Me too. I was on here early when there was only one comment but I had to come back and add to the love, Mr Honorable Childers. I get so indigo blue to yellow sad here in mordor, and no more badass artists... so you inspire me in that thankless daddy way rare men like you do... and you wade in sausage goo all day and come back to cheer us up. I just cried out there in The Sun over it.

Thank you. I'm sobbing now because I feel like such a pussy I can't believe it but it's the truth.

Thanks for not being a pussy and every day showing how not to be one.

Just give me an hour or two and i can at least rev up to a good fake i'll trick myself back into making real.

Oh yeah, tell your wonderful wife thank you. You may be born again but it's just toooo obvious she's the underpinning of all that optimism you spray so freely.

Historical facts are readily available to confirm but many folks prefer to just adopt the Putin propaganda about bio labs from Ukraine sending infected birds and insects to Russia.

How you get birds and insects from a bio lab to fly only to Russia is of course nonsensical but this is the Qtardia state of things.

No, it's a factual-based disagreement outside the US borders.

The civilized world and Europe are united in stopping Putin's War. Here it's become rather shrill like a "Rumble" Qtardia scream of bio labs and "illegal war" but as a reference deleting Putin referenced in his ACTUAL illegal war/invasion of Ukraine.

Tucker is leading the charge with fabrications on that front. It's a sad display.

You can call it "true" but the truth is he's being intellectually dishonest.

Yes the glorious triumph of the Blue and Yellow is just around the corner, they just need lots more weapons oops more men oops more money oops more time. I know this because Sean Penn told me so, he was so prescient in his gushing about Hugo Chavez, what a seer. The triumphal march of Amerikan Demokracy worked so well in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, that today our (arms sales branch offices) State Department says they are too dangerous to even set foot in. But Saint Zelensky (who did not even speak Ukrainian when "elected" on a platform of peace with Russia) is such a paragon of demokracy that he jailed his opposition, shut down the press, and is now arresting priests. ("Joe Biden" is taking notes). Can you please choose a much larger rock to crawl back under this time, the people of the world have no interest in World War III for fun and profit, we just want 2019 back (peace and prosperity)

I do applaud him for sticking to it. Seriously. That's one of the best qualities of a Marine - Semper Fi. However, jarheads are a little short on critical thinking skills but that is a skillset not required to be a good Marine.

Expand full comment
Iron Horsey's avatar

Think the Marine here is making regular, factually-based comments and he's typically not met with anything other than, "I don't like these facts."

My experience studying the region and travel there acknowledges Benjamin's expertise to which he speaks. I've not seen him make errors in facts as so many others do probably because they prefer or choose to ignore facts and simply go the other way of demented Biden. (It is Biden and his Obamunist handlers who gave Putin the idea he could get away with his illegal invasion.)

Benjamin is not short on critical thinking but he's not seen much in the way of factual disagreement. Mostly, it's just name calling.

Based on his historical factual based comments, I think he's not incorrect in deeming certain responses as based on ignorance.

There's a wholesale adoption of feelings for politics these days and it's not exclusively on the Left. Mostly, it's Leftists but not exclusively. It's somewhat bizarre seeing people who claim to be moderates, centrists and conservatives adopting old commie talking points and blatant Putin propaganda.

All you have to is say you're an isolationist. You don't have to adopt a whole line of Qtardia noise or push fabrications and Putinoid crap with it. It's just sad.

Generally Jeff is good on:

Covid

Trump's "charges" (Which are BS, being an idiot is not illegal)

Mandates-he ironically skips a lot of foreign coverage, I don't know why. But he discusses the EU and WHO along with Europe but Skips Russia. Very ironic given that Russia is huge into the vaccine mandates and just approved the sputnik covid shot in under 3 months for children.

But very, very bad on:

Foreign policy-especially Ukraine and Nato.

If Trump was in office he would be singing a very different tune and how we have to support our allies and help our friends, the Ukrainians.

Iron Horsey's avatar

Can't speak to the 50-50 record perspective posed but it's largely driven by domestic and foreign policy. Outside the borders of the US, the takes get real bad, lack facts and have become jump the shark hysterical. Not in a good way either.

There are Americans who don't feel the incompetent, illegitimate administration controlling the oval means a reflexively negative to everything including foreign policy is the right path. It will only worsen things and give aid and comfort to the ChiCom-Russia-Mullahs Alliance which if you noticed is on the march.

Expand full comment
Politico Phil's avatar

Well of course as a Neocon you're only concern is "Outside the borders of the US" (which gives away your neocon agenda) and "foreign policy" as this is the only area the Neocon narrative is concerned with. The Neocons have been driving the bus on foreign policy in the USG since before I was born and they do not even care if the American people are ruled domestically by a Bolshevik tyranny as long as they are able to continue to bleed Americans dry to maintain their NWO USG hegemony. I understand that for you and Ben to even consider such a concept would cause unacceptable cognitive dissonance. So you construct your own little fantasy world of selected "facts" to justify your paradigm of "US foreign relations" and never trouble yourself with the ethical or moral implications.

Expand full comment
Politico Phil's avatar

Now that is the most concise statement I've seen. Obviously if Trump were in office that wouldn't have happened. Doesn't justify a thing though unless you subscribe to the Neocon narrative to never turn down a good opportunity for another war. If they want to come here to fight, we will quickly dispatch them to the afterlife. If they fuck up on the other side of the planet, that's not my problem nor should it be. Patriotic Nationalism semper fi. Empire and international hegemony based on empire building and foreign regime change is illegitimate and immoral and Constitutionally illegal yet the USG has been engaged in it since Abraham Lincoln waged unlimited warfare on half of America. Yet this is what the NeoCons who control the USG have been all about since before WWII. As a result, they have progressively destroyed America morally, ethically and financially. The great American middle class, the wonder and envy of the world, has been hollowed out economically and culturally. We now stand on the brink thanks to the NeoCons.

I can only pray that Trump gets back into office but, either way, the real war here in America has been engaged. Trump threw down the gauntlet in his interview with Tucker when he said the Number 1 problem, above China, above Ukraine and Russia, above everything else is the Deep State in America. This is the enemy the American people are now engaged in war with. International adversaries are nothing compared to this threat to the very existence of America. Those exterior threats are easily handled. We are that strong.

It is a Neocon deception that America cannot defend herself without controlling the rest of the world through NATO and the exportation of the wealth of the American people to buy the loyalty of foreign despots and governments. This is EXACTLY what the founding fathers including George Washington warned us about. But once the Neocons got in control of the USG they would rather submit to a Bolshevik coup than truly protect the interests of the American people. And that's the BOTTOM line.

Expand full comment
Politico Phil's avatar

I will say this. If all the Neo-Conservatives in the USG establishment and in Congress had opposed the Bolshevik takeover of the USG, the Bolshevik coup would never have succeeded! And that's excluding the Neo-Conservatives in the Democratic Party that aligned themselves with the Marxist revolution. Neo-Conservatives have failed America on every front and have indeed aligned themselves with the enemy. This is why we are in the war we are in for our very existence as Americans.
