  1. Now is the time to reach out to the Russian soldiers telling them Putins War is a scam by Putin for power. There are no nazis, there are no Ukrainians declaring war on Russia and there is no reason to die! The Ukrainians are their brothers & sisters who want peace. The Russian soldiers themselves could end the war by flying white flags into Ukraine and putting down their arms. They could be sharing vodka instead of trading bullets and become the hero’s of Putins war by ending the war. This scam war has caused massive innocent deaths on both sides, shortages of food and necessities for both sides, the devaluation of the ruble, the loss of business and international business status, the loss of international trust of Russia and nothing to go home to in Russia because this scam war bankrupt the country. Putin is the enemy, not the Russian people, not Ukrainians. Many innocent Russians living in Ukraine are dying too. They are killing their own for the sole purpose of quenching Putins quest for power!

  2. 🎥”BIDEN: The Worst ‘President’ We’ve Ever Had!”

  3. So Ukraine was Neo Nazi militia mecca prior to this where are all those people who were at their festivals? There are several documentaries on YT about them yet they are mia now🤔

  4. Government laundering money again, ripping off the taxpayers, Ukraine needs to surrender, they have no chance. Biden going to get us nuked.

  5. LETS GO DONALD TRUMP
    TRUMP 2024
    TRUMP FOR AMERICANS
    AMERICANS FOR TRUMP 🚂

  6. Common sense needs to prevail over emotional outbursts.

  7. I want to recommend you all to Dr osaba on YouTube who cured my help herpes disease and he also cured my friend from HIV disease you can reach out to him through his YouTube channel

  8. I don't fully understand the difference between sending jets, and continuing to send the arms and misses we are sending now. We aren't going to fly them over Ukraine, just let Poland make them available. I think it's time to go dark publicly on the subject and continue what we need to do quietly.

  9. we don't need to get involved anymore than what we are doing…paying my entire check on gas

  10. Innocent are being massacred by PUTIN….. WHY?????

  11. Get a bicycle or horse 🐎, people stop complaining and do something to help youself, invent something super naturally inexpensive for the people and the car industry will be " just there".

  12. Ok help ukraine i am all for that. But only after we help our own here at home.
    Low income people cant even buy food any more. People on fixed income like ss ssdi rrb. Vets they need help first

  13. Why dont they stop networks like Fox New from spreading there Russian propaganda. If we are helping one country from a tyrant, stop the promoting of that tyrant.

  14. Give Ukrainian long range missile to attack Moscow !!!!!

  15. Don't the American citizens have a say in all this b***** the only one who's suffering from your b***** it's our country but hey what's new

  16. Amen ! Send Zelensky What ever he needs

  17. oh were not just transferring milions and billions to military industrial complex….. hmmmmm
    warmongers!!!!!! screw ukraine…. neo nazi state!!!! dont start ww3!!

  18. I'm an American citizen. Can I have .001% of that 1.2billion?

  19. STOP. AIDING. THIS. COUNTRY. IT. IS. NOT. OUR. PROBLEM.
    If any of us had problems w Russia or any other eastern country do y’all think Ukraine would run to our AID? NO. We can’t afford this. Why is nobody questioning the insane amount of money literally being given away (because Ukraine is obviously not going to be able to ever repay this) meanwhile we have so many financial issues already in our own country? Take care of your citizens first before taking care of an already dying country. Feel bad for the Ukrainians, seriously sucks what’s going on but getting involved like we are will only lead to more blood-shed.

  20. The only thing stopping anyone and any country helping Ucraine are because everyone are affraid of NUCLAIR weapon of Russia. They all forget that that misrable man called putin and the russians will suffer like anyone else on earth if he uses them. He is a disgusting human.

  21. What about Americans at home , inflation and raising gas ?

  22. The same people and media that gave us the Iraq and Libya including Syria war are at it again and they will not send there own family to the front line

  23. Putin is an evil man this may be the beginning of nuclear war idk but I'm terrified

  24. https://youtu.be/DUG-sGmdiEg Russia protected HERO ERIC SNOWDEN
    Plus they kinder to Blacks than racist Ukraine

  25. Give them everything! We made a promise to protect them and we broke it!

  26. Can't Poland send those planes via refugee transport?? Don't fly em drive em.. Probably not now but maybe days ago

  27. That's the problem. They are Lawmakers and not Lawgivers.

    That's why the situation in Ukraine is so miserable right now.
