About Ukraine

I find myself rapidly losing confidence in the media narrative I am hearing regarding Ukraine.

I hear no subtle, considered discussion. I only hear absolutes.

Putin Gunna

Biden Shoulda

War War War

Troops here

Jets there

Hey, smart ass media motherfuckers, how about some fact based analysis.

I have heard a couple of different interviews with Malcolm Nance this week. He's actually IN Ukraine this week. And, his description and analysis of this situation is quite a bit different that what the media has been reporting. For instance, they never point out that Ukraine has a very large, well-trained army of their own, and is not exactly a defenseless pushover. He also reminds us that Ukraine is a HUGE country, area-wise. Invading it wouldn't be an easy job, in general.

I recommend Bob Cesca's podcast with Malcolm last week, and his weekly appearance on Stephanie Miller's show. The Progressive Voices Network should have that segment up on their YouTube by now, or will soon.
