Yesterday, I dismantled the claim that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was justified by NATO expansion. Today, let’s tackle another major propaganda line: the idea that Ukraine needed to be “de-Nazified.” This claim is not just misleading—it’s a deliberate distortion of history designed to justify a war of aggression. The reality? Ukraine is not a Nazi-controlled…
Did NATO Break a Promise? Debunking a Popular Excuse for Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
Lately, a strange trend has emerged among certain so-called “conservatives” who are bending over backward to justify Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Now, being skeptical of U.S. foreign policy is fair—we’ve certainly had our share of misadventures—but that doesn’t mean we should start parroting Kremlin propaganda like useful idiots. The three main arguments these pseudo-conservatives push…
Trump’s Ukraine Gambit: Siding with the Bully, Abandoning the Victim
In a move that has left Ukraine scrambling and Putin smirking, President Trump has ordered a "pause" on all U.S. military aid to Ukraine. This decision, made after a tense meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is yet another signal that Trump is more interested in forcing Ukraine to capitulate than in standing up to…
Why Ukraine Still Matters
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived in Washington last week with high hopes. He was expecting tough conversations, yes, but also the reinforcement of an alliance that has been critical to Ukraine’s survival. The centerpiece of his visit was supposed to be a minerals deal—one that would give the U.S. a tangible economic stake in Ukraine’s…
Trump, Zelenskyy, and the Weight of War
Yesterday’s White House meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was a high-stakes diplomatic encounter that revealed much about where both leaders—and their respective nations—stand on the war in Ukraine. What was meant to be a discussion on peace and cooperation quickly became a tense and sometimes awkward exchange, as Trump questioned Ukraine’s…
Trump’s Idiotic Embrace of Russian Propaganda on Ukraine
President Trump’s latest attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a "dictator" is not just false—it plays directly into Russian propaganda. Worse yet, his reckless rhetoric risks further emboldening Vladimir Putin, the actual dictator in this scenario. The facts of this war are clear: Russia, without provocation, launched a brutal invasion of Ukraine in 2022.…
U.S.-Russia Peace Talks in Saudi Arabia: Pursuing Peace
The upcoming U.S.-Russia peace talks in Saudi Arabia mark a dramatic shift in America’s approach to the war in Ukraine. For the first time since Moscow’s full-scale invasion nearly three years ago, senior American and Russian officials will sit down for direct negotiations on ending the conflict. Yet, Ukraine has not been invited, and many…
Ukraine, Sovereignty, and America’s Role
Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s recent meeting with U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance at the Munich Security Conference revealed several key points about the ongoing war in Ukraine, America’s role, and the deepening divide between European and American approaches to the conflict. The demand for security guarantees before any negotiations with Vladimir Putin underscores both Ukraine’s vulnerability and…
Trump, Putin, and Ukraine: A Hard Line Is the Only Line
President Trump’s recent diplomatic outreach to both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky has ignited fierce debate. On one hand, peace is always preferable to war, and bringing the Russia-Ukraine conflict to an end is a worthy goal. On the other hand, peace must not come at the cost of rewarding Putin for his unprovoked aggression.…
The Path to Ending the Ukraine War – Leadership, Sovereignty, and Swift Action
As an independent Christian conservative, I believe any discussion of the war between Russia and Ukraine must start with a fundamental truth: Russia is the aggressor. They invaded Ukraine, violating its territorial sovereignty, and the bloodshed we’ve seen since 2022 is entirely a result of that choice. This isn’t about murky geopolitics or pointing fingers…
