sympathize with russians on the macro scale. Both ought to be curb stomped.

          6. Yea yea the internet tough guy thing. If you were tough you’d be off in Ukraine backing up your mouth, but of course your not, your here playacting every day, all day.

    2. It amazes me that no country in NATO seems capable of even making mmunition; I would have thought, for strategic reasons, this is an essential requirement for national defence.

      1. “…no country in NATO…”

        LOL. Plenty of them are producing ammo. You’re just repeating out of context bullshit.

    3. Seems like procurement issues rather than issues with the actual plane. Turkey found themselves on the outside looking in after buying the S400 system.

  3. colonoscopy defines stupid!
    He is a wha wha soi boi with no clue, on anything, wrong 100% of the time!

    1. Hmmm….I thought that honor had already been bestowed on the incredibly emotional, varied, nuanced, and sophisticated art form known as Jazz.
      Blues could be in there too.
      But….she was trying to look hip (and failing miserably).
      Ignoring history and heritage and True Accomplishments in the process. A Dem trait.
      Besides, who would you rather celebrate? John Coltrane and Miles Davis, who spent their lives chasing ever greater musical expression, or some gold-toothed sleaze who steps out of a Porsche to chant monotonously about the glories of all the vices that are destroying America?

    2. I’ve always thought hip-hop is shit. Reminds me of poetry I wrote in elementary school as an assignment. Shakespeare it ain’t.

        1. “Can’t spell crap without rap.”

          Not if you have ever listened to the godfather of rap Vanilla Ice and his musical legacy’s such as Eminem and Tom MacDonald who have defined the culture and dominated the genre!

    3. “Ultimate” art form. If she means they’ll never inflict another “art form” on the world that is good news.

    1. Huh, interesting.

      Regardless of the silly push by social justice warriors to narrate history as to where it all began, genetics have pretty mush established that modern racial makeups are a direct result of ancient admixing of ancestor homo-sapiens with various other homo species in various regions of the planet.
