Facts be facts. March’s inflation figures are the highest since Jimmy Carter was in the White House. The “good news” is that gas prices dropped 10 cents to only $4.27 a gallon. Thank you Joe, you did this, right? Democrats have crowed about Biden extending Obamacare, repealing Title 42, that has supercharged illegal entries through our southern border, his tax-and-spend fantasy …

The final months of World War II was a turbulent and fraught time for the West’s relationship with the Soviet Union. Stalin, having spent millions of lives driving back the Nazis, while staying out of the Pacific and China theaters, was keen to swallow as much buffer territory as possible. Churchill and Roosevelt knew this, …

“My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you I just signed legislation which outlaws Russia forever,” President Ronald Reagan famously said. “The bombing begins in five minutes.” He said it in 1984 during a sound test on a hot mic.

UKRAINE: This is NATO’s War Plan, Not Putin’s Failure | Steve Berman


Opinion Contributor

When Russia’s “little green men” took over Crimea in 2014 with little more than a demonstration by Ukrainian forces, serious people took notice.

Ordinary Russians aren’t getting the message the world is trying to send. Instead, they’re getting a full dose of Vladimir Putin’s propaganda and disinformation machine. Without access to the “free press” outside their spoon-fed “federal channels” they are being fed the Kremlin’s line, and getting prepped for a massive purge the likes of which have not …

Ukraine is beating Russia. Improbable as that outcome seemed just a few weeks ago, it appears that not only will the Russians not achieve their military and political goals, but also that Ukraine is fully capable of winning the war solo.
