We had a great opportunity to change the world by befriending Russia.

Instead, we kept them as enemies and sold out to China.

We became pretty friendly with Gorbachev's and Yeltsins Russia, to be fair. Both were very much reformists.

Putin hated Gorbachev and soured on Yeltsin, but I don't think it was until Chechen wars that the tide turned back.

it's crazy 30 years ago...

Russian President speaks to congress...speaking about new beginnings

and today we have two woman, despised by many Americans, holding up a Flag of a Corrupt Ukraine and kissing Zelensky on the cheek like some hero.

while Pelosi a few years earlier tore up Trump's State of the Union speech..

It's really symbolic of the times we're living...

we've been compromised from within

Russia is much more a natural ally than China.

And now we've pushed them into an alliance with China and others, at our expense.

The Biden Administration is the worst in our nation's history.

The left was pissed bc it’s ideological Mecca was defeated, the Rs who ran the MIC (cough Bushes) were pissed that they no longer had a bad guy. So the Left finally completed its infiltration of the MIC that had previously been limited to the state department by making a deal with the Bushes, and here we are. The worst elements of both political parties entirely control our foreign policy - whether economic or military

Globalism is poison.

Even the Soviets weren’t proud to be Russian
